A 2-minute walking break could help you balance your blood sugar…
Sounds odd, but there´s been a growing paradigm shift in the workplace in the last few years, that 
values working smarter over working harder. It´s become more accepted that an industrious work ethic isn´t always beneficial. Complacency, fatigue, burnout and lack of initiative can override maximum effort in the progression of a business or career…So, in work, taking a step back and thinking about the best way to go about achieving your goals can be very beneficial…And when it comes to your health, this less industrious approach can be a giant step in the right direction!In fact, a review of seven studies, published in the journal Sports Medicine, found that just two to five minutes of light walking, or standing, can make all the difference to managing your blood sugar.Keep reading to find out more below…
Healthier blood sugar couldn’t get easier than this one simple step!
With just three small capsules of FSPNutritionals’ Complete Gluco-Control, you’re getting…
• Berberine – the secret key to the Metabolic Master Switch that regulates blood sugar at cellular level!
• Mulberry Leaf Extract – the sugar ‘sponge’ nutrient that reduces the entry of glucose levels into the blood stream!
• Chromium – the mineral that ushers sugar into your cells and out of your blood stream!
• Alpha-Lipoic Acid – the powerhouse in every single cell in your body which clears the way for insulin to do its job properly!
• Biotin – the blood sugar vitamin that converts glucose into a form your cells can use for energy!
• Magnesium – the blood sugar essential mineral deficient in people with insulin resistance!
• Ginger – the anti-inflammatory wonder that prevents high blood sugar levels.
This could mean no more dozing off in front of the TV… or raiding the fridge for a midnight snack… or constantly worrying about your sugar level counts…
2-minute walking break around the block between tasks can help clear your mind and balance your blood sugar…
The study´s objective was to ascertain the impact of sitting, standing and walking, on insulin and blood sugar levels in the body…
The researchers found that standing every 20-30 minutes for between just two to five minutes improved blood sugar levels, but not insulin levels, compared to people who kept sitting…
But when the participants went for a short walk after eating, their blood sugar levels remained more stable (they rose and fell more gradually), and their insulin levels were more stable than when they either stood or sat for prolonged periods.
Blood sugar spikes increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease, so these results are important – especially because they require such little effort, compared to the perception that you need to workout intensely for longer…
This was especially effective straight after a meal
And what better way to keep healthy when you can use the time to clear your mind or use it to think about your next task – allowing you that space to grow…

Improved insulin and blood sugar levels take a little planning…
So it may take some planning at the start to get going, but once you´ve formed the habit, it will just become second nature…
Think about how to move a little more…
* Set your alarm for every 20-30 minutes and take a walk around your home or office (plan an easy route so you enjoy it rather than give it up after the first day). This is perfect to take a quick break (remember you just need 2 minutes each time)…
* Park the car a little further so you can walk to the shops, school, office or wherever you need to go, take the stairs instead of the lift…
* Make your housework more meaningful – do a little sweeping or mopping around the house daily, stand when you´re doing the laundry, dance a little when you´re cooking – you get it, just move a bit more…
The real paradigm shift is turning a sedentary life into a more active, healthier and happier one!
How to activate the Metabolic Master Switch in your cells for more balanced blood sugar
There’s a natural compound found in a number of plants that’s been used for centuries in Chinese Medicine to help treat a variety of ailments.
It has the ability to help activate an enzyme in cells called the Metabolic Master Switch. When this happens, your body can switch specific genes on and off to regulate your metabolism – at cellular level!
The results: Lower blood sugar levels, improved insulin sensitivity in cells, muscles use more glucose for energy, reduced sugar production in the liver and a delayed breakdown of carbohydrates in the digestive tract.
