Tai Chi is one of the exercise which is highly recommended for people with diabetes and prediabetes.
A 12 week programme of Tai Chi exercise was conducted on 30 patients with Type 2 diabetes and 30 healthy people by a research team. The results showed significant improvement of HbA1c blood test levels from 7.59% to 7.16% for those who practices Tai Chi.
At the same time, the group of patients who exercise with Tai Chi reported an average weight loss of 3kg and waist size down by average of 3cm.
