Cara Schofield presents at ADC 2025
We would like to congratulate Cara Schofield for her first presentation representing D.T.R.G, at ADC 2025 this week. Cara presented the results of a study investigating the use of whey protein ingestion on overnight glycaemia in adults with type 1 diabetes. Overnight hypoglycaemia is a significant problem for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Given the glucagon-simulating effect of whey protein, this study aimed to characterise the impact of whey protein ingestion on overnight glycaemia in T1D. This study found that in adults with T1D using a fixed subcutaneous insulin basal rate overnight, protein ingestion resulted in a moderate but prolonged increase in glycaemia for at least 6 hours. This provides initial data demonstrating the potential for whey protein to mitigate overnight hypoglycaemia in T1D.
