Anne-Marie Aas is a clinical dietitian at Oslo University Hospital, Aker, and associate professor at the Medical Faculty, University of Oslo. Both work and research is focused on diabetes and nutrition. She is going to present a newly published systematic review and meta-analysis on carbohydrate quantity in the dietary management of type 2 diabetes. She will also present some preliminary results from the ongoing dietary intervention study Fiberdia. In this RCT we investigate the effect of prebiotic fibres on the gut microbiota, glycaemic control and appetite.
