Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of a daily nutritional supplement containing whey protein, creatine, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin D on blood sugar fluctuations in adults with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes. Forty participants will be enrolled in a 12-week, double-blind, randomized clinical trial. Half of the participants will receive the supplement, while the other half will receive a placebo. Blood sugar levels will be monitored using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices placed at five different time points during and after the intervention. The study will also measure changes in HbA1c, body composition, metabolic biomarkers, and gut microbiota. Participants will receive medical follow-up and support for six months after the study. The goal is to explore whether this supplement can help stabilize glucose levels and support early management of diabetes.

Conditions

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Protein-Creatine-Omega-3-Vitamin D Supplement

Participants will receive a daily powdered supplement containing 30 g of whey protein isolate, 5 g of creatine monohydrate, 1 g of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA), and 1,000 IU of vitamin D3. The supplement will be taken once daily for 12 weeks, dissolved in water. It is designed to reduce glycemic variability and improve metabolic parameters in individuals with recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Placebo (Maltodextrin)

Participants will receive a daily powdered placebo formulated with maltodextrin, without any active ingredients (no whey protein, creatine, omega-3, or vitamin D). It is identical in appearance, taste, and packaging to the active supplement. It will be taken once daily for 12 weeks and administered in the same conditions as the intervention group.
