1Department of Emergency Medicine, Max Super Specialty Hospital, New Delhi, India.
Abstract:
Diabetes has been well established as one of the deadliest chronic diseases globally. Currently, India is known as the diabetes capital of the world although this disease had been documented in the country for centuries. Current treatment strategies center around oral hypoglycemic drugs, insulin, and the standard 'diabetic diet.' Nonetheless, millions continued to suffer from this chronic disease and its multiple complications. We herein present a case involving a male patient suffering from diabetes for 20 years despite being on medications and a diabetic diet who finally achieved remission of diabetes and hypertension by removing carbohydrates and following a carnivore diet.
