"When I was doing keto, a salad would spike my blood glucose. And this is because of the fat. There was so much saturated fat that my glucose tolerance was diminished. I went from keto to the opposite, the most opposite diet you could ever have: a plant-based diet. My insulin requirements started to come down very fast. I got down to an all-time low." Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death. It causes kidney failure, lower-limb amputations, and blindness in severe cases. As a person with diabetes, keeping your blood sugar levels within the range recommended by your doctor can be exasperating.

Hey Diabuddy thank you for listening to show, send me some positive vibes with your favorite part of this episode.In this powerful episode, I sit down with Adriana Wright, who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at just four years old and has now lived with T1D for nearly 35 years. Her story begins in the early 1990s — the “dark ages” of diabetes care — when blood sugar testing required giant blood drops, no CGMs existed, and kids with T1D often felt isolated, limited, or misunderstood.Adriana shares what it was like to grow up with diabetes before modern tools existed, how her family adapted overnight, and how resilience became the thread that carried her through childhood, adolescence, motherhood, and adulthood.

In this Q&A episode of Type 2 Diabetes Talk, Dr. Jedha answers questions from the DMP Community. Why do meter readings vary so much, even when testing just minutes apart? Can illness or thyroid problems affect your A1c? How do you deal with a spouse who refuses to eat vegetables? And what about dietary cholesterol, should you really be counting milligrams each day?You will also hear practical insights on what an average glucose of 8–9 mmol/L (144-162 mg/dL) means for A1c, how to understand UK A1c results like “42,” why fasting numbers can fluctuate even on the same meals, and how to lower A1c if exercise isn't possible. These are real-life situations that so many people struggle with, and you will walk away with strategies you can put into action.For show notes and resources, please visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.comTo share your questions and suggestions, leave us a voice message or email at: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/messageExplore our proven programs and services, visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/programsSubscribe to our free weekly newsletter for podcast updates, valuable nutrition tips and more: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/subscribe

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com   Is diabetes truly a life sentence, or can you reverse it without relying on drugs like Metformin or Ozempic?   I talked with Chris Reade, who discovered a serious health condition after a life insurance exam. His A1C went from normal to a high 9.1 in 10 months because of visceral fat around his pancreas. Doctors told him this disease was progressive and incurable, but Chris refused that sentence. He researched and found a simple strategy focused on using soluble fiber to control blood sugar spikes. This method forces weight loss naturally by providing bulk, reducing hunger, and mitigating the effect of sugar. His approach involves practical, everyday systems like habit stacking and focusing on food volume to give control back to the individual.   Key Takeaways Type 2 diabetes is caused by the accumulation of visceral fat (more than a gram or two) on the pancreas, which hinders its function. It has been known since the 1970s that you can absolutely reverse diabetes. Losing more than 10% of your body weight causes the body to pull fat off the pancreas, leading to the reversal of Type 2 diabetes roughly 80% of the time. Soluble fiber, found in foods like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, oatmeal, and chickpeas, slows digestion and absorbs sugar, mitigating blood sugar spikes. By focusing heavily on soluble fiber, you feel very full all the time, which is a key mechanism for effortless weight loss and managing cravings. Performing even a small amount of exercise, such as two to five minutes of walking immediately after a meal, can knock blood sugar down by up to 25%. The current medical model for treating diabetes in the U.S. is structured to promote dependency on medication, making diabetes prevention and remission less of a focus.   Resources Website: https://www.beatingdiabetes.us Book: Beating Diabetes by Chris Reade. https://www.beatingdiabetes.us/the-book Instagram: @beatingdiabetesus https://www.instagram.com/beatingdiabetesus LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/beatingdiabetes/   Nate Palmer: The founder of The Million Dollar Body and author of "The Million Dollar Body Method", Nate has been coaching for over 15 years and has worked personally with over 1,000 clients.

This week I explore the revolutionary Rice Diet study conducted by Walter Kempner in 1958, which documented the reversal of diabetes and diabetic blindness using a simple diet of white rice, fruit, and sugar.

Episode 207: Understanding Hypertension and Diabetes (Pidjin English)Written by Michael Ozoemena, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.HypertensionSegment 1: What Is Hypertension?HOST:Let's start with the basics. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. Think of it like water running through a garden hose—if the pressure stays too high for too long, that hose starts to wear out.Hypertension, or high blood pressure, means this pressure is consistently elevated. It is measured using two numbers:Systolic: the pressure when the heart beatsDiastolic: the pressure when the heart relaxesNormally reading is around 120/80 mmHg. Hypertension is defined by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) as 130/80 mmHg or higher.The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) defines hypertension as persistent elevation of systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure, with the diagnostic threshold for office-based measurement set at 140/90 mm Hg or higher.Segment 2: Why Should We Care?HOST:Hypertension is known as “the silent killer” because most people have no symptoms. Even without symptoms, it steadily increases the risk of:Heart attackStrokeKidney diseaseThink of high blood pressure as a constant stress test on your blood vessels. The longer it goes uncontrolled, the higher the chance of complications.Segment 3: What Causes High Blood Pressure?HOST:Hypertension usually doesn't have a single cause. It often results from a combination of genetic factors, lifestyle, and underlying medical conditions.Modifiable FactorsHigh-salt diet and low potassium intakePhysical inactivityTobacco useExcessive alcohol intakeOverweight or obesityChronic stressPoor sleep or sleep apneaNon-Modifiable FactorsFamily history of hypertensionBlack race (higher prevalence and severity)Age over 65Hypertension may also be secondary to other conditions, such as kidney disease, thyroid disorders, adrenal conditions, or medications like NSAIDs or steroids.Segment 4: How Is It Diagnosed?HOST:Diagnosis requires multiple elevated blood pressure readings taken on different occasions. This includes office readings, home blood pressure monitoring, or ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.If you haven't had your blood pressure checked recently, this is your reminder. It's simple—and it could save your life.Segment 5: Treatment and ManagementHOST:Lifestyle changes are often the first line of treatment:Reduce salt intakeEat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grainsAim for 150 minutes of moderate exercise per weekManage stressMaintain a healthy weightGet enough sleepLimit alcoholQuit smokingIf these steps aren't enough, medications may be necessary. These include:Diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, Calcium channel blockers, Beta-blockersYour healthcare provider will choose the best medication based on your health profile.Segment 6: What You Can Do TodayHOST:Here are three simple, actionable steps you can take right now:Check your blood pressure—at a clinic, pharmacy, or at home.Pay attention to your salt intake—much of it is hidden in processed foods.Move more—even a 20-minute daily walk can help reduce blood pressure over time.Small steps can lead to big, lasting improvements.SummaryHypertension may be silent but understanding it gives you power. Early action can add healthy years to your life. Take charge of your blood pressure today.Diabetes1. Wetin Diabetes Be and Wetin E Go Do to Person Body?Q: Wetin diabetes mean?A: Diabetes na sickness wey make sugar (glucose) for person blood too high.

In this solo episode, the host discusses the effects of metformin, berberine, and dihydroberberine on exercise adaptation and longevity. While metformin is known for its longevity benefits and is popular in the biohacking community, it has been shown to significantly reduce exercise adaptations and VO2 max gains. Berberine, a supplement with similar effects to metformin, is easier to obtain but still has some negative effects on exercise and significant GI side effects. The episode introduces dihydroberberine (DHB), a compound with fewer GI issues and less impact on exercise adaptation, making it more suitable for athletes. The host explains the mechanisms behind these compounds, including their effects on AMPK and mTOR pathways, and offers practical advice on when to take DHB in relation to different types of exercise to maximize benefits and minimize drawbacks.     Links: Harvard longevity researcher known for NAD+ & aging research.

Hey Diabuddy thank you for listening to show, send me some positive vibes with your favorite part of this episode.In today's episode, I break down one of the biggest debates in Type 1 diabetes: Insulin Pump vs. MDI. But instead of comparing the features, tech, and tools — I flip the discussion completely. Because it's not really about which method is better — it's about which one supports your personality, your lifestyle, your mental bandwidth, your confidence, and your understanding of insulin.I explore why some people thrive on a pump and others feel more confident with injections, why technology can sometimes increase mental load instead of reducing it, and most importantly: why no device can fix diabetes without strategy, awareness, and ownership.This episode is an empowering, reflective coaching-style breakdown that will help you make a decision based not just on tech — but on who you are.

Thousands of cases of amputation and vision loss could be prevented thanks to diabetes monitoring technology. Continuous Glucose Monitors, or CGMs, have been funded for Type 1 diabetes since last October. New data from CGM producer Dexcom finds lifetime use of the devices could prevent up to 70 thousand diabetes-related complications and save the country $50 thousand a day. Diabetes New Zealand Chief Executive Heather Verry told Mike Hosking funding should be expanded to all diabetes patients. She says Pharmac is only funding for Type 1, and at $200 a month, these devices are unaffordable for everyone else. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

00:45 A molecule that delivers insulin through the skinResearchers have developed a skin-permeable polymer that can deliver insulin into the body, which they say could one day offer an alternative to injections for diabetes management. The skin's structure presents a formidable barrier to the delivery of large drugs but in this work a team show that their polymer can penetrate though the different layers without causing damage. Insulin attached to this polymer was able to reduce blood glucose levels in animal models for diabetes at a comparable speed to injected insulin. While further research is required on the long-term safety of this strategy, the team hope it could offer a way to non-invasively deliver other large-molecule drugs into the body.Research Article: Wei et al.09:23 Research HighlightsHow extreme drought may be humanity's biggest challenge after a huge volcanic eruption — plus, turning a bacterium into a factory for a colour-changing pigmentResearch Highlight: Volcano mega-eruptions lead to parched timesResearch Highlight: Dye or die: bacterium forced to make pigment to stay alive11:42 How language lights up the brain, whatever the tongueThe human brain responds in a similar way to both familiar and unfamiliar languages, but there are some key differences, according to new research — a finding that may explain why learning a language can be difficult. A study looking involving 34 people showed that listening to an unfamiliar language triggers similar neural activity to listening to their native tongue. The finding implies that human speech triggers a common reaction in the brain regardless of understanding. However, there were subtle differences when listening to a known language that may help explain how people actually understand words.Research Article: Bhaya-Grossman et al.Neuron: Zhang et alSounds used under CC BY 4.027:18 Briefing ChatSigns that greenhouse-gas emissions may peak around 2030 — plus, evidence of dog breeding by ancient humans.Nature: Global greenhouse-gas emissions are still rising: when will they peak?Nature: How ancient humans bred and traded the first domestic dogsSubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.
