Libre 2 CGM plus Glycemic Excursion Minimization (GEM) in the Treatment of Prediabetes- IMPEDE Study

For people with prediabetes, it may be possible to delay or prevent the progression of diabetes by reducing postprandial glucose (PPG). Our Glycemic Excursion Minimization (GEM) lifestyle intervention guide can reduce PPG in people with type 2 diabetes. It has been studied in this population with continuous glucose monitor (CGM) feedback to help the user learn what elevates and lowers their PPG. This study examines if the GEM lifestyle intervention guide plus continuous input from the Libre 2 CGM will allow participants with prediabetes with A1c 6.0-6.4 to

1. Improve their metabolic status by illustrating the effects of their routine food and physical activity choices on their glucose levels and variability, more than Routine Care (RC)

2. Enhance these investigations by adding comprehensive plasma proteomics to the analyses
