Losing Weight Can Prevent and Cure Type 2 Diabetes

Gaining weight is highly stressful to your body.  Sooner or later it is likely to break down in response to the stress and “give up” trying to cope with the abuse.  Western Medicine marks such a tipping point with the label type 2 diabetes, which essentially means your ability to regulate blood sugar is more or less broken.  In reality, it was heading that direction as your fasting blood sugar elevates above 90.  A new study shows that taking off a significant chunk of weight over a two-year period can reverse the diabetes and/or prevent it, even if you still have more weight to lose.

This new study is consistent with my clinical observations.  Many people following the Leptin Diet and actually engaging the process of weight loss have no trouble ridding themselves of type 2 diabetes.  Emphasis needs to be placed on the phrase “engaging the process of weight loss.”  While it is my belief, based on considerable science, that the Leptin Diet is the most effective and safest way to lose weight over the long haul, losing weight in any manner seems to be of benefit.

It is also important to understand that you do not need to reach a goal weight to prevent or reverse type 2 diabetes.  While it is important for your own personal metabolic health that you do reach an appropriate goal weight sooner or later, this is not required for most people in order to prevent or reverse type 2 diabetes.  In other words, if you can simply get your body going in the right direction and take off a significant chunk of weight, then you have created a metabolic environment within your body that is far less likely to have or develop type 2 diabetes.  All you have to do is keep consistently moving in the right direction.

This is very encouraging because it means you do not have to be perfect before you experience a lot of health benefits that prevent disease. 

Researchers used BMI Body Mass Index. BMI is a statistical measurement of body weight based on the person's height and weight. It does not actually measure the body fat percentage but provides an estimation of a healthy body weight. Normal BMI for adults ranges from 18.5-24.9 (body mass index) to predict obesity in patients.  BMI Body Mass Index.
