Launches in Newcastle and to be hopefully rolled out across the country.

The programme is open to 260 people starting over the next 18 months. The service has just started in Newcastle but in other areas of the country people have lost an average of 12kg (almost 2 stone) over the first three months of the programme.

The ground-breaking DiRECT study and other research at Newcastle University has shown that the combination of a low-calorie diet and lifestyle support can help many people put their Type 2 diabetes into remission.

 
I wonder if the paper from Oxford published today links to this work as well in that, for some people, getting blood sugar under control for a period of time allows the beta cells to start responding again.
