[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2307013, member: 196898"] I thought I recognised the strains of WFPB which is a tune that was played at length in this Forum. I do not accept the title WFPB as a get put of jail free card, since we spent several months seeking the science behind their diet, and found it wanting. Seems we have not moved on much since then. It is this insistance that the diet leads to T2 Remission that I am at odds with. The claims keep being stated without reasonable backing, and quite frankly I do not believe them. The main claim I have seen is that insulin users are no longer needing it and there is a glossy video extolling that. But no follow up studies to substantiate it in a wider sample. The diet plan is 2 weeks, but is as I said earlier a repeating exercise for up to 12 weeks (3 months) which is not a short term venture. It is not a lifetime venture either, but then where are the follow ups that show that the remission is more than just a flash in the pan.. Newcastle Diet and the media made that mistake, and yet there are many forum users admitting that they have relapsed since. I am a low carber, and although I did achieve a period of remission, I too relapsed, and I am committed to using a LC WOE for life. But my IR is significantly reduced and my spare tyre is deflated. As a matter of interest to our readers - does the 2 week plan mean that you will need to pay again to do the next 2 weeks? Considering that WFPB headquarters are just down the road from Harvard Medical School, then I am surprised they have not tapped into that resource by now, but rely on ADVENT 2 and Neal Barnards work for their 'science' If you find papers to share please do, but preferably not in Slovak or published by Pravda.
