First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study looks at how gut bacteria affect the body's response to exercise, especially insulin use, in overweight or obese men aged 18 to 40. Participants will exercise 5 days a week for 12 weeks and take a daily gut health supplement called sodium butyrate for the last 4 weeks. Researchers will collect blood and stool samples to see if the supplement can improve insulin sensitivity in those who don't respond well to exercise alone.
