Um... Barnard only compared his diet to the ADA-recommended, pharmaceutical company-sponsored diet full of refined carbs and sugars.
Barnard's own research study lowered HbA1c from 8.05% to 7.71%. That's not reversal. "Normal" HbA1c is 4.6% to 5.4%.
Compared to low-carb diets his diet fails diabetics. In all studies of low-carb vs. low fat (even vegan) diets for diabetes, low-carb is dramatically better.
Recent japanese studies lowered HbA1c by 3.6 percent. Barnard lowered it 1/10th that...
Okay, I wasn't obese by any stretch, but I found I couldn't drop those last 10 pounds while I was vegetarian. Then I went vegan, and bye, bye 10 pounds! Not having to deal with cheese cravings anymore is what did it for me. :) I eat a healthy, balanced diet, work out, and I wasn't even trying to lose weight (I was more concerned with planning a healthy diet and getting all the necessary vitamins, minerals, etc.). The weight loss just happened, without any struggle! :)
In just 6 months I've lost 20kgs of fat and my eye sight has been the best in 2 years some days I dont even need reading classes, my blood sugar has gone from a 25 to 5.4 with just healthy exercise and good natural food and I'm proud to say no medicines.When my eye sight started to fail it really scared me and made me take my health seriously, thanks to diabetes my health is much better, I'm even taking part in a 10klm fun walk soon.
