Diet and then exercise got me off all my meds in 1.5 years. From 400lbs to 198. A1c from 15 to 4.7. It is possible. The body is pretty great.
That is amazing!
Congrats man. That is phenomenal!!
woah 400 to 198 that must have been a long and hard journey especially the early stages
@@carlrodalegrado4104 - A bit of the ol ketoacidosis and a night in the icu really drove the point home that I didn't have a choice and 100% effort was required.
Yoo that’s so great, keep it up🙌🏼
If you don’t mind me asking are you T1 or T2
I’m type 1 and fuck it is hard to manage it :/
My uncle reduced his type 2 diabetes through dieting & weight loss. My uncle lost weight & cut out alcohol & naughty food - even his doctor was astounded by his transformation! Great video Sir
That's amazing to hear! Good for your uncle!
That's great... and that is the way to do it... we can reverse just about any ailment through diet. Dr. Eric Berg or Dr. John Bergman explain all of that.
Fasting has worked miracles for me as well
Edit: I should caveat this since it is getting seen, be aware of Diabetic Ketoacidosis and the symptoms if you try fasting.
@@kylefer Yes! Fasting is a life saver. I forgot to mention that.
Yes, it works!!!
I have type 1 diabetes and was diagnosed at 30 in Germany (I'm from Iran). I spent 8 days in the hospital after my diagnosis. I was in tears the first two days I spent in the hospital, because it was hard to accept that I have to inject several times per day for the rest of my life. A German doctor noticed I'm in tears when she was checking another patient, and told me *don't worry, we don't let you leave the hospital, before you learn how to live with your diabetes!* The nurses were also so empathetic. At the end, I really enjoyed the time I spent at the hospital.
I wish we had that kind of support in the US, but medical issues juat mean you go broke fast and then you are screwed or dead or all of the above.
If you are from Iran what are you doing in Germany?
@@WinterInTheForest I came to Germany to study my master and later started working here.
@@WinterInTheForest if you are not contributing on the subject why ask such stupid question?
@@user-rs6gg6bb1d Stupid question? Only Germans belong in Germany.
As a Diabetes Educator and a Registered Dietitian for over 20 years, I give this video a AAA+. So beautifully explained. I can see using this video in my patient education sessions, for sure. Loved the humor with the insulin resistant cell telling insulin to "go to hell" ..LOL.
I’m a dietetics student and my goal is to become exactly what you are! An RD with a specialty in diabetes care.
Please start teaching people that diabetes can be put into remission and encourage them to do so. When I think back on the diabetic training class I was sent to after my diagnosis 20 years ago I get infuriated because the mantra was you’re diabetic, don’t skip meals, get at least 40-45 carbs per meal, and this is how u inject your insulin. No mention that it could be put in remission, no info on the benefits of exercise, especially weight lifting to control T2… Nothing but you’re a part of the system’s dependable cash flow now… Make sure you see your doctor every 3 months. In fact, when my A1C started drastically coming down they sent me to see specialist for test because “that” doesn’t happen to insulin dependent T2 diabetics. That’s what turned me to Dr. Google and I started learning that a LOT of people successfully put their diabetes in remission through proper eating habits and exercise. Diabetes educators should hold their classes in a gym where they could actually teach people how to take control of it instead of how to “manage”… The acceptable 7% representing good control really just represents a slower deterioration so the medical community can make as much money off the disease as possible. I hope u do use this video and I hope others learn to put their diabetes back in a box. All the best to you!
@@sgta7143 Sorry that your diabetes education experience was less than desirable. Not all educators are as trained or experienced just like not all doctors are great either. The same goes for any profession. I would recommend seeking out an ADA accredited Diabetes Self management education program near you, usually located in a hospital as an outpatient education program or look for a private practitioner such as myself. Everyone's diabetes control is different and management strategies are different which is what makes it challenging as a health care provider. Please believe me when I say that we educators surely don't try to make money out of our patients. If you truly see what we get paid by insurance, you will retract your statement. Most of us are in this profession to help as often we have family members who deal with this disease or know someone who does, or live the disease just like yourself. As long as I have been doing this, I should have a fancy house by the lake but I do not. That being said, diabetes management is an ongoing process due to the nature of the disease. It has to be managed and having your health care team such as your PCP, Endo, Diabetes Eduacator on your side, helps immensely.
@@veronicas8270 Good luck. It is a great niche to be in. You are always learning and it is wonderful and rewarding.
@@kavithajohnson8031 I’m glad to hear you’re a different kind of diabetes educator. My class was with an outpatient hospital program and they fed me the same BS my doctor did. This was about 20 years ago. I will never forget him telling me I would have to be on insulin for the rest of my life and there was nothing I could do about it. Total BS! Unfortunately I believed all of them until a few years ago when at 56 I felt like a walking dead man who was not going to live to 60. It was after I dumped my doctor and the so called experts that I decided I was going to defeat the disease and overcome limitations put on me by surgeons. I’ve been off insulin for about 4 years now and my A1C has been between 4.7 and 5.3 for the past 3 years. I’m 100 pounds lighter at probably 11-12% body fat in as good a shape at 59 as I was in my 20s if not better (except for the typical old man pains LOL). I still may not make it to 60 but it will not be diabetes or high blood pressure that kills me. I have spoken with so many other diabetics that were fed the same BS and told that a 7% A1C was “well managed”. 7% is nothing but a slower death than say a 10%. I was over 15% when initially diagnosed. T2 Diabetes can be defeated and put into remission. That’s what everyone diagnosed should be told and no one should be told a goal of 7% is considered well managed. Doctors gave me excuses and I took advantage of them. It took the young Marine that still lives inside of me to remind me that there are solutions for every excuse and I started looking for them and moving toward my objective. I don’t need doctors or diabetes educators today. Unlike most of them I have actually put the methods into practice and put my diabetes back in the jar where I plan to keep it! Nothing I say should lead anyone to think it’s an easy task… It was damn hard getting where I am now and I work hard every day to maintain my condition but every diabetic needs to know they can take control of their health and live a good life without diabetes slowly destroying their future. I don’t mean to sound angry but I sure wish I knew in the beginning what I know now but like most who get the diagnosis it kinda shocks and scares you so you follow the doctors “maintenance” plan without a lot of thought. I hope you emphasize the importance of exercise along with healthy eating. It’s as important if not more so. Thank you for your sacrifice and efforts to help others. I really mean that. 😁 I only share my story on diabetic topics in hopes someone reads it and makes a commitment to themselves to change their life too. Diabetes is no joke and people should take it very seriously. Sorry for being so long winded. I think I need to write a book about my experience. Lol
I’m a type 1 diabetic, diagnosed when I was 10 I’m now 18. The excitement I felt when I seen this video in my recommended is just wow. Thank you for letting others understand the importance and differences between type 1 and type 2. You explained it better than I have seen others explain it. Amazing video!
Use monk fruit, and stevia as a replacement for regular sugar some might have erythritol. It’s more expensive but doesn’t affect the A1C. I’ve been using both for years, I like monk fruit better. Because stevia can be a little bitter if too much is used, and that’s not the case with monk fruit it’s just sweet.
I felt the same way when I saw this in my recommendations! I was diagnosed when I was 6 and I am now 22. Life is just incredibly hard when you grow up with a disease like this, irreversible (for now). Especially my teenage years were very difficult for me, but maybe even worse for my parents. Having to watch me take such bad care of myself and not be able to do anything about it because I was a rebellious teen.
@@leonanoordenbos4605 I was the same way!! I’m now taking more care of myself and taking my insulin like I should bc I now realize i’m not some invincible teen and diabetes is a serious matter, even more serious when not taken care of properly. I feel bad for my mother having to watch me do that but all I can do now is make up for it by proving I can take care of it. I’m so glad someone else understands this
Hey other fellow T1ers!
@@9thninjaNet Heyyyyy!!!! X5/G6-user here! 😊🤘
Can you make a follow-up video about some of the complications of diabetes? Like neuropathy, effects on the kidneys, vascular changes (like oedema and vascular ulcers) etc?
I feel like most people, including those with diabetes, don't realise how many processes the disease affect.
Yes!! I’m curious to understand more about what high glucose can do to the body.
Great idea for a new video !
As well as vision loss, amputation, etc. I'd like to see a video like that, too. I've been T1 for 26 years and am trying to get on the kidney transplant list as we speak.
@@lizjoe21750 I wish you the best of luck on the transplant list, diabetes is such a difficult disease to manage. At what age did you develop diabetes, if you don't mind if I ask?
A lot of research these days primarily focuses on T2 and I feel like T1 doesn't have as much awareness
@@cj8527 Hi, and thank you for the kind words😊 I was diagnosed about one week after my 16th birthday, 26 years ago. You're right about T1D getting little attention. Even when I clicked on this video and heard, "today, were going to talk about DIABETES..." my eyes automatically rolled back in my head and I thought, "oh god, here we go again🙄".
You'd think that a disease that primarily affects children would get more press. After all, the world is full of pearl-clutchers who look for excuses to say, "will someone please think of the CHILDREN?!?". I guess not in this case. (*sorry- rant over... for now, haha).
Do you have T1, or does someone close to you have it? Our month is coming up in November. I'll bet we won't see a lot of sports teams wearing jerseys with blue circles on them.
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I've been T1 for 28 YEARS (diagnosed at age 6), and the frustration I feel when people tell me that all I have to do is exercise and diet to make it go away isn't explainable 🤣! No matter how much I exercise and diet, I will ALWAYS be diabetic lol!
I get it. I had gestational diabetes and people and their unsolicited advices. For me it's genetic.
@@mariee.5912 every pregnancy is different. You might get gestational diabetes with every pregnancy but you are just as likely to have it with one pregnancy and not another!
You will always be diabetic because that's what they want you to believe. Anything in the body can be reversed if you leave trash foods alone,drink water and pure juice and give your body sunlight and fast a day or 2 and stop overloading your body wit crap.they won't tell you this though..guess why?
It was a blessing to have met Dr etiko on TH-cam who brought up a huge smile on my face and it's gonna be permanent, because I never thought I would ever be cured of hsv2!!
Nah you're just fat
My husband was diagnosed T1 at 41 years old. Yes...for real. His entire life he'd been told his mood swings were due to him being bipolar. He was treated with anti-anxiety meds. Only it wasn't bipolar. It was low blood-sugar. I am amazed he made it to 41 without insulin treatment!
If he were undiagnosed T1 at 41, wouldn't he be high BS before insulin treatment ?
Sounds like type 1,5 LADA which is slow onset but still autoimmune diabetes
@ReyOfLight yea I have just been diagnosed with Lada at 38 the symptoms still matched type 1
If he bi poor, should ofeft his ass a long time ago.
No annual checkups ever brought that up before the age of 41?
I have managed to maintain a remission level of blood sugar levels (not perfect, but below diabetic) through exercise, diet and weight loss. The weight loss is hard, and so much food is packed with sugar, especially desserts! We need diabetes-friendly labelling of food.
There is the glycemic index, but i dont think its directly on the packaging
That's awesome that you have been able to do that!!
We already do Steve, it’s called Total Carbs on the nutritional labels. Plus don’t eat grains, fruits and root vegetables. Walla, no more high blood sugar.
Real food doesn't need any labels. With a diet of meat and veggies diabetes T2 can be reversed in a couple of weeks.
I live cauliflower. Have not looked at the carbs in cauliflower as of yet.
Wish there was just a container to open and eat. (simple) continued success . Thanks
I can listen to this guy all day long without getting bored. What enthusiasm he has! How much knowledge he has, how much research he does before every presentation! Love it!

I'm a type 1, I was diagnosed at 6. You explain the differences so well I teared up a little. It is so common for type 1s to be blamed for our condition even though we can't do anything about it.
i was diagnosed at 6 too ! my mom is type 2 and i was playing in her reader my sugar was too high to even read at the time
@@eve6925 both my parents got type 2 within the last few years. I found out I had diabetes because I had to be rushed to the ER barely conscious and stuck in the ICU. I'm glad you were able to find it with your mom's meter, I'm sure that was still a huge shock! I've noticed as I've gotten older a lot of the type 1s I met were diagnosed through routine blood work or in their PCP office early on where as most of the people I know my age or older were hospitalized and that's how they found out. I'm glad at least doctors are more vigilant about type 1 with their patients now.
@@thatvaultgirl1018 so basicly you need to inject insulin every single day ??
@@jocelynwilliams2059 yes, I have an insulin pump so I don't need to take shots everyday though. Instead every 3 to 4 days I change the site which leaves a small canula under my skin and a piece on top (I've always called it a port) where I can connect or disconnect my tubing. That way I can shower or swim or whatever without having the pump on. I also have a continous glucose monitor which doesn't physically connect to anything and instead sends readings every 5 minutes to my phone and my pump. It's the same basic idea though, small canula/wire under the skin, an external piece, periodically change it. Sorry if that was a lot more info then you wanted 😅
Exactly! My endocrinologist was trying to scare me, she said that I'm going to die at mid. twenty's if not control sugar levels. I was 8 y.o in that moment and just shaken in fear.
I have PCOS and have been told I'll eventually end up diabetic because I'm insulin resistant. I never understood what all that meant before this video. The endocrinologist I saw should watch this so she can better serve her patients.

Check out the literature on Intermittent Fasting/Time restricted feeding. Basically, allowing your body expend it's glucose stores and switch to fat metabolism seems to have a lot of benefits, including for insulin resistance!
GOOD LUCK! You are far from alone in this battle.

I would like to acknowledge that within the last decade research has demonstrated a solid CAUSATIVE link between diabetes and Alzheimer's. We lost my 69 year old insulin dependant mother in law to Alzheimer's this year. She was diagnosed with diabetes in her 30s and it had not been controlled since young adulthood. Diabetes causes retinopathy, kidney disease, neuropathy, and damage to the vascular system due to the "sharp" glucose molecules. This contributes to poor circulation and risk for non-healing wounds. As a nurse I've worked with hundreds of diabetics and seen so many on dialysis for kidney failure, near blindness from retinopathy, excrutiating neuropathic pain, and leg amputations. Diabetes' associated medical complications cost the US more than any other disease by a wide margin. I encourage all people to consider the seriousness of this disease. This video has inspired me to get a handle on my own unhealthy decisions. Thanks for this great video!
This post had more useful medical relevance than the whole video. I'm a fan of the channel but as a Type1 diabetic i'm disgusted by this video. All diabetic info sources are "the type 2 diabetes pityparty". Type1 is so much worse for all the reasons you mention, and the world cries for the people who either had poor physical health or literally outlived a major organ's life expectancy due to human medical advances prolonging life longer than nature intended and yet not being smart enough to keep every organ running. This video was just the same old "exercise and diet" mantra, lacking much of any interesting medical science to educate on more interesting things on the topic.

I’m in my 20’s and am pre-diabetic. I am an example of an unfortunate soul who is actually slightly underweight and yet has this problem. Usually when people think about pre-diabetes and type 2, they think of overweight people who don’t exercise. Well, I went pre-diabetic in the middle of my childhood when I never went more than a few months without playing a sport (practices, tournaments, conditioning, etc). I started getting light headed and pass out and it still happens to this day if I’m not careful. Some people are just unfortunate even when their lifestyle is better than most people who just happen to be more lucky.
Order for your Diabetes herbal cure from Dr Ewi1 on TH-cam and get yourself/family cure search on him.

For years the establishment had put the guilt on us. IF you start eating less and exercise more. You should not get diabetes. That's the reason my comment above that weight gain doesn't produce insulin resistance.
How is type 2 diabetes treated for people who are already underweight.
I started crying when you said that the pancreas is amazing. I've had diabetes for almost 20 years now and I've always hated my defective organ. I'd punch myself in the stomach before I went to sleep as a kid, hoping against hope that it would somehow kick-start it again.
..I've apologized to my damaged organs for my abuse of them, thru diet mostly, and then just constantly focus on my insides 'returning to normal'.
But I simply can't eat Any sugar foot or drinks or processed bag foods like chips etc....darn
When I think of all the junk food I loved as a kid totally oblivious then to unfortunate children suffering hereditary diabetes
I can totally relate. I was diagnosed at 4 and dreamt endlessly of a medication that could wake my islets back to life. Though I never hit myself, I used to get so frustrated with finger pricking and injections that I would go days without doing either. I paid the price when I was 34 y/o. As a veteran type 1, I find it discouraging that new meds for type 2s are constantly being created, but a cure for type 1 seems practically ignored. Though there has been some success with pancreatic transplant, many insurances still find it "experimental" or not particularly successful. Maybe some day in the near future a breakthrough discovery, equivalent to Banting's discovery of insulin, will happen. Fingers crossed 🤞
I'm legit choking up picturing what you described.

I definitely need my husband to watch this video. He's had type 2 diabetes for about 15 years now and his blood sugar levels have been way too high for too long (most often over 20 mmol/l). He won't listen to anything I say because I'm "Not a doctor", but maybe this video will make some sense to him.
Or just let him die of his own stubborness.

I pity your husband I truly do, that mindset of "You're not a doctor" is so damaging, especially considering doctors don't treat root causes of problems, they simply mask symptoms until you keel over. Western medicine isn't a place of healing, it's a business venture with the express goal of siphoning as much money out of you as possible before you kick the bucket, never actually treating the root cause. If you ever find a doctor that disproves this, hold onto that person for dear life.
Am a foreigner studying Nursing in Germany and we just started this Topic Diabetes Typ 1and Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 today. And your video was very helpful ☺️, it was like a cherry 🍒 on top of this topic which our Lecturer already taught us today.

Although I am not technically diabetic, I have Insulin Resistant Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome so I am always aware that I could develop diabetes at any time. This video did a fantastic job of explaining just what Insulin Resistance is! Thank you so much!! It still sucks having to explain to ER staff that I'm not diabetic even though I take Metformin, and then have them look at me like I'm lying. It's also very sad that so many of them don't know what PCOS is and how the pancreas affects it.
I'm sure that's tough! Sorry to hear it. Insulin resistance is so far reaching in its damaging effects, from PCOS & infertility/ED to heart disease, Alzheimer's, stroke, kidney & liver disease, joint diseases like arthritis, fibromyalgia, MS or Parkinson's, GERD, many skin conditions, eye problems, tinnitus, you name it you can get it.
If you are suffering PCOS and are not yet a full-blown T2D, then you are pre-diabetic, hyperinsulinemic and insulin resistant. The good news is your condition is reversible. If you are looking to get pregnant, focusing on a keto/carnivore diet will get you there inside of 18 - 24 months... sometimes sooner.
@DJMT-Africa I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and did a ton of research on IR-PCOS while navigating my fertility journey. Keto and carnivore diets did more harm than good for my overall health. At this point in my life, I am enjoying not being up to my eyeballs in diapers and puke filled receiving blankets! 🤣 My youngest is 17, so being a grandparent is next on my list, and my diet is not a requirement. 😉 I am very happy that I no longer have to spend a good portion of my days dealing with the fertility clinic, and I am incredibly grateful to them for helping me get pregnant more than once.
@@calliopewitch Glad to hear you have found a rhythm. PCOS is the leading cause of infertility in women, and insulin resistance is the leading cause of PCOS. Ultimately, if sufferers can fix their insulin resistance as a lifestyle and not a goal, they will sustain optimal health 💪🏾.
@@calliopewitch just curious, can you share which research papers you found on incontinence & puking with those diets? I'm still on the fence whether plant based whole foods vs keto is better.
I do agree with DJMT on infertility & Insulin Resistance connection, it is vital everyone reverse the IR. But still so debated if keto is good for everyone, including personalized gut microbiomes etc
This was so fun to watch, thank you! As a type 2, 12 years ago, I was mad as heck because I had a routine of exercising 2 hours a day. Then I was diagnosed as a type 2. Talk about disappointing! Went to a dietician, found out my issue was carbs. I was a 6.8 at the time, A1c. After 6 months on metformin and following what I thought was a healthy diet, by reducing carbs, creeped up to a 7.2 A1c. I just wasn't doing it right at the time, didn't realize fruit was contributing to the problem. 😂
Anyways- became a trucker, didn't have access to proper foods at a truck stop, so I stocked up on sardines, and lived off them for nearly a year ( years later) ran out of metformin while OTR, so just ate fish mainly. Finally got myself into a Dr, told them I hadn't been on Meds in a year, but my Dr. Saw no indicator I even had diabetes, just HBP! So- I didn't get my Metformin, I thought stupidly I was cured. Years later, had my A1c checked again, my Diabetes came back with a vengeance at 11.4. 😭 !!! Doc said I needed to inject, I begged him to put me back on Metformin, he did- I went and researched on TH-cam like crazy, found the Keto diet! There was this chap named Dennis Pollack who explained he had been on the keto diet for 17 years with success. Can you believe I reduced my A1c back to normal levels within 3 months??? So yes! It is possible! But- it's a constant battle. My current A1c has registered as an 8. ( Not good) but I was off keto, and not exercising .. point being, this is a LIFESTYLE CHANGE. Exercise at least 30 minutes a day, reduce your A1c quickly by reducing your carbs to under 30 a day- take your Metformin, and just a 5-10% loss of body weight can put you in a category near normal again, even despite genetics. Age is a HUGE factor. But- I've suspected I've been pre diabetic since my childhood years, which Doctors really need to address in children with a weight problem. I loved that example you gave about the cells telling the sugar to go-to hell. 😂 So freaking funny!!! It's so true. And, if anyone was wondering how much fish I was eating, it was 3 oz of fish, three times a day. It's horrible to do for a year though, it's been years, and I still see it as a form of food torture.. best wishes to all! Good references to type 2, Dr. Ekberg, Dr. Sarah Hallberg, Dr. Jason Fung, and of course, Dennis Pollack all here on TH-cam, or- you can listen to me on your favorite podcast at Diabetic Survival, where you can find out what this diabetic girl is up to next. Thank you so much!
Well at least I.know that eating sardines and mustard with as few crackers as possible wont kill me in the long run, anyway. Eating this way now because Im stone broke and cant seem to get hired anywhere with benefits; thank god for obamacare....
Interesting, all I did was just cut out cookies and takeaways. I only drink water. I don't even drink come zero. My AC1 was 5.8 and last month it was 6...so I figured I'm doing something very well...ibdo indulge in dark kit Kat chocolate tho, ey what can I say, taste buds want what they want 🤣. But all in all. Great comment u posted...but exercises is the number one thing I lean on

As a type I diabetes (diagnosed when I was 19, over 10 years ago, no other T1D in the family), I was hoping to see more of an actual pancreas, Islets, and perhaps even whether there is any visible difference between a healthy pancreas and a T1D pancreas. But well, type II is the majority after all, so thank you for the glimpse, anyway.
my grandpa is also a type 1 diagnosed at 19. he is doing great, wish the same for you.

I had gestational diabetes. So, my ex doctor said that it's was a warning that I was going to develop diabetes within 5 to 10 years. After 15 years, I do not have diabetes, yet. I don't eat artificial sugar, I limit carbohydrates and try to eat whole foods. Great video.
Wow, I know a lot of women get gestational diabetes, but this is the first time I heard about it being a sign that you will develop T2 soon! Scary but good to know! My mom had gestational diabetes when she had me and it's been 28 years, she still does not have T2 and eats as she likes as far as I can tell.
Type 1 diabetic here! Even though we can't cure T1 diabetes yet, exercise and healthy low-GI diet do reduce insulin basal and total needs of insulin that I use. I highly recommend to adopt a D2 lifestyle if you have T1. Nowadays my A1c is lower than 6, less spikes and dips and I feel much better now. Nice video!
What is a D2 lifestyle? Sorry for my ignorance
I recently found your channel and I liked it a lot. I am 57 years old male with 26 years T2D. I have tried whatever under sky to fight my inheritance- my father died from Diabetes as well- long story short none worked. I ended up with 8 ish A1C and 7 types of meds and Insulin. 238 lbs and depressed. Sleep apnea and bad vision. Whole nine yards. It was nov 2021 I saw a video from RIP Sara Hulberg. And I started zero to very low carb. I’m not in any camp and hate to be labeled as and cult member. With that said on Feb 2023, my A1C 5.6 and my weight is 190. No meds except Metformin. No snoring and walk 6 miles a day unless I go 40 miles bike ride. My mental status is normal and I am not going to dark places anymore. I know there there is no magic bullet. But this one worked for me and still does.
T2D here. Diagnosed about a year and a half ago. Was taken off my meds earlier this year.
I love this video. You explained it so well, including HOW exercise can put T2 into remission. (I love that phrase BTW. It annoys me when people say they "cured" their diabetes. It isn't cured; it's controlled.)
well essentially ALL the sickness in our bodies are in remission, there's no static point ever cause the body is in a constant fight 24/7, if you had to look at your gut biome its like the Ukraine /Russia war going on every minute but you not aware of it:)
My hubby is considered a type 1.5 due to having 2/3 of his pancreas removed. The portion that remains can make a little insulin. But, not enough. He will always need a needle. Metformin was tried right before his surgery with horrible side affects. Thank you for this bit of education on the subject. Great job! Stay safe and healthy out there. Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
Surgical removal of the pancreas would be considered Type 3c
People Need to Take a Really Deep Dive On Metforman. NOT GOOD.
First things first:
Don't consume alcohol, don't smoke, don't eat junk food, don't eat/drink blood, don't eat oily foods
Eat all other kinds of food (variety)
Dry fruits
Fruits
Vegetables
meat
milk
eggs
...
Drink 1/3 water, 1/3 food, (leave 1/3 for air)
Exercise/play games/or any physical activity
Meditate/Relax
Most important! Have a routine:
Eat at the same times everyday
Exercise at the same time everyday

I would love to see some more videos around insulin resistance and hormonal issues, and what is the actual connection (mainly in women between the PCOS and Insulin Resistance). As too many fat deposits are not always the cause (some people going into the opposite direction and being too skinny with Insulin Resistance). So, I would love to hear more about the hormonal connection and all the possible varieties of it! Keep up the great work!

The Vagus nerve causes Pancreatitis diabetes
I'm a type 2 diabetic who was diagnosed around 13 yrs ago when I was 20 yrs old. Between diet and exercise, I think diet has the most impact when you begin lifestyle changes. It was very hard trying to eat whole grains and less processed foods in the beginning. There were times when I was binge drinking a lot of fructose ridden drinks and eating fruit in high portions. Although I lost a lot of fat in the belly and some in thighs, my weight has been stagnant over the last 5 to 6 yrs. For exercise, I mostly did cardio and HIIT type of exercises because it was homework I just had to get out of the day. By the time I was on insulin, I took 70 units of Basaglar, and 50 or 60 units of Apidra per meal depending on the time of the months. I was ridden with hypoglycemia at times during my periods, or when I had an extra strenuous exercising sessions which frustrated me because of the glucose tablets I would have to take in the middle of the night. Back in May, I got into resistance training and signed up with my local gym. My A1C was down to 6.6 from the between 8 and 9 I was getting. I'm down to 50 units of Basaglar, and 20 or 30 units of Apidra. My A1C was this low only once when I was doing HIITs 4 times a week and extrenly low carb diet. It just wasn't sustainable and I wasn't able to get back on the wheel since then. I've changed my routine since May and been going to the gym 3 times a week with weights and cardio for 1.5 hr and 1 one-hour cardio sessions per week at home. I've hadn't had any hypoglycemic incidents so far since I stuck to resistance training regularly, and no hyperglycemia either as long as I work out every other day. Day 2 with no exercise makes my overall glycemic control erratic. I also try to eat every 4 hours or so in between meals with equal portions. I also found that though my weight on the scale hasn't gone down, I have noticeably lost fast in the middle, back, and some inner thigh and upper arm flabs. It is much softer and I can see some definition/separation between the muscle and flabs. If you can afford it, I strongly encourage trying out cgm monitoring first to figure out where you can fine tune your glycemic control. It was an eye-opener for me because I was getting frustrated learning what my glucose levels were just before and after meals with testing on my glucometer, and fasting glucose because all my hypoglycemic incidents happened during the early mornings and I would wake up in the middle of the night from feeling the effects. For diet, portion control is the key. I've turned to eating 1 portion of food according to the food labels, and eating each meal to fit in with my macros of 3 carb: 3 protein: 4 fat. I've found out how less of a protein I was eating and high high of a percentage of my meal was based on carbs since I was eating intuitively. I was hitting the calorie deficits but not the macros, which stagnated my weight loss. I hope this helps for someone who has been frustrated with all their efforts over the years. Who's been doing all they can muster off the efforts but not getting the results years on end.
Thankyou dear, this is Gourav from India
I was diagnosed with type 1, 21 years ago as of last month, I'm now 25. I lost my health insurance some time ago after my family left california, and I've struggled to get help in Texas and now Tennesee, it's caused my to develop a fairly notable case of neuropathy in my legs, and it's always such a process to get employers or even people in my life to understand what that means. I wish more people really understood what's going on and how diabetes treatment, particularly type 1, is so expensive and difficult

One of the things I've found with diabetics is nutritionists, doctors, etc is they often tell patients what they should do to (for example) reduce insulin resistance (diet and exercise) but too often they don't explain Why. When I say that I'm referring to a patient fully understanding metabolism, how the cells work, etc. So this presentation is a very useful explanation.
I am an insulin-dependent T2 diabetic. Over the years I've had to keep upping the dosage as my resistance increases. My doctor has always said I need to exercise and improve my (admittedly horrible) diet, but I would give up after a few weeks of intense effort without any tangible results. Now I understand the metabolic processes that affect my diabetes and how to change them in hopes of improvement. At 70 y/o my eyes are beginning to be affected, but the decreased resistance to disease is much more of an issue. Where years ago I might have gotten a cold and a cough today it almost always becomes bronchitis or pneumonia and lasts for weeks and weeks. I heal much more slowly from normal scratches, bumps and bruises as well. However, I have very bad sciatica and am often housebound for days at a time so get very little exercise. So, I guess this old couch potato will have to bestir herself to exercise (gently) regularly even if it has to be done in tiny bits at home.
yes
imm praying for you
Good on you! All the best! 😃👏
Sorry to hear your condition, this guy in this video do so good. I just want to add some info "slow walking after eating" especially dinner for 30 mins (wait may be 5-10 minutes after dinner) , it help me a lots. This info came from 2 Japanese nurses did experiment early or before year 2000.
Check out Bob and Brad channel on you tube. They are 2 physical therapists that have exercises to relieve sciatica. They work!! I know the pain.
You can do it! literally one step at a time!
Good job on your Diabetes presentation on an anatomy basis. I'm T2D and was strongly triggered into it immediately after talked into taking Statins to lower Cholesterol (2005) and my Dr never told me the drug raises blood sugars even when I was "over the top" at the next annual. Over the next 5 years on Statins and now several diabetic Rxs, I had to stop training and competing in Triathlons due to muscle and tendon very slow repair. Stopped Statins after about 5 years when Dr Oz on TV stated 20% Statin users get T2D. Fast forward 8 years fighting T2D, discovered KETO with Intermittent Fasting (Dr Berry, Dr Berg, Dr Cywes, Dr Fong, ”Oiling of America" etc...) And now back to Triathlons again (64years old). I lost 50% Adipose Tissue (annual DEXA scans) in 3 years. 15 pounds under Overweight (normal wt.) But still fighting T2D. Big thing I have learned is that there are NO essential Carbs and they don't deserve to be eaten. I am currently on the fence A1C of T2D and Pre but is a constant fight. Without KETO Low Carb I wouldn't Have made it this far. Thanks for your great presentation and I love the way you make them.

QUESTION- I have complications of Type 2 diabetes. Apparently, at least some of them are caused by damage to my vagus nerve. A video would be fantastic, explaining a) how that nerve gets damaged by diabetes, b) how to stop damaging it further, and c) whether or not the nerve damage can be reversed to any degree at all if I follow the proper rules. You explain so well. I try hard to deal with it, but I think I could do better if I understood the mechanism better. Thanks so much... you guys are great :)

Clinical research on intermittent fasting and the vagus nerve hasn't gotten to that level yet, but the vagus nerve is connected to fasting.
I'd do some research on IF (pretty decent number of generic IF studies done to read through) and then bring it up to your doctor.

Fantastic video. I'm a Type 2 diabetic patient and this is the clearest and most complete explanation of what's going on with my body that I've come across - even from my doctor. I've responded well to exercise and watching what I eat, while taking Metformin; so much so that my numbers are back down to what's considered pre-diabetic or well-controlled type 2 diabetes. Knowing more about why this is so is motivating. Thank you!

Terrific video! Would be possible to make a video on type 1 diabetes please? Both types suck but I feel there's much more information and education on type 2 and type 1 usually gets left out. I almost lost my daughter after she collapsed. When we rushed her to the ER, she was on severe DKA and obviously diagnosed. No family history on either side. It was a total shock! Would I have known what her symptoms were, she would have been diagnosed without so much trauma. We're lucky we live in a city with excellent medical care but not everyone has the same. Many thanks for reviewing this important topic. Truly appreciated. 🙏🏽
I know three kids personally that had traumatic diagnoses of type 1….. and it’s not like the parents are completely uninformed, it’s just the symptoms can be so subtle at first and so many don’t understand what they mean. I agree a video on type 1 would be super informative.
Neither of my two grandmothers or my grandfathers got diabetes and they were and are 95, 87, 70, and 84. Great video by the way! I've learned more from you guys than I did in my anatomy and biology classes in college.
I wish these videos were available when I was taking my A&P classes and my medical coding classes!
Right?! These kids have it so easy 👵🏻🧓🏻😜😜
Well I took anatomy, biology and physiology in college and they're not supposed to teach you about diabetes in those classes.
@@user-rs6gg6bb1d why?
@@raffaelreviews6104 Simple: because those classes are general subjects not specialties
Great video on a complex topic. My type 2 diabetes is in remission as a result of the combined effect of many of the methods discussed.
One additional method that has been extremely beneficial for me is Heat Therapy, via either a sauna (traditional, infrared blanket) or a soak in hot water (hot tub or hot bath at home). I implement this daily and it has worked wonders in regards to reducing inflammation, blood sugar and insulin levels. In addition, a hot water soak a couple of hours before bed has enhanced my sleep quality.
Essentially, the heat therapy stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis.
I really enjoy this channel and the thorough yet digestible presentation method.
Interesting. I'll have to look into this.
Hmm..do hot flashes count as heat therapy, or will six cats and a dog of the bedcovers be better?

Yep, I have type two diabetes. For around a year I was on a very low carb diet and was able to quit taking my metformin. Now, for health reasons and the fact that proper kidney function is important, I've increased my daily carb intake. I've once again started taking the metformin, though in a reduced dose, and things are ok. I have to say I much prefer how I feel on the ultra low carb diet. From mental health to digestion, it's a superior lifestyle. The takeaway is that my pancreas isn't a team player, but yelling at it doesn't help.

I'm type 2. I lost 80 pounds and changed my diet. I'm doing really well. I just avoid carbs and sugar as much as I can. Great video. I learned some things. Thank you so much! ✌🏻💙🐾🌎🇺🇸
With diabetes running in my family I have researched it quite a bit, but the explanation and visual effects you used really made me understand it in much better way… thank you so much for this. Many of the little technical details are hard to understand depending on what type of learner the person is, a combination of visual and verbal techniques made it awesome to finally see it in such a broad way. So again, thank you, I’ve been subscribed and watching for a while now and enjoy all the videos. Keep it up and stay safe always. 😊
Thank you. I have been diagnosed as Pre-Diabetic and this is the clearest explanation of what is occurring, I have seen. Dr Mosely's book is good at providing a path forward, however this explains clearly what is happening and why we think exercise and diet works to prevent further decline. Very helpful.
i got type 1 diabetes from a flu infection 2 months ago . shortly after i started researching insulin sensitivity , proteins , vitamins , minerals and also complex and simple carbs , i took what i learnt and applied it to my diet and lifestyle . today the doctor reduced my daily insulin dose from 24 units a day to 20 . it isn't that much of a reduction but to me that was the best thing to happen since i was diagnosed . my blood glucose level at diagnosis was 25mmol . the day after (because they dint have my prescribed insulin at the pharmacy) it was at 30 . they had to reduce my dose today because i was hitting hypoglycemia 27 times in a week at around 3.7 to 3.3 mmol
I have T2, diagnosed at 25y old, finally, after years of struggling with it. The only symptom I couldn't figure out was my constant weight gain. I used to be super skinny, but due to my diatebes activating when I was 18y old and being untreated, I became obese. It was only when i told my therapist about my constant weight gain, no matter what I did, that she advised me to check it out and I got my diagnosis. Turns out T2 is common in my fathers side of the family, and I had no clue. Recently, after having my disgnosis for 2y, it went into remission. For me, eating whole foods plant based and doing moderate exercise is the key. It's not easy with my back issues, but it's worth it. I do hate the stigma around it and how people say it's my fault I got sick. I didn't choose this, my dad's bad genes were just too strong.
This was a great video on diabetes. You made the explanation of what diabetes is, how it impacts your body and potential ways to mitigate its impact really clear and easy to understand. I really enjoy this channel! Keep up the great job.
Very very interesting. My husband has type 2 and is loosing weight with diet and exercise. He is using much less insulin than he did before. I am very proud of him. Thank you for helping me understand how diabetes affects the body.

I love your videos man and I find them very informative. I wish I had discovered them earlier.
What I'd like to hear more from you is critical periods of development and how they affect the conditions you talk about (e.g. in the current video, how growing up eating certain diets influences adipose tissue and hence diabetes).
Thanks a lot for your videos!
I can vouch for the eating habits and the importance of exercise to put T2 diabetes into remission. I was diagnosed with an A1C in the mid teens and put on insulin immediately. I was told I would be on insulin the rest of my life and that there was nothing I could do about it. Well, after about 15 years I realized my life was not going to last much longer if I didn’t find a way to defy the doctors. I’ve been off insulin for about 4 years and have kept my A1C between 4.7-5.3 for the past 3 years. I’m also 100 pounds lighter and lift weights 5 days a week and swim 30-60 minutes on the other two days. I’ve got rid of the high blood pressure and other health issues that creep in on diabetics that contribute to our demise. I’ll be 59 in a few months and I’m probably as fit as I was in my 20s if not more so. I’ve even got my six pack back. Am I still a diabetic? My answer is yes! While I’m able to control it with strict eating habits and intense workouts, all I have to do is eat or drink too much of the wrong thing and my glucose will shoot up like a rocket. It usually comes down pretty fast but my body, even as fit as I am now, probably in the 10-12% body fat range judging from my visibly bulging bicep veins and ripped abs, the wrong foods or an infection or virus like when I got COVID a few months back and my glucose levels get outta whack. I am definitely in remission but have no doubt my A1C would start climbing if I let my guard down. I’d encourage anyone with T2 to immediately change their eating habits and start exercising. You don’t have to go full on Olympic athlete, just start moving. You CAN take control of T2 and you CAN get off insulin and meds. You just have to want to do it and then be consistent and don’t give up!

Yep type 2 has only been around for a 100 years. Type 1 been around since Egyptian time.
I just started my running workout few months ago and mostly I just follow tips and instructions without knowing the reason behind it.

I am a type 2 diabetic. I am insulin dependent (Nova mix 30) and take Metformin too. I was also on Gliclazide (not sure if that is spelt correctly) but was taken off it by my GP who said that it can cause liver damage and I had been on it for way to long. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you.

By far, the best explanation I've heard. I have been diabetic for 13 years and have, thru diet and meds, I am well-controlled with A1cs in the low 6's. No other deficits. Exercise is key for me to lose the rest of my excess weight.
I had gastric bypass surgery and stopped immediately (under my surgeons instructions) my insulin and other medications. I am now in remission.

Thank you for differentiating between Type 1 and Type 2. I've been a T1D since I was 9, and now that I'm an adult, many people (including an MD once) assume I'm a Type 2 simply because I'm 'an adult with Diabetes'. As if Diabetes is only one disease!
And BTW - I'm in 'remission' due to a pancreas transplant.

Great point in regards to exercising. I got well educated with this video. I'm 67 years old, for years I have been told that my numbers were border line. I'm happy to see that I have been doing something good, prior to this video. Exercising has been in my blood, I feel in pretty good shape. Diabetes has been something I do continue to worry about and is also in the genes.
As a diabetic in remission, this is the most detailed and thorough explanation I’ve heard yet.
I have been off medication for two years and maintaining an A1C between 4.8 and 5.0. It’s not easy but doable.
Recently diagnosed. Thank you for this video.

I appreciate you explaining the differences between Type 1 and 2 and the preventability (or lack thereof) for each. So many times over my life I've had people suggest if I exercised more or watched what I eat more maybe I wouldn't have to keep taking insulin...

I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in September of 2022, fell into a deep depression and contemplated su*cide… I found hope I could fix my problem when I found keto… I lost 100lbs from diet and exercise. I am now in diabetic remission and am off all diabetic medication.
My father had type II and did not follow a diet…loved Chinese food, but lived til 92. His mother ate the basic Mediterranean diet and died in her 80,s. My uncle lived until his 80,s with type 2. I have type 2 and my dr wants my hgbA1c down. I have gone from 9.6 to 8.5 in six weeks, but cannot exercise due to severe arthritis. Totally frustrated since I replace two meals with a protein drink and drink a lot of water. Haven’t had potatoes, bread, pasta or rice in ages. I am now 79 and have no side effects of diabetes. My eldest daughter died from complications of type I and kidney failure, so I know what to watch for. Just wish I could walk.
Question- of all these relatives with type2 diabetes were they are meds?
When I was diagnosed with T2D I decided I was going to do a lot of research. I decided I would concentrate on exercising and loosing weight. Sure enough as I lost weight all my numbers decreased. I have never taken meds to control my T2D and consider myself a controlled diabetic. I am not cured as I do see my diabetes numbers go up as I gain weight, thus I do my best to control my weight which is controlled by not eating a ridiculous amount of sugar/carbs and exercise which all in combination appears to control my T2D.
I heared your call on Dave Ramsey!
Was this the same guy? Lol I also had to try and find him on TH-cam because I was curious
We heard it too! Awesome job. Quit the Med.

I doubt you’ll see this but I am a type 1 diabetic I got it when I was 7 on Valentine’s Day ironically 😂and I am 21 now. I loved this video, it’s great for people who don’t understand or haven’t really lived around diabetes. I think a great video covering diabetes again would be all or the most important side effects that diabetes has on the body, ie vasoconstriction, nerve damage, taking longer to heal, weakened immune system, and why every diabetic will say in some way or another how important their feet are, specifically making sure you keep your feet healthy, a lot of people i know have asked me why diabetics loose their feet all the time. I have also seen in a criminal minds episode before that diabetics can metabolize drugs faster than someone who isn’t diabetic and I was wondering if you could either confirm or deny ? But I love your videos and I was thrilled to see this video in my timeline!
This is a question I've had for a long time. I shear with my Son. Thank you guy's so much , we need you.. thank you thank you thank you..
Which kind of exercise is best to increase insulin sensitivity: weight training, running , swimming. Kindly share your knowledge.
Focus on nutrition. Reduce or eliminate refined sugars and highly processed foods and you are well on your way. Getting carbs to under 50-g daily (more if morbidly obese) your body will convert to using fats as your primary fuel. This allows easy transition to fasting.
The best exercise is the one you can stick to - it has to be something you can access AND something you at least kind of enjoy. Maybe you live in a place that isn't suitable for year-round outdoor exercise and don't have access to a treadmill or indoor track when it's dangerously hot/cold/etc for a few months. Then running probably isn't the best choice. But maybe you live right next to a school with an indoor track that's free to the public and you find running to be peaceful - then running probably is right for you!

eat sand. not enough to clog the system... but Edgar Cayce Material... said this would be an internal scrub of the walls of the track...for eliminations / asimulations
the tonsil are the regulator of the body. which part is to release what from what area of the body... but it is gone... the makes up .or covers , the best it can... many such stuff in Edgar Cayce Material. if you want to look...

I purchased an exercise bike for my type 1 diabetic wife. Hopefully it will minimize any chance of her getting blisters compared to running and that she will be dissaplined enough to use it.
The best way to explain the mechanism of type 2 diabetes I know. Great job!
As a parent of a t1d I appreciate this video. Could we please have more focus on T1. There are a lot of misconceptions around this condition.
Thank you! Hope you're managing ok!

I'm a diabetic..i greatly appreciated this post..keep up the great work .Im trying to reverse my situation exercising and changing my diet.Most of my family on my mothers side of the family died from a results of diabetes..amputations! Ive seen the worst and it scares me to no end.
While I of course found the video interesting and enjoyable, as a type 1diabetic I get disheartened when discussion around diabetic discussion is heavily focused on type 2, I accept type 1 was touched on in the beginning slightly but In a way I wish the two types simply had different names all together rather than type 1 and type 2.
I've been type 1 for 30 years now, and it's always been like this. I was excited for this video and immediately went to the comments to see if it only focused on type 2.
I actually do agree with that, as Type 2 is much more of a metabolic dysfunction.
@@sendnoodle5 i was interested to see what damage my type 1 does to my body, like i have diabetic retinopathy (abnormal blood vessels in the eyes) i don't know if this you can even dissect an eye to see that. As a young adult who was diagnosed as a kid, i wish there was more content on type 1 that i could learn that wasn't too kid like or too formal and geared for like med students
@@VampireXCookie most of my type 1 skillz are just life experience now. I spent a while not taking care of myself as a young adult. Now, my a1c is 7 (and falling). Lost 60 pounds, started eating better. Switched from Medtronic to Dexcom and Tandem devices. I also smoke weed. I find that lowers my insulin resistance. I did have diabetic retinopathy started, but I have actually reversed it. Good luck!

I just saw your video on Dave Ramsey and I had to come and subbed. Good luck to you and looking forward to your Channel getting to 10M
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes around 6 months back and that moment of scare lead me towards a healthy lifestyle. I was obese and didn't really cared much about exercise or sports but then I started working out and lost a lot of body fat. I am still on the journey to get rid of medicines which my doctor recommended (tho I'm taking them right now) and I'll update here once I have normal or around normal levels of HbA1c results.
Thanks for this video, really need proper education on these topics.
good luck
i wish for your success and never give up
I had an HBA recently and it came at 5.4, Doc has also reduced the medicine from one table to just a 1/2 per day. 😊
Go with KETO and you are good for life😏✌️💪
My son was diagnosed type 1 diabetics at 1 year old.
You guys are awesome I enjoy every video and this one really touched my heart
"If you live long enough, you develop diabetes."
WRONG
If you live long enough, and eat sugar as much as the food companies want you to, you will develop diabetes.
Carbs and nobody force-feeds what you eat. YOU put the food in your mouth.

I've been diagnosed with a fatty liver and I was wondering if you could do a video about it because I admit it does kinda scare me 🥺
😭😭
non-alcoholic or alcoholic?
Thats for drinking too much alcohol? Isn't
@@chinoscars5655 yes or eating too much fructose
Cut out carbs and fruits
I know someone who had diabetes. He completely changed his lifestyle and he is diabetes-free.

I had gained a lot of weight in final year of school because I was focusing on college admissons prep. Suffered through some of the worst headaches of my life for 10 days because I had primary hypertension due to the fact I weighed 120 kgs. After 5 years and 45 kgs never had hypertension or anything resembling it.

Just walking daily for around 1-2 hours will beat type 2. Start of with what you can manage with the long term goal of 2 hours walking daily on top of other activities. When my uncle retired from work he started walking with me daily for around 7 months and the results was amazing his sugar levels was back to normal But if you stop exercising/walking daily there a very high risk it will return. Type 2 requires a complete life style change that require exercise daily (walking) and the odd treat is more than possible if you keep up that exercise routine. If you can't walk far i would really recommend swimming it's very low impact on joints but great all round cardio exercise with great potential for building muscle. Daily exercise routine along side a balance diet and you should see improvements ever 3 months.

I’m not old yet, but I’m glad I’ve been prepping myself for not having diabetes in the future. I tend to just avoid sugary stuff in general except for fruit, and I exercise every day. I used to be in pretty bad shape, but I cleaned myself up and got on the right path.
Super sir I am big respect for your health consciousness because every healthy person make world better
Based on my experience and research, STRESS/EMOTION MANAGEMENT (exercise included to some extent), is the most important tool to combat disease and poor health. I.e. breathwork, meditation, recharging in nature, having hobbies that instill self confidence, etc.
Stress is often a contributor to many diseases/disorders. They challenge is to quantify how much of a contributor to each disorder. Regardless, it is definitely still important to manage all of that stress properly.👍🏻
@@theanatomylab Stress and poor/lack of sleep is a huuuge contributor to insulin resistance.
Came here from the Dave Ramsey TH-cam video. Hey!!
One of the most accurate videos I've viewed concerning type 2 diabetes, in regards to the causes and management of the condition. You are 100% correct that it is not caused solely by consuming excess carbohydrates, as many commercial diet plans claim, but rather by obesity, consuming too many overall calories in the diet and lack of exercise and/or a sedentary lifestyle.
Love how you guys explain each topic in detail!!!
Great explanation. Could you do video on Creatine Kinase elevation across demographics.
Heard you on The Ramsey Show. Best of luck making the jump :-)
I wasn’t the only one looking for him after I heard that call haha. Quite an interesting channel
You guys are just the best! I learn so much!! I'm 51, disabled and have type 2. Ty SO much for your videos! Also, I've always wanted to donate my body to science. I have a kind of anomaly on my kidneys that I think would surprise someone lol I'd love knowing that I'm helping the future! I've had a ton of health issues from a young age but always exercised and ate my veggies. I don't know what happened. But anyways, when I called out big hospital, UAB, the guy said they don't need cadavers. And it'd cost a couple grand to give me back to my family and then they'd be having to bury me after a possible couple of years. Do you have any advice on this? Ty!!!!
That was the most informative descriptions diabetes I’ve ever heard. My doctor told me I was “pre”diabetic. He never really explained it to me. He just told me to keep track of my blood sugar levels. After losing 30 pounds, I no longer showed any signs of diabetes. (I’ve lost a total of 70 lbs.)
My question: What exactly is “pre”diabetes??
It's when your body is starting to build up insulin resistance but isn't quite at the level to be officially diabetes yet
The levels for what is considered diabetes is based on huge clinical trials that take years/decades to perform so sometimes they are a bit arbitrary based on whatever categories those studies examined but still the best we have
Thanks!! This helps me understand my type 1 diabetes better!
Does my pancreas look different from a healthy one? I've been wondering if it'd look slightly damaged.
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
Simply awesome! Greatly expanded!
However, I still don't understand how stress can cause diabetes. I am a software engineer who sits infront of screens, quite a lot of time..and have to deal with a lot of stress
As a result my diabetes levels slightly change post meal, its around 150. My height is 5.99 and weight is 76 kgs.. I am just 25.
Would you please say few words on how can I get that down.
Diabetes (T2) is insulin resistance. Stress causes high insulin. Chronically high levels of insulin cause insulin resistance.

My friend was hospitalized with type 2 a while back. At the time he had no idea he was diabetic. He nearly died and his blood sugar was 1400! He knows nothing about nutrition, anatomy, or health. He can't afford insulin, so his approach was very simple. "Sugar bad.. don't eat it" I got him on a balanced diet plan (since all he knew to cook was frozen pizza and mac n cheese). Whole food, macro balanced, and complex carbs over starchy carbs. He doesn't exercise, but is on his feet all day at work. He lost some weight and avoids sugar at all costs. 18 months and he's never needed a jab. Checks his glucose every day and it's always in the 80 range. I'm not saying he's cured, just wanted to point out that doctors almost never tell diabetics to stop eating sugar. They seem to take the approach of "cut back a little and manage it with medication" like they don't want to tell people they need to change their lifestyle if they want any sort of longevity, or point you in a direction to try to fix the problem, only manage it. I really like this vid, but even here it wasn't spoken "stop eating sugar and go easy on carbs in general" Aside from that, great info! I love this channel!

Very interesting video, what's your take on intermittent fasting and insulin resistance. Also would you consider making a video on lymph nodes and the lymphatic system.
