Personalized nutrition does not significantly reduce fasting blood glucose compared to control diets in adults with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.
While personalized nutrition improves HbA1c and postprandial responses, it may not significantly lower fasting blood glucose compared to standard diets in the short term. Patients should focus on overall glycemic control (HbA1c) rather than just fasting numbers.
