Abstract in brief

  • People with diabetes, especially if poorly controlled or with complications, have a harder time regulating body temperature during heat exposure because they have lower skin blood flow and sweating responses, which can increase their risk of heat-related illnesses.
  • Good glycemic control and staying physically fit can help delay some of the impairments in heat regulation caused by diabetes, but there is still limited research on how heat and cold exposure specifically affect individuals with diabetes.
  • The review also notes that while cold exposure is less studied, it may have therapeutic benefits for type 2 diabetes, and overall, maintaining aerobic fitness might help improve temperature regulation and cardiovascular responses in people with diabetes.]
