Using a 2x2 complete factorial design, approximately 140 obese men and women who may or may not have type 2 diabetes will be randomized to one of two conditions (70 in each condition): (a) a high fiber diet, or (b) a low-carbohydrate diet. Participants will be instructed to follow their assigned diets for 1 year. Outcome measures of interest will include participants' BMI, waist circumference, blood lipids (total, HDL, and LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides), C-reactive protein, and gastrointestinal peptides. Participants will be recruited from the Loma Linda and San Bernardino city area in southern California.
