The outline must be clinician-usable — include sections for: quick summary box, how metformin works, how diet improves insulin sensitivity, comparison of dietary approaches (low-GI, low-carb, Mediterranean, time-restricted feeding), practical step-by-step 4-week meal and behavior plan, key interactions and what to watch for, monitoring and lab checklist, special populations (trying to conceive, adolescents, pregnancy, kidney disease), supplements and adjuncts, patient counselling language, and resources/refs. End with a short list of 6 suggested pull-quotes or callouts to use as sidebars. Output: return a nested outline with headings, H3s, per-section word targets, and the one-line notes for each section as plain text.

End with a short roadmap sentence telling the reader what they will learn and why it's clinically useful. Tone: authoritative, evidence-based, empathetic to patients.
