Join other American Diabetes Association® (ADA) professional members for a live one-hour panel discussion webinar, Low- Carbohydrate Diets and Exercise: What Do We Know?. Explore the science and clinical relevance of low-carb eating plans and physical activity in the context of type 2 diabetes care.

Drawing on clinical experience and current research, the speakers will examine the metabolic disruptions that characterize type 2 diabetes, discuss why low-carbohydrate eating plans may be considered for people at risk for or living with diabetes, and explain how lifestyle modifications and exercise can improve insulin sensitivity. The panel will share five actionable tips and host a live Q&A session at the end of the webinar. 

The session is a part of the Hands On: Tips to Improve Diabetes Care webinar series available exclusively to ADA professional members and presented by the ADA’s Behavioral Medicine & Psychology, Diabetes in Primary Care, Exercise Physiology, and Diabetes Technology Interest Groups—supported by funding from The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. 

• Evaluate the evidence supporting potential benefits and consequences of low-carbohydrate diets in type 2 diabetes.
• Recognize the importance of exercise and physical activity in combination with weight loss.
