Because your body is expending energy and in order to do so it must burn glycogen. So walking is a very good exercise to reduce your glucose level. One walk a day will benefit your glucose for about two days. It will up your metabolism also and burn off extra calories. Godloveya.

It triggers a chain reaction of chemicals / hormones that forces your muscles cells to open up and let insulin store the sugar in cells instead of leaving it in your blood.
