MedicineNet.com - Diabetes and Exercise from Doctors On Health Audio Newsletter on September 18, 2007 183 views / likes
Diabetics need to check their blood sugar before and after exercising. Diabetics who do not check their blood sugar run the risk of hypoglycemia which can cause dizziness, as well as other complications. Just because you are a diabetic doesn't mean you can't exercise. But it is important to check with your doctor before beginning any exercise program, especially if you are over the age of 35 and run the risk of heart complications.

MedicineNet.com - Exercises for Graceful Aging from Doctors On Health Audio Newsletter on July 13, 2007 177 views / likes
The most important thing is that we remain active as we get older, with aerobic exercise, and also exercises like Tai Chi and yoga, things that improve balance. We want to be physically active in our daily life, and remain active in our heads so we don't feel dependent on other people. Resistance exercise is great for the elderly, as well as balance exercises. Walking activities are important because your heart gets stronger as you continue to practice. Aerobics can even decrease the onset of Alzheimer's so it's working in the brain as well.
