Like other leading killers, especially heart disease and high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes may be an unfortunate consequence of dietary choices. There is hope, though, even if you already have diabetes. Indeed, even if you’ve been suffering with the disease for decades, you may be able to achieve a complete remission of type 2 diabetes through lifestyle changes.

One of the latest trials studied the effect of a strictly plant-based diet versus the conventional diabetic diet on blood sugar control of patients with type 2 diabetes. For the diabetic control diet, researchers calculated specific calorie and portion controls. On the plant-based diet, however, people could eat much as they want. (That’s one of the benefits of eating plant-based!)

What did researchers find after controlling for the greater abdominal fat loss in the plant-based group? Those who pretty much stuck to the more healthful plant-based diet dropped their A1c levels by 0.9 percent, which is what you may get taking the leading diabetes drug—but with only good side effects.

Chop up half a small pack of feta cheese into small squares and sprinkle on top with a handful of black olives. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar to taste. Enjoy!
