Newcastle Study: 600 Calorie Diet
from diabetes UK.................
The Newcastle Study is also known as the 600 calorie diet
Extreme low-calorie diets, such as the 600 calorie diet studied by Newcastle University have been hailed as extremely effective in helping people with diabetes to control their blood glucose levels.
In some instances, reports of temporary diabetes cures have been reported from following an extreme low-calorie diet for a short period.
Is this the 600 calorie diet that was in the news?
A Newcastle University study, funded by Diabetes UK, examined 11 people with diabetes who slashed their food intake to 800 calories per day for 8 weeks.
