Exercise Guide

 Don't just test. Test Smart™

Exercise your right to feet good. 

When you're active, your body uses up blood sugar. So you want to keep your blood sugar levels from dropping too low.* That's why it makes sense to test before, during, and 2 hours after exercise.

If your result is less than 100 mg/dL, eat at least one carbohydrate choice (15 grams of carbohydrate--for example, a glass of milk) before exercising.

If your result is over 250 mg/dL, take a rest, because, in this situation, exercising might make your blood sugar go even higher

If you are feeling out of sorts during exercise, consider testing. You may need a snack. Because a delayed result may occur, it may be a good idea to test before you go to bed on days that you exercise.

*Low blood sugar as a result of exercise is not a risk for every person with diabetes.

OneTouch® changes everything.

Exercise is a great solution if your blood sugar level is a little high.  And did you know that regular exercise may lessen the amount of medication you need?

EXERCISE
Stay on top of lingering lows

Delayed low result 2 hours after exercise:  60 mg/dL		Target result 2 hours after exercise: 98 mg/dL
When Kelly's husband met her at the mall he noticed that she was confused and forgetful.	He asked a few questions and found out that she had tested after working out at the gym and her levels had been in range.  He wondered if she was experiencing a delayed response to her workout.	He suggested another test since it had been 2 hours since she exercised.  Kelly tested and got a low result.  She drank some juice.	Soon she was feeling like her old self.

EXERCISE
Need a fill-up between stops?

Result before exercise:  140 mg/dL		Low result 1 hour later: 72 mg/dL
Rodney tested before he and his son got on their bikes.  They rode through a park and ran into some friends who were playing touch football.	Rodney joined in and after a while the guys started kidding him about missing passes.  He was feeling a little shaky.	He tested again and saw he was a little low.*	He drank some juice and got his game--and his blood sugar--back for the rest of the afternoon.

*In this situation, test first if you are alert enough to do so.
