Dietary approaches contribute to the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. High protein diets were shown to exert beneficial as well as adverse effects on metabolism. However, it is unclear whether the protein origin plays a role in these effects. The LeguAN study investigated in detail the effects of two high protein diets, either from plant or animal origin, in type 2 diabetic patients. Both diets contained 30 EN% protein, 40 EN% carbohydrates, and 30 EN% fat. Fiber content, glycemic index, and composition of dietary fats were similar in both diets. In comparison to previous dietary habits, the fat content was exchanged for protein, while the carbohydrate intake was not modified. Overall, both high protein diets led to improvements of glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, liver fat, and cardiovascular risk markers without remarkable differences between the protein types. Fasting glucose together with indices of insulin resistance were ameliorated by both interventions to varying extents but without significant differences…
