My friend is a doctor. He works with patients to reverse T2D every day of the week. He's amazed that there's any debate whatsoever. So, pro-tip from me: find a doctor who answers "yes" to the question and work with them,

You might be able to "fake it til you make it" with some kinds of products, or business plans, or interactions with customers and partners. You can't really fake science. This may have been faking too hard in a place where ex
