Summary

This trial will assess the efficacy of the Mastering Diabetes program in individuals with diagnosed T2DM.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults aged 18-75 with diabetes or prediabetes, who can prepare food at home, participate in physical activity, and are open to a plant-based diet and intermittent fasting. They must have internet access and be willing to engage in an online community.

What is being tested?

The 'Mastering Diabetes' program is being tested for its effectiveness in controlling prediabetes and type 2 diabetes through lifestyle changes such as diet modification, increased physical activity, stress management, and avoiding unhealthy substances.

What are the potential side effects?

Since the intervention involves lifestyle modifications rather than medication, side effects may include initial discomfort adjusting to dietary changes or increased physical activity but are generally expected to be minimal compared to pharmacological treatments.
