Insulin resistance (IR), one of the metabolic syndromes, is a condition of failure of cellular normal response to the hormone insulin. Patients with insulin resistance are found to have a significant risk to develop type 2 diabetes(1)(2)(3) and Heart diseases(3).
Regular physical activity has long been found to associate with the prevention of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other chronic diseases, but the regular walking contribution to reduced risk of Insulin Resistance in the younger and older elderly have been lacking, probably due to the effectiveness of modern restrict diet(4) and psychological therapies(5) in syndrome controlling.
A recent study conducted by the Klinika za Endokrinologiju showed that 10 sessions--35 min session of walking on the treadmill, intensity 60.8 +/- 5.7% (VO2)max, frequency 5 times a week), had had a significant influence on the increased aerobic capacity and insulin sensitivity in the tested patients(7), as well as enhanced suppression of hepatic glucose production(8).
In the review of data of 278,989 people (111,524 males and 167,465 females) living in Chiba Prefecture who underwent consecutive medical check-ups in 2008 and 2009, Dr. Ashizawa E and colleagues at the Chiba Prefectural Institute of Public Health said, "In men, the odds of developing MetS were significantly lower for participants who exercised regularly ("walking fast," OR=0.88, 95% CI [0.83-0.93]; and "higher physical activity," 0.85, [0.80-0.90])"(6).
Brisk walking, a popular and readily attainable form of moderate-intensity physical activity, is one of the best suitable for the majority of individuals to improve metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk factors in overweight male subjects, according to a study by the University of Tsukuba(10).
Indeed, reductions in walking reduce insulin sensitivity and insulin signaling through multiple cellular processes in glucose metabolism(9) that induces the risk of Insulin Resistance in the progression of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
