Home-delivered meals significantly improved TIR and GMI during the intervention period, which wer not sustained after meal delivery ended.
Participants reported high satisfaction with the meal delivery program.
It underscores the potential of meal delivery programs to enhance dietary management and health outcomes.
Summary of Conclusion/Findings
The study assessed the impact of 28 days of home-delivered, pre-portioned meals on glycemic control and quality of life in people with type 2 diabetes. Participants showed a significant improvement in their time in range (TIR) and glucose management index (GMI) during the meal delivery period. However, these improvements diminished after the meal delivery ended. The study highlighted the short-term benefits of meal delivery but suggested that ongoing support might be necessary to sustain these benefits.
