Abstract

Sedentary behaviour is strongly predictive of type 2 diabetes.Western population have high rates of sedentary behaviour and low levels of participation in physical activity (PA) combined with high rates of diagnosed and undiagnosed type 2 diabetes. The study was aimed for comparison of different physical activity levels and intensity on the basis of oral glucose response. Samples were collected from Yamuna sports complex, Karkardooma and Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies. Purposive sampling was done to collect the sample size of 45 subject. The subjects were categorized into 3 categories based on their physical level activity and intensity- 10 samples in low physical activity level, 10 samples in moderate physical activity level and 10 samples in heavy physical activity levels on the basis of exclusion and inclusion criteria.Quantitative analysis of physical activity was done by GPAQ.Anthropometric measurements were done. Blood glucose measurement was done by doing Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) by using glucometer. Blood pressure and heart rate was measured by digital sphygmomanometer. the resullts revealed that, mean and standard deviation of blood glucose by OGTT at 15 minutes, 60 minutes and 120 minutes in sedentary workers was 124.6±8.38, 181.8±9.76 and106.5±5.70 respectively while for moderate workers was 109.6±9.65, 166.2±8.18 and 97.7±7.48 respectively and for heavy workers was 102.2±9.71, 160.9±9.78 and 96.8±6.40 respeectively and the differences were statistically significant (p<0.01). The study concluded that intensity of physical activity defines the blood glucose level of individuals. low intensity activity individual had a higher chance of having higher blood glucose levels.
