reversal

I have been diabetic for around 9 years. In January I started a keto diet. My decision to reverse my diabetes was based on a bad experience with a once a week injection that made me really ill for 9 weeks. In January I was told to stop the injection immediately and left without adequate...

Has anyone who got there blood sugars back to normal we’re able to also reverse any kidney damage from diabetes? (If you had kidney damage) I spoke to my doctor today and looks like my kidneys have slight damage although my function is normal.

Hello all, I was diagnosed with T2D 6 months ago aged 40 (A1C 7.3). I've managed to reverse it (woohoo!) but am stress about my new results: Month 1-3: 800 cal a day, keto (10% vege based carbs), intermittent fasting. I lost 15kg. 2.3 stone. Result: reversal to 5.3 A1C Month 4-6: maintenance...

Hi all, This week I found that I've shockingly stumbled into the world of Type 2 Diabetes (entirely my own fault). I've decided to pursue an intermittent fasting with low carbs/no sugar path to try and sort out my inner workings. This is in the hopes that the 'reversible' effects (from the...

I'm trying to work out the best diet to use to deal with type 2. currently not on meds and keeping well controlled with lots of exercise mainly. I read a lot about claims of diabetes reversal / cure / remission by following a keto or low carb diet but they seem to only use fasting glucose or...

I have a question, let's say that you have insulin resistance marked by high fasting insulin and higher then normal fasting glucose and you manage to lower your numbers (but you are not diabetic) and your fasting insulin and glucose go down to normal levels. Is this change permanent? I'm just...

with me being recently diagnosed with t2, I’ve been doing so much research. Sometimes when I’m looking at articles and forums I can get negative thoughts it my head, last night was one of them! Now I can’t remember the website I was on, I think it was like a forum but can’t find it....it was...

I'm now at 6 months after stopping the metformin and the aloglyptin (good riddance). Have lost 5 stone (in 5 years). Now at 14.5 stone standing at 6 foot 4 and feel like I am returning to my normal weight. BG's were up at 22 two months ago when I had flu. Currently seem to be hungry all the...

how long have you been in remission for? Has it been harder than you thought to maintain normal blood glucose levels? Has your diet slightly changed since going into remission (are you more strict with your diet or can be a tiny bit flexible)

I guess this question is for those who have controlled bg or as some would say ‘reversed’ or ‘in remission’ For those who lost quite a bit of weight through diet and exercise did you insulin sensitivity increase? Are you able to eat more carbohydrates than before? I know everyone with...

hi everyone I’m 23 years old, and I had a blood test 2 weeks ago and my doctor phoned me this week about my result (I was having problems with my period), he said my blood sugar levels were high and he think I may have diabetes, I had a reading of 8.4 mmol..... I have been really worrying...

Hi all, I'd really appreciate your advice or just general experiences. I had a random blood test for food poisoning turns out my blood results were 48, the diabetic diagnosis is 47 apparently. But my Doc was super quick on the phone - he just said I'd get invited to attend an info course and to...

Hi. I was diagnosed as borderline hypoglycemic in second grade. I was passing out at school. I almost died from a major drop when I was 22. I don't regularly check my sugar at all. I know it's low. I know the feeling. When I've checked, the mornings are typically 75-95. The highest I've ever...

Just arrived back from the hospital and here is the results of my latest HBA1C: A fantastic “38 mmols/mol” down from 46 last Dec 2017 and 85 on diagnosis last Sept 2017. The Consultant Endocrinologist also said I’m Type 2 going into remission! Reduced to one tablet of Metformin from tomorrow...

I came across an article on the Virta Health blog, "How Much Money Could Your State Save with Diabetes Reversal?" What's interesting is that the article quotes a 47.7% reversal rate in calculating savings to health administrations through reversing type 2 diabetes through Virta's low carb...

Hi Guys, I am starting this new thread because some of you out there were discussing already to move forward from the simple paradigm of muscle insulin resistance, liver insulin resistance and insufficient insulin production. Here is a more sophisticated model: the eight causes of diabetes. I...

Hi friends, I've been low-carbing for a couple of months, but today I tried eating sushi: 10 pieces, so quite a lot of rice. I took a blood test BEFORE the meal and registered as 4.2. 2 hours after the sushi meal, I took another test and got 7.3. I understand I shouldn't get too excited about...

Hi friends, I've been diagnosed as type II since the start of October- (my fasting venous test was 13,2), and I finally got an Accu-chek tester (performa) today. Anyway, I did the test 2 hours after my evening meal; it said I was 4.9. That seems better than I had expected, but I'd appreciate any...

Hi friends, I know some food labels have a total carbohydrate, and then that's broken into 'of which sugars' etc. But when you have a label that just has carbs per 100g, then sugars per 100g, do you just go by the carbs, or add them together, or what? Case in point, I'm currently on a fairly...
