[QUOTE="Neohdiver, post: 1280469, member: 258692"] Lifestyle changes can often result - very quickly - in absolutely normal blood glucose levels. It took 3 days of low carb eating for everything but the dawn phenomonon to be within the normal non-diabetic blood glucose range. (The dawn phenomenon took weeks - and is the quickest to revert to pre-diabetes levels in response to emotional or physical stress.) Some people can also return to actual prediabetic (or even non-diabetic) functioning. I went from diabetic to pre-diabetic (based on an OGTT) by following the blood sugar diet. In other words, I'm no longer JUST controlling my blood glucose level by limiting carb intake - since the OGTT expressly measures the body's reaction to carbs. I'm not quite at the non-diabetic level yet, but I m very hopeful that I will get there, as well. (Even if I do manage to get there, I will be treating it as remission - with the possibility of relapse - rather than a cure.) [/QUOTE]
