[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1171455, member: 196898"] I think some of us are trying to shoot the messenger. I would rather we debate the claim that was made that theWFBP diet can reverse T2D. If this is found to be a viable claim then we should support it, but if it has dubious science behind it, then this should be exposed since we should not support a diet that is unsuitable for diabetics, or at least point out weaknesses in the hypothesis so that inexperienced readers can make an informed decision. It is difficult to find proper studies done for this diet. If you want a laugh then I did find this: [URL]http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3662288/[/URL] The so called references exist, but their evidence is based on short term or single case studies, The conclusions drawn from them seem to be grossly exagerated considering the short term of the study (30 days, 18 weeks) The data in the reports is limited to the abstract text, so it is dificult to check, but the way the results are presented, then it is possible that the statistical methods for any report published prior to 2006 may be using a discredited analysis method. (e.g. PETO) I would not regard these studies as being robust at all. [/QUOTE]
