Six and 12 Weeks of Caloric Restriction Increases {beta} Cell Function and Lowers Fasting and Postprandial Glucose Concentrations in People with Type 2 Diabetes [Nutrient Physiology, Metabolism, and Nutrient-Nutrient Interactions]

Conclusions: Six weeks of caloric restriction lowers fasting glucose and EGP with accompanying improvements in β cell function in people with type 2 diabetes. An additional 6 wk of caloric restriction maintained the improvement in glucose metabolism. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01094054.
