Diabetes Intervention Involving Person-centred Nutritional Education (DINE) - Exploring the Benefits and Challenges of a Person-centred Education on the Nordic Diet for Adults With Type 1 Diabetes.
The overall objective for this project is to evaluate the effects of a person-centred education intervention to promote a healthy, sustainable Nordic diet compared with the current practice of providing short dietary information on health outcomes of adults with Type 1 diabetes. The study will measure the intervention's impact on blood glucose levels, blood lipids, blood pressure, and adherence to a sustainable and healthy Nordic diet.
The main question the trial aims to answer is:
Does a person-centred nutritional education have an impact on glucose time in range for adults with Type 1 diabetes, compared with short dietary information?
The participants will:
* Attend either a person-centred nutrition education (intervention) or receive short dietary information (control group). * Wear their sensor for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) throughout the trial. * Visit the clinic for data collection (blood samples and clinical checks) at the start and end of the trial. * Keep a four-day food diary, fill out a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and estimate their food enjoyment at the start and end of the trial.
Inclusion: Type 1 Diabetes; Diabetes duration for more than 12 months at screening; Adults 18 years or older; HbA1c more than 57mmol/mol; Use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor for more than three months at screening and during the study period; Use of basal and bolus insulin regimen for more than three months at screening and during the study period; Written Informed Consent.
Exclusion: Current or planned treatment with corticosteroids during the study (other than for replacement therapy); Cognitive impairment or other disease that study physician find non-compatible with participation; Food allergies or intolerances that are incompatible with adhering to Nordic nutrition recommendations; Planned change in glucose lowering treatment during study period (change of mealtime insulin analogue with same pharmacodynamic profile allowed); Women of childbearing potential: ongoing pregnancy or planned pregnancy during the study period; Planned change of CGM sensor during the study.
