I think this is a fair and valid comparison of 2 of the 4 possible paths to T2D remission:

Hey folks! I wonder if you can perhaps provide some advice through maybe your own experiences or knowledge that you might have. I'm a long-time Type 2 diabetic with insulin assistance, taking Metformin twice a day. I'm quite overweight (over 22 stone) and recent blood tests have shown that my...

Hello all, I'm wondering if any of you have tried the drug PIOGLITAZONE ( 30mg daily )- what do you think of it ? I'm a a type 2 - genetic, diagnosed about 2 years ago. I was always slim and now I'm practically skinny. I eat very little carbs, I "survive" mostly on salads, cheese, nuts, full...

Not a thing I ever get normally, but as a treat for missing all the bread, cakes, chocolate etc etc, I have a steak for tonight, 2 jersey Royal small potatoes and broccoli..can't wait !

There's a lot of these TED talk things on YouTube. Events with talks exploring ideas. Or something like that. Here an American talks insulin resistance, high BG, LCHF and "not having diabetes anymore".

I'm not due to see the practice nurse until next week, but could not resist asking about my latest blood test results as I had to call in at the surgery. I did not really know what to expect, as I have been - I thought - fairly relaxed about my diet. There has been chocolate, there have been...

Hi, Im a newbie on this forum but had a very frustrating conversation with my DSN yesterday. Received a new pump, the Medtroinic 640G, going well but its suspending a lot. My DSNs response was "well you really should be eating at least 100gms of carbs a day" and that will sort that out? Err...

Just came across this from Diet Doctor, it's probably good advice for everyone looking to reduce their carbs not just people on Ketogenic diets https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/vegetables

Many of us on the Low carb diet know of the work of Professor Tim Noakes in promoting the diet, but it's hard to convince the orthodox beliefs of the medical profession. so this is great news - hopefully they will provide concrete evidence...

Hi all, I'm currently doing the DAFNE course which has left me a little confused after working with the DSN & dietician to sort out my BG levels. I've been low-carbing for around 2-3 months (with a few cheat weekends) with daily carbs adding to around 40g from veg/salad mostly. According to...

Advice to eat more fat is irresponsible and potentially deadly, Public Health England's chief nutritionist has said. Dr Alison Tedstone was responding to a report by the National Obesity Forum, which had suggested eating fat could help cut obesity and type 2 diabetes. The charity had said...

Has anyone ever tried doing pancakes using almond flour, ad soya or almond milk? Would this work? Currently, I do conventional pancakes but use powdered sweetener on them.
