Apparently, there has been reporting of reversal of Type 2 diabetes using the Cambridge 1:1 plan

However, DUK seems to dismiss this claim. But then they would - they funded the Newcastle Diet that used Optifast shakes. Now Optifast (Aus) does not make any claims for diabetes control for their products so the circle is broken at the moment.
I am still trying to find a meal replacement diet plan that makes substantiated claims for this approach independent of the Newcastle study, which I consider to be overhyped.
Just to muddy the waters, Newcastle AC latest study DIRECT is using the Cambridge 1:1 shakes, but have prevented them from making any claims for their product, and ND is careful not to make the mistake of naming what shakes they use. Seems to suggest a commercial tie-up between them.
Edit to add: I am not aware of any connection between ND, DUK with Slimfast, which will allow for an indepedent source of info to compare. There are other meal replacement shake providers too.
