Summary

Diabetes is one of the biggest public health challenges of the 21st century because of the costs associated with its management, which are estimated at more than three billion dollars per year in Quebec. This cost has been growing steadily for 20 years now. A person with controlled diabetes mobilizes three times more medical resources than a person without diabetes (Diabetes Quebec, 2009). This amount increases rapidly with the associated complications. Therapeutic carbohydrate restriction (in an omnivorous context) used specifically to control glycemia is being studied more and more, but has never been verified in a vegan context. Some studies show that a vegan diet could be an effective way to help type 2 diabetics (T2DM) to better manage their blood sugar. Thus, it is necessary to question whether these effects can be accentuated in the context of a low or very low carbohydrate diet. Numerous publications have highlighted the role of the gut microbiota in metabolic diseases, including T2DM. Analysis of the microbiome before and after dietary change combined with daily breath testing will tell us more about possible intolerances and the role of the microbiome in T2DM management. Given the novelty of these hypotheses and its absence in the literature, it is relevant to undertake a first pilot project with a smaller number of participants in order to obtain preliminary data that will allow us to define more precisely the research avenues for a subsequent study.

Diet

Participants, in both groups, will be required to eat a diet that is very low in carbohydrates, moderate in protein, with added healthy fats. They will also have to breath in the device to estimate the level of different exhale gaz.
