Physiological Basis for the Use of Physical Activity in Conditions of Disorders of Carbohydrate and Lipid Metabolism

Currently, a very common variant of carbohydrate metabolism in the modern world is type I diabetes. Of the diseases associated with lipid disorders, obesity is the most common on the planet. The most effective means of physical rehabilitation in the combination of diabetes mellitus and obesity is the muscular load of moderate intensity, which involves medium and large muscles with a significant number of repetitions. During such work, per unit of time, the body energy expenditure is small, however, due to the long exercise time, the total energy consumption is significant. Aerobic mode of work contributes to the adequate absorption of glucose from the blood and its complete combustion in the muscles with a decrease in the sugar content in the blood. In addition, against the background of regular physical exertion in the body of patients, the activity of mobilization and utilization of lipid sources for energy supply of the contractile function of muscles increases. With mild and moderate severity of the disease, regular endurance training increases the overall effectiveness of the treatment of diabetes and obesity, stabilizes blood glucose and body weight, which results in a reduction in the dose of insulin injected.
