Conclusion
In children and adolescents (6-19 years old) living with type 1 diabetes mellitus, limited evidence reported that weekly medical nutrition therapy sessions for the first month after diagnosis and monthly sessions thereafter achieved significant reductions in A1C. For those receiving less frequent encounters with registered dietitian nutritionists, limited evidence reports mixed findings on the effectiveness of medical nutrition therapy.
