A nice summary of our fasted vs. fed exercise debate at the @ADA_DiabetesPro annual meeting. Spoiler: we agreed on most (if not all) arguments for glycemic management, but it was fun to take a stance on one side
figure1.com
To end the debate of fasted vs. postprandial exercise for glycemic management, we spoke with two researchers about their findings.

Excellent ⁦@ADA_DiabetesPro#ADA2023 debate by on fasted vs fed ⁦exercise for glycemia in diabetes. Both have advantages and I can’t decide which is better…. So I do both!well done organizing committee and speakers.
