My husband suffered for 25 years with type 2 diabetes. After going on low carb, in 3 months he came off of 43' units of insulin, in 9 months he lost 80 pounds, within a short time he eliminated severe painful neuropathy in both feet that he had for nearly 15 years and consequently eliminated pain medication [Neurotin], went from being unable to walk 75 feet to walking in 2 5K races,eliminated profuse night sweats, and more. He recenly decided to lose more weight. His total weight loss now is 95 pounds. He lost the 80 ponds.9 years ago and never put it back. Low carb and exercise work.
