Summary
This study tests whether meals designed for South Asian and Filipino cultures, following diabetes guidelines, can improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes. Thirty participants will wear a continuous glucose monitor for a month while eating their usual diet and then the tailored meals. Researchers will compare blood sugar levels to see if the cultural meals make a difference.
