CONTENT AND LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

It is estimated that around 13.6 million people are now at increased risk of type 2 diabetes in the UK. But evidence shows that for some people, type 2 diabetes may no longer be considered a progressive condition and remission is possible.

The evidence for dietary strategies to achieve this goal is gaining momentum but what do we currently know and where are the knowledge gaps? We know that no one nutritional intervention will work in 100% of people, so it is important to have many tools in the toolkit.

In this Journal Club session, we’ll be appraising a recently published narrative review exploring the different dietary strategies for type 2 diabetes remission.

Denise Robertson’s research interests involve the complex interplay between the gastrointestinal tract and whole-body physiology, in both health and diseased states – with the gut now implicated as both the cause and treatment for many conditions such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.
