📍 The meta-analytical component of this review found both standing and walking breaks significantly ⬇️ postprandial glucose metabolism
📍 However, walking 🚶🏼♂️ elicited a significantly greater attenuation in postprandial glucose compared to prolonged sitting and standing breaks
📍 However, walking 🚶🏼♂️ elicited a significantly greater attenuation in postprandial glucose compared to prolonged sitting and standing breaks
📍Light-intensity walking 🚶🏼♂️ breaks were also shown to significantly improve postprandial insulin compared to prolonged sitting and standing breaks
📍But intermittent bouts of standing showed no significant effect on postprandial insulin compared to prolonged sitting 🪑

If you research or practice #PhysicalActivity in #MedEd, you may recall a number of “calls to action” issued over the years, “pushing” for medical schools to add physical activity to their overextended curricula—for more, see @CmejEditor editorial below & Part B soon in 12(5)
These calls to action have recommended that new objectives and learning hours be added to the curriculum, when medical educators have stated that they do not have time. Unsurprisingly, few medical schools have sustainably implemented physical activity in their curricula.
