Macronutrient Distribution and Plasma Metabolites to Model Meals Composition
Completed
Conditions studied: Glucose Metabolism
In brief
Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) measure plasma glucose concentration continually and thus they are a key tool in the management of diabetes, including type 2 diabetes (T2D). A key factor in diabetes management is a reduction of dietary carbohydrates (CHO) and/or exchanging high glycemic index (GI) CHO with low GI CHO. However, the protein and fat content of the meal can have a significant impact on the glucose readings obtained from a CGM as there is no enough data available on their sensitivity during meals.
