I came across this article on a company named Virta Health that is trying to use LCHF to fix Diabetes. I do NOT know anything about the company other than what is in the article. Hope someone knows something about it. I really hope it is successful.
Virta Health - LCHF startup to fight diabetes
Dr. Peter Attia is pretty well-respected and recommends Virta Health in the blog post below and his reasoning seems pretty sound to me.

@Glenn_Graham I can’t read your link because Forbes blocks Adblock Plus that I use but is this the study the article is referencing?
Meet Peter Attia, MD:
He’s definitely one of the luminaries of LCHF.
I heard that he had split from NuSI (sad that that turned out to be a damp squib) and wondered what he was up to now. I guess this it, among other things probably.
He’s one of my favs! He gave a great interview on STEM-Talk. If you haven’t heard it, it’s worth listening to.

I’m excited to hear how this goes since the folks involved are all super kick ass. Sami Inkinen is the CEO and the guy who rowed across the Pacific with his lady utilizing a keto diet. I’m curious how much it costs to join and if they’ll expand their focus to more health concerns.
Parted company yes…don’t think it was a split exactly. Gary Taubes has talked about it in interviews, ISTR. And I think Peter Attia did write about it in his blog.
