The 8-Week Blood Sugar Diet

I've completed 3 days on Dr. Moseley's 8-Week Blood Sugar Diet and I'm liking it. The diet is low calorie - 800 per day - and based on the Mediterranean style with a low carb emphasis. I'm going lower carb than he would have a person go and working to keep up a decent level of protein and fat. There is a big and long-term study with humans in the UK on very low calorie diets and reversing type 2 diabetes. The interest sprang from a small study by researcher Dr. Roy Taylor using a 600 calorie diet on type 2 diabetics with excellent results "reversing" the disease. Dr. Taylor prefers to say the disease is "in remission." I suppose that is true because if you stop doing what it takes to keep the tendency at bay the blood sugar issues will return. What Dr. Taylor found (through imaging) is that fat around the liver and pancreas are at the root of blood sugar issues. A person can actually be normal weight and have this fat storage. While the fat around the liver is fairly quickly dissolved through weight loss, the fat around the pancreas takes a little longer to remove. Interestingly, he says some people may have to get their weight in the lower ranges of normal to restore their insulin sensitivity - that how the body responds is quite individual.

BTW, though my weigh-in reflects .2 weight loss, I actually started at a higher weight and have lost 6 lbs since I started this 3 days ago.

Thanks, April ( ;) my buddy). Yes, the "fat pancreas" issue was new info for me too. It perhaps explains my non-fat parents having type 2 diabetes and the family's genetic tendency to it. Maybe there is something about the genes that causes fat to develop around the pancreas? I'm trying very hard to escape this disease.

Sounds interesting, Trackin! I am glad you have found a diet you are liking. Diabetes is a tough road, and I am meeting a friend today who had been taking medicine for it, and I wonder how he gets away with some of his diet. He like to drink. Have a great one, and good seeing you on here again. Good luck!
