What is being tested?
This trial tests a comprehensive approach to manage type 2 diabetes by providing participants with food deliveries tailored to their dietary needs, digital health coaching sessions for better disease understanding and management strategies, remote patient monitoring tools to track health metrics regularly from home, and specialized education classes about diabetes care.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on educational support rather than medication changes or new drugs being introduced into the regimen of participants, there aren't direct side effects related to medications. However, lifestyle adjustments may cause temporary discomfort as habits change.
