Expert publications on the NFI Protocol

Numerous scientific articles have been published on the NFI protocol, individualized meal plans designed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. To make them available to you at any time so you can read more about the NFI Protocol from the perspective of the experts, we have summarized them all on this page.

Specific, scientifically documented cases of the use of the NFI protocol in the treatment of type 2 diabetes can be found in the case reports. Among other things, they demonstrate and analyse the results achieved in diabetics with different disease duration – both in the newly diagnosed diabetic, in the diabetic with intermediate diabetes duration and in the long-standing diabetic.

Lectures on the NFI protocol, based on the chemical interaction of plant-based foods, have also become part of several congresses. One of them, for example, was the Congress of Internal Medicine, where the author of the NFI protocol, David Hickman, gave a lecture together with the diabetologist Janka Lejavová. Since the NFI protocol has been achieving proven positive results in diabetics since its inception, the topic of the NFI protocol could not have been absent several times at the Diabetology Days with international participation. For example, a study of the evaluation of the first NFI results on a cohort of more than 100 patients was presented by the Head of the Diabetology Department of the NEDU Ľubochňa Doc. MUDr. Emil Martinka, PhD.

You can read about the NFI protocol not only in our professional publications, but also in foreign media.

The story of my patient Peter

Author:MUDr. Janka Lejavová Diabetologická, ambulance Liptovský Mikuláš

The life of a diabetic is difficult and this is also felt by his family and close surroundings. The idea of an incurable disease, for which only more and more drugs are available over time, is not very optimistic. But fortunately, there is a new method of treating diabetes. In this article, Janka Lejavová, MD, tells the story of her particular patient, Peter. “Why did I decide to publish this story? Because it is exceptional. For me, as a doctor, and as a person. But especially for Peter, who, after 30 years of severe illness, can once again enjoy life with everything that belongs to it.” (Lejavová, 2020).

— Prečo NFI? —

Citát od Hippokrata na hlavnej stránke NFI protokolu "Nech jedlo je vaším liekom a liek je vaším jedlom".

Už Hippocrates, otec medicíny, pred naším letopočtom vedel že strava ktorú konzumujeme môže naše ochorenia spôsobiť, ale ich aj vyliečiť. NFI protokol je toho priamym dôkazom. Vyskúšajte aspoň dva týždne. Vaše telo Vám bude za to vďačné.
