Picture
WHY HAVE WE CREATED THIS CLASS? It is very common for those individuals with type 2 diabetes to also be affected by non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Physical exercise has been shown to have positive effects in both diabetes and NAFLD related therapeutic intervention strategies. This program designed by Nadia Philipenko BSc Kin, MPT is specifically for people with diabetes and/or NAFLD, and incorporates both aerobic and resistance training exercise.

Program goals: lose weight, build exercise independence and confidence, and promote active living.
WHAT IS DIABETES? Diabetes is a chronic condition that occurs when the body loses its ability to produce or properly use insulin. Insulin is a hormone that our body uses to control sugar levels in the blood. Over 3 million Canadians have been diagnosed with diabetes, and it is estimated that 90% of these Canadians have Type 2 Diabetes, a metabolic disorder in which the pancreas does not regulate insulin properly.
 
WHAT IS NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE (NAFLD)? NAFLD is the most common liver disease in Canada, affecting over 7 million Canadians. It is a condition in which fat accumulates in the liver causing inflammation which can eventually progress and lead to liver failure.
 
Details:
Tuesday & Thursday (2 sessions per week)
  • 60 minute small group exercise sessions two times per week for 8 weeks (16 classes)
