Summary
Brief summary
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition where circulating immune cells destroy the
beta-cells in the pancreas that make insulin, resulting in a degree of insulin deficiency,
whereby blood glucose levels rise and diabetes develops. When there is severe insulin
deficiency, life-threatening ketoacidosis can develop. Treatment is lifelong insulin
replacement therapy; dietary intervention is a also cornerstone of glucose management.

The Optimise Diet is a multi-pronged diet based on "best health" principles: to minimise
blood glucose rises after eating, reduce the immune cells involved in destruction of the
insulin-secreting beta-cells, and improve the gut microbiome and systemic inflammation. In
this study, its effects will be compared to the Standard Diabetes Diet that is currently
recommended in Australia and internationally.
