05 These Lifestyle Habits May Also Lead to Elevated Blood Sugar
In addition to the mentioned dietary habits, some seemingly unrelated habits in daily life may also contribute to elevated blood sugar. Here are three such habits:
01 Prolonged Sitting Inactivity
A study in a reputable medical journal found that sitting for more than 3 hours a day increases the risk of diabetes by 45%-89%. Prolonged sitting and lack of exercise worsen abnormal sugar and lipid metabolism, affecting insulin's normal function. It is recommended to stand up and move for 5 minutes every 30 minutes of sitting, which helps improve blood sugar levels.
