[QUOTE="Steve50, post: 876280, member: 174164"] HI Pip and Indy51 Diabetes UK are funding an extension of the original Prof T work - ([URL]https://www.diabetes.org.uk/Research/Our-research-projects/Scotland/The-DiRECT-route-to-Type-2-remission/[/URL]) based on the knowledge that 'dramatic weight loss...can put Type 2 into remission for up to 80% of patients.' This relates to Surgical outcomes in particular, but it does also state that on an 800 cals a day diet 'Within seven days, levels of fat in.... livers had decreased sharply'. Which is why this study is being funded. This clinical trial is looking to involve the GP community in this broad idea. Patients aged between 20 - 65 with a diagnosis of less than 6 years are included in the study. Long term remission is the goal. So - it is not for 100% of T2's - only 80%. But it may not need to be for long periods as we now know - and positive results are achievable in just 7 days. (This is not an argument for over-weight or under-weight people to give this a go.) It relies on dramatic weigh loss and sharp decreases in liver fat. And yes - this relates to our personal fat thresholds. And of course should be medically supervised......but this study promises to change the way T2 is treated by GP's....with any luck! [/QUOTE]
