[QUOTE="Grazer, post: 2650749, member: 31362"] Personally, I'm not keen on ideas people like Moseley and others refer to as "putting diabetes into remission", or "reversing diabetes". I think it gives people the idea of a "cure" - these people aren't cured, but like me and many others on here they are managing their BGs down to almost normal levels. Eat a mars bar and test your BG half an hour later and people would see that nothing has been "cured", simply managed to near non-diabetic levels. Years ago there was a channel 4 program looking at people on the 800 calories diet, and at the end they joyously pronounced that most of the people had reversed their diabetes, and even used the word "cured". How many of those people thought "that's ok then, back to the pie and mash" [/QUOTE]
