Type 2 Diabetes
Conditions
Brief summary
The investigators hypothesis is that eating whey protein in breakfast will reduce overall postprandial glycemia in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Detailed description
It was shown that increasing protein at breakfast results in reduced overall postprandial glycemia in obese individuals This study was undertaken to evaluate whether compared to proteins like tuna, eggs and soy, the intake of whey protein in the breakfast is more effective to reduce overall postprandial glycemia (PPHG) in T2D individuals.
Interventions
Arm1: Whey protein:The participants will consume 42 g protein, namely from Whey protein in the breakfast
Arm 2 Breakfast- other proteins: The participants will be assigned to 42 g protein of other protein sources at breakfast
Arm 3: Low protein' :The participants will consume 22 g protein at breakfast
