The eHealth Diabetes Remission Trial
Overweight patients with type 2 diabetes are offered a total diet replacement with the goal of weight loss and diabetes remission. Study participants are randomised to eHealth follow-up or face-to-face follow-up, but the dietary advice is the same in both groups. A healthy control group with normal glucose tolerance is examined once but is not randomised and does not receive any intervention.
Conditions studied
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
