- At 52, former gang leader turned youth worker Brian Kairau has one more dream left: riding a Harley. But now he faces losing his legs. He receives support from Bernice, who lost her own leg after she got a blister training for a marathon. They’re just two of the casualties of the world’s fastest growing health epidemic, diabetes.

One insightful thing my Grandpa showed me was when shopping at a typical grocery store (at least in the US), to stay away from the center of the store. Walk around the perimeter for the healthier options - produces, meats, dairy, the fresher stuff. The middle is where most the packaged crap is.

I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 24 years ago at age 40. I was blessed to have started a very low carb ketogenic diet (Atkins then) right then. It saved my future. I have been doing this about 70% of the time ever since.
I lost 90 lbs on keto 4 years ago. But what surprised me was the major improvement in my lipid panel. I'll probably never go off keto.
Thanks to Dr IGUDIA on TH-cam who cured my Diabetes disease with his herbs medication
Indeed..its an excellent diet

"I don't drink fizzy drinks"
*cuts to sprite bottles in the background*
And other drinks that look sugary.
*You Did Not Choose To Be Classified As Diabetic, But You Can Choose To Fight Back Against Diabetes* 💪
RIP Brian once a warrior always a warrior
eating healthy does not necessary expensive. I would argue that eating healthy whole foods is less costly than process foods.
Thank you for watching USAluangprabang!
Agree
Agree
True!
It’s required time to prepare and cook. I saw her pouring sugary cereals for breakfast. That might be her easy and cheap way to enjoy the meal.
Brian. Dad. You carried your kids for such a long time. Let them carry you. It's their turn, they love you so so much.
Brian, tell them how you feel now. Your sons will understand.
What wonderful resilient people.
Thanks for watching Alicia, hope you enjoyed!
Brian you're such an inspiration mate. Much love to you fella!
I have no living family members. Not due to diabetes but both sides of the family have passed away and I stand alone.
Fruits and yogurt as lunch for a woman with diabetes on dialysis!? The daughter is killing his mother 😢
With rare exceptions, yogurt is not to be thought of as healthy. Even most "plain" yogurt is loaded with sugar in the US and I'd assume New Zealand, and any of it with fruit or a flavor like vanilla is the same as eating pudding.
The next generation can be free from all this epidemic illness, we as parents should teach from the beggining that a healthy diet is the key to prevent all this. If we dont give them sugary foods or ultraprocess products we are making a huge part to stop this!
schools are giving out ULTRA processed foods that is not helping
so No fruits vegetables and grass seeds? all which contain lots of sugar
The medical treatment these people are receiving would cost an American millions of dollars.
The lady at 5:37 said she doesn't drink fizzy drinks but she has a soda in the background.
Diabetics are lairs I got one off fizzy sugar based drinks to just carbonated water
Just as drug addicts lie, food addicts lie too. Both to others and themselves.
She said she doesn't drink fizzy drinks , she obviously has a house full of kids with 5 boys , but you also see a large jug of cordial or juice which is just as bad if not worse than fizzy drinks that they will drink thinking it's better than a fizzy ..
Wow, it is so eye opening to what diabetics have to go through
My internal medicine doctor told me that type 2 diabetes is caused by being overweight, and I found that is especially belly fat. He urged me to lose weight and by God's grace this time at Weight Watchers I lost the 20 pounds. My last blood sugar was normal. The doctor said that if the weight comes back, and I cross that weight line, I will get diabetes. I'll be forever grateful he ran the A1C test on me, which looks at the blood sugar and can tell the level over the last 3 months.
This issue can be mitigated by nutrition education. I keep hearing “I don’t have money to eat healthy”. What ever happened to boiled eggs over burgers, beans over bread, broccoli, spinach, chicken breast?
It doesn’t have to be organic, portion control also helps.
They just don't want to do it. It's easier to blame "cheap foods" than to face the ugly truth that they didn'tnt take their own health seriously and kept eating tasty high-calorie foods despite being diabetic. They have socialized medicine. Nutritionists, doctors and social services are all "free" with this condition. All they have to do is care because the info is all there. They just live in denial instead.
Do you live in New Zealand? Do you know what our food costs? Do you know how many hours a day our minimum wage people work to get by?
I get very tired of this argument. I eat healthily but I am privileged enough to be able to afford to do so. Most of the poorest people in NZ work but have many mouths to feed. Fresh produce here is expensive. Cheap white bread and spreads fill bellies. Sugary fizzy drinks bring a smile to the kids’ faces. What’s needed is for whole foods to be made cheaper and junk to be made more expensive. The government could do it but the food manufacturing lobbies are powerful.
@@sopyleecrypt6899 I am sick of this argument too because the junk foods ARE cheaper. That is a fact. Sure, healthy food is cheaper if you're just gonna eat a lettuce or tomato for dinner. But no one does that. When you're buying veggies, you are buying individual ingredients. And ingredients, especially healthy/organic ingredients cost more money than going to a McDonald's or Burger King and getting an already completely assembled Hamburger for 3 dollars.
So yes, process foods ARE cheaper. So please stop with denial the healthy foods don't cost more because it is a lie. And even if they were just as much or cheaper, people in poorer areas who don't have their own transportation may not have those kinds of foods readily available to them. So no, eating healthy on a daily basis is not as easy as some people make it sound. And denying that healthy foods do cost more in the short term isn't helping anyone.
i have diabetes and i feel so sorry for Brian i wonder if he is still here today
he passed a month before this series got released
Amazing they get to have a dialysis machine at home??! What?! Very generous 💞💞
Seriously. That negativity is your contribution
If this doco doesn't shock people to look after themselves and change immediately, nothing will. Diabetes is a slow, painful and expensive death sentence.
he had a lot of "enablers as it's call" his family was feeding him bad foods in the hospital. 5 months at the hospital and you lost no weight? yeah sounds like the family did that to him aka the enablers.. if you are there for 5 months you should have lost 75-100 pounds on the hospital diet
Someone brought him oranges. Maybe his family hates him
@@RealMonoid Toxic plant sludge you know orange oil is a pesticide ?
I remember as a child, my uncle, who was built like a solid piece of granite, told us back then how sugar was no good for us. Back then diabetes was nowhere near the health problem it presents itself to be today. Wisdom no one heeds until it’s too late.
I'm old enough to remember the old-time trope of sugar = stomach ache. I'd been on the keto diet for a while, and decided to eat something sugary. I almost had to laugh, it made my stomach hurt!
I've got gestational diabetes for the 2nd time but going on insulin and cutting down on sugar is the best thing you can do.
Diabetes suck so much. I just want to eat what I want to eat without thinking about if it’ll kill me or not in the future lol
There shouldn't be any "Good food" or "Bad food" in the market. Sugar, salt and trans fat should almost go away completely from the supermarket shelves. It's not about people making choice. Access to healthy food should be a fundamental right and should be easier. I don't have to research for 100s of hours to know what to eat and what not to eat. I don't have to read the nutrition label behind every box to bring in healthy food. It should be the food manufacturer's responsibility to put in only the healthiest food in their boxes. It already sounds like an utopian idea, but that's the world I want to live in.
OMG, put a dressing on that perma cath!
Rice is processed ?
White rice is processed.
All the fiber and nutrients are in the hull of the brown rice grain.
4:44 I do not see the point the woman emphasized about making healthy food cheaper. I don’t think some broccoli and egged and sardines are much more expensive than cola and donuts and pizza.
Where is part 4?

Fruit and yogurt? There's so much sugar in those. Perhaps they don't make a habit of it but it makes me cringe a little bit.
Fruits vegetables and grass seeds(grains) YES they have a lot of sugar
Exactly. That is a lot of sugar right there. At least fruit has fiber. What is the yogurt for? It's unnecessary.
These people eat like crap and make excuses. You can still eat good food on a budget. I did. Garbage food cost a lot more.
But you're not in their situation so don't make assumptions on their behalf because of how YOU did it! Don't judge
it's true you go out to eat
Example Big MAC MEAL IS 7.98 plus tax $8.80. that does not include your side order of mc-maggots chicken paste.
1 meal is 10$ minimum for one person for the amount you spend 30$ for 3 people you could have bought 3 days worth of good foods for breakfast lunch and dinner... so don't BS me unless you live in Alaska which everything is expensive..(most people in Alaska go to Seattle or Spokane to buy food for a month or two)
@@vivianfalefoou5388 shut up. Look up the price of beans.
@@vivianfalefoou5388 Don't bother explaining to people who don't consider other people's cultural backgrounds around money , upbringing and knowledge on food. Godbless
People need to eat oat meal instead of sugar cereal
if these people are to get better first they have to know what a carbohydrate is. If diabetes runs in their family they need to be very careful on what they eat. Fruit will raise your blood sugar and I don’t know if these people have an alternative food to eat.
meat or animal based is the only choice with small amounts of fruits like once a week..

Cringe at 20:27, slightly condescending the way she telling mumma. I'm glad she is making good choices for her health. Thanks for the awesome doc Attitude.
21:00 people cannot live by eating dietary fibers.. why not emphasize more the importance of fat and proteins?

*So nobody has picked up on the fact that the son Joseph talking about his fathers diabetes plays the youngest son in the NZ movie 'once were warriors' and his father Brian plays Jake's friend in once were warriors!*
why focus on aboriginals ?
Firstly, they're in New Zealand and the Maori are not like the "Indians" in the US, they're not a beaten people, but are equals with whites, however much that may bug you. Secondly, they're a bit more prone to diabetes. Thirdly, they're "regular people" in that they're working-class, don't have the kind of hereditary wealth so many whites have and if any care is available to them it really is available to anyone so it's kind of a heads-up to those watching that yes they can get help (assumption that those watching are New Zealanders since that's the intended audience; if you're in the US then God help you.)
Why don’t these people have teeth???😬
Because sugar in blood is feed to bad bacteria, and their teeth are constantly inflammation due to these bad bacterial.
Dentistry is prohibitively expensive in New Zealand and these people come from the most marginalised groups in Aotearoa.
