It is distressing for me to read what I consider to be arrant nonsense like this. The authors are ignoring the facts to further their academic apologetics for overweight children. Nearly 100% of these children with "diabetes" would be cured by losing weight. These are children, without a source of income other than an allowance from their parents, who can buy food only with the money from that source. They eat at home where the parents can control their intake. To argue they cannot lose weight is ridiculous. Instead of studying what combination of oral medications is best, the concentration should be on convincing parents to make their children lose weight. And if the parents also limit their calories, more the better.

No one needs a drug to reverse type 2 diabetes. All of this information was taken from the Spirit Happy Diet people in Denmark. Diabetes has been reversed in over 10,000 people by using a specialized diabetes diet. The diet also reversed body fat in people trying to lose weight. Scientists showed food chemicals is the cause of almost all diabetes. They also showed how to reverse your own diabetes without medications.

I can't believe that parents are so neglectful to their child's health that they allow them to have a lifestyle where they have type 2 diabetes.
What is wrong with people these days?
(And yes, I understand that there's probably 1% that wasn't caused by a parent allowing their kid to live in such an unhealthy way.)
