A nice presentation of a study of 99 participants over 6 months and their diabetes control, using a low carb (20% of diet) intervention.

HbA1c down by 1% in 3 months!

20% is a low carb diet, not a ketogenic diet, its 85g of carbs, or about 340 kcal from carbs per day.

I’m really impressed at the improvements in this cohort with a mild dietary intervention, promising work!

    The study is about type 2 diabetes

    I think advanced insulin resistance would be a better name and identify there are many warning signs and issues before most people develop full blown type 2 diabetes

    The diet they used in the study was a low carbohydrate, less than 20% of intake is carbohydrates, which is about 85 g of carbohydrates per day.
