Read our Type 2 Diabetes research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers want to understand how exercise affects the amount of glucose your liver makes, especially in people with type 2 diabetes and fatty liver disease. This study will compare how your body responds to exercise versus how a healthy person's body responds. The goal is to learn whether exercise could be a better way to help control blood sugar and reduce fat buildup in the liver.
Many people with type 2 diabetes struggle to control their blood sugar, and fatty liver disease often goes hand-in-hand with diabetes. Doctors want to know if exercise can help reduce the amount of glucose the liver produces, which could improve both blood sugar control and liver health.

You would come to the research clinic for several visits where researchers will measure how your liver produces glucose before and after you exercise. This will likely involve blood tests, imaging scans of your liver, and an exercise session while researchers monitor your body's response. The study team will explain exactly what to expect at each visit and how long the entire study will take.
