Why Walking Helps T1D (And It’s Not Just Steps)

It’s not just the step count — it’s what walking actually does inside our bodies. Today we’re breaking down how walking helps insulin work better and lowers blood sugars (sometimes better than a correction dose).

📌 Today, We’re Covering:
✔️ How even a short walk can act like a unit of insulin
✔️ Why movement helps glucose get into our cells
✔️ What it means to “walk it down” with stubborn highs

Walking is one of the most underrated blood sugar tools we’ve got — and it’s totally free.
