Brief Summary

Prediabetes, defined by either impaired fasting glucose and/or impaired glucose tolerance, is a known high-risk condition predisposing to future diabetes mellitus type 2. Strategies to prevent progression from prediabetes to diabetes have been widely studied, however, without striking long-term effects of any kind of intervention (pharmacological, behavioral...). The investigators therefore investigate certain nutritional approaches concerning nutrient content and favorable food components, targeting metabolic improvement.

Study Arms (4)

intensive consulting, conventional diet

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

subjects receive 16 units of nutritional consulting, first 3 weeks of intervention phase are designed as a conventional hypocaloric low-fat diet referring to DGE guidelines (below 30 % fat), followed by 11 months of isocaloric-to-moderate-hypocaloric low-fat diet (below 30 kcal% fat ) - dietary intervention without supplement

Behavioral: dietary consulting

conventional consulting, low-carb diet

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

subjects receive 8 units of nutritional consulting, first 3 weeks of intervention phase are designed as a very-low calory ketogenic (low-carb) diet (\< 40 g CH / day), following 11 months are restricted to not more than 40 % energy intake by carbohydrates under isocaloric-to-moderate-hypocaloric conditions - dietary intervention without supplement

Behavioral: dietary consulting

Interventions

dietary consulting implies specific dietary advice based on pre-interventional self-report regarding food intake; consulting focuses on nutrient content, calory intake, weight loss; with regard to randomisation consulting intensity and content varies
