The Effect of Whole Body Vibration Training on Insulin Sensitivity in Overweight Adolescents

儿童和青少年的肥胖通常与高胰岛素水平有关。未经治疗的胰岛素水平较高的青少年很可能患上2型糖尿病。节食和锻炼可以改善肥胖，降低高胰岛素水平。运动使肌肉更容易吸收糖分，从而降低胰岛素水平。我们计划观察全身振动训练是否会通过增加肌肉大小来降低胰岛素水平，从而预防2型糖尿病和并发症。

Obesity in children and adolescents is often associated with high insulin levels. Adolescents with high untreated insulin levels are likely to get Type 2 diabetes. Diet and exercise can improve obesity and reduce the high insulin levels. Exercise makes muscle which allows uptake of sugars more easily and this decreases insulin levels. We plan to see if whole body vibration training will lower insulin levels by increasing muscle size; thereby preventing Type 2 diabetes and complications.
