Abstract

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels. Nutritional therapy is an essential part in managing T2DM and often a high-carbohydrate low-calorie diet is advised. Some clinicians and researchers recommend low-carbohydrate diets (LCDs) as the first-line therapy in managing T2DM but this dietary approach is controversial. The aim of this article is to clarify the evidence of the effect of LCDs on glycemic control, weight loss, and blood lipids biomarkers in T2DM patients based on recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
