Abstract

Can viscous fiber lower glycemic markers in type 2 diabetes? The first meta-analysis to focus on viscous dietary fiber in T2D suggests a potential role for this supplement in improving glycemic control. PRACTICE CHANGER: Unless contraindicated, recommend viscous fiber supplementation to your patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), in addition to the usual evidence-based standards of care, to improve markers of glycemic control. STRENGTH OF RECOMMENDATION: C: Based on a meta-analysis and systematic review of 28 randomized controlled trials, without discussion of patient-oriented outcomes.
