Eat your veggies first: new study tests meal sequencing for diabetes in Food-Insecure communities
NCT ID NCT07488767
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether eating proteins and vegetables before carbohydrates (meal sequencing) can improve blood sugar control in 70 adults with diabetes or prediabetes who also experience food insecurity. Participants will receive free produce boxes and either standard nutrition advice or additional meal sequencing counseling. The main goal is to see if meal sequencing helps keep blood sugar in a healthy range over 24 weeks.
