I've heard a restricted diet can 'reverse' Type 2.

More up to date- this is being trialled

[fiction-factory]

[kvalidir]

Nothing new.......low calorie diet...between 850-1000 cals/day in the form of a "soup" and shakes.

P.S and it is only for Type 2 diabetics.

I was looking at the story about babies and powdered insulin :) x

There have been one or stories in the media recently about people who have reversed Type 2 diabetes with diet and exercise. The only new thing is the NHS are going to trial it.
Obviously, for the desired result, the patients will have to cooperate fully.

A lchf* diet is also shown to reduce/reverse diabetes symptoms.

* low carb high fat
This documentary put it in plain English...

through diet and exercise I am on a level with a non diabetic but will always be classed as diabetic apparently.

Mmmm, cure isn't the right word methinks..... They may have ways of improving thing but this thin go cure is not to be taken lightly... Trust your gut instinct ..... Thee things are genetic which men's they re not random!!!.

Don't let the NHS make you think things are random! They are not. They are trying to dilute results so you don't fall within their category of help needed.

Bluddy NHS blockers as you will discover! Read the prospects, and see how you fare...

For obese people willing to try this extreme diet there is a good chance it will reverse type two, but that weight loss will need to be maintained . The only change is that you might get it free which would be huge as these regimes are very expensive.

All these so called cures for type 1 are a long way off yet.
I will personally let you all know if/when it happens :/
