The natural history of type 2 diabetes commonly follows a pattern of postprandial
dysregulation followed by fasting hyperglycemia leading to overt type 2 diabetes.
Approximately 38% of the US adult population is estimated to have pre-diabetes. In a previous
study of 16 overweight/obese patients with metformin treated type 2 diabetes, using a typical
Western meal, investigators demonstrated that a food order in which protein and vegetables
are consumed first, before carbohydrate, results in significant lowering of incremental
glucose peaks compared to the reverse order. In the present study, investigators seek to
expand on the previous findings to gain further insight into the impact of food order in
individuals with pre-diabetes, using a meal with different macronutrient composition, in the
setting of three meal patterns. The study is designed to be a simple, practical intervention
that may have very significant clinical implications for prevention of diabetes in a large
population at increased metabolic risk.
