During evolution of T2D, most pivotal factor is increasing Insulin resistance (IR).
Hence any maneuver, which reduces IR shall be a step towards reversal of T2D. Researches
by Roy Taylor have shown that ultra low caloric diet reduces excess fat deposited
in liver, pancreas and muscles and results into better Insulin action and often total
reversal of T2D. Ultra low caloric diet has poor compliance with attended risks so
we planned a moderate caloric diet, 1000-1200 calories per day, which is equivalent
to half of usual diet. It resulted into reduction of Insulin resistance (HOMA-IR),
weight, BP, Body fat% (BFP) and betterment of glycemia and lipid profile.
