[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 1456006, member: 19121"] As far as Im aware and after reading the anecdotal evidence on here for the last 8 years I would say that the only way to lose insulin resistance is to lose visceral fat, so any diet will work providing that it is sustained long enough to reduce the visceral fat. I reduced mine but I did not add any extra fat to my diet as every time I did my weight loss just stalled, I ate a low calorie diet to lose weight and a low carb diet to reduce my bg levels so I was eating a less of everything diet but much fewer carbs and no extra fat. Thats not to say that a lchf diet wont reduce insulin resistance but IMHO it is the weight loss not the diet that reduces insulin resistance, any diet will work ie the Newcastle Study diet which is not a low carb at all, its more like a very very low calorie diet.
