Summary

Strawberries can be categorized as a functional food based on results from several clinical trials in improving cardiometabolic health beyond providing nutrition. Recent studies identify the role of strawberries in improving insulin resistance and risks of type 2 diabetes which urgently warrants further investigation, keeping in view the huge public health burden of diabetes in the US. In this study, the investigators propose to investigate the effects of a dietary achievable dose of strawberries on glycemic control, insulin resistance, and HbA1c (primary variables) and biomarkers of inflammation and endothelial function in a 28- week controlled crossover study.
