An orthopaedic surgeon has found a low-carbohydrate, low-sugar diet is helping his patients defer surgery - and divert them off the path to type 2 diabetes.
Sydney knee specialist Dr Doron Sher had relatively young patients experiencing issues and knew they could avoid a knee replacement if they lost weight, because that would reduce the load on the joint.
However, he found these patients were returning to him having not lost the weight, despite their best efforts.
"So what we were looking for was something to understand why the dietary advice wasn't working and that's when we came across the whole concept of insular resistance and inflammation," Dr Sher said.
Dr Sher, working with exercise physician Dr Paul Mason, had these patients take on a low-carbohydrate, low-sugar diet that avoided processed foods.
"We finally understood why people weren't losing weight and then we could help them lose weight," Dr Sher said.
"And once they've lost weight, they then get rid of a lot of the inflammation in their body, then they don't have the knee pain and they can defer their surgery for months, years."
Many of these people would eventually need knee replacement surgery due to having already developed arthritis, he said, but having lost the weight that eventual surgery was much less risky.
