Type 2 Diabetes and Plant-Based Dieting

Hello everyone!

I am a student from Simmons University in Boston, MA conducting a qualitative research study to learn more about the impact of a plant-based diet on glycemic control in adults living with diabetes. I am inviting you to be part of the study to share your personal experiences, challenges, and perceptions related to managing diabetes while following a plant-based diet, because your insights can provide valuable understanding of how dietary choices influence blood sugar management, lifestyle, and overall well-being. Your participation will help inform future healthcare guidance, dietary recommendations, and support strategies for others living with diabetes. Participation requires a 30-45 minute interview via zoom. If you're interested, please comment and I can send you the consent form to review. If you are currently diagnosed with pre-diabetes, type I diabetes, or type II diabetes and currently follow, or have followed a plant-based diet in the past, you are eligible to participate. All responses will be confidential. Your participation is greatly appreciated!

  1. Thanks for your advocacy, ! I hope you get lots of participation. - Lori (Team Member)
