Evidence brief: virtual diet programs for diabetes

Résumé du livre

15 studies (9 RCTs, 1 non-randomized controlled trial, 3 single-arm longitudinal studies, and 2 pre-post studies) evaluated 14 virtual diabetes diet programs with a coaching component. We conducted a rapid evidence review assessing the last 5 years of research on the Virta Health program and other similar programs, focusing on weight loss, HbA1c, and medication reduction, the outcomes that have been emphasized by Virta and proponents of other virtual programs.
