Also worth noting that it is ENTIRELY UNCONTROVERSIAL to say that spending ~$4,000 a year per person on an integrated diet/exercise/medical program is extremely effective at controlling diabetes Virta did nothing that others have not already done without low-carb dietshttps://twitter.com/EAllen0417/status/1011706268874989568 …
Oh absolutely. Part of the high cost of Virta is the physician involvement, the DIRECT trial used nurses and/or dietitians

But where’s the analysis to claim “much cheaper” Much cheaper for whom?

To the health system. To be fair, the "much cheaper" comment comes from the manager of the obesity service where I work, I haven't seen the costs of the DIRECT trial compared directly with the $4,000USD a year cost of Virta
