Research on the use of a very low carbohydrate diet for diabetes treatment

There has been a study in the last few years where it was found that a very low carbohydrate (ketogenic) diet dramatically improved blood sugar makers and reduced medication use. After 1-year of following participants, the researchers found:

  • Significant weight loss

  • A reduced hemoglobin A1C, the marker of blood sugar regulation.

  • 94% reduced blood sugar medications 

  • Liver health improved 

  • The diet was well tolerated.

These are exciting findings and reveal that diet really can be medicine!
