Being overweight or obese increases the risk of developing insulin resistance and diabetes; about 85-90% of people with type 2 diabetes are overweight or obese.<\/p>\n<p>Nutritional guidelines for diabetes rely on moderating carbohydrate intake and promoting weight loss.  Recent meta- analysis suggest that weight loss, and not any particular diet, is the most important intervention for improving glucose levels (1,2). A recent Cochrane review of dietary advice for diabetes control concluded, \u201cThere are no high quality data on the efficacy of the dietary treatment of type 2 diabetes\u201d(3).  <\/p>\n<p>There is, however, evidence in short term studies, that dietary composition can affect glucose control independent of weight loss. Thus studies of isocaloric Paleolithic-type diets demonstrate improvement of glucose levels and insulin sensitivity. Which component(s) of the \u201cpaleo-diet\u201d is responsible for these improvements are not known.  The diet is high in fiber and very large increases in fiber in the diet can lower glucose levels. Another possibility is that the quantity or quality of foods can alter neuro-hormonal control of appetite and satiety. In our presentation, we will review evidence available from clinical trials comparing dietary treatments for diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>1. Aucott LS. Influences of weight loss on long-term diabetes outcomes.
