ClinConnect Summary
The Diabetes Reversal Online Program and Study (DROP Study) is looking at how a 12-week online program focused on plant-based nutrition can help people with type 2 diabetes.

The study is currently recruiting participants and is open to both men and women aged 18 and older who have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
To participate, individuals must not have any unstable medical or mental health issues, must be fluent in English, and should be able to follow their current medication routine.
