Brief Summary

The role of diet in determining glucose intolerance and its progression towards T2DM has been extensively investigated. A 2017 meta-analysis showed that a vegetarian diet is inversely associated with the risk of developing diabetes. Vegetarians, with the same baseline risk, are half as likely to develop T2DM than those following an omnivorous diet. Therefore, vegetarian nutrition could have important clinical implications in the dietary management of diabetic patients.
