Can Type 2 Diabetes Be Reversed? What Research Says for South Asians

Researchers usually call reversal remission. It means HbA1c stays below the diabetes range without glucose-lowering medicine for a sustained period, but it is not the same as a permanent cure.

South Asians often develop insulin resistance at lower BMI, so modest weight loss can still matter. Large portions of refined carbs, sweet drinks, and fried snacks make remission harder.

The best approach is structured: reduce refined carbs, improve protein and fiber, lose weight safely, and maintain changes for months. Do not stop medicine without your doctor.
