Within diabetic populations, hyperglycaemia is considered the hallmark diagnostic marker of metabolic abnormality and a major contributor to T2DM associated macro - and micro - vascular complications.61 One study by Ash et al 36
saw 51 overweight /
obese male subjects with T2DM assigned to one of three groups; (i) IER (four days 50 % ER, three days ad libitum intake / week), (ii) CER (30 % ER / day, all meals provided) and (iii) CER (30 % ER / day, food self - selected by the
participant).
