Vegan Ma-Pi Diet Bests "Conventional Treatment" for Diabetes in Recent RCT
What happens when you take 25 overweight-to-obese, type 2 diabetics and: increase their carbohydrate intake by around 100 g/day increase their absolute carbohydrate intake by 45% increase their carbohydrate percentage in the diet by over 25% of total calories have them consume over 300 grams of carbohydrate in a day decrease their caloric intake modestly (< 200 cal/day*) cut 50 g/day of fat from their diet reduce absolute fat intake by over 60% reduce fat to only 15% of total calories cut protein by almost 40 g/day cut absolute protein intake by roughly 40% accomplish all of this on a grain-heavy vegan diet What happens? Do they get fatter? See their glucose spiking and soaring and fear imminent amputation and blindness? No. What happened is this: This after only three weeks. Oh ... and 70% of the Ma Pi group dieters taking oral diabetes drugs at onset were able to get off their drugs.
