[QUOTE="StewartH, post: 2174612, member: 125907"] Hi [USER=513244]@Little Bird[/USER] We are just coming out of a period of 4 or 5 decades when the regular wisdom and best medical advice was that if someone became type 2 diabetic this was an inescapable condition and it was considered normal that the health of the individual would steadily deteriorate over their remaining years. Medication would help keeping blood sugar levels down but not to a level that would ensure continuing health. As conditions worsened the subject would have been put on insulin with all the fun that it brings to life. During this time of course they were recommending the subject kept eating carbs as part of a healthy low fat diet. We are in a time of change. Extraordinarily, this change is mostly driven from grass roots, the people around you on this forum and many others. Many, like myself, are choosing a diet against the advice of their doctors, because of the enormous benefits it gives to everyday life. It needs workijg at but it is well worth it. From that perspective, consider that use of the term 'reversal'. Having been told you would have to take medication for the rest of your life, you find a way to stop taking it. A reversal surely. OK, its not the magic fix that puts everything back to how it was before....but a great deal better that the alternative. Welcome to the club. [/QUOTE]
