Overview

This is a randomized, single-blind, controlled, parallel clinical trial to examine the efficacy and safety of AMPK Charge+® with and without use of semaglutide on glycemic response in adults with prediabetes or Type 2 Diabetes. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the difference in change in fasting blood glucose and insulin, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) from baseline at Day 84 between AMPK Charge+® and AMPK Charge+® with semaglutide? Participants will consume AMPK Charge+® with or without semaglutide injections and will be evaluated for glycemic response parameters.
