The effect of a low-carbohydrate, ketogenic diet versus a low-glycemic index
diet on glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Conclusions: Dietary modification led to improvements in glycemic control
and
medication reduction/elimination in motivated volunteers with type 2
diabetes. The diet
lower in carbohydrate led to greater improvements in glycemic control, and
more
frequent medication reduction/elimination than the low glycemic index diet.
Lifestyle
modification using low carbohydrate interventions is effective for improving
and
reversing type 2 diabetes.
