The Meaningful Effects of a Personalized Nutrition and Coaching Program for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Two Case
Abstract:
Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) is a global health crisis affecting 10.5% adults worldwide. The numbers are even higher in the United States with currently 11.3% of all Americans diagnosed with T2DM. Research has confirmed that medical nutrition therapy (MNT) including a customized diet and coaching support can be an effective tool for diabetes care. In this report we describe two cases in which MNT improved glycemic control, helped to reach, and maintain a healthy weight, and reduced critical cardiovascular risk factors. This report shows that a personalized nutrition program combined with coaching by certified experts can be an effective tool in the daily diabetes practice.
