«In a randomized,
crossover 5 -
wk study
design, we recently reported that a weight - maintaining diet in which the percentage of total food energy as protein was increased from 15 - 30 % resulted in a decrease in postprandial glucose and glycohemoglobin in people with untreated type 2 diabetes without a significant change in insulin»
Subjects were offered 2 high - protein (30 % of energy) ad libitum diets, each for a 4 -
wk period — an LC (4 % carbohydrate) ketogenic diet and an MC (35 % carbohydrate) diet — randomized in a
crossover design.
