Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial disease ,which means it has many causes, but all these factors ultimately lead to carbohydrate intolerance and insulin resistance in the patient leading to development of symptoms.
Type 2 diabetes reversal as defined by American diabetic association(ADA) and European association for study of diabetes (EASD) is maintenance of euglycemia (normal blood sugae) without any medicine for more than three months
Because the type 2 diabetes mellitus disease continues to progress and gets worse and worse with time ( even if your blood sugar level is under normal levels with medicines) with the current conventional treatment prescribed by the doctors all over world currently !
This means if the patient is eating one medicine today for controlling blood sugar, he or she will have to eat many medicines to control blood sugar and to prevent complications, in 5 to 15 years, in most of the cases.
Hence type 2 diabetes is called a chronic progressive disease with the current conventional treatment. Hence, it is very important to reverse it with diet treatment to stop the progression of this disease and prevent complication.
LCHF diet is low carbohydrate, increased natural healthy fat diet. The total amount of fat is not much increased but its percentage distribution is increased.
Time Restricted Eating is eating during a restricted /limited period of time
This Low carb treatment for diabetes reversal is a well researched and scientifically proven to reverse diabetes in majority of eligible patients, in a safe and effective way. There are plenty of credible scientific research evidence to support this.

However, in research studies it has been seen that this diet increases good cholesterol and reduces bad cholesterol and also reduces Triglycerides and increases HDL leading to overall heart risk reduction in the patients. Also, the increased cholesterol in these patients comes down to original level if the patient starts eating high carb diet again !
Low carbohydrate dietary treatment with higher amount of healthy natural fat is a safe, effective and scientifically proven treatment for diabetes reversal as per most of the credible scientific research and scientific evidence. Any controversy which is created is only by those people who lack the latest scientific research knowledge and who are not able to interpret the scientific data appropriately.
