Exercise precision medicine for type 2 diabetes: Targeted benefit or risk?

ABSTRACT: Concurrent exercise and metformin administration may reduce the acute and chronic effects of exercise on glucose metabolism in the patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, several studies suggest that combing metformin and exercise treatment may have neither additive effect nor even cause adverse effects in T2D patients. This case report aimed to highlight the challenges associated with prescribing exercise to type 2 diabetes patients undergoing metformin treatment. A 67-years old woman was followed-up for five months, including assessment of the acute and chronic glucose and lactate metabolism induced by concomitant exercise and metformin. The findings were four-fold: 1) During a high-intensity interval training bout, blood glucose systematically decreased, while blood lactate concen
