Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Dysbiosis of gut microbiota is associated with the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes. Mediterranean diet has been indicated as a dietary pattern that promote the integrity of gut barrier and that has positive impact in the metabolic control of subjects with type 2 diabetes. This is a 12-week, single-arm clinical study that aims to evaluate if the effect of Mediterranean diet in metabolic control of these subjects is mediated by gut microbiota. Subjects will receive personalized nutrition counseling where Mediterranean diet will be promoted.
