What does remission mean for you?

Capacity: Bigger capacity means more contents to enjoy. It also means more weight to carry, but only if you fill it to the brim. For best insulation, buy a flask that’s slightly bigger (but not heavier) than you need, and leave a couple of centimetres of air at the top. We’ve included capacity and weight info for all our flasks below. Insulated cup: Good flasks also pay attention to the insulation of the detachable cup, if they have one. This is so your drink stays warm while you’re drinking it. Meanwhile, the outside stays cool, so you don’t risk burnt hands. People with Type 2 diabetes, and healthcare professionals, have told us their top research priority is ‘can the condition be reversed or cured’. We can now say, with respect to reversal, that yes it can. Now we must focus on helping people maintain their weight loss and stay in remission for life.” If a reusable travel mug is on someone's wish list this Christmas, you could be tempted to opt for a mug from popular brand Thermos.

The programme used in DiRECT is a huge improvement on previous management of type 2 diabetes, but future studies must seek even better ways to help maintain weight loss.” Kieran Ball was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2013 and started DiRECT the following year. Kieran lost 22kg and put his type 2 diabetes into remission in the first year of the study. Having taken part in the DiRECT extension, he is still in remission today. Kieran said: To help us understand more about the longer term benefits of the programme, we carried on funding DiRECT for a further three years. New findings from a three-year extension of our landmark DIRECT study show that nearly a quarter (23%) of participants who were in remission from type 2 diabetes at two years in the original trial remained in remission at five years. Professor Mike Lean, Head of Human Nutrition at Glasgow University, diabetes specialist physician at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, and co-primary investigator of DiRECT, said:Depending on how you plan to use the flask, there are several accessories that can come in handy. Some of them include multiple lid options, a long spoon, carry handle/strap, a stainless steel serving cup, a tea hook and much more. Thermos is celebrated for its fantastic insulation technology, and this stylish flask is no exception. With Thermos vacuum insulation, your favourite drinks will retain their temperature for as long as you need, with hot drinks staying hot for 10 hours, and cold ones staying cold for 24 hours. So, whether you’re trekking through the snow or sweating in the gym, this flask will be a welcome companion to give you exactly what you need. DiRECT inspired the NHS low-calorie diet programme, granting many more people with type 2 diabetes the opportunity to put the condition into remission. We now need to understand how best to support more people to maintain weight loss and stay in remission in the long term.” Losing weight can improve your blood sugar levels too, even if they don’t go below the diabetes range, by helping your body to better respond to the insulin you’re making.

So it fits the bill whether you’re up a windswept mountain in need of some central heating, or basking on the beach making the most of a summer heatwave. The DiRECT five-year follow up shows that the rapid weight loss programme brings about considerable weight loss at five years with low-intensity support. The most important question now is how the follow-up programme can be even more successful at an affordable cost.” What's next?

DiRECT has 100% been life changing. Those few months on the low-calorie diet were hard, but I’d do it again no question. DiRECT was an opportunity to reboot the way I was living and I’m so grateful for what being healthy has given me the opportunity to do. It’s amazing that what I went through all those years ago is still benefiting me today.
