Dr. Oberg shares what helpful type 2 diabetes research she is conducting that may be beneficial for women.
Dr. Oberg:
I'm right now running a clinical trial looking at a whole foods diet in Type 2 diabetes and we are comparing that to the American Diabetes Association approach to helping with dietary choices in Type 2 diabetes.
We feel that the whole foods approach may have some potential to offer in managing diabetes beyond what the ADA diet offers currently, so we are putting that through a clinical trial to find out.
