Culturally Tailored Nutrition Therapy to Improve Dietary Adherence of Type 2 Diabetes Patients in Benin, Africa
Effectiveness of a Culturally Tailored Medical Nutrition Therapy for African Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: The Objectif Santé Diabète Benin (OSanDiaBé) Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The clinical trial aims to assess the effectiveness of the Objectif Santé Diabète Benin (OSanDiaBé), a culturally tailored medical nutrition therapy (MNT), in enhancing diabetes management and nutrition choices. The investigators hypothesize that participants receiving OSanDiaBé will demonstrate greater improvements in dietary adherence and greater reductions in HbA1c at 6 months compared with those receiving usual care. The investigators further hypothesize that these improvements will be maintained at 12 months following the end of active intervention contact.
