Summary

This randomized, crossover nutrition intervention seeks to examine the effects of a non-ketogenic low carbohydrate (CHO) diet (60-80g per day) on glycemic control, lipids, and markers on inflammation in individuals with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). This study will be used to inform clinical practice, especially in teaching medical nutrition therapy to new-onset diabetes patients and those struggling with glycemic control and hyperlipidemia. At this time, no evidenced-based universal recommendations from randomized controlled trials exist to support low carbohydrate dietary patterns as a front-line approach in individuals with T1D. The investigators hypothesize a diet consisting of 60-80 g carbohydrate diet will result in greater improvement in glycemic control compared to a 50% carbohydrate diet in patients with Type 1 diabetes over 12 weeks in the outpatient setting.
