Reads like an ad to me. I was diagnosed with T2D last November (Tuesday before Thanksgiving...bummer). At the time of my diagnosis I was certainly not obese and have lost weight since as I have become aware of sugar/carb intake whereas before I didn't pay any notice. My situation is due to genetics which may be outside the scope of the article, but there is no mention of that fact.

I came in with high hopes reading this but lost interest at "To date, the only clinically proven way to reverse T2D has been bariatric surgery". Nope.

Yeah, that's the unfortunate bit if you're regular weight already, you make the usual lifestyle adjustments and hope for the best. It's much easier to solve the T2D problem when it's co-morbid with obesity than someone with bad luck.
