[QUOTE="AlexMagd, post: 1630189, member: 429623"] Hi everyone So I'm thinking about starting 2018 with a run at the Newcastle Diet, hopefully armed with some more clinical information from Prof Taylor's speech at the diabetes symposium in December. One thing I'm curious about, however, is how people have managed afterwards. People on the forum who've done the ND, how do you eat now? Low-carb? Normally but with reduced portions, as Prof Taylor has suggested may work? I'll be honest the reduced calories and the hunger don't bother me at all, but I'm worried about how you then transition back into normal food and avoid regaining the weight! I also thought it might be good to have some of this info all in once place, as I know a lot of people here have done the ND, but few have reported back afterwards about how well it worked. Also my understanding is that the ND is believed to work by letting the pancreas 'wake up' dormant beta cells that have been clogged up with fat. However, to me that implies that the ND will likely only work for people whose diabetes 'problem' is reduced insulin production rather than, say insulin resistance of the body's other cells (i.e. can't produce enough insulin vs the insulin being produced isn't being accepted by the cells). Is that a wrong interpretation? Taylor's research implies that this can be an effective treatment for most people, especially those recently diagnosed, but I can't make the connection myself!
