Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diet is a cornerstone in diabetes management for both type 2 and type 1 diabetes. Eating well and promoting a healthy psychological relationship with diet should be part of regular diabetes self-management education plans. Nevertheless, although there cannot be a unique eating plan for every patient, nutritional interventions should be tailored to patient needs. Medical nutrition therapy can prevent diabetes itself, can be the only therapy used in certain diabetes settings (i.e., type 2 diabetes or hyperglycemia at the beginning, well-controlled gestational diabetes), or can be fundamental when used in addition to pharmacological therapy.
Considering all of these issues, this Special Issue of Nutrients, entitled "Diet in Diabetes: Making a Healthy Eating Plan”, encourages authors to submit articles that examine the roles of specific dietary interventions, the pathophysiological means through which these diets improve diabetes and prevent complications, and the use of these interventions in clinical routine.
This Special Issue welcomes submissions of original research articles or thought-evoking reviews.
