Postprandial exercise of all modalities is effective, safe and feasible if necessary precautions are taken (i.e., prandial insulin reductions), as exercise lowered maximal PPG excursion and caused a consistent and clinically relevant BG decline during exercise while there was no hypoglycaemia during or shortly after exercise. However, there seem two remaining challenges, being subacute post-exercise hyperglycaemia and nocturnal hypoglycaemia.
