Personalized Nutrition Therapy Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring to Improve Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Recruiting

The purpose of this research study is to learn more about how food affects blood sugar levels, and whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help to individualize nutrition education for people with diabetes. Participation in the study would require 3-4 clinic visits over a period of 14 weeks. Participants will also be asked to: meet with a registered dietitian every 2 weeks (virtually), keep food logs, wear a CGM and an activity monitor, answer survey questions, and provide blood samples to measure markers of diabetes control (like hemoglobin A1c).
