    the best diabetes care that is currently available"

    &he ai. is to !nd out i$ this intensive weight .anage.ent lan is the best way

    to hel eole with &ye 2 diabetes beco.e non-diabetic and re.ain that way"

    The new research

    What is the background to this research?

    eight gain and obesity are the .ost i.ortant ris) $actors $or &ye 2 diabetes

    and the reason why &ye 2 has beco.e a global eide.ic that a/ects

    overweight eole o$ all ages"

    urgical oerations such as gastric banding and gastric byass are otential

    solutions because they lead to dra.atic weight loss which can ut &ye 2 into

    re.ission $or u to 04 o$ atients" uch treat.ents5 however are e6ensive

    invasive and carry a ris) o$ surgical co.lications all o$ which .ean they can

    In 2011 a Diabetes UK research trial at 'ewcastle University tested a low-calorie

    li8uid diet in 11 eole as an alternative to weight loss surgery and heled

    i.rove our understanding o$ how &ye 2 diabetes can be ut into re.ission"

    ight wee)s using the diet heled those who too) art to lose weight and

    reduced the a.ount o$ $at in their liver and ancreas" Doing so heled to restoretheir insulin roduction and ut their &ye 2 diabetes into re.ission" &hree

    .onths later so.e had ut weight bac) on but .ost still had nor.al blood

    glucose control" :owever this study was only a !rst ste ; it was designed to

    better understand the biological rocesses in the body and only $ollowed its

    articiants $or a relatively short eriod o$ ti.e" It was also carried out in a

    research setting" e do not yet understand the long-ter. e/ect o$ these diets

    or how a low-calorie diet .ight be used to bring about and .aintain &ye 2

    diabetes re.ission as art o$ routine +# care"

    What is the aim of the new study?

    &he new DiRECT? who are

    overweight and have been diagnosed with &ye 2 diabetes in the last si6 years"

    #articiants at hal$ the ractices will be allocated to receive the current best-

    available &ye 2 diabetes care while those at the re.aining ractices will receive

    a low-calorie li8uid diet $or between and 20 wee)s" &hose who co.lete the

    diet will then be gradually re-introduced to nor.al $ood over the ne6t two to

    Research which could proide a de"nitie (udgement on whether low-

    The #8< million research pro(ect funded by Diabetes &' will be carried

    out by researchers at ewcastle &niersity and the &niersity of

    lasgow8 $t aims to answer the question of whether losing weight on a

    low calorie liquid diet and keeping it oB using a structured3

    personalised support programme is a iable treatment for putting Type

    # diabetes into remission in the long-term8

    /rofessor Roy Taylor3 the lead researcher at ewcastle &niersity3 said1SWe know that changes in calorie intake can produce changes in body

    composition that3 at least in some people3 can put Type # diabetes into

    remission8 *ut this new study will ealuate how well people do using

    this approach and uncoer problems that might be faced8

    SWe are eGploring uncharted territory and along the way there will be

    challenges3 details to unrael3 and other questions to ask8 *ut $ beliee

    this study will lead to a quantum leap forward in our understanding of

    how best to manage Type # diabetes8

    The trial

    $n the trial3 / practices across %cotland and Tyneside will recruit

    people aged #2-4: who are oerweight and hae been diagnosed with

    Type # diabetes in the last siG years8 /articipants at half the practices

    will be allocated to receie the current best-aailable Type # diabetes

    care3 while those at the remaining practices will receie a low-calorie

    liquid diet of (ust F22 calories a day3 for between F and #2 weeks8 Those

    who complete the diet will then be gradually re-introduced to normal

    food oer the neGt two to eight weeks and will receie eGpert supportto help them maintain their weight loss in the long-term8

    happening inside the body during the diet8

    This will be the largest single research pro(ect Diabetes &' has eer

    funded in its 7;-year history8 $t followsa study from #2))that foundthat )) people with Type # diabetes who spent eight weeks on a low-

    calorie liquid diet all saw their insulin production return to normal and

    their Type # diabetes put into remission8 These "ndings backed up

    anecdotal reports and results from bariatric surgery to raise the

    prospect of transforming the way Type # diabetes is treated8

    *ut because the #2)) study was designed to better understand the

    biological processes in the body and only followed its participants for a

    relatiely short period of time3 scientists do not yet fully understand

    the long-term eBect of these diets8 This is why a longer and largerstudy is needed to "nd out whether the bene"ts of following such a

    restrictie diet outweigh any aderse eBects8 +lso3 the #2)) study was

    carried out in a research setting and so it is unclear whether such diets

    can be transferred to a larger scale as part of routine / care3 where

    large numbers of oerweight people with Type # diabetes are managed

    in the &'8

    *ecause of these unanswered questions3 Diabetes &' does not yet

    recommend low-calorie liquid diets to people with Type # diabetes8 *ut

    the charity is con"dent that the new study will answer these questionsand so gie the !% enough eidence to make a decision on whether

    low-calorie diets should be oBered as a routine treatment option8

    Dr atthew !obbs3 !ead of Research for Diabetes &'3 said1 SType #

    diabetes will always be a serious health condition but perhaps it wonAt

    always be seen as a condition that people hae to manage for the rest

    of their lies and that worsens ineitably oer time8 The #2)) study and

    eidence from bariatric surgery has shown us that it can be put into

    remission8 $f we can do this safely3 on a bigger scale and as part of

    routine care3 then following a low-calorie liquid diet would be a realgame changer in terms of reducing peopleAs risk of deastating health

    complications such as amputation and blindness8
