This study is testing whether a structured lifestyle program can help people with type 2 diabetes reverse their condition. The program uses meal replacements (a diabetes-specific formula drink called Glucerna® Control Vanilla Flavour) for 8–12 weeks, followed by a gradual return to regular healthy food over 12–16 weeks, and then a maintenance phase. Researchers want to see if this approach works for Malaysian patients and if it saves money compared to standard diabetes care.
Diabetes is rapidly increasing in Malaysia, and current standard treatments don't always prevent serious complications. This trial wants to find out whether helping people lose weight through structured lifestyle changes can actually put their diabetes into remission—a goal that hasn't been well studied in Malaysian healthcare settings yet.

If you are randomly assigned to the intervention group, you will replace most of your meals with a diabetes-specific formula drink and portion-controlled meals for 8–12 weeks, then gradually reintroduce regular healthy foods over the next 4 weeks. After that, you'll enter a 24-week maintenance phase where you eat regular healthy meals with one formula drink per day. The control group will receive standard diabetes care and advice, then have the option to try the intervention program later. The trial lasts up to 16 weeks for the active phase, with follow-up visits to check your blood sugar, weight, and overall health.
