[QUOTE="rmz80, post: 1705552, member: 306547"] I believe doctors typically use an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) as a method which can help to diagnose instances of diabetes or insulin resistance. [I]In this test you take a fixed dose of glucose of about 70 grams (after fasting for 12 hours); then; People without diabetes Fasting value (before test): under 6 mmol/L At 2 hours: under 7.8 mmol/L People with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) Fasting value (before test): 6.0 to 7.0 mmol/L At 2 hours: 7.9 to 11.0 mmol/L Diabetic levels Fasting value (before test): over 7.0 mmol/L At 2 hours: over 11.0 mmol/L[/I] I would say anyone achieving the non diabetic range after this test has reversed the diabetes whatever their adopted diet plan.
