Walking at a certain speed can lower your risk of Type 2 diabetes.

Walking at least 2.5 miles per hour can cut the risk significantly, according to a new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine.

The report found walking at faster speeds can help lower insulin resistance.

The American Diabetes Association recommends walking for at least 30 minutes daily.

One in 10 Americans have diabetes and more than 90% of them have Type 2, according to the CDC.

Diabetes can be the cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks and stroke.
