How can you put type 2 Diabetes into remission?

Whether you have recently received a type 2 diabetes diagnosis or have had the condition for a while, there are steps you can take to prevent the worsening of the condition and even put it into remission.  Additionally, these steps may help you avoid, reduce, or even eliminate medications.

In the past, type 2 diabetes was thought to be something that could not get better. You could only slow the rate of decline. Remission was not something talked about or hoped for. Today, things are different. Remission is possible.

 

If remission is something you would like to try, our free downloadable ebook can help you get started! It describes what diabetes is, why it happens, and how it is diagnosed. It also describes the underlying issue of insulin resistance that was silently developing for decades that is the root cause of your rising blood sugar. Most importantly, the book then shares the growing body of research about how to improve your blood glucose levels and even put your condition into remission.
 

How? The ebooklet describes the evidence for four approaches:

​

1. A low carbohydrate or very low carb (ketogenic) diet.

2. A low calorie diet, with support from your care provider with specially formulated meal replacement products.

3. Intermittent fasting, where you only eat during set times

4. Medical management, specifically bariatric surgery or the use of GLP-1 receptor agonists (both of which necessitate long-term dietary change.)

​

Since the first three ways you can do at home by changing how and what you eat, the ebooklet focuses on the details of those two food-first approaches. We also help you plan for common food-based challenges, learn how to track key health measure to chart your progress, and also incorporate other lifestyle changes for better health, such as improving sleep, reducing stress and getting regular fun, physical movement.
