Dietary approaches for weight management in type 1 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests two different diet approaches to help people with type 1 diabetes who are overweight or obese manage their weight. It aims to find out which eating plan works better for blood sugar control and weight loss.
