  What is type 2 diabetes?  Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder syndrome characterized by insulin resistance with varying degrees of islet dysfunction.  The traditional treatment for diabetes is still the “5 horsemen” of health education, diet, exercise, self-monitoring and medication. Our previous studies have proven that Gastric Diversion Surgery has a definite therapeutic effect on Type 2 Diabetes with a clinical cure rate of 83%. (ADA) formulated the 2009 edition of the Global Diabetes Guidelines, which for the first time included gastric diversion surgery as one of the official diabetes treatment modalities. 2010 Chinese edition of the diabetes guidelines included gastric diversion surgery as one of the diabetes treatment modalities.
