Summary
This trial will show that ketone bodies can help Type 1 Diabetes patients and prevent cardiac problems that may arise from the condition.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with type 1 diabetes who have high blood sugar levels and are at risk of developing heart problems like diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure. It's not suitable for those with other health conditions that could affect their blood sugar or heart function.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effects of a probiotic on preventing serious metabolic issues in type 1 diabetes, particularly focusing on how it might help avoid diabetic cardiomyopathy, which affects the heart muscle.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed, probiotics generally may cause digestive discomfort such as gas or bloating, especially when first starting them. They're usually considered safe but can pose risks for those with weakened immune systems.
