No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In health,adipose tissue stores fat from the diet. If the fat tissue stops storing dietary fat then this increases the chance of it being stored in the liver, which is related to increased risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. It has been suggested that having a diet high in sugars or certain fats, may cause the fat tissue and liver to change how they function; we would like to investigate this in detail.
