[QUOTE="Sangre, post: 2167246, member: 427430"] This is not rocket science. There are 3 macronutrients: fat, carbs, and protein. The whole food, plant based, no oil vegan diet eliminates two of them. What is left? Carbs. I don’t think there is a diabetic on the face of this earth that can heal by eating mostly carbs. The theory is predicated on the idea that sugar doesn’t cause diabetes - fat does. So, if you eliminate fat from all oils and animal products, you can reverse it. I have never known anyone to reverse it this way. BS goes up and doesn’t come down. The other side of the argument, and this was definitely true for me, is that high carb, low fat diets promoted in the 70s and 80s have created the diabetes epidemic that corresponds, sadly, to this misguided advice. Want to learn more? Check out the latest science on this with Dr. Mowll on YouTube. I have had EXCELLENT results with a low carb, high fat diet because the fat keeps me full longer, reduces insulin and blood sugar, and I have lost weight. I will remain a fat burner instead of sugar burner the rest of my life and avoid all those over processed grains that harbor molds and fungus. Grass fed, free range, wild caught animal products and TONS of nonstarchy vegetables! This is how you heal your pancreas and liver and drive diabetes into remission. Throw in some exercise too!
