Dr. Fung basically said that beta cell death is likely related to fatty deposits on the pancreas. So there is a fatty liver/pancreas cycle that requires a significant time duration of fasting. Eventually beta cells continue to produce normal amounts of insulin. T2D is not a death sentence, it just requires motivation from the patients and up-to-date knowledge of the treatment physician.

Years ago, back in like 2011, I worked for pricedoc.com, this was our primary goal as well. Doctors wouldn't talk to us. Legally they're bound to not due to their insurance contracts. The only doctors we gained some traction with were plastic surgery, and dental. Because these doctors tend to deal more with cash patients. We didn't survive long. Maybe 14 months. Then sold our IP to some other startup called greatvets.com and we struggled like crazy to get exposure by vets to want to use our product. Same goal to provide cash prices. Good luck.

Excessive sweet food causes insulin resistance, which makes your body flood with insulin for even the smallest amount of sugar, it makes you constantly store fat over using it for energy, it's partially why you get food coma from eating a subway sandwich. Soybean oil may play a role in causing mutations in our gene expression making our systems run less ideally. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/01/200117080827.h...

CI/CO is ideal circumstances, just like falling from the sky, computing how long it takes to hit the ground is not as simple as it's 9.8ms/s^2*m, you have to build a differential equation that accounts for all the various force factors involved. Our biology are those various force factors playing on the rate of incorporation of the energy and how the system which consumes energy may alter pathways, and this is where we run into permutations of the metabolism that are not accounted for by CI/CO. We know that people with metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance cannot loose weight because their hyper sensitive to any amount of sugar, so insulin causes them to constantly store energy, but some people who eat a lot of calories get a massive energy boost like they almost got some caffeine in their system. Our biology has millions of biological permutations that ideal systems cannot account for.
