My objection is that you are not reversing anything, you are treating it.

Do you "cure/reverse" bradycardia and heart block by getting a pace maker? no you treat it.

By your definition you cure/reverse any condition by taking a medicine/getting a treatment for the rest of your life.

Also...Clinically, most people who can treat type 2 diabetes with diet when they are younger, still have to go on some sort of medication (metformin) when they get older, even if their diet stays clean.
