Summary
This study tests whether a structured nutrition counselling program can improve diet, blood sugar, blood pressure, and quality of life in adults who have both type 2 diabetes and hypertension. About 308 participants from 14 hospitals in Ethiopia will either receive six individualized counselling sessions over three months or continue with usual care. The counselling is based on a behavioral model that addresses what people need to change their eating habits.
