Diabetes Reversal

We have patients who have reversed a diagnosis of IGT and impaired GTT - these are the 2 prediabetic states

We also have patients who

	have come off insulin and are now taking tablets
	have reduced the total quantity of oral tablets they use
	have come off tablets and now controlled with diet and exercise
	have been controlled by diet and exercise and are so good for all intents they are no longer diabetic - but we still keep them under surveillance

 

What do we know about diabetes reversal at this clinic?

Two factors!

	Daily exercise on most days of the week - at least 45 mins a day
	Weight loss to achieve a BMI below 30 to reduce medication and achieving somewhere around BMI 25-27 to come off tablets

We will keep you informed
