I’ve read, you could actually reverse type 2 diabetes with keto diet.

Me too. However, I believe the statement is misleading. I plan to post additional articles that discuss this.

What I have read is that it does put diabetes into remission, but keto, by itself, doesn’t repopulate your pancreas with new cells.

However, there are at least two studies showing a fasting regimen with no more than a couple hundred calories for a few days can start stems cells to repopulate the pancreas. I may have posted one of these a year or so ago.

As long as you stay on the diet, and do it correctly, you can reverse type 2, but the diet is control, not cure.
