Dichotomous responses of inter and postprandial hyperglycaemia to short‐term calorie restriction in patients with type 2 diabetes

Abstract

Short-term calorie restriction in overweight or obese patients with type 2 diabetes resulted in dichotomous responses between interprandial and postprandial glycaemic excursions. The resistance of mid-morning glucose peaking to calorie restriction should result in additional dietary or pharmacological measures at breakfast.
