[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 1370523, member: 160246"] I read and surveyed the Treatment of Prediabetes article. This is a bit concerning... [I]Conflict-of-interest statement: Ralph A DeFronzo is a member of the Bristol-Myers Squibb, Janssen, Amylin, Takeda, Novo Nordisk, and Lexicon advisory boards; has received grants from Takeda, Amylin, and Bristol-Myers Squibb; and is a member of the following speakers bureaus: Bristol-Myers Squibb, Novo Nordisk, Janssen, and Takeda. No other potential conflicts of interest relevant to this article were reported. [/I] A concern I have about most diabetes studies and articles is that they're not using the low carbohydrate high fat diet (LCHF; up to 150 g carbs) or the low carbohydrate ketogenic diet (LCKD; up to 50 g carbs) because diets that are both high carb and high fat are unhealthy and disease promoting. If you really want to dig into the science of the benefits of making lifestyle changes, both diet and exercise, I encourage you to read researchers Jeff Volek, Ph.D., R.D.'s and Stephen Phinney, M.D., Ph.D.'s two books, or listen to their presentations on YouTube.
