Which of the following is a recommended physical activity guideline for individuals with diabetes?

  1. At least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week

  2. At least 100 minutes of high-intensity aerobic activity per week

  3. 30 minutes of walking every day

  4. 1 hour of yoga twice a week

The correct answer is: At least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week

Individuals with diabetes are recommended to engage in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week. This is because regular physical activity can help improve insulin sensitivity, decrease blood sugar levels, and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease in individuals with diabetes. Option B is incorrect because high-intensity aerobic activity may be too strenuous for individuals with diabetes. Option C may be beneficial, but it does not fully meet the recommended guideline of at least 150 minutes per week. Option D may also be beneficial, but it does not focus on aerobic activity, which is important for managing diabetes.
