Does it have to be supervised?

Diabetes management and remission must always be supervised by a team of experts comprising your diabetologist, nutritionist, and fitness coach. Trying to achieve remission by yourself can be dangerous and cause untoward complications.

Can people with complications attempt remission?

People with complications associated with diabetes or other health conditions may not be good candidates for remission. Consult your doctor to determine if you are a good candidate for diabetes remission.

Can people of all ages attempt remission?

Remission is not recommended for individuals with diabetes who are younger than 18 years.

Why should you aim for remission in the early days of diagnosis?

Remission is achievable if you lose weight as soon as possible after your diabetes diagnosis. But, some people have been able to successfully put their diabetes into remission even years after being diagnosed with diabetes. You must aim for remission in the early days after diagnosis because the earlier you try, the lesser the complications you have and the more successful your remission will be.

What if I don’t achieve remission?

While remission aims to get you off your diabetes medications completely, it may not be possible in some people. However, you must understand that reducing the number or dosage of medications is also an achievement, as it can help you avoid long-term side effects caused by them.
