This study looks at how losing weight affects the fat that sits inside your muscles (called intermuscular fat). It might help people with overweight to better understand how weight loss can improve muscle health.
This study looks at how fat cells in the belly release fat. Researchers want to learn more about fat breakdown in people who are overweight or obese. If you join, you may get a drug that helps them measure fat activity.
This study looks at how your metabolism (how your body uses energy and controls blood sugar/fats) changes during weight loss, comparing weight loss alone versus weight loss plus exercise. It may help researchers understand what body changes happen with different approaches and why.
This study looks at tiny particles released from fat tissue in people with and without obesity. It aims to understand differences that might help explain obesity-related health problems.
This study looks at how your body's metabolism responds to lifestyle changes like diet or exercise. If you are an adult with obesity (BMI over 30) and no major health issues, you may be able to join a program that helps you understand your body's energy use.
