Study: Diabetics urged to exercise, but many don't

Fewer than 40% of people with Type 2 diabetes get exercise, despite doctors' common advice to them to get active, according to a new study. A previous study found that nearly three-quarters of diabetics said their doctors advised them to exercise, and research released today shows those with the strongest warnings to get exercise were those least likely to comply.
