Exercise, Gut Health, and Type 2 Diabetes Study
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how exercise affects gut bacteria in people with type 2 diabetes. It may help explain why physical activity improves diabetes control.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 45 and 65 years old

This study tests how an oral nutritional supplement affects the gut microbiome in people with type 2 diabetes. It uses a special capsule (SIMBA) to collect samples, and researchers want to see if the supplement leads to changes in your gut bacteria.
This study looks at how low physical activity, insulin resistance in small blood vessels, and cardiorespiratory fitness connect to diabetes and blood sugar control. You may be eligible if you are generally sedentary and fit within the weight range, and if you do not have certain heart, lung, nerve, or medication factors.
This study looks at how exercise and protein work together in people aged 65 and older, either with or without type 2 diabetes. You will be asked to exercise and may receive a protein supplement to see how your body uses protein.
