    Gastric by pass surgery

    Thank you for your reply very informative. How is your wife’s cousin diabetes? Is it still there? I agree with dr fung and you,it should be the last resort. I am more interested in “diabetes reversal” than the weight lose(but they seem to related). I want to know the blood work of people in...

    Tannith's views on reversing T2

Duration doesn't matter cause t2 diabetics who had by-pass surgery their blood sugar and HbA1c start to improve before they lose any weight and they had diabetes for 10-15 years. They...

    had sweets and my bg was still low

    It means your beta cells are working which is good news but if you go back to the conditions that harmed them in the first place will you still get the same results? Like i wrote above i believe we as type 2 diabetics are genetically not meant to eat high carb diets in the first place. Most of...

    had sweets and my bg was still low

    type 2 diabetes has a very strong genetic component, i believe any one with the gene will develop type 2 diabetes on the modern high carb diets sooner or later. There has been athletes who were running marathons like the co-founders of Vitra Sami Inkinen or people like Dr Tim Noakes but still...

    Did a plant base diet ever work for metabolic syndromes?

    Remission as in non diabetic HbA1c levels but some people consider below 48mmol/ml prediabetic levels as remission. It would have been nice if you answered but its ok. I was just curious Ps: i have type 2 diabetes

    Did a plant base diet ever work for metabolic syndromes?

    Hello lucklocket, Looking at your HbA1c it doesn't look like you are in remission. So it made me a little curious and i have some questions if you don't mind. Are you on a ketogenic diet? or just low carb? If no which diet are you on? When did you start the diet? Are you using any meds? if yes...

    HOMA-IR

    Your c peptide is also very low. Hopefully its a misdiagnosis as you said,do more blood tests and see if they remain the same. In the meanwhile keep using insulin and dr bernestein's solution. When were you diagnosed?

    HOMA-IR

    Why do you think it spiked up when you tested the second time? Did you go back to a high carb diet? Around the time of your first and second test you lost around 1-1.5? So you didnt regain the weight!! Why did it change!!! But it can happen sometimes blood tests fluctuate alot normally unless it...

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5357144/ So far it only works in mice but who knows?!! Most type 2 diabetics had no idea about low carb/keto diet and how it can reverse type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes also have “dysfx beta cells” but with a keto diet if they start early enough can...

    Ketogenic diet: Post your keto recipes/what do you usually eat on keto
