Heterogeneity Informed Nutrition Therapy for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital
Summary
The hypothesis for this study is that women with different physiologic subtypes of gestational diabetes (GDM) (insulin secretion deficit vs. insulin sensitivity deficit) will differ in their glycemic responses to meals with different portions of dietary macronutrients. Investigators will determine GDM subtype based on glucose and insulin levels taken at multiple time points during an oral glucose tolerance test. Participants will consume two meals with different macronutrient content while wearing a continuous glucose monitor which will allow investigators to assess the glycemic response to the meals.
