Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Investigation 1 and 3: An oral glucose tolerance test diagnostic of impaired glucose tolerance as defined by the WHO as a fasting plasma glucose\<7.0mmol/l and a 2-h plasma glucose ≥7.8 and \<11.1mmol/l and/or impaired fasting glucose, defined by the American Diabetes Association as a fasting plasma glucose of \>5.6 and \<6.9mmol/L.
  • Investigation 2: An oral glucose tolerance test diagnostic of impaired glucose tolerance as defined by the WHO as a fasting plasma glucose\<7.0mmol/l and a 2-h plasma glucose ≥7.8 and \<11.1mmol/l. For investigation 2, people with only IFG will be excluded.
  • All investigations:
  • Adults over 18 years of age

At this level of overweight and obesity there is an increase in the risk of type 2 diabetes. Above 40 kg/m2 there appears to be decreased success with lifestyle advice.
  • The volunteers should have given full written consent.
  • Have had a stable body weight for the last 6 months with no more than a 5% change in body weight over 6 months.
