Hmmm. My mother was able to stop taking insulin for her type 2 by changing her diet after doctors told her she would need insulin for the rest of her life. Are you saying it was all in her head?

I have no idea why people keep saying this.

Please remember that this changes with age, diet and activity levels. If you can fine tune the diet and monitor glucose levels using CGM/AGM's to precise levels over each and every minute throughout the day/week/years., then it is pretty well possible to get a lot more mileage with the diet alone. Glucose spikes are easy to miss unless monitored this way and could easily be more damaging.
