Diet study to improve blood sugar control in new diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how carbohydrate intake may affect how well insulin-producing cells work and how stable your blood sugar becomes in children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. It may help families learn dietary steps that improve glucose control early on.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 5 to 12 years old
- Be within 3 months of a new diabetes diagnosis
- If your diagnosis is at least 2 months old, your HbA1c must be 9% or lower while on insulin adjustments
- Have type 1 diabetes (confirmed by needing insulin right away plus specific diabetes markers or risk factors)
- Be able and willing for family to learn the plan and follow the study diet education

This study tests if a very low-carb (ketogenic) diet is safe and helps control blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes. You would follow the diet for a period and use a continuous glucose monitor to track your levels.
This study tests whether changing your diet can help you adjust your insulin doses more effectively. It might help improve your blood sugar control and make daily management easier.
This study tests whether a “ketosis” state changes brain function in adults with type 1 diabetes. You may be asked to follow specific diet/food delivery plans and use devices that track glucose, which could help researchers understand how metabolism affects the brain.
This study tests whether very low-carbohydrate diets change glucagon response in adults with type 1 diabetes. It may help researchers understand how diet affects blood-sugar control in people using insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors.
This study compares a very low carbohydrate diet to a regular diet to see how well blood sugar control works for adults with type 1 diabetes. It may help you understand which eating pattern is easier and safer for managing daily glucose with modern diabetes technology.
This trial tests a person-centered nutrition education program designed to help adults with type 1 diabetes improve blood sugar control. It focuses on providing individual dietary guidance that fits your lifestyle and preferences.
