[QUOTE="EllsKBells, post: 1900523, member: 338121"] Having actually just read the article in question - the title is extremely misleading. 1) They only looked at 17 people - not even close to statistically significant. 2) They looked at people who were already exercising in large quantities at the time of diagnosis - not people who got diagnosed and then started exercising. 3) They defined honeymoon as insulin dose adjusted Hba1c of 9 or less, but don't say how they chose it, which makes me suspicious that they were cherry picking a little bit - a big research no no. 4) Only adult males were investigated - hardly a representative sample of the diabetic population at point of diagnosis - and they did no antibody testing. It's a mess. They do however say in the original article that no conclusions about causality can be drawn, so of course that's what the summary article goes and does. Rant over! [/QUOTE]
