Podcasts about reversing diabetes

Ever wonder what top plant-based doctors and chefs eat? Or why is the keto carnivore trend all the buzz, and if it's sustainable? This isn't just another diet debate. In this episode, I bring together top plant-based doctors and chefs to give you the real scoop on what they eat, recommend, and why they stick to whole food, plant-based living.

There has been a fundamental shift in understanding metabolic health and chronic disease, particularly Type 2 diabetes, challenging long-standing dietary dogma by emphasizing that insulin resistance is largely driven by overconsumption of refined carbohydrates, not dietary fat or red meat. While highlighting the success of carbohydrate restriction and ketogenic approaches, nutrition is being seen as a powerful tool for reversing diabetes—often more effective and sustainable than conventional medication. The implications are far-reaching, not only for individual health outcomes, but also for reshaping public health strategies in addressing today's chronic disease epidemic. In this episode, I speak with Gary Taubes, Sami Inkinen, and Dr. Greeshma Shetty about an approach to treating Type 2 Diabetes that works. I also discuss how red meat is not to blame, but we should be looking at high sugar and starch diets. Gary Taubes is an award-winning science and health journalist, and co-founder and director of the Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSI). He is the author of The Case Against Sugar, Why We Get Fat, Good Calories, Bad Calories, and, most recently, The Case for Keto. Gary is a former staff writer for Discover and correspondent for Science. He has written three cover articles on nutrition and health for The New York Times Magazine, and his writing has also appeared in The Atlantic, Esquire, and numerous "best of" anthologies, including The Best of the Best American Science Writing (2010). He has received three Science in Society Journalism Awards from the National Association of Science Writers, and is also the recipient of a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Investigator Award in Health Policy Research. He lives in Oakland, CA. Sami Inkinen is the CEO and Co-Founder of Virta Health, a pioneer in reversing diseases like obesity and type 2 diabetes through a nutrition-first approach. Sami's personal connection to diabetes and passion to advance global health was the motivation behind Virta and its innovative care model. Previously, Inkinen was the co-founder of the leading online real estate marketplace Trulia, serving as its COO and president and board member until its IPO and eventual sale to Zillow Group. Dr. Greeshma Shetty, board certified in Internal Medicine and Endocrinology, currently serves as a Lead Clinician in the Virta Medical Group and the Director of Quality and Safety at Virta Health. Prior to joining Virta, she was clinical physician educator at Harvard Medical School, where she directed the combined Joslin - Beth Israel Deaconess Endocrine Fellowship program and Co-Directed the Asian American Diabetes Initiative. She is dedicated to clinical excellence, leveraging health technology, transforming healthcare delivery, driving health equity and building high performing teams.

Type 2 diabetes affects more than 422 million people worldwide, yet many don't realize that it can be reversed with the right approach. This figure comes from the World Health Organization (WHO) and unfortunately, continues to increase.  Lewis Bertus, PA-C, is on a mission to change that. As the founder of Diabetes180, Lewis has helped countless individuals transform their health using a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based approach. Featured on the NHA Health Science Podcast with Dr. Frank Sabatino, Lewis shares his groundbreaking methods and personal journey, which combines professional expertise with deeply rooted values. A Holistic Start: From Theology to Medicine Lewis's foundation in holistic health began early, growing up in the Seventh-day Adventist faith, which emphasizes the connection between physical and spiritual well-being. His undergraduate studies in theology further shaped his belief in holistic healing, and his early career in community outreach gave him firsthand experience addressing preventable health challenges. “I grew up understanding that if you nourish the body correctly, it can heal itself,” Lewis said, crediting his upbringing for introducing him to plant-based principles long before they were mainstream. Personal Experience Sparks Professional Mission The inspiration behind Diabetes180 came from a personal challenge—helping his wife reverse her diabetes. Despite following conventional dietary advice and even experimenting with a keto diet, her condition persisted. Frustrated but determined, Lewis dove deep into research and implemented a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet. “Within six weeks, her blood sugar normalized,” Lewis shared. “Her success became the catalyst for what is now the Diabetes180 program.” Breaking Down Diabetes: Addressing the Root Cause Contrary to popular belief, Lewis explained, type 2 diabetes isn't caused by carbohydrates. Instead, he highlighted how excess dietary fat creates insulin resistance. Excess dietary fat creates a barrier that prevents insulin from effectively delivering glucose into the cells. By focusing on a low-fat, whole-food, plant-based diet, clients in the Diabetes180 program can significantly enhance their insulin sensitivity and take meaningful steps toward reversing diabetes. The Diabetes180 Program: A Path to Transformation Lewis's three-month program offers a comprehensive approach to reversing diabetes, focusing on: Dietary Transition: Guidance on adopting a low-fat, plant-based diet. Mindset Coaching: Practical tools for managing stress and fostering a positive outlook. Exercise Recommendations: Customized plans incorporating both aerobic and resistance training. Lewis's wife, a former diabetic, co-leads the program, bringing personal insight and emotional support to clients navigating similar journeys. Tackling Sugar Cravings and Integrating Fasting Addressing sugar cravings effectively requires a complete dietary reset, as gradual changes often prove less successful. The program also incorporates intermittent fasting as a powerful strategy for clients with persistent insulin resistance. By synchronizing eating patterns with natural circadian rhythms, fasting promotes faster recovery and supports improved metabolic health. Bridging the Gap Between Patients and Physicians One of the biggest challenges Lewis faces is overcoming the widespread misconception that carbohydrates cause diabetes. By educating clients—and sometimes their physicians—on the science of insulin resistance, Lewis helps pave the way for sustainable health improvements. Lewis ensures that clients understand his role as a supportive coach and resource, complementing the care provided by their primary healthcare team rather than replacing it. This collaborative approach empowers clients to make lifestyle changes while maintaining the guidance of their existing medical professionals. Ready to Reverse Diabetes?

In 2021, over 38 million Americans (11.6% of the population) had diabetes, mostly type 2, while 97.6 million adults had prediabetes, a precursor to type 2 diabetes. Although millions of new cases are diagnosed yearly, particularly in those over 45, the condition is often reversible with lifestyle changes. In today's episode, we'll talk about the severe health risks associated with untreated diabetes and the need not only to understand and manage diabetes but also to take proactive steps to reverse it by adopting healthier habits. I'll share my journey of helping my father control the condition, which has led to significant improvements in blood sugar levels.Additionally, we'll discuss three common dietary mistakes many people with diabetes make and the importance of a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, proper nutrition, stress management, and sufficient sleep, in controlling blood sugar levels. If you or someone you know is dealing with type 2 diabetes, listen to the episode and check out our diabetes program to learn how you can potentially reverse diabetes rather than just manage it.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to the podcast and coaching call06:31 How I helped my father take control of his diabetes17:15 What is type 2 diabetes?22:53 How diabetes develops: the role of blood glucose27:31 The complexity of glucose regulation30:18 Why we should eat carbs after a workout33:40 How a healthy lifestyle helps in blood sugar regulation37:27 Symptoms and risks of type 2 diabetes44:24 Common mistakes in diabetes management50:20 Animal protein helps regulate blood sugar1:00:39 The risks of eating "naked carbs"1:05:16 Managing diabetes through diet1:12:41 Healthy carbs and fats for diabetics1:15:58 Portion control and meal planning1:18:12 Supplements and lifestyle changesResources Mentioned in the Episode:Over 40 Alpha Podcast Episode 142: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/episode-142-reversing-insulin-resistance-for-optimal/id1446632685?i=1000659092041Over 40 Diabetes Solution:https://over40shred.com/diabetes  Subscribe and Listen on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channel:www.over40alphapodcast.comYour support of the Over 40 Alpha Podcast helps to spread the word and ultimately change the lives of men worldwide over 40, 50, and 60 who struggle with health and fitness.I want to give a MASSIVE thanks to everyone stepping up and leaving 5-star reviews.Please Review and Share the Podcast Here: Drop that 5-star review.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685Connect with Funk Roberts: Website -  https://www.over40alpha.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitnessFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/funkrobertsfitnessFunk's book ‘Nutrition for Men Over 40' - www.over40meals.com

Welcome to Jack Canfield Podcast. I'm Jack Canfield, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to today's episode of the Jack Canfield podcast. Joining me today is not only a dear friend but also a forward-thinker in the realms of health and human potential, Eric Edmeades. Eric is a trailblazer in the emerging Food Revolution, dedicated to empowering individuals to seize control of their well-being. Today, Eric is here to discuss his latest publication, "Post Diabetic," freshly launched last month, which promises to be yet another invaluable resource, steering readers toward vibrant health. His book draws upon his extensive knowledge of evolutionary biology and human nutrition, tracing his journey from his renowned Wild Fit program.  In this episode Eric talks about how his health transformation inspired him to study nutrition and human evolution. He also emphasizes eating a diet focused on seasonal, whole foods like our ancestors ate, rather than restrictive diets. Some key points included understanding why we eat emotionally, the importance of meeting nutritional needs over avoidance, and how humans are adapted to survive seasonal fluctuations through metabolic flexibility. He also discusses challenges in spreading this message due to the influences of the pharmaceutical industry.

Going from Type 2 diabetes to pre-diabetic status is a major victory, but it's crucial to recognize the distinct medical approach needed for those trending toward full remission versus those still at risk. In this episode, Dr. Graham Taylor speaks with Eric Edmeades. Eric is a globally recognized speaker, entrepreneur, and author known for his expertise in health, business, and personal development. With a mission to empower individuals to live healthier, more fulfilling lives, Eric is the founder of WildFit®, a revolutionary health program designed to transform people's relationships with food and their bodies. As a speaker, Eric has shared his insights on stages around the world, inspiring audiences with a wide range of topics, from optimizing health and wellness to unlocking peak performance in business and life. With a commitment to ongoing learning and personal growth, Eric Edmeades remains dedicated to empowering individuals and communities to thrive in every aspect of their lives. We're excited to have Eric with us today to discuss diabetic food mentality and his book “Postdiabetic”.

Restricting or removing these from your diet can lead to more efficient weight loss, even if you are inactive. Eating foods with low animal fat can help reduce weight loss. A common question is whether cheese or dairy is addictive and how it affects the body was covered. Richard gives an explanation regarding ketone test strips and how they work, mentioning that once the body becomes adapted, the ketones would no longer be wasted and so less ketones would appear on the test strip. Fat adaptation occurs much quicker than the adaptation to beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) utilization. This can take 3-12 months, but it's important to remember that it's a good thing. You don't need to continue testing your ketone levels once you've adapted. One person working with Stephen have been working with has reversed their diabetes. It's not an issue to follow a carnivorous or ketogenic lifestyle for all types of diabetes, because it helps the body to lower insulin and process glucose. Thank you so much for listening to my podcast.
