Helping You Start the Conversation

If you want to talk with your health provider about pursuing remission, our PDF letter can help shape the discussion.

The letter, which you can fill out with your health provider's name before printing it out, asks them to support you on your remission journey.

It describes how recent research breakthroughs have changed our understanding of type 2 diabetes, that it does not have to be a chronic and progressive condition. Contrary to conventional beliefs, new studies reveal that  remission is attainable through targeted nutritional interventions, such a low calorie diets, low carbohydrate diets and intermittent fasting. In 2022, Diabetes Canada even integrated a chapter dedicated to type 2 diabetes remission into its clinical practice guidelines.
 

The letter asks your health provider to encourage your motivation and to review and adjust your medications if needed.

​

The letter invites healthcare professionals to further explore therapeutic nutrition approaches for metabolically based chronic conditions, undergo training and certification, and collaborate with other practitioners experienced in this field to foster local communities of practice.

Together, we can change the narrative surrounding chronic diseases and empower patients on their journey to type 2 diabetes remission.
