The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of low carbohydrate diet versus Mediterranean diet on blood sugar values in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
The main question aims to answer whether a low carbohydrate diet is as effective as the Mediterranean diet for better glycaemic control in type 1 adolescents.
The investigators are also aiming to check whether low carbohydrate diet is safe and does not elevate cholesterol blood levels and whether the diet is adherable among youth with type 1 diabetes.
Participants with type 1 diabetes wearing a continuous glucose monitor and that will sign an informed consent will be randomly selected for 2 groups. One group will get the Mediterranean diet program and the other will get the low carbohydrate diet program, both for a duration of six months. Each participant will attend a cooking workshop at the beginning of the study. Blood work and stool samples will be taken at the beginning and 3 times through the study periodd. Each participant will attend meetings with the dietician thorough the period of the study.
Background and objective: Improved glycemic control of type 1 diabetes (T1DM), with low rates of adverse events was reported via an online community of children and adults who consume a of low carbohydrate diet (LCD). The investigators aim to compare the effects of a low carbohydrate diet (LCD) with those of a Mediterranean diet on glycemic control, lipid profile, bone metabolites and the microbiome profile in adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
Design A randomized, controlled trail. Families of adolescents in the Diabetes clinic in Edmond and Lily Safra Children's Hospital will be approached and offered to participate in a dietary intervention study. After participants will sign the informed consent, they will randomly be assigned into 2 diet treatment groups, the LCD (n=20) and the Mediterranean diet (n=20). Baseline nutrition teaching session and training and will be conducted for all participants and their parents. Participants will attend visit with the dietician at baseline, 2, 4, 8,12 weeks and will be given a 3-day food dairy to complete twice in that period. Measurements of weight, height, blood pressure, HbA1c, Time in range, number of hypoglycemia, lipid profile, creatinine, bone metabolites will be measured at baseline and 12 and 24 weeks and gut bacteria profile at baseline and at 24 weeks. Personality, quality of life, and socioeconomic questionnaires will be given to children and their parents.
Contribution of the suggested research:
In this research the investigators are aiming to show that LCD is as good as Mediterranean diet with improved glycemic control, safe, and adherable for adolescent with T1D.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low carbohydrate diet | Experimental | The LCD will provide 50-80g of carbohydrate per day with no caloric restriction. The planned macronutrient compositions (percentages of the total calories) of the diet were: 15-20% carbohydrate (<80 g/day), 33% protein and 58% total fat. |
|
| Mediterranean diet | Active Comparator | The MED group was prescribed a moderate-fat MED, rich in vegetables and low in red meat, with poultry and fish preferred to beef and lamb. The primary sources of added fat were 30 to 45 g of olive oil and a handful of nuts (five to seven nuts <20g) per day. The planned macronutrient compositions of the diet were 40-50% carbohydrate, 25% protein and 35% total fat. The diet is based on the recommendations of Willett and Skerrett |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low carbohydrate diet | Other | In order to maintain equal intensity of treatment, each patient will get a cooking workshop and received a personalized diet regime at baseline, based on the randomly assigned diet. Format and quality of the materials are similar. All diet plans are individualized and matched for energy intake personally . Participants will meet individually with the dietitian for diet instruction and support at week 1,2,4,7,10,12 and thereafter at 24 weeks for a total of seven frontal meetings. Twice during the first 12 weeks the dietician will conduct 10-15-minute motivational telephone calls with all the participants. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change of time in range (TIR) 70-180 mg/dl after following a LCD or a MD in adolescents with T1DM. | Time spent in range (TIR) 70-180 mg/dl assessed by CGM was downloaded at each visit with the dietician. Severe hypoglycemia was defined as an episode requiring assistance and was confirmed by documentation of a blood glucose value less than 54 mg per deciliter | The change of TIR between baseline and after six months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of the influence of LCD vs. MD on HbA1c. | Blood test for Hba1c will be taken at baseline and 24 weeks. Insulin dose and glycemic variability will be taken at each visit with the dietician from=n the pump and sensor downloads. | The change between baseline and after six months |
| Assessment of the impact of dietary changes after an LCD vs. MD on gut dysbiosis |
