Abstract Background/objectives In people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), low carbohydrate diets (LCD), defined as 10– 0.8. Conclusion This study demonstrated that as an adjunct to standard care, the web-based T2Diet programme significantly improved glycaemic control and clinical outcomes in adults with T2DM. In addition, the results highlight the potential to improve access and availability for people with T2DM to achieve glycaemic control and improved health through web-based dietary education and support.
