Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
Part A: To compare the glucose and insulin responses of a standard tube feeding product to that of a diabetes-specific tube feeding product in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Part B: To compare the glucose response of a standard tube feeding product to that of a diabetes-specific tube feeding product when consumed by individuals with type 2 diabetes as a sole source of nutrition.
