Clinical Trial Summary

Type 2 diabetes represents a significant burden to both the individual and our healthcare system. Individuals with type 2 diabetes are typically prescribed one or more glucose-lowering medications, many of which have undesirable side effects (e.g., nausea, risk of cardiovascular complications, weight gain) and cost our healthcare system a lot of money. An alternative strategy to lower blood glucose is to consume a low-carbohydrate diet. However, adjusting medications after choosing to follow a low-carbohydrate diet can be difficult. Delivering a low-carbohydrate diet through pharmacists could circumvent this difficulty in medications adjustment because pharmacists are trained to adjust medications. In this study the investigators will determine whether type 2 diabetes patients can reduce medications and improve blood glucose by following a low-carbohydrate, low-calorie diet under the direction of a pharmacist.
