Denmark: A study published in Obesity Journal, "Weight loss maintenance with exercise and liraglutide improves glucose tolerance, glucagon response, and beta cell function”, researched by lead author Simon B K Jensen and colleagues, has concluded that the combination of exercise and liraglutide improves glucose tolerance, beta cell function, and glucagon responses after weight loss.
The present research investigated glucose tolerance, glucagon response, and beta cell function during a 1-year maintenance period with either exercise, the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist liraglutide, or the combination after diet-induced weight loss.
