Brief Summary: The purpose of the study is to determine which of the commonly used meal supplements is the best product for patients with DM. This is important because meal supplements are becoming more popular as meal replacements in the United States. Peak blood sugar occurs about 2 hours later after a meal. Therefore, the best product would be the one that produces a smallest rise in blood sugar.
Detailed Description: The purpose of the study is to determine which of the commonly used commercial nutritional supplements are preferential for patients with Diabetes Mellitus (DM). We will compare the post-prandial blood glucose (BG) responses in response to 3 different nutritional supplements each containing 50 grams of carbohydrate in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and relate these responses to one of the two well-recognized indices of insulin sensitivity - HOMA-R and QUICKI.
