Type 2 Diabetes Reversal-is it possible?

In a nutshell..

Low carb and keto for doctors

Contrary to old paradigm that type 2 diabetes is a chronic, progressive disease, recent evidence has shown that it is possible to entirely reverse it!

Just that, as healthcare professionals, we need to open our mind and change our mindset to embrace this new development in the diabetes treatment!

It all started with findings from type 2 diabetic obese patients who underwent Bariatric surgeries. It was found that  in majority of them, their diabetes went into remission! How it is possible, just by making their stomach smaller, their diabetes vanished into thin air?

Bariatric surgery and diabetes remission: Who would have thought it?

Prof Roy Taylor and his team at Newcastle University was one of pioneering researchers  in type 2 diabetes reversal using very low calorie diet.  His recent DiRECT Study, published in Lancet, showed 46% remission rate in the intervention group.Very impressive!

In recent Virta Trial, where 262 participants were induced into nutritional ketosis with ketogenic diet, HbA1c were reduced on average, from 7.6% from baseline to 6.6% after 10 weeks. The study is ongoing for 2 years and we expect very exciting result!

Newest data from Virta clinical trial, published in Diabetes Therapy, showed outcomes of their diabetes reversal programme after 1 year. Here are among the results:


  • 64% of patients reversed type 2 diabetes!
  • 94% of patients either reduced insulin usage or removed it altogether!








Dr Jason Fung, Nephrologist from Toronto, Canada, actively disseminating knowledge of intermittent fasting to his diabetic and had shown very promising result in reversing the disease. You can find many great articles in his blog:
