Brief Summary: The primary purpose of this study is to determine the sex-specific metabolic and molecular response among adults with prediabetes when moving from a Western Diet to plant-based diet
Detailed Description: Plant-based diets that are abundant in myoinsitol and D-chiro inositol MI and DCI increase insulin sensitivity by promotion of insulin signaling lowering serum insulin and improving insulin resistance The Western diet contributes to chronic metabolic inflammation often leading to the development of metabolic diseases There is known metabolic improvement among men compared to women when following a plant-based diet or intensive lifestyle modifications Through this study we look to identify the pathways in which plant-based diet impact skeletal muscle inositol metabolites among sexes men vs women and improve insulin sensitivity
