A discovery that could change the life for millions of patients suffering from type II diabetes was announced at the annual conference of the American Diabetes Association last week: British scientists managed to cure the disease by subjecting patients to a very strict diet, lasting eight weeks . And if the word "diet", even a strict one, does not sound very pleasant, do not rush to draw conclusions about the impossibility of the thing! In this way, the British scientists wanted to prove that type II diabetes is a reversible disease, as long as one controls one's energy balance.
