NOURISH Meals for Type 2 Diabetes in Asian Americans

This study is looking at whether specially prepared NOURISH meals, designed for Asian Indian and Filipino cultures and following American Diabetes Association guidelines, can help manage blood sugar in people with Type 2 Diabetes. You would eat either your usual diet or the NOURISH meals, and researchers will compare your blood sugar levels using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM). The main goal is to see how much the NOURISH meals improve blood sugar control. To join, you need to be Asian Indian or Filipino, have Type 2 Diabetes, be able to pick up and eat the study meals for one week, and be willing to wear a CGM for 30 days. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 30 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study with 30 planned participants. It uses a crossover design, meaning you would experience both the NOURISH diet and your self-selected diet.
What's involved
You would wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) for 30 days and keep a detailed food log. For one week, you would pick up and eat three NOURISH meals daily.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Blood glucose changes will be measured during Week 2 and Week 3 of the study.

  • Change in Positive Area Under the Curve (pAUC) for Blood GlucoseDuring Week 2, Week 3

    Upon analysis of the CGM data graphs, the area under the curve will be analyzed. The goal is to observe the difference in glucose levels when participants consume NOURISH meals versus the self-selected diet. Higher pAUC values indicate higher average blood glucose and possibly decreased glycemic control, whereas lower pAUC values indicate lower average blood glucose and possibly increased glycemic control.
