Key result
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves postprandial glucose control in individuals with or at risk for type 2 diabetes, potentially aiding in the prevention of cardiovascular complications.
Why the study?
Does high-intensity interval training (HIIT) improve postprandial hyperglycemia in individuals with, or at risk for, type 2 diabetes?
Does high-intensity interval training (HIIT) improve postprandial hyperglycemia in individuals with, or at risk for, type 2 diabetes?
HIIT may serve as an effective and time-efficient strategy to improve postprandial glucose control and reduce cardiovascular risk in patients with or at risk for type 2 diabetes.
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has garnered attention in recent years as a time-efficient exercise option for improving cardiovascular and metabolic health. New research demonstrates that HIIT may be particularly effective for improving postprandial hyperglycemia in individuals with, or at risk for, type 2 diabetes (T2D). These findings have clinical relevance because elevated postprandial hyperglycemia is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This article summarizes the latest evidence demonstrating that HIIT can improve postprandial glucose control to highlight the potential application of HIIT in the prevention and management of T2D and associated cardiovascular complications.

Little et al. (2014) conducted a review in Type 2 diabetes or at risk for type 2 diabetes. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) was evaluated on Postprandial hyperglycemia. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) improves postprandial glucose control in individuals with or at risk for type 2 diabetes, potentially aiding in the prevention of cardiovascular complications.
