Purpose Postprandial hyperglycemia and glycemic oscillations have been associated with
increased oxidative stress. We sought to investigate the effect of two walking exercise
protocols performed during lunchtime on glycemic control and oxidative stress in type 2
diabetic (T2D) patients. Methods Nine T2D patients participated in three randomized
crossover trials; a control trial (Con), with participants having a standard lunch followed by
their normal daily activities and two exercise trials (ContEx and Splitex). In ContEx, subjects …
