About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Type 2 Diabetes focused on measuring Type 2 Diabetes, obese, overweight, glycemic control

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 65 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Males and females between the age of 18-65 years, inclusive, at screening BMI between 25 and 39.9 kg/m2, inclusive Females not of child-bearing potential, defined as those who have undergone a sterilization procedure (e.g. hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, complete endometrial ablation) or have been post-menopausal for at least 1 year prior to screening Or, Individuals of child-bearing potential must have a negative baseline urine pregnancy test and agree to use a medically approved method of birth control for the duration of the study.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the GOLO for Life® Plan (G4LP) and Release supplementation on glycemic control and weight in overweight and obese adults with Type 2 Diabetes. The change in glycemic control from baseline at Days 90 and 180 following the G4LP and supplementation with Release will be assessed. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of the G4LP and Release supplementation will be measured by the occurrence of and/or changes in pre-emergent and post-emergent adverse events (AEs).
