00:00A supervised diet and exercise trial found 54% remission in adults with early-onset type 2 diabetes.
00:07Researchers found just 4% entered remission with usual care over the same six months.
00:12The trial included 96 adults in England and Canada who had obesity and weren't using insulin.
00:18All had been diagnosed before age 45.
00:21That matters because younger people face more years with diabetes and a higher risk of complications.
00:27The program started with a strict low-calorie diet and supervised exercise.
00:32Then participants moved into weight maintenance and independent workouts.
00:36Doctors and dieticians closely supervised the program.
00:39Remission meant blood sugar stayed below the diabetes threshold without medication for several months.
00:45But the small study's strict diet could be difficult to follow.
00:48And researchers still don't know how long that remission will last.
