Brief Summary: The study is a single site, prospective, open label, observational, single arm trial in 30 patients with type 2 diabetes with GI complaints using 1 or more oral or injectable anti-hyperglycemic agents to investigate if altering the microbiome though Pendulum T2D dietary supplementation can further enhance the efficacy of the current treatment while reducing the GI associated symptoms in patients with Type 2 diabetes.
Detailed Description: A high prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms exist in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes that affect the quality of life negatively and substantially, although the underlying pathophysiology and relationship with glycemic control remain unclear. The current study aims to investigate if altering the microbiome though Pendulum T2D dietary supplementation can further enhance the efficacy of the current treatment while reducing the GI associated symptoms in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus who are already on a stable dose of metformin alone and/or alongside other oral or injectable anti-hyperglycemic agents (sulfonylurea agents, DPPIV inhibitor,Glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 agonist, sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT)-2 inhibitor and/or insulin) and with present GI symptoms. The study is a single site, prospective, open label, observational, single arm trial in 30 patients with type 2 diabetes with GI complaints using 1 or more oral or injectable anti-hyperglycemic agent and an HbA1C between 6.5% and 9.5%. The study will be 8 weeks in duration (2 weeks baseline and 6 weeks product intervention), with an option to continue to 6 months for those willing to continue taking the dietary supplement. As the study is observational and the data are to be used to for the purpose of evaluating improvement in GI symptoms during the intervention with Pendulum T2D there is no specific method to determine sample size.
