Abstract
PURPOSE There is scant published research regarding nutrition and insulin strategies for athletic performance in collegiate distance runners with type 1 diabetes mellitus (CDRT1). Acute carbohydrate supplementation (CHOsup) and insulin reduction used to minimize hypoglycemia during exercise may result in deteriorated glycemic control post exercise in CDRT1. The present case study of a CDRT1 investigated outcomes associated with a moderate-carbohydrate (ModCHO) diet and 24 h insulin adjustment during recovery phases for improved glycemic control and reduced use of acute strategies. METHODS During an 8-day period, a female CDRT1 followed a ModCHO (~4 g/kg/day) nutrition program. Recovery phase adjustments to insulin doses were made using an equation developed to estimate reduced insulin needs post exercise, as a function of exercise intensity and duration. Daily training was performed in the fasted state at 6:00 a.m. and included additional exercise strategies to reduce glycemic variability when needed. Daily blood glucose time-in-range (TIR) and use of CHOsup were assessed. Athlete well-being was determined using the Student-Athlete Well-Being Scale (SAWS)TM at baseline, and days 1, 3, and 7. RESULTS Throughout the 8-day period, mean TIR increased (77% versus < 50%) and the magnitude of glycemic excursions decreased (~3.8-15 versus ~3.0-26 mmol/L) relative to a prior comparison period. Minimal pre-exercise CHOsup was employed and CHOsup during exercise was not required. Additionally, the athlete achieved a new lifetime best in the 5000 m run and maintained positive well-being. CONCLUSION The present case study provides examples of recovery phase strategies (i.e., ModCHO diet and 24 h insulin adjustments) that may support glycemic control and athletic performance in CDRT1 and provides potential considerations for nutrition and insulin strategies for use by athletes and coaches.

Post-Exercise Protein Intake May Reduce Time in Hypoglycemia Following Moderate-Intensity Continuous Exercise among Adults with Type 1 Diabetes. Nutrients 2023; 15:4268. [PMID: 37836552 PMCID: PMC10574378 DOI: 10.3390/nu15194268] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Little is known about the role of post-exercise protein intake on post-exercise glycemia. Secondary analyses were conducted to evaluate the role of post-exercise protein intake on post-exercise glycemia using data from an exercise pilot study. Adults with T1D (n = 11), with an average age of 33.0 ± 11.4 years and BMI of 25.1 ± 3.4, participated in isoenergetic sessions of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT). Participants completed food records on the days of exercise and provided continuous glucose monitoring data throughout the study, from which time in range (TIR, 70-180 mg/dL), time above range (TAR, >180 mg/dL), and time below range (TBR, <70 mg/dL) were calculated from exercise cessation until the following morning. Mixed effects regression models, adjusted for carbohydrate intake, diabetes duration, and lean mass, assessed the relationship between post-exercise protein intake on TIR, TAR, and TBR following exercise. No association was observed between protein intake and TIR, TAR, or TBR (p-values ≥ 0.07); however, a borderline significant reduction of -1.9% (95% CI: -3.9%, 0.0%; p = 0.05) TBR per 20 g protein was observed following MICT in analyses stratified by exercise mode. Increasing post-exercise protein intake may be a promising strategy to mitigate the risk of hypoglycemia following MICT.

The effect of timing of remotely supervised exercise on glucose control in people with type 1 diabetes during Ramadan: A randomised crossover study. Diabetes Metab Syndr 2023; 17:102845. [PMID: 37591044 DOI: 10.1016/j.dsx.2023.102845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023]
Abstract
AIM The aim of the current study was to compare glucose responses when remotely supervised exercise was performed before or after breaking the fast, during Ramadan, in people with type 1 diabetes. METHODS People with type 1 diabetes were recruited to this randomised cross over design study, which took place in Kuwait during Ramadan in 2021-2022. Interstitial glucose was measured using continuous glucose monitors during a baseline week of normal activity and during weeks where remotely supervised exercise was performed, three times per week, either before (afternoon) or after (evening) breaking the fast, in a randomised crossover design. Exercise involved resistance and aerobic exercise and was supervised during a video call. RESULTS Thirty-two participants were recruited to the study (age 34(9) years and BMI 26(4)kg/m2). Mean interstitial glucose levels were lower on exercise days, compared to equivalent days in the baseline week, during both afternoon (8.6(1.8) mmol/L vs 9.1(1.4) mmol/L, p = 0.035) and evening (8.7(1.8) mmol/L vs 9.6(1.8) mmol/L, p < 0.001) exercise weeks. Mean glucose levels were lower the day after exercise, relative to both baseline (p < 0.001) and exercise (p = 0.011) days, in the evening exercise week only. CONCLUSIONS Remotely supervised exercise performed during Ramadan can safely reduce interstitial glucose levels and may be of greater benefit when performed in the evening, further work is required to confirm this in a larger trial.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with hyperglycaemia-induced hypoxia and inflammation. This study assessed the effects of a single bout of high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) on glycaemia (BG) and serum level of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and an essential mediator of adaptive response to hypoxia in T1D patients. The macronutrient intake was also evaluated. Nine patients suffering from T1D for about 12 years and nine healthy individuals (CG) were enrolled and completed one session of HIIE at the intensity of 120% lactate threshold with a duration of 4 × 5 min intermittent with 5 min rests after each bout of exercise. Capillary and venous blood were withdrawn at rest, immediately after and at 24 h post-HIIE for analysis of BG, hypoxia-inducible factor alpha (HIF-1α), tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and vascular-endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Pre-exercise BG was significantly higher in the T1D patients compared to the CG (p = 0.043). HIIE led to a significant decline in T1D patients' BG (p = 0.027) and a tendency for a lower BG at 24 h post-HIIE vs. pre-HIIE. HIF-1α was significantly elevated in the T1D patients compared to CG and there was a trend for HIF-1α to decline, and for VEGF and TNF-α to increase in response to HIIE in the T1D group. Both groups consumed more and less than the recommended amounts of protein and fat, respectively. In the T1D group, a tendency for a higher digestible carbohydrate intake and more frequent hyperglycaemic episodes on the day after HIIE were observed. HIIE was effective in reducing T1D patients' glycaemia and improving short-term glycaemic control. HIIE has the potential to improve adaptive response to hypoxia by elevating the serum level of VEGF. Patients' diet and level of physical activity should be screened on a regular basis, and they should be educated on the glycaemic effects of digestible carbohydrates.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Exercise and diet are among the most studied behaviors that can affect blood glucose concentrations. Despite multiple studies examining these interventions in different populations and contexts, inconsistencies across studies have led to variable expectations. The purpose of this review is to more specifically examine how the timing of when exercise is performed in relation to meals can modify changes in glucose concentrations or insulin sensitivity. When possible, studies in type 2 diabetes are emphasized, but recent research in type 1 diabetes, obesity, and athletes is also considered. RECENT FINDINGS The effect of a single bout of exercise performed after an overnight fast is often comparable to that of postprandial exercise on 24 h mean glucose concentrations. However, there is recent evidence to suggest that in some situations, but not all, longer term metabolic adaptations can be more favorable when exercise is regularly performed in the fasted state. SUMMARY Exercise after an overnight fast can have different effects on glucose metabolism compared with postprandial exercise. The shorter term and longer term changes following fasting exercise can be relevant to those who are seeking greater glucoregulatory benefit from their exercise sessions, such as people with diabetes.

Abstract
People with type 1 diabetes experience challenges in managing blood glucose around exercise. Previous studies have examined glycaemic responses to different exercise modalities but paid little attention to participants' prandial state, although this is an important consideration and will enhance our understanding of the effects of exercise in order to improve blood glucose management around activity. This review summarises available data on the glycaemic effects of postprandial exercise (i.e. exercise within 2 h after a meal) in people with type 1 diabetes. Using a search strategy on electronic databases, literature was screened until November 2022 to identify clinical trials evaluating acute (during exercise), subacute (≤2 h after exercise) and late (>2 h to ≤24 h after exercise) effects of postprandial exercise in adults with type 1 diabetes. Studies were systematically organised and assessed by exercise modality: (1) walking exercise (WALK); (2) continuous exercise of moderate intensity (CONT MOD); (3) continuous exercise of high intensity (CONT HIGH); and (4) interval training (intermittent high-intensity exercise [IHE] or high-intensity interval training [HIIT]). Primary outcomes were blood glucose change and hypoglycaemia occurrence during and after exercise. All study details and results per outcome were listed in an evidence table. Twenty eligible articles were included: two included WALK sessions, eight included CONT MOD, seven included CONT HIGH, three included IHE and two included HIIT. All exercise modalities caused consistent acute glycaemic declines, with the largest effect size for CONT HIGH and the smallest for HIIT, depending on the duration and intensity of the exercise bout. Pre-exercise mealtime insulin reductions created higher starting blood glucose levels, thereby protecting against hypoglycaemia, in spite of similar declines in blood glucose during activity between the different insulin reduction strategies. Nocturnal hypoglycaemia occurred after higher intensity postprandial exercise, a risk that could be diminished by a post-exercise snack with concomitant bolus insulin reduction. Research on the optimal timing of postprandial exercise is inconclusive. In summary, individuals with type 1 diabetes exercising postprandially should substantially reduce insulin with the pre-exercise meal to avoid exercise-induced hypoglycaemia, with the magnitude of the reduction depending on the exercise duration and intensity. Importantly, pre-exercise blood glucose and timing of exercise should be considered to avoid hyperglycaemia around exercise. To protect against late-onset hypoglycaemia, a post-exercise meal with insulin adjustments might be advisable, especially for exercise in the evening or with a high-intensity component.

Abstract
The prevalence of overweight and obesity in young people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) now parallels that of the general population. Excess adiposity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, which is already elevated up to 10-fold in T1D, underscoring a compelling need to address weight management as part of routine T1D care. Sustainable weight management requires both diet and physical activity (PA). Diet and PA approaches must be optimized towards the underlying metabolic and behavioral challenges unique to T1D to support glycemic control throughout the day. Diet strategies for people with T1D need to take into consideration glycemic management, metabolic status, clinical goals, personal preferences, and sociocultural considerations. A major barrier to weight management in this high-risk population is the challenge of integrating regular PA with day-to-day management of T1D. Specifically, exercise poses a substantial challenge due to the increased risk of hypoglycemia and/or hyperglycemia. Indeed, about two-thirds of individuals with T1D do not engage in the recommended amount of PA. Hypoglycemia presents a serious health risk, yet prevention and treatment often necessitates the consumption of additional calories, which may prohibit weight loss over time. Exercising safely is a concern and challenge with weight management and maintaining cardiometabolic health for individuals living with T1D and many healthcare professionals. Thus, a tremendous opportunity exists to improve exercise participation and cardiometabolic outcomes in this population. This article will review dietary strategies, the role of combined PA and diet for weight management, current resources for PA and glucose management, barriers to PA adherence in adults with T1D, as well as findings and lessons learned from the Advancing Care for Type 1 Diabetes and Obesity Network (ACT1ON).

Abstract
Exercise is a cornerstone of diabetes self-care because of its association with many health benefits. Several studies that have explored the best time of day to exercise to inform clinical recommendations have yielded mixed results. For example, for people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, there may be benefits to timing exercise to occur after meals, whereas people with type 1 diabetes may benefit from performing exercise earlier in the day. One common thread is the health benefits of consistent exercise, suggesting that the issue of exercise timing may be secondary to the goal of helping people with diabetes establish an exercise routine that best fits their life.

Abstract
Exercise plays an important role in the management of diabetes and is associated with many benefits such as decreased morbidity and mortality. For people exhibiting signs and symptoms of cardiovascular disease, pre-exercise medical clearance is warranted; however, requiring broad screening requirements can lead to unnecessary barriers to initiating an exercise program. Robust evidence supports the promotion of both aerobic and resistance training, with evidence emerging on the importance of reducing sedentary time. For people with type 1 diabetes, there are special considerations, including hypoglycemia risk and prevention, exercise timing (including prandial status), and differences in glycemic responses based on biological sex.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Exercise-induced hyperglycemia is recognized in type 1 diabetes (T1D) clinical guidelines, but its association with high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE) in acute studies is inconsistent. In this meta-analysis, we examined the available evidence of blood glucose responses to HIIE in adults with T1D. The secondary, aim was to examine predictors of blood glucose responses to HIIE. We hypothesized that there would be no consistent effect on blood glucose from HIIE, unless examined in the context of participant prandial status. METHODS We conducted a literature search using key words related to T1D and HIIE. Studies were required to include at least 6 participants with T1D with a mean age >18 years, involve an HIIE intervention, and contain pre- and postexercise measures of blood glucose. Analyses of extracted data were performed using a general inverse variance statistical method with a random effects model and a weighted multiple regression. RESULTS Nineteen interventions from 15 reports were included in the analysis. A mean overall blood glucose decrease of -1.3 mmol/L (95% confidence interval [CI], -2.3 to -0.2 mmol/L) was found during exercise, albeit with high heterogeneity (I2=84%). When performed after an overnight fast, exercise increased blood glucose by +1.7 mmol/L (95% CI, 0.4 to 3.0 mmol/L), whereas postprandial exercise decreased blood glucose by -2.1 mmol/L (95% CI, -2.8 to -1.4 mmol/L), with a statistically significant difference between groups (p<0.0001). No associations with fitness (p=0.4), sex (p=0.4), age (p=0.9), exercise duration (p=0.9), or interval duration (p=0.2) were found. CONCLUSION The effect of HIIE on blood glucose is inconsistent, but partially explained by prandial status.

Abstract
Sedentary behaviours are ubiquitous in modern society with Western populations spending approximately ∼50% of their waking hours in low levels of energy expenditure. This behaviour is associated with cardiometabolic derangements and increased morbidity and mortality. In individuals living with or at risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D), "breaking up" sedentariness, by interrupting prolonged periods of sitting has been shown to acutely improve glucose control and cardiometabolic risk factors related to diabetes complications. As such, current guidelines recommend interrupting prolonged periods of sitting with short, frequent activity breaks. However, the evidence underpinning these recommendations remain preliminary and are focussed on those with or at risk of developing T2D, with little information regarding whether and how reducing sedentariness may be effective and safe in those living with type 1 diabetes (T1D). In this review, we discuss the potential application of interventions that target prolonged sitting time in T2D within the context of T1D.

The Resistance Exercise in Already Active Diabetic Individuals (READI) Randomised Clinical Trial. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 2022; 108:e63-e75.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the incremental impact of resistance training on HbA1c, fitness, body composition and cardiometabolic risk factors in aerobically-active people with type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The Resistance Exercise in Already-active Diabetic Individuals (READI) trial (NCT00410436) was a four-centre randomized parallel-group trial. After a 5-week run-in period with diabetes management optimization, 131 aerobically-active individuals with type 1 diabetes were randomized to resistance exercise (n = 71, intervention - INT) or control (n = 60, CON) for 22 additional weeks. Both groups maintained their aerobic activities and were provided dietary counselling throughout. Exercise training was three times per week at community-based facilities. The primary outcome was HbA1c, and secondary outcomes included fitness (peak oxygen consumption, muscle strength), body composition (anthropometrics, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, computed tomography) and cardiometabolic risk markers (lipids, apolipoproteins). Assessors were blinded to group allocation. RESULTS There were no significant differences in HbA1c change between INT and CON. Declines in HbA1c [INT: 7.75 ± 0.10% (61.2 ± 1.1 mmol/mol) to 7.55 ± 0.10% (59 ± 1.1 mmol/mol); CON: 7.70 ± 0.11% (60.7 ± 1.2 mmol/mol) to 7.57 ± 0.11% (59.6 ± 1.3 mmol/mol); intergroup difference in change -0.07 [95% CI -0.31, 0.18]. Waist circumference decreased more in INT than CON after six months (p = 0.02). Muscular strength increased more in INT than in CON (p < 0.001). There were no intergroup differences in hypoglycemia or any other variables. CONCLUSIONS Adding resistance training did not impact glycemia, but it increased strength and reduced waist circumference, in aerobically active individuals with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
Recent guidelines suggest that adding anaerobic (high intensity or resistance) activity to an exercise session can prevent blood glucose declines that occur during aerobic exercise in individuals with type 1 diabetes. This theory evolved from earlier study data showing that sustained, anaerobic activity (high intensity cycling) increases blood glucose levels in these participants. However, studies involving protocols where anaerobic (high intensity interval) and aerobic exercise are combined have extremely variable glycaemic outcomes, as do resistance exercise studies. Scrutinising earlier studies will reveal that, in addition to high intensity activity (intervals or weight lifting), these protocols had another common feature: participants were performing exercise after an overnight fast. Based on these findings, and data from recent exercise studies, it can be argued that participant prandial state may be a more dominant factor than exercise intensity where glycaemic changes in individuals with type 1 diabetes are concerned. As such, a reassessment of study outcomes and an update to exercise recommendations for those with type 1 diabetes may be warranted.

Abstract
The scientific literature shows that exercise has many benefits for individuals with type 1 diabetes. Yet, several barriers to exercise in this population exist, such as post-exercise hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia. Several studies suggest that the timing of exercise may be an important factor in preventing exercise-induced hypoglycaemia or hyperglycaemia. However, there is a paucity of evidence solely focused on summarising findings regarding exercise timing and the impact it has on glucose metabolism in type 1 diabetes. This report suggests that resistance or high-intensity interval exercise/training (often known as HIIT) may be best commenced at the time of day when an individual is most likely to experience a hypoglycaemic event (i.e., afternoon/evening) due to the superior blood glucose stability resistance and HIIT exercise provides. Continuous aerobic-based exercise is advised to be performed in the morning due to circadian elevations in blood glucose at this time, thereby providing added protection against a hypoglycaemic episode. Ultimately, the evidence concerning exercise timing and glycaemic control remains at an embryonic stage. Carefully designed investigations of this nexus are required, which could be harnessed to determine the most effective, and possibly safest, time to exercise for those with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
There has been substantial progress in the knowledge of exercise and type 1 diabetes, with the development of guidelines for optimal glucose management. In addition, an increasing number of people living with type 1 diabetes are pushing their physical limits to compete at the highest level of sport. However, the post-exercise recovery routine, particularly with a focus on sporting performance, has received little attention within the scientific literature, with most of the focus being placed on insulin or nutritional adaptations to manage glycaemia before and during the exercise bout. The post-exercise recovery period presents an opportunity for maximising training adaption and recovery, and the clinical management of glycaemia through the rest of the day and overnight. The absence of clear guidance for the post-exercise period means that people with type 1 diabetes should either develop their own recovery strategies on the basis of individual trial and error, or adhere to guidelines that have been developed for people without diabetes. This Review provides an up-to-date consensus on post-exercise recovery and glucose management for individuals living with type 1 diabetes. We aim to: (1) outline the principles and time course of post-exercise recovery, highlighting the implications and challenges for endurance athletes living with type 1 diabetes; (2) provide an overview of potential strategies for post-exercise recovery that could be used by athletes with type 1 diabetes to optimise recovery and adaptation, alongside improved glycaemic monitoring and management; and (3) highlight the potential for technology to ease the burden of managing glycaemia in the post-exercise recovery period.
