Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="Oldvatr" data-source="post: 2385390" data-attributes="member: 196898">The name Cyrus Khambatta, as referenced at the entry of that post is often called The Insulin Expert since he is a Professor Emeritus and his specialty is IR in T2D.  He is well known and often referred to by those who follow and support Plant Based lifestyles.  If you look at the referenced studies listed in the Pilot Study Retrospective in the paper that carries his name (either reference since they are both the same paper) then there are the familiar WFPB celebrities trotted out, and it is obvious that these papers are referring to PB intervention, without comparing it to any other intervention strategy. So no wonder we are confused since the X-Pert paper is a completely different beastie indeed.  So the comments I closed with on results are applicable to X-Pert, not the ones mentioned in your posting.  The book for X-Pert by Trudi Deakin is at issue 11 now.  Trudi is a renowned dietician, but as far as I know, would not be considered an Insulin Expert in Diabetes care.  Recently Trudi has strongly supported Low Carb diets, but the NHS quango who run X=Pert courses do not.Recently X-Pert has changed its stance on diets.(2020)Perhaps this is a better link to what they are offering now<a href="https://www.xperthealth.org.uk/x-pert-blogs/low-carb-and-type-2-diabetes-a-simpleish-summary-of-our-new-position-statement/" target="_blank">https://www.xperthealth.org.uk/x-pert-blogs/low-carb-and-type-2-diabetes-a-simpleish-summary-of-our-new-position-statement/</a></blockquote>
