| Abstract | Physical activity is a keystone of a healthy lifestyle as well as of management of patients with type 1 diabetes. The risk of exercise-induced hypoglycemia, however, is a great challenge for these patients. The glycemic response to exercise depends upon several factors concerning the patient him/herself (eg, therapy, glycemic control, training level) and the characteristics of the exercise performed. Only in-depth knowledge of these factors will allow to develop individualized strategies minimizing the risk of hypoglycemia. The main factors affecting the exercise-induced hypoglycemia in patients with T1D have been analyzed, including the effects of insulin concentration. A model is discussed, which has the potential to become the basis for providing patients with individualized suggestions to keep constant glucose levels on each exercise occasion. |
