Introduction
Many experts argue that Type 2 diabetes is an incurable disease that gets worse with the passage of time. As a matter of fact, this is what is taught and every medical text book: Type 2 diabetes is a gradually progressive chronic disease that affects all the organ systems of the body, it can be managed but not reversed.
But new research raises the tantalizing possibility that drastic changes in lifestyle may reverse the disease in some people. As it turns out, type 2 diabetes is the direct result of accumulation of visceral fat or belly fat in the midsection of the body. Studies have also shown that obese individuals who have bariatric surgery frequently see the condition vanish long before they lose any weight at all, suggesting that metabolic diseases are due to hormonal imbalance which can be corrected!
