A Simple Diet Can Send Type 2 Diabetes into Remission

This is the same kind of story with my mom. She got a gastric bypass done, stuck to her diet, loss the weight, and now she doesn't even need any insulin or pills to regulate her blood sugar now. Mind you that's purely an anecdote but I thought I relay it anyway since it's nice to see there might be an underlying correlation or benefit others can employ as well.

Type 2 Diabetes Is "Processed Food Disease". There is a lot of things you can avoid by not eating or drinking anything that is being advertised.

the newcastle diet has had data on this for a while.

Keto, vegan, high carb, low carb, - it really doesn't matter in terms of creating a significant energy deficit for a sustained period of time - the best diet is one that an individual can adhere to.

TLDR Low carb/keto diet

windexh8er 2021-08-17 03:29:17 +0000 UTC [ - ]

Low carb is a pretty hollow sentiment and the article leaves a lot to interpretation. When most of these types of pieces reference "low carb" what they're mostly pointing to is lowering processed / refined carbs. Meaning processed foods high in carbs and low in fiber. The majority of the time these processed foods also have significant amounts of sodium and sugar as additives as well.

But, just because a potato has quite a few carbs, trading it for processed junk low in "carbs" isn't always going to net the end user a reduction of diabetec risk or make them healthier. It's unfortunate that there's so much focus on carb cutting instead of a shift towards whole (unprocessed) foods as the base of a more holistic shift towards health.

...has been found to achieve some degree of remission in 1 out of 5 people with diabetes, for 2 years.

If I recall correctly, keto was developed pre manufactured insulin for just that reason
