Virginia Tech researchers found that a ketogenic diet helped mice with high blood sugar normalize glucose levels and significantly improved their muscles' ability to use oxygen during exercise, developing more endurance fibers. The study, published Feb. 25 in Nature Communications, suggests that combining diet and exercise produces greater health benefits than either strategy alone, though researchers plan to test whether the findings apply to humans.
