Curious if they have any clearer definition of what they mean by “recently diagnosed.”

Based on the article, it looks like all patients were in their honeymoon period, which certainly makes for a substantial difference from what most would think of as remission - the difference between “clinical remission” and “clinical remission in very controlled circumstances while patients were still capable of producing some insulin.”

It’s pretty well known that LCHF reduces overall insulin requirements, and it’s not surprising that in new patients who are still capable of some production that LCHF would be enough to effectively lengthen the honeymoon period, but in any case I’d argue that the word remission is a pretty poor choice of words for describing the effect seen.

Yeah, this article was frustrating because there was literally nothing surprising in it. It basically said that during the honeymoon period they could get by without insulin on a LCHF diet, and then after the honeymoon period they had to go back on insulin even WITH the LCHF diet.

That isn't news, and the title of this article is dangerously misleading.
