Abstract
- Unhealthy weight gain and diabetes are global challenges that threaten not only the well-beings of hundreds of millions of persons but also the global economy. The authors in this article describe two overlapping stories, one is about a 150-year-old diet, known as the Banting Diet, which is similar to the Atkins or Keto Diet, and the other is about a provider-patient relationship story that helped the patient make lifestyle modifications that were effective in significant weight loss, improved quality of life, and reduced need for exogenous insulin for Type 2 diabetes. Both of the stories are from England but might be useful worldwide. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
