- Disease pages fetched 2026-10-25 (diabetes, thyroid, PCOS, kidneys, arthritis); not Elawady's words. mytayibat.com is an unofficial third-party site in the sense that it is neither the eltayebat.com archive nor Elawady's own words. Its footer describes it as 'المنصة الرسمية التعليمية لنظام الطيبات' ('the official educational platform of the Tayebat system'), and its pages refer to it as 'the official platform'. This self-description could not be verified: no evidence was found that the site is authorised by Dr. Diaa Elawady's heirs or by the eltayebat.com archive. By contrast, altayybat.com states that it is not affiliated with Dr. Diaa Elawady. Lowest attribution level; page fetched 2026-10-25.

Scientific assessment
Unclear / insufficient evidence – The data do not allow an assessment either way.
Certainty of evidence: very low – Any assessment is very uncertain.
1. What was claimed?
Tayebat may support management of diabetes, thyroid disease, PCOS, kidney disease and arthritis when coordinated with physicians.
2. What is demonstrably correct?
The pages do NOT claim cures. They advise not changing insulin or drug doses without a doctor (diabetes), coordinating with endocrinologists (thyroid, PCOS), not applying the full system without a nephrologist (kidneys), and not stopping medicines (arthritis). Reducing processed food and soft drinks is reasonable general advice.
3. What is wrong or exaggerated?
Mechanistic statements attributed to Elawady on these pages (e.g., 'reducing heavy food lowers silent inflammation') are not supported by cited evidence; the arthritis page forbids legumes, refined bread and liquid dairy without evidence for joint outcomes.
4. What remains unclear?
Effect of the system on any of these conditions.
5. Which studies support it?
Partly: the ADA Standards of Care 2026 recommend individualised medical nutrition therapy, minimising sugar-sweetened beverages, refined grains, processed and ultra-processed foods, and medical oversight with possible adjustment of insulin and other medicines when diets change (I-INTC-03). This matches the pages' advice to coordinate with physicians.
6. Which studies contradict it?
The same guideline recommends eating patterns that include nonstarchy vegetables, whole fruits, legumes, whole grains and low-fat dairy (I-INTC-03), several of which the Tayebat lists exclude. No trial of the Tayebat system for diabetes, thyroid disease, PCOS, kidney disease or arthritis was found.
7. What applies to Germany and Europe?
European diabetes care also individualises nutrition therapy (EASD/ADA consensus, not audited here). No European guideline recommends the Tayebat system.
8. What is known about Egypt?
The pages are written for Arabic-speaking, largely Egyptian readers; no Egyptian data on outcomes of the system were found.
9. What practical conclusion is appropriate?
Any dietary change for these conditions should be coordinated with the treating physician, as the pages themselves say.
Assessment details
- Rationale for certainty of evidence
No trial of the Tayebat system for any of these conditions was found. The cautious advice on the pages (medical supervision, no change of medicines without a doctor) is consistent with the ADA Standards of Care 2026 (I-INTC-03), but the food exclusions partly conflict with guideline-recommended eating patterns.

Third-party site.

- Last reviewed
- 25 October 2026 provisional
In plain language
A third-party website has pages on Tayebat and diabetes, thyroid, PCOS, kidney disease and arthritis. These pages do not promise cures and repeatedly tell readers not to change medicines without their doctor. There is no study testing the system for these diseases. This cautious tone differs from many statements in Dr. Diaa's videos.

Study explained simply
- What did the researchers want to find out?
Give lifestyle and nutrition recommendations for diabetes
- How was the study done?
Evidence-graded guideline
- How many people, animals or samples were studied?
People with prediabetes or diabetes
- What was actually found?
Individualised plans; emphasise vegetables, legumes, whole grains; limit sugary drinks and ultra-processed foods
- How large was the observed effect?
Grade B recommendations
- What do the results mean in everyday life?
Changing your diet with diabetes is good but should be planned with your care team, especially if you take insulin.
- What are the study's limitations?
US guideline; not specific to Egypt
- What does it say about Elawady's specific claim?
Supports the caution on the third-party pages but not the exclusion of legumes, vegetables and dairy
- Do the results apply to Germany and Europe?
High
- What can explicitly not be concluded from this study?
Whether the Tayebat system helps any disease
No study in this group is marked as key.
Regional context
Germany / EU
European diabetes care also individualises nutrition therapy (EASD/ADA consensus, not audited here). No European guideline recommends the Tayebat system.
Egypt
The pages are written for Arabic-speaking, largely Egyptian readers; no Egyptian data on outcomes of the system were found.
What applies in my country?
General scientific assessment
Unclear / insufficient evidence The third-party disease pages are cautious and make no cure claims; benefit is unproven.
This statement concerns biological or medical relationships. The scientific assessment above applies regardless of the country; country-specific food data do not change it.
