While there is no "remedy" for type 2, there's plenty of help out there. Atkins is not it. Atkins' low carb concept is a good one for diabetics, in theory, due to the low carb idea, but in practice, it fails to address the underlying issue of fat. If one were to study those who have type two diabetes, it wouldn't take long for them to realize that fat is what causes type two diabetes. Here's more on that: http://www.sciencentral.com/articles/vie...

What helps type twos the most is lowering the insulin resistance. The only way to do that is to reduce your fat consumption. The Atkins diet (especially dairy products) is a horrible diet for that. Also, you need to address the carbohydrate issue. Refined carbs (bread, pasta, and the like) must be limited. The only viable answer to solving the insulin resistance issue is to go an a low carb AND low fat diet.... i.e. mostly raw vegetable diet. By doing that, you reduce your fat consumption, your refined carb consumption, and maximize your nutrient consumption. This all adds up to lowering your blood glucose while maximizing your nutrition and giving your body what it needs in order to make the best use out of the foods you give it.
