Bloomberg Information Report, a new study published in the medical journal Diabetologia found that exercising between noon and midnight can reduce intratin impedance by up to a quarter, which means that afternoon and evening exercise may control blood sugar more than all-day dispersed exercise.

Insulin impedance refers to the inability of muscle, fat and liver cells to respond to insulin and cannot successfully absorb glucose in the blood, resulting in increased blood sugar. When the body develops insulin impedance, it stimulates the pancreas to secrete more insulin to help glucose enter cells, but the pancreas may be overdoing, leading to prediabetes or diabetes.

The new study was conducted by Dr. Jeroen van der Velde of the Center for Medicine at the University of the Netherlands and his colleagues. Using data from Dutch obesity epidemic study, they selected men and women with a BMI of 27 or above, plus a control group, a total of 6,671 people participated, and finally analyzed 775 people with complete monitoring information.

The results found that taking time to perform moderate to intense exercise can reduce liver fat content and insulin impedance.

is 18% and 25% respectively, in the afternoon or evening, which is related to reducing insulin impedance. As for exercise in the morning or even exercise throughout the day, there is no significant difference in intratin impedance.

The researchers concluded: "The results show that exercise time is related to exercise improving insulin sensitivity. Further studies should evaluate whether exercise time is indeed important for controlling type 2 diabetes."
