Even lean type 2 diabetics can reverse their condition with a special soup and smoothie. Experts say that for this you need to lose only 10% of body weight.
Scientists from Newcastle University believe that even slender people with type 2 diabetes can noticeably improve their well-being through a diet of soups and smoothies. It will help them lose 10% of their body weight. For example, a person who weighs 83 kg will lose approximately 8 kg. The results of this study support the concept that there is a personal fat threshold for almost every person.
Type 2 diabetes can be treated with diet
If a person has type 2 diabetes, they likely have more body fat than they need and can handle, even if they look thin on the outside. Excess fat enters the liver and pancreas, interfering with their normal functionality, which provokes type 2 diabetes. And the more extra fat in the pancreas, the less insulin it produces.
Calorie control helps even slim diabetics
This explains why some type 2 diabetics look much leaner than their friends who don't have any diabetes. The disease occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin, or this hormone does not work properly, which increases blood sugar levels. A significant number of diabetics are victims of obesity, but about 15% are of normal weight. However, this is erroneous – people are slender only on the outside, but full on the inside. And this very internal fat can be removed with the right diet, which will significantly improve their health. (READ MORE)
