[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1123219, member: 196898"] Honestly, I don't think the video answers the OP either. It will just frighten and confuse people who are not diabetes savvy into stopping medication because this one study shows that the other orals are useless and increase the risk of death. One of the drugs described has been banned for many years now (I know coz I was on it) He talks about T2 being lifestyle problem (a minefield here) and I think his closing slides have drawn wrong conclusions, but cannot put my finger on it even after my 3rd viewing. if I was a Newbie, I think this video would have put me off taking medication even Met, and gone for diet alone. I do not think this video provides a balanced overview, and is quite negative. [/QUOTE]
