The T2Diet Study involved world-first innovations including:

• the first study to conduct a randomised controlled trial of a web-based low carb nutrition program (10-<26% carbohydrate of total energy intake); and only one of three digital programs worldwide to evaluate a digital dietary program using a randomised controlled trial (the strongest form of evidence)
• the first study to use a mixed-methods assessment of user experience and engagement of a web-based dietary program for people with type 2 diabetes
