About this study

Official title: Title: Effects of Discontinuation of Sugar Sweetened Beverages on Hemoglobin A1c, Fasting and Post Prandial Blood Glucose in Type 2 Diabetics

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of discontinuation of sugar sweetened beverages on hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and plasma fasting and post-prandial blood glucose in a population with type 2 diabetes.

Hypothesis Elimination of sugar sweetened beverages from the diet for a 4 week period will lead to a decrease in HbA1c and plasma fasting and 2 hour post prandial blood glucose in a population with a history of type 2 diabetes and high consumption of sugar sweetened beverages.

Specific aims to test hypothesis

  1. Investigate how elimination of sugar sweetened beverages from the diet affects HbA1c and plasma fasting and two hour post prandial blood glucose.
  2. Test the feasibility of carrying out a simple diet intervention in an outpatient population with type 2 diabetes.
Read the detailed description

Type and Design of Study This will be a pilot study including adult patients age >/= 18 diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes who are patients at the Duke Outpatient Clinic (DOC) or patients in the general medicine or family practice clinics in Durham County. The intervention will be elimination of sugar sweetened beverages from the diet in a population of type 2 diabetic subjects for four weeks. Sugar sweetened beverages will be defined as any liquid beverage containing calories that can be attributed to natural or added sugar.
