Particularly if you’re pre-diabetic or have diabetes, walking after a meal can be a good choice. “Exercising after a meal really does help in aiding what we call digestion,” says Richardson.
The American Diabetes Association also recommends at least 30 minutes of daily walking to lower blood sugar levels and reduce your risk of type 2 diabetes. Increase low-impact movement.
In overweight individuals, 7–9 months of low-intensity exercise (walking ~19 km per week at 40–55% VO2peak) significantly increased cardiorespiratory fitness compared to sedentary individuals. Together these data indicate that exercise interventions decrease the risk or severity of CVD in subjects who are lean, obese, or have type 2 diabetes.

Type 3 diabetes is a proposed pathological linkage between Alzheimer's disease and certain features of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. [1] Specifically, the term refers to a set of common biochemical and metabolic features seen in the brain in Alzheimer's disease, and in other tissues in diabetes; [1] [2] it may thus be considered a "brain-specific type of diabetes."
