NCT ID NCT06501612
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether using a mobile app called Undermyfork along with a continuous glucose monitor (Dexcom G7) helps people with type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar better than standard care. About 91 adults with type 2 diabetes who were not on rapid-acting insulin took part. The goal was to see if real-time glucose tracking and personalized diet tips could improve average blood sugar levels and reduce complications.
