[QUOTE="Grateful, post: 1644731, member: 438800"] Agreed. But anecdotally, likely to be rather lower than the success rate of an LC lifestyle (for those who are medically suited for it and who are medically followed to make sure they are sticking to it, i.e. under similar conditions to the ND studies). Of course we cannot say for sure because there are no strictly comparable data on LC, and this study was not designed for that. Also that 46 percent ND success rate is at 12 months. What about 24 months, 48, 96....? "Living anecdotes" such as myself want to know. I am now coming up to 11 months on LC and have little doubt that my remission is long-term. I will be very surprised if it does not carry on for 24, 48, hopefully 96 months and beyond. I get my motivation from the dozens, nay hundreds of other "living anecdotes" on this forum. Because the disease is supposed to be progressive, I am ready for a possible deterioration in the future but until then I know what to do!! BTW I have a T2D first cousin who did the ND diet when it was very new. It did not result in "remission" and he tells me that his T2 is "controlled, as long as I take my meds." He pays no special attention to his diet. He of course is "just an anecdote" in the same way as I am. Last time we met he was very puzzled that I was on a low-carb diet!
