Abstract
Epidemiologic studies suggest that a high level of physical activity would protect against coronary heart disease. There is accumulating evidence that habitual physical training may reduce some risk factors of atherosclerosis in both non-diabetic and in diabetic subjects. In this article the relationship of exercise to cardiovascular risk factors in diabetic patients is reviewed.
