[QUOTE="kokhongw, post: 1572089, member: 277199"] That is a very good question. My take is that Dr Roy Taylor is simply trying to prove that T2D can be reversed thru calorie restrictions. Including the restoration of 1st phase insulin response. And is in the process to determine how long that calorie restriction needs to be for higher success rate. The last published result was that 8 weeks of 800 calorie/day works for about 50% of the subjects. Come december he will have results of longer studies with more participants. Dr Jason Fung is simply trying to get more of his patients to reduce their glucose levels to near normal. And found that intermittent fasting is an effective and sustainable way of achieving it. You may also want to read up on Dr Valter Longo's studies on cycles of Fasting Mimicking Diet. His proposal is that it is the cycles of fasting AND proper refeeding that will help address/heal the underlying metabolic damages. [/QUOTE]
