Yea, and if you are diabetic it helps keeps your blood glucose levels down.  Of course if its type two and you try hard enough and early enough you can control Diabetes with diet and exercise.

I can hardly understand what that techinical language means, LOL. "insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis " and "insulin-stimulated glucose transport phosphorylation" Sorry, I just have to laugh. I assume it means that if you exercise you won't get diabetes so easily....

This has been demonstrated in both short-term and long-term studies with a variety of populations (young, old, obese, athletes, subjects with normal and impaired glucose tolerance, and frank type 2 diabetes). For instance one study observed the effect of exercise in the offspring of parents with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. It showed that exercise increases insulin sensitivity in both normal subjects and the insulin-resistant offspring of diabetic parents secondary to a twofold increase in insulin-stimulated glycogen synthesis in muscle, due to an increase in insulin-stimulated glucose transport phosphorylation. Improvements in glucose disposal with exercise have been shown to be independent of initial body mass and age. These improvements are lost 60-72 hours after the last exercise session and therefore it is better to exercise daily."
