Brief Summary:
This study determines whether an educational intervention with a 90 g/day LCD is safe, effective and has good compliance for poorly controlled type 2 diabetes patients.
Detailed Description:
Poorly controlled type 2 diabetic men and women, aged between 20 and 80 years, with HbA1c≧ 7.5% (58mmol/mol) in the previous 3 months participated in this randomized controlled 18-month trial at a medical center. Patients were randomly assigned to the interventional group and given a 90g/day low carbohydrate diet (LCD) or the controlled group, which maintained a standard calorie-restricted diet (CRD). All patients received periodic educational intervention and were monitored for weight, body composition, waist girth, hip girth, thigh girth, pre- and post-prandial serum glucose, HbA1c, lipid profile(Cholesterol, Triglyceride. HDL, LDL, sdLDL), renal function, microalbumin/cre, carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),and medication effect score (MES).
