They wouldn't file infringement suits for not eating. They'd file them against people who build a business out of controlling the diet of diabetic patients in this particular way. And given that it's been studied, health insurance companies are willing to pay for diabetic patients to have their diet controlled in this particular way. IMO, it's not an attempt to monopolize the results of the research. Rather, it's an attempt to monopolize extracting money out of health insurance companies that are only willing to pay for proven treatments.
