Abstract
Background Susceptibility to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is driven by genetic and environmental risk factors. Dietary preferences are a modifiable and largely environmental risk factor for T2D. The role of diet in disease liability has been limited to observational and epidemiologic studies with mixed findings.
