Whether or not T2 is reversible is very debatable. I agree, exercise and low carb diet can certainly help with control and there have been studies on very low calorie diets providing promising results but please refrain from a blanket statement such as "don't worry, diabetes type 2 is reversible' because for many, it is not. Thanks.don't worry , diabetes type 2 is reversable with the right foods and exersize, educate yourself in what to eat first, it will prevent you from having to take metformin or any other medication. In most cases the unnecessary fats will have to be removed out of the liver and other parts of the body and the simple and easy way to do that is to eat the right foods, eat less and exersize more.
so start with educating yourself about what foods are best and what foods to prevent, from there on things will get better

I am really not sure that is right, you may be able to gain better control etc, but this is worrying ......it may mislead many people...?So much confusion as there is....taking medication and or exercise can help people a great deal...for most it's reversible, at least 90%, medication will block the body's natural metabolism to heal and damage the broken system even more, therefore ppl who choose to take meds won't cure and will stay on meds till the end. The best thing to do when you want to get rid of the "disease" is to stricly eat the best recommended foods not more than 1000 calories a day for a month and exersize like half an hour a day. ppl who choose to not go that path will stay on meds for the rest of their lives
Eating a bit more healthy, taking pills, and a little exersize won't change much, drastic changes have to be taken to reverse and that can be accomplished underr a month, wich has been documented and proven.
