Tell that to Dr. Barnard:

Note that I said "reverse", not "cure", which is what I assume you're
taking issue with. My partner's numbers are all non-diabetic now; his
insulin doesn't react the way it did before; he is completely free of
medication, and can eat what he wants because mostly, he eats his
good-carb diet and gets lots of exercise. He may not be cured, but it's
as good as it gets, if you ask me.
