Eating a healthy diet can start reversing type 2 diabetes—but its benefits can be accelerated if you start to combine it with mini fasts.
Following the 5:2 fasting diet—where you dramatically reduce the amount of food you eat two days a week—has the biggest impact on blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity.
It’s better than other fasting techniques, such as restricting eating to a 10-hour window, say researchers from Zhengzhou University in China.
They tested three different fasting methods on a group of 90 obese people with type 2 diabetes, who followed the diets for three months. They either did intermittent fasting—the 5:2 approach—or ate for a specific time window or reduced their calorie intake throughout the time of the study.
Although all the fasting diets reduced blood sugar levels and weight, the greatest loss was among those who were intermittently fasting.
