Article Synopsis
- The management of type 2 diabetes (T2D) emphasizes lifestyle changes, particularly a healthy diet that comprises 45%-60% carbohydrates, but low-carb diets have shown improved short-term glycaemic control compared to higher-carb diets.
- A 12-month randomized controlled trial will assess the effects of a carbohydrate-reduced high-protein (CRHP) diet versus a conventional diabetes (CD) diet on glycaemic control in individuals with T2D, focusing on dietary adherence through meal kits and nutrition education.
- The trial, involving 100 participants and monitored by registered dietitians, has received ethical approval and aims to enhance understanding of sustainable dietary practices for long-term management of T2D.
