Physical activity and type 2 diabetes
19 July 2016
We are a research group funded by Diabetes UK inviting individuals with and without a relative who has type 2 diabetes to take part in our research.
In brief, we require healthy, physically active, males and females aged 18-60 years. Most notably, smokers and/or individuals with type 1 or 2 diabetes themselves or a history of cardiovascular, kidney, respiratory or endocrine disease(s) are not eligible for participation.
Participants would be required to undergo a series of measurements including assessment of physical fitness, body composition (i.e. body fat, muscle mass), blood sugar control and blood vessel health.
