Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to determine the sex-specific metabolic and molecular response, among adults with prediabetes, when moving from a Western Diet to plant-based diet.

Conditions

  • Prediabetes (Insulin Resistance, Impaired Glucose Tolerance)

Interventions

OTHER

Plant-based diet

Standard plant-based meals will be provided directly to participants. The dietary intervention will begin with a one-week Western diet run-in; hereafter, participants will consume plant-based meals for approximately 5 weeks. Total energy provided will be equal to REE X 1.4 to account for light physical activity to support weight maintenance. High-inositol snacks will be provided to meet energy needs. Meals and snacks combined will provide a minimum of 20mg total inositol/kg body weight. For example, a 200lb participant will consume 1.8g daily, which is consistent with doses used in prior studies.
