Rhythm restoration1
Restored muscle overwhelms the liver's energy capacity to recycle lactate into glucose
Where this hypothesis actsAfter restoration of muscle glucose uptake, during activity and recovery
What is proposedRealign meal and activity phases to separate hepatic processing demands
With whatChange of environment or regimen
HowUse a timing schedule that separates hepatic processing demands without changing tissue quantity, calories or activity
Possible resultPossible restoration of hepatic energetic headroom and improved glucose recovery
