Therapeutic Strategies for Type 2 Diabetes Based on Lifestyle Changes: Plant-based Diet and Physical Exercise

Participants will follow the same strict vegetarian diet and regular physical exercise as in Intervention 1. Additionally, they will receive a probiotic supplement, taken twice daily for four weeks. This aims to evaluate the metabolic impact of probiotics in type 2 diabetes.

Participants will follow a strictly plant-based diet rich in fiber and bioactive compounds, with controlled macronutrient distribution. Regular physical exercise includes supervised aerobic and resistance training sessions. The intervention lasts four weeks. Instead of probiotic supplementation, participants will receive a placebo, administered in the same manner as the probiotic group to maintain blinding.
