I need someone who control his type 2 diabetes with the ornish diet which is fat vegetarian no sugar or simple carbs...

And maybe the secret is the no sugar nor simple carbs

The secret is lots of veggies, fruits, and whole grains. The calorie density is low so it's easy to stay in a normal calorie range or even a deficit which is key for reducing risk of type 2 diabetes. Fat, especially Saturated fat causes insulin resistance. Many studied show this. Please show me any long term studies or a culture that are metabolically healthy on long term keto diets. Take a look at Virta health. Tons of money spent on low carb diets that achieved very little.

Try a book like "fiber fueled". That's a diet that is actually sustainable.
