[QUOTE="runner2009, post: 1042714, member: 95489"] First of all congratulations on your weight loss. Yes, I am ranting about the use of the word cure and reversal and it being irresponsible used. Most of these claims, do not have follow up studies ( ND not included ), nor do they define the population they use as proof in any more detail than claiming they are type 2 diabetic. We all know that there is a **** load of difference between type 2 / 1.5 who's blood sugar raise to 300 and then drops to 60 in a period of a day or less, compared with type 2 that have only a delayed or reduced primary insulin response. And we also know that the type 2 / pre-diabetic diagnosis by the medical establishment is based solely on ones fasting sugars and A1C both can be a false negative and positive and the differences in the diagnosis is a couple of points. My point is that everyone with too high A1C and high Fasting blood sugars is lumped into one category of Type 2 diabetes - ignoring the fact that there are many different sub types and stages in this metabolic disease. We all know its not one group just by reading about others experiences in this forum. Yes, do I believe you can manage diabetes with life style changes? Of course I do and even long time Type 1s can too as Dr. Bernstein has shown. As I've written before what these cures all have in common are what we know already. 1. LCHF diet ( high fat meaning moderate ) 2. No or minimal processed foods - including pasta and breads 3. Lose weight the more the better 4. Lose belly and viseral fat 5. Up your exercise - the more the better 6. Watch portion sizes 7. 50% of food from veggies. 8. Eat more fiber 9. watch your intake of all types of fructose 10. Eat a low calorie diet as much as you can. 11. Watch protien as 50% can be converted to glucose. This is not revolutionary and basically it really comes down to 2 points, increase your activity and drastically reduce your calorie intake - all one has to do is go through Life Magazine archives and look at the pictures from the mid 1900s and back and the majority of people all have low BMIs. Am I still cranky from yesterday yes I am. I've got a high level of ketone in my blood from this low calorie diet. I've not taken insulin for now 5-days. Last night before bed my BG was 69 ( driven down by GPL-1 response from a whey shake? ). This am I woke with a BG of 158 and I'm hungry as can be. Cure for me is when I can get some new beta cells created from stem cells. Anyway good work on the weight lose. It's awesome. [/QUOTE]
