The Effect of Water Intake on Glucose Regulation (INDIGO-I)

August 23, 2019 updated by: Stavros Kavouras, Arizona State University

The Effect of Water Intake on Glucose Regulation: A Pilot Study

There is a growing body of evidence suggesting low water intake and elevated levels of the hormone vasopressin exacerbate glucose regulation. This project will examine the physiological mechanism by which low water intake impairs glucose homeostasis.

In the current proposal we aim to: 1) quantify the degree of glucose impairment as a response to elevated vasopressin due to low water intake and 2) identify the physiological mechanism by which elevated vasopressin, as a response to low water intake, impairs glucose regulation
