Hi and welcome. I see from your profile that you don't have diabetes - it would help me and other people to reply to you if you could give some background to your questions. Are you asking out of curiosity, or do you have a friend or relative with diabetes? What do you mean by "reverse diabetes"? - people have different takes on that.

@Addressing The Root Cause - there really isn't a totally agreed definition about what Type 2 diabetes is -other than the totally diagnostic definition (and therefore not too helpful to your question) which relates to a threshold of circulating blood glucose.

Part of the problem is that it's all extremely complicated once you get beyond very simple concepts - like, you can describe the progression towards T2DM as a hormone imbalance - therefore the root cause is what tipped the balance, which leads to the idea that reversing the condition could well be about tipping the balance the other way - which sounds suspiciously simple.

And it kind of is and isn't at the same time, depending on you, where you are in regard to these hormones, which is to say a laundry list of background factors, and what you may be willing to do - you are uniquely different to anyone else in terms of your personal reaction to various things.

All I can really say is that it has been possible for me to get to a point where I have been listed as being in remission without recourse to meds - but my story only directly informs someone with exactly my background, presentation and following the course of action I took.

What do I mean by all of this ? tell us about your story - that's ultimately all we can really do here, share our stories; there isn't a "best" or "universal" method to reverse T2DM, and we cannot prescribe ...anything... really - all we can do is learn from each other. But - that's been an incredibly positive thing for me, and a big part of my ongoing story.
I hope you find something useful, and good luck..

Hi and welcome @Addressing The Root Cause Like the previous posters I'm interested in your story and why you are interested in this.

While there is not universal agreement on what reversing type 2 diabetes is- in my view I have done it. My latest blood tests showed my HbA1C in the normal range with no medication and more importantly my insulin resistance was in the normal range. Having said that my sincere belief is that I can not return to my previous eating habits or I will develop diabetes again.

If you are a health professional or the like I am glad of your interest hopefully with an open mind. Here in Australia there is certainly a need for more medical professionals who do not see type 2 as a necessarily progressive disease with no alternative other than ending up taking insulin.

However, I think giving us your story will result in more responses.
