[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1510105, member: 41816"] Hi April, I find Ketogenic eating the most important thing in controlling my health, with being Gluten Free a close second. My blood glucose is normal, if I combine those two things. And more importantly, I feel great eating that way. The only disadvantages I experience are limited food choices when eating socially, and having to cook all my own food fresh, at home. I think that medication is TOTALLY NECESSARY for many people with all types of diabetes, and they should not be shamed or criticised for needing necessary meds. However, many diabetics (of all types) are able to reduce medication by reducing carbs in their diet, and can slow down or even halt the progression of their diabetic complications by keeping their blood glucose as low and stable as possible. Some type 2 diabetics can come off medication completely. However, I did want to suggest that you carefully consider how you are going to use the word 'reverse' in your dissertation. If you do a search on this forum for threads discussion 'reversal' you will find that nearly everyone has a different interpretation of the word, when applied to Type 2 diabetes. Some people consider that Reversal means lowering your blood glucose to non-diabetic levels, some people consider it to mean that they are able to eat high carb foods without blood glucose rising to diabetic levels. I really don't want to derail this thread with that particular sack of worms (sometimes the discussion gets pretty intense :) ) but I would urge you to state clearly what you are considering Reversal to mean. Hope that helps. [/QUOTE]
