Abstract

Copyright © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.The new understanding of type 2 diabetes is essential for health care professionals to appreciate. It is a simple condition of accumulation of more fat than an individual's body can cope with. Losing around 15% of body weight reverses the underlying processes that caused the diabetes provided that the condition has not been present for too many years. If weight regain is avoided, long-term remission is possible. This is good news for people with type 2 diabetes. Copyright © 2020 John Wiley & Sons.
