[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2447903, member: 451727"] I think that's a little overstated, they did [I]not [/I]'halt progression', they found that 12 months after diagnosis some of the group were still producing their own insulin, I think we already know this is common. The participants were using injected insulin too which for 'LADA' patients can also have the effect of preserving beta cells. I read the publication and it involved a very small group of participants (adults), it was halted before the end due to funding, it showed minimal 'success' of the retainment of beta cells in slow adult onset type 1 and it has not been reviewed or commented upon by official sources. Obviously any small experiment is a good thing, it all has to start somewhere but your Diabetes Dr claiming that this particular study is somehow fixing the underlying cause or 'curing' it is pushing it a bit. All of these patients were newly diagnosed and would have been in the honeymoon period, they were all still producing insulin of their own as well. [/QUOTE]
