Fresh Carts for Mom's to Improve Food Security and Glucose Management

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus in Pregnancy, Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

In brief

This study will look at the benefit of decreasing food insecurity and improving glucose control among women who either report gestational diabetes (GDM) at 20-28-weeks or have type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with a confirmed pregnancy. Participants will receive a grocery prescription with delivery through Instacart at the start of the study or after 12 weeks or frozen medically tailored meals delivered from Door Dash. Researchers will compare the grocery prescription program, MTM (medically tailored meals), relative to standard of care to see if the impact on these food as medicine programs can improve glucose control over 12-weeks as compared to standard of care.
