Egg Consumption and Glycemic Control in Individuals With Pre- and Type II-diabetes
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, Obesity, Pre Diabetes
In brief
The intent of this study is to examine the extent to which daily incorporation of egg into a diet improves glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, lipid profiles, and body composition in overweight and obese adults with pre- and type II-diabetes. The hypothesis of this study is that the daily incorporation of one large egg into a diet for 12 weeks will exert positive effects on factors associated with glycemic control and insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese adults with pre- and type II-diabetes through improvements in body weight, body composition, and lipid metabolism.
