I have a question: my pre-prandial BS was 6.5 using the Accu-Chek monitor. Post meal was 4.7 which is under 8.5......is this good?

This is the link I used: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/magres/research/diabetes/reversal.htm I'll try to find the 2 pdf files Roy Taylor's secretary sent me & I could email them if you PM me your address. I'll post here when found. No need....on this ncl link are the 2 pdf files you can download...

I will but don't see her for 2 months. I did say I use Stone Ground Maltstar Organic from Cann Mill near Shaftsbury. It has 3 grains I think & is a 'Granary' flour. I've not tasted white bread for 20 yrs! However, I do not intend to increase my carbs despiter her advice. I have lost another...

I should ask about porridge....I have a daily bowl of Flahavan's porridge, which might be my main carb. source. I assume this is a good food? Along with my non-starchy veg. I've started eating eggs & bacon, along with chicken & the odd pork chop. I thought of soon including some fish.... The...

Thanks both. I made the bread & had a slice of toast with a sliced hard boiled egg on it......I couldn't resist it. I gave the loaf to a friend. I am having non-starchy veg galore with a portion of a pork chop, as & when the fanct taked me. When I make the drink with water I use 3 instead of...

It's time I posted an update. I saw the diabetic nurse last week for blood results. In the 6 weeks since I started this N.Diet I've reduced my weight by 9KG. My HbA1c has fallen to 66 from 75. It seems I'm defatting my liver too & all other readings are good. My one concern, however, is...

Thanks for all those recent links Roytaylorj---. I couldn't get 1 or 2 don't work but all the others make up for them. I will just say that all want to do is push my diagnosis into 'remission' by using the ND. Curing T2 is far in the future. I am impressed, however, with the quality of input...

I know of no one else in my family with diabetes. I'm not so knowledgable about the ND yet, but I thought the suggestion there was de-fat your liver would see BS back to nomral...............?

Hello. Thanks for info. I cannot see if your GP agreed to your doing the ND that mine would not agree. He's a sensible chap! I'll know in 5 days when I see him & am even lighter! I'll let you know.

I hope folks will like to know that I've lost 15.5lbs in the last week since I started the ND uaing Slimfast & very brisk walks. Just one thing though - should I take the Metformin I was given at the same time?

Hello. 6-7 yrs ago I lost 2st in 5 months with a 800 cal, low carb. diet & lots of vigorous exercise. The only difference now is type 2, & my desire to get my blood sugar back to normal. I say this to show I'm very happy to loose weight & very quickly. My reason for being quick about it is...

This is a really helpful topic. Being newly diagnosed & prescribed Metformin before any dieting or exercising, I found the Newcastle Diet by accident, & eventually this website. I looked for what meal replacements others are/were using as Optifast is not an option. Thank you.

Thank you all for your replies & info/links. I appreciate it. Apologies for using the acronyms. I forget that not everyone will have a MIMS on the shelf. I started a kind of Newcastle Diet 3 days ago until I talk to my GP about doing the Real Thing. I'm thankful I was aware from my own...

Yes...blood test to show.PSA & other things & also found my raised BS.....

What do folks here think of the Newcastle Prof. Roy Taylor's study in reversing type 2 diabetes with a strict 8 week diet regime? I'm 73, and a retired NHS Ward Charge Nurse/RGN. A recent PSA blood test revealed Type 2 sugar levels & I was sent to the diabetic nurse & refereed to the doctor...
