The Problem & A New Approach

Managing Type 2 Diabetes is a Daily Challenge

Living with Type 2 Diabetes often means balancing endless daily medications, managing painful insulin injections, or considering major life-altering surgeries.

There could be a new approach to managing Type 2 Diabetes; a same-day procedure to lower HbA1c.

RESTORE-1

What is the RESTORE-1 Study Testing?

The RESTORE-1 study is evaluating an investigational procedure that targets the small intestine to help the body naturally regulate blood sugar.

No Surgical Incisions

A specialized physician performs the procedure entirely through a flexible tube passed through the mouth to treat the small bowel. There are no surgical cuts and no permanent implants left behind.

Designed for Comfort

The procedure uses standard, routine medical sedation so that you remain completely comfortable and asleep throughout.
