Effects Of Vegan Diet On Diabetes Continue To Impress
Filed in archive Diet on July 31, 2006
We recently reported on the benefits of a vegan diet for diabetics. Now, the news is even brighter: along with lower cholesterol and weight loss benefits, researchers believe the diet is more effective than any oral diabetes drug. Many feel that a vegan diet is superior to even injectable insulin for Type 2 diabetics.
"The vegan diet represents a major departure from current diabetes diets, in that it placed no limits on calories, carbohydrates, or portions. "The diet appears remarkably effective, and all the side effects are good ones - especially weight loss and lower cholesterol," says lead researcher Neal D. Barnard, M.D., PCRM president and adjunct associate professor of medicine at the George Washington University. "I hope this study will rekindle interest in using diet changes first, rather than prescription drugs."
So do we!
