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.

With Type 2 Diabetes the pancreas is still producing insulin. It's just that the body becomes desensitized to it and it's less effective. Most people are Type 2.
