I’d read about this 800 calorie diet thing, and when I saw her in January I asked her about strict calorie control to get the diabetes in check, and she thinks it’s nonsense. I hope she’ll have taken the time to get up to date with recent research by the time I see her again.
She probably is very up to date. Type 2 can be put into remission in some people by a VLC. It cant for everyone and it doesnt always last. Thats what the current research shows. If you are overweight then the VLC is a very good idea. If not then I wouldnt be pinning my hopes on it. Low carb is much more important for managing type 2
