Question
Why is blood glucose elevated after exercise in a diabetic?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Strenous exercises such as weightlifting, sprints and competitive sports cause you to produce stress hormones (such as adrenaline). Adrenaline raises blood glucose levels by stimulating your liver to release glucose which is needed for the muscles during work outs.
