Effect of 2-Week Nightly Moderate Hypoxia on Oral Glucose Tolerance in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Hypoxico Altitude Training Systems for Type 2 Diabetes. Completed, enrolled 8 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if 2 weeks of nightly exposure (7-12 hours per night) to moderate hypoxia (\~2,400 meters or 7,500 feet) improves glucose metabolism in people with type 2 diabetes.
