The study tracked participants' risk of Type 2 diabetes over a six-year period.
In a recent study published in the journal, researchers from Harvard found that the time of day individuals choose to participate in physical activity can affect their risk of Type 2 diabetes.
The study looked at 93,095 individuals with a mean age of 62 years and without a history of Type 2 diabetes. Each participant was asked to wear an accelerometer on their wrist for one week to measure their movement and activity. This activity was categorized into three segments: morning activity ; afternoon activity ; and evening activity .
"Exercise, such as vigorous activity or moderate to vigorous activity were protective no matter the time of day," co-author Chirag Patel, an associate professor of Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School, told."I think everyone who is like the individuals we studied could benefit from exercise at all times of the day."
