New research found one in three people saw their diabetes go into remission, and some say it helped them lose more than 2.5 stone in weight
Thousands of people with type 2 diabetes could be offered a ‘brilliant’ new NHS diet after researchers found it can help put the disease into remission. Researchers say that of the people who tried the ‘soup and shake’ diet, nearly one in three saw their type 2 diabetes go into remission. And the 800-calorie-a-day diet is now set to be offered to thousands of people living with the condition across the UK.
Of the 1,740 people who started the diet before January 2022, 945 completed a full year of the programme. 'Life-changing benefits' Dr Clare Hambling, NHS England’s national clinical director for diabetes and obesity, said: ‘It’s brilliant that these findings show a large number of those who completed it have seen life-changing benefits including major weight loss and type 2 diabetes remission.’
‘We hope to see even more people benefiting in years to come and an increase in referrals to the programme especially for people recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and in younger people where the impact of type 2 diabetes and remission from it is greatest.’
