I can definitely attest to this, though I must say I've always thought this was the common consensus.
I'm a 15 year Type-1 diabetic. In the past 3 months, just by changing my habits, lifestyle decisions and diet I've have to cut my insulin by more than half. It has been an amazing journey, day by day my body is healing and seems to utilize the injections better more and more.
With all the people being diagnosed with Type-2 Diabetes, I hope this info becomes a bit more common place than I thought it was. Then people might start seeing the relationship between them drinking gallons of soda a day and their diabetes.
