BREAKING: The biggest health care news of the year.

The Trump DOJ tonight just told the courts to dismantle pre-existing conditions protections and other consumer protections.

This may seem predictable, but these actions are unprecedented.

More coming. Follow if interested.

Interesting New recommendation for #t2dmanagement https://t.co/jryABitLYK

[Torafugu Tech @torafugutech]

Interesting take! Not sure I see the body of evidence to agree but as long as you expend more energy than you consume, weight loss should follow. #t2dmanagement https://t.co/iSiHwkl8oR

Thinking about juicing, cutting carbs or giving up fruit in a quest to lose weight? Think again. https://t.co/ssdExVcdmd - @NBCNewsBETTER

Primary care-led #weight management can put type 2 #diabetes into remission (DiRECT): an open-label, cluster-randomised trial #IDF2017 https://t.co/J0gEhyGalM

Brinkworth et al 2 year RCT lifestyle intervention - low carb (high unsaturated fat low saturated fat) versus high carb diet . Similar weight loss and hba1c reduction but less glycaemic variability and diabetes meds and favourable lipid changes with low carb after 12 months

[Torafugu Tech @torafugutech]

Great study in the Lancet shows that taking people off food & onto 600-700 calorie shakes for 3-5 months, re-training them to eat for another 2 months and giving them a plan. Hard work led to them losing 15kg and 46% of them going into remission & off meds https://t.co/koEjlJC2MW

Type-2 diabetes prevalence has nearly doubled since 1980, rising from 4.7% to 8.5% of adults in 2014. And rising.
