Insulin-sensitive Obesity: Prospective and Interventional Studies
In Brief
An observational study for Insulin Sensitivity/Resistance and Obesity. Completed, enrolled 57 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
People who are overweight and/or obese are at risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. However, research has shown that some overweight and/or obese individuals remain insulin-sensitive and metabolically healthy despite their unhealthy body weight. The investigators hypothesise that overweight and/or obese people who were deemed insulin-sensitive in previous studies will maintain their insulin sensitivity and metabolic health over time. The investigators also hypothesise that the preservation of insulin sensitivity will be accompanied by key metabolic health markers.
