Study Done by the CDC

A "No Sh*t Sherlock" report. Cut the carbs and you are more likely to put the symptoms into remission as less insulin is required to cope with the diet.

The study seems to be of type 2 diabetics who are on diet and exercise and do not take insulin.
 
unfortunately, the article merely mentions diet and exercise... not what diet was being done...

This is the Look Ahead trial which we discussed, somewhat accrimoniously before so I'll just give the links rather than say anything more on this trial.
The paper is an analysis on the effects of the trial on diabetes demonstrating features in those who were successful in diabetes control ( The earlier paper was about the primary endpoint heart disease) the the Look Ahead data . The diets are discussed in the earlier paper
The recommended diet is based on guidelines of the ADA and National Cholesterol Education program [96,97] and includes a maximum of 30% of total calories from total fat, a maximum of 10% of total calories from saturated fat, and a minimum of 15% of total calories from protein.
