This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether meals specially designed for Asian Indian and Filipino people with type 2 diabetes can help control blood sugar better than eating as you normally do. You'll wear a small continuous glucose monitor (a sensor that tracks your blood sugar throughout the day) and eat either your regular meals or the specially designed NOURISH meals for one week each. The research team wants to understand how these culturally tailored meals affect your blood sugar patterns compared to your usual eating habits.
Many people with type 2 diabetes find it hard to manage their blood sugar while eating foods that match their cultural background. This study exists to see whether meals designed specifically for Asian Indian and Filipino communities—meals that follow diabetes-friendly guidelines but include foods important to these cultures—might work better than generic diet advice.

You'll participate for about 3–4 weeks total. During the study, you'll wear a small continuous glucose monitor on your arm that tracks your blood sugar automatically. For two consecutive weeks, you'll eat either your regular meals or the NOURISH meals (the order is randomly assigned), while keeping a food diary using a smartphone app. You'll pick up meals from a Stanford location, and the research team will use your glucose monitor data and food diary to compare how your blood sugar responds to each type of meal.
