[QUOTE="borofergie, post: 205531, member: 33342"] I think that they used Optifast in the study, because it has a proven record of reducing fat in the liver. It's used prior to bariatric surgery on morbidly obese people to rapidly reduce the size of the the liver, so that the surgeon has a little more elbow room when he's operating down there. I don't know, but I'd wager that Patch's Optislim will do the same thing. It's 600kcal a day which is the critical thing, not some magic ingredient in Optifast. Both are designed to be complete Very Low Calorie Diets, so they should do an equivalent job of keeping you (just about) alive for 8 weeks. You'll have to stop posting on the Diabetes.co.uk Forum once you're 'cured' Patch :P [/QUOTE]
