Managing blood sugar levels through non-drug therapies is possible and is backed by science and clinical studies. The EASD 2021 and 2022 symposiums highlighted how non-pharmacological strategies, like whey protein and Morus Alba extract, can help regulate post-prandial glycemia. Learn more about the importance of addressing PPH in type 2 diabetes and the clinical study results supporting the use of non-pharmacological and natural nutritional therapies.
Can type 2 diabetes be cured ? The answer is yes. Type 2 diabetes is traditionally recognized as a chronic disease that needs lifelong treatment. Yet, new evidence now shows remission is possible using an evidence-based nutritional and weight loss approach. Learn more about the clinical results of structured weight loss program based on the DiRECT and DiRECT-Aus studies.
This article presents the science behind special diabetes food. Diabetes-specific oral nutrition supplements, which consist of a tailored macronutrient composition have proven efficacy for glycemic control. Discover an overview of posters and publications of large clinical trials comparing DS-ONS vs. standard ONS in type 2 diabetes patients. Evidenced-based outcomes support integration of DS-ONS in medical nutrition care for diabetes patients.
Whey protein (WP) is a nutritional and non-pharmacological diabetes therapy. In fact, WP has emerged as a powerful supplement for diabetes, particularly in controlling postprandial hyperglycemia (PPH). Backed by evidence from clinical trials, whey protein has unique mechanism of action that can reduce PPH levels, improve glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients.
In type 2 diabetes nutrition, a low carb diabetes diet has emerged as a recommended strategy. Accordingly, diabetes-specific nutritional formulas (DSNFs) are formulated with optimized macronutrient compositions that take into account the latest diabetes nutritional strategies. Both low carbohydrate diets and DSNFs aim to stabilize blood glucose levels and enhance insulin sensitivity. Find out more about these interventions.
Special diabetes food in diabetes nutrition includes the scientifically proven Diabetes-Specific Nutrition Formulas (DSNFs). DSNFs offer a non-pharmacological evidence-based diabetes therapy by providing a well-balanced macronutrient distribution, low-GI carbohydrates, and essential micronutrients. Learn more about the benefits of DSNFs vs standard nutrition formulas.
Obesity is considered as one of the common triggers for the development of type 2 diabetes. As a result, a diabetes diet for weight loss that is aligned with the most updated diabetes nutrition guidelines, can help manage diabetes effectively. Learn more about the latest guideline on the most effective nutritional diabetes management.
Based on the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) statistics, nearly half of all adults with diabetes worldwide remain undiagnosed. This is equivalent to around 239.7 million people unaware of their condition. Particularly in South-East Asia undiagnosed diabetes rates exceed 50%. Learn more about solutions for this problem and how diabetes-specific formulas can help your patients control their blood glucose.
Breakfast has a non-pharmacological role in managing type 2 diabetes, influencing glycemic control, insulin responses, and overall metabolic health. This article explores how breakfast composition, particularly the balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, affects blood sugar regulation. It highlights recent studies comparing the impact of low-carbohydrate, high-protein breakfasts with traditional low-fat options.
