Summary
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of exercise training, Acarbose, and the combination of exercise and Acarbose on glycemic control, body composition, insulin sensitivity and other cardiovascular risk markers in type 2 diabetes. Further, muscle biopsies will be obtain to study gene expression. Our hypothesis is that the combination therapy will be superior to monotherapy with exercise or Acarbose.
