DM: Types of Protein (Vegetable-Based vs. Animal-Based)
-
Intervention
In adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, what is the relationship of differing types of protein (vegetable-based versus animal-based), independent of weight loss, on diabetic kidney disease (GFR and/or proteinuria)?
-
Conclusion
One study reports a positive impact of soy protein compared to animal protein on proteinuria, independent of weight loss, in adults with type 2 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease (DKD). There was no significant impact of soy protein consumption on glomerular filtration rate. There were no studies identified in adults with type 1 diabetes.
Additional intervention studies are needed regarding the impact of differing types of protein on diabetic kidney disease in adults with diabetes.
-
Grade: III
- Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
- Grade II is Fair;
- Grade III is Limited/Weak;
- Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
- Grade V is Not Assignable.
- High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
- Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
- Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
- Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
- Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.

In adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, what is the relationship of differing types of protein (vegetable-based vs. animal-based), independent of weight loss, on glycemia (A1C or glucose)?-
Conclusion
One study reports a positive impact of soy protein compared to animal protein on fasting glucose levels, independent of weight loss, in adults with type 2 diabetes and diabetic kidney disease (DKD). No studies were identified that reported on A1C or that included adults with type 1 diabetes.
Additional intervention studies are needed regarding the impact of differing types of protein on glycemia in adults with diabetes.
