I'm American. Have any of you tried the NHS soup as an attempt to reverse T2D?

I think most of our members use a low carb diet instead of soups and shakes to reverse their T2, often succesfully.
Hello and welcome @MarcoWonder
As @Antje77 said above- my type 2 is in remission by going very low carb. It's my personal view that very rarely is it 'cured' so to keep it on remission I think you need to keep low carb. What level of carb intake is needed depends from person to person.
The first thing to do though is to get a meter. That will tell you if what ever action you are taking is keeping your levels under control.
Good luck and welcome.

Hi, and welcome. I haven't tried this. I am a 20g/day low-carber, and that's what I would recommend for better bg control and weight loss.
However, the "NHS shake and soup" is a standard low-calorie approach with nothing particularly new about it other than it being provided by the NHS in a structured programme rather than via Slimfast or similar.
Here's a link to the publicity:
