In Diabetes there is insufficient insulin, a hormone, to convert glucose into glycogen for storage in the body.
Muscles need glucose to function effectively, so by exercising, the glucose travelling around in the blood will be directed straight to the muscles instead of being stored and therefore the blood sugar level will be lowered. Decreasing the intake of carbohydrates will directly lower the levels of glucose readily available and stored glucose, in the form of glycogen, will be converted back to be used as energy causing weight loss.
