I have been eating a raw vegan diet since last November and have had tremendous success. I've lost 15 lbs, I'm taking 85% less insulin, and I have a lot more energy!
Please follow my blog for recipes, experiences, etc. 
This journey has inspired me so much that I'm currently looking into schools that offer holistic nutrition and health coaching. :-)

It always amazes me when a thread rises from the dead more than a year later!

I'm a vegetarian and completely supportive of people making whatever choices they make re diet (though Sally's mention of raw meat and parasites above did make me a bit queasy!) I think that some of the concerns about the thread (at least mine) is the title - implying that this (or any) diet can "heal" or "cure" Type 1 diabetes. Some of us really flinch at that sort of thing because we hate to see people given false hope.
