Diabetes Week: 8-14 June 2026
This year, Diabetes Week is highlighting the need to change how we talk about diabetes. For the 6 million living with diabetes, Diabetes UK wants to “Strike out Stigma” in their new 2026 campaign.
The good news is that Almased, an effective metabolic health protein powder for weight loss, has compelling data confirming its effectiveness for individuals with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes. Almased, a high-protein, low-glycaemic meal replacement, has shown statistically significant benefits in multiple clinical studies, offering hope for better blood sugar control, weight loss, and medication reduction.
In a key randomized controlled trial (Kempf et al 2017) participants saw the following results:
- The Almased group experienced a mean reduction in HbA1c of 1.1% over 12 weeks, compared to 0.2% in the control group, a 450% improvement compared to controls.
- The Almased group lost 6.2 kg of weight versus the control group weight loss of 1.0kg, a 520% difference.
- Systolic blood pressure also decreased by 5.7 mmHg using Almased, versus 1.6 mmHg reduction in controls, a 256% difference.
- 53% of Almased users achieved at least a 20% reduction in their antidiabetes medication scores, and insulin demand was slashed by nearly 50%.
Another clinical study (Röhling et al. 2020) in people with prediabetes showed that 50% of Almased participants converted to normoglycemia after 52 weeks, versus 31% in the lifestyle-only group. Almased users lost 145% more weight (5.9kg) over 12 weeks, compared to controls (2.4 kg), while fat loss was 4.5 kg with Almased versus 1.6 kg in control participants.
These rigorous trials confirm Almased’s effectiveness for improving blood sugar control, driving meaningful weight and fat loss, and reducing the need for diabetes medications among those living with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes. This World Diabetes Day, Almased reaffirms its dedication to supporting better health outcomes through science-backed, practical nutrition solutions.
