[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2292588, member: 196898"] Actually it seems I made a mistake and loaded up an early version of the study. This is the real study paper, and it uses the MRI scanners properly to measure hepatic volume and uses spectroscopy to evaluate what was there. It is a better study than I thought above. and does seem to demonstrate that the keto diet burns liver fat at a faster rate than the low calorie diet. However, I note that the VLC diet is calorie restricted at 1200 kcal, not the 800 kcal of the Newcastle diet, so their comparative study is not quite like for like. [URL]https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3076656/[/URL] However, The team do not consider any long term effect, or attempt to establish if there is any form of remission for T2D. Note that the HbA1c from both arms end up with similar values and also with similar weight loss overall, So this study does not quite match the work done by Prof Taylor. It seems to be interested in NAFLD only. Also note that the HbA1c is used as a comparison, but the duration of the study intervention is only 2 weeks so not sure if that is valid. [/QUOTE]
