Scientists test if lowering insulin can help fatty livers
NCT ID NCT05724134
Summary
This small, early-stage study aimed to understand how lowering insulin levels affects blood sugar in people at risk for fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes. Eighteen participants with obesity and insulin resistance underwent two specialized medical procedures where their natural insulin production was temporarily replaced. Researchers carefully measured blood sugar and other markers while adjusting insulin levels to see how the body responded.
