Diabetes Mellitus

Two hundred patients will be recruited to a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT), stratified by Hp 2-2 phenotype status (100 Hp 2-2 and 100 non-Hp 2-2), and randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either vitamin E 400 IU supplementation daily for 6 months or a placebo group. The trial will determine whether vitamin E improves the aforementioned surrogate markers in the Hp phenotype strata.
