if you're exercising you're becoming more insulin sensitive you're increasing more glucose transporters on your muscle that's causing glucose to go in easier, right?
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
and that's one of the reasons why exercise is so good for maintaining um glucose homeostasis it's not only the total amount of muscle but especially the way you use the muscle
And increase the transport for many things, including glucose transporters. And so one of the reasons why exercise is therapeutic in the treatment of high blood sugar or diabetes, you know, there's lots of reasons, but one of the reasons is you increase glucose transport capacity on the cell membrane.
