Thus, it is important to encourage exercise in T1DM as, just like the general population, <strong>the majority of these patients are insufficiently active!<\/strong> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/16888470\">Plotnikoff et al., 2006<\/a>). T1DM is associated with a 10-fold increase in cardiovascular disease compared to non-diabetics (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/12774166\">Laing et al., 2003<\/a>), therefore the benefits of physical activity in promoting cardiorespiratory health are particularly pertinent in this patient group. However, in this population group we must be <strong>mindful of the risks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Following exercise, people with T1DM will need to replenish their energy levels, correct any hyperglycaemia and guard against low blood sugars. This can be extremely difficult for type 1 diabetics (who may be young) that are trying to keep fit and healthy. <strong>Many diabetics worry about hypoglycaemic episodes following exercise<\/strong>. However, with careful monitoring and the <strong>right advice these people can excel in whatever sport they choose<\/strong>. This is highlighted by the numerous examples of high profile elite diabetic athletes. <strong>Diabetes should not prevent people from exercising<\/strong>.
