Official title
A Weight Neutral, High Protein, Moderate Carbohydrate Diet for Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The proposed study is a randomized controlled, pilot effectiveness trial comparing the LoBAG diet to a control diet in 38 participants with DM2 over 12 weeks. Participants will have DM2 that is not under ideal glycemic control (HgbA1c 7.0-9.5%) and must be taking no glycemic medications or metformin. Participants will be free-living (given diet instruction and dietitian support, but asked to prepare meals in their own homes). The primary endpoint will be HgbA1c, measured at baseline and at the end of the 12-week diet intervention. Additional outcome measures will include: weight, fasting plasma glucose, fasting serum insulin, postprandial plasma glucose and serum insulin following a test meal consistent with the assigned diet, serum fructosamine, fasting serum lipids, stool samples for gut microbiome analysis, and surveys to assess quality of life, including the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire. Compliance outcomes will include: urine nitrogen to creatinine ratio, survey data, three-day food diaries, and unannounced 24-hour diet recalls.
