My mom's average blood sugar is about 140mg/dL if she follows the diet McDougall is describing. But that's with no pills, and only 20 units of insulin per day. Before she had the diet right, her average blood sugar, with metformins, glipizide, actos, insulin, and chromium picolinate, was 320. So, when the food is right, her range is between 70 and 180. BUT, just as soon as she gets a bit lenient with the meat and fats, sure as the sunrise, her range starts to go up. After one week of dietary indiscretion, her range is up to 90 to 200, after two weeks, it's 110 to 220, and every week she keeps it up, her average goes up 20 points. Until last week, her blood sugar was 400. And I said, "look. What the hell are you doing!?!?" So, she caught her head, and ate sweet potatoes, fruit, brown rice, broccoli, a diet of 5% fat.
Within a SINGLE WEEK, her daily peak went down from 400 to 200. And this morning, her reading was 87mg/dL. And she told me that her thinking is clearer, and her mood is better. So.....if you fall off the diet....do not fret. Just get back on that bucking bronco of your food addiction battles, and be the locus of control, of YOUR HEALTH DESTINY!
If your saying your mother eats sweet potatoes and her sugar goes down your lying
If I eat a sweet potato or piece of fruit my blood sugar goes from 110 to over 200. There is no way you can beat diabetes with fruit and starches. They are what cause diabetes
@@Anthony-xt7im Have you listened to the video? McDougall actually cites a study where adding refined sugar to the test subjects' diet improved insulin sensitivity. I.e. as I understand it, blood sugar regulation would improve, which would help normalize average blood sugar level
@@Anthony-xt7im I understand why you feel that way. I wish I was your personal dietitian, so I might be able to assist you. And maybe there's a little misunderstanding. My mom's range is 70 to about 200. If she eats 4 or 5 sweet potatoes in one meal, her glucose goes up to 180 to 200, but if she's having butter on her sweet potatoes, her glucose will peak at nearly 300 and stay there for a long time, 6 hours or more. If she eats just the sweet potato, her glucose might peak at 200, but it's down to 160 or less within an hour.
It's when she starts eating a lot of meat and grease, THEN her glucose goes WAY up. On the diet McDougall recommends, her a1c is 6.4, but compared to the 16.5 she had a few years ago, we're calling that a win!
@@Anthony-xt7im You need to acquaint yourself with real world data, instead of listening to (I assume you are) low carb talking points. Read Kempner's data. I have....all 960 pages of it....trust the data.
i reversed my pre diabeties , & other illnesses by eating all plants !! tnx Chef AJ, & dr John & Mary, saved my life finding all u on yt. We don't even have a family dr any more, tfs xoxo
Patty....yea....good for you!
@@betzib8021 thank u so much. Yes, & i never felt so good, that i recall, in my 70 years. 🙏
That is awesome but remember even Dr. Mcdougall says that doctors provide some help with acute issues. I don't have a regular doctor, either.
@@RiDankulous hello & ty for sharing that. Oh yes, they sure do, our last dr. caught a problem with my hubby, both him & the heart specialist that put the 3 stents in his heart, said, he was 2 wks from having a heart attack. Bless him tnx
@@pattypop52 That is excellent they saved his life! Glad you are on the right diet. There aren't many of us.
I only wish I had been familiar with this program years ago. Better late than never.
I feel exactly the same way! I'm just getting on track now.
See time 1:00:23, on low fat vegan, 70% of 1703 participants were able to reduce or stop their diabetic medications.
But on ONLY fatty red meat, all participants would stop their diabetic medications, within 3 months.
This was excellent. What a crime that drug corporations have the power that prevents so many diabetics from receiving this information.
Thank you ( #DREWI1 ) for being the reason I’m smiling today, I still can’t believe I am cured for diabetes with the help of the herbs you send to me
Thank you again. Indeed a video to share. I myself don't suffer from diabetes or obesity although decades ago I was at BMI 24.9 and felt fat and wished I wasn't; vegan since 2000. Have often shared videos but it's astounding how close minded people are: long videos, short videos, people remain dazzled and obsessed by proteinproteinprotein meaning of course exclusively animal protein, especially paneer which is firm cottage cheese the national Indian craze since decades now, and 'curd' or dairy yoghurt, a daily staple for many, also eggs and chicken for the 70% non vegetarians. Doctors and dieticians routinely tell all patients it seems including diabetes patients (or even especially diabetic patients) to have more of these foods: I heard a doctor on television during the pandemic advising diabetic patients to have more eggs. For protein. Potatoes and rice are feared. So I shall share this video to overweight, obese, diabetic, hypertensive and other patients. They won't watch it and won't pay heed even if they do watch a snatch; and already think I'm weird since I'm vegan...
That's what my doctor told me to have more cheese and eggs for calcium and iron and vitamins D 🤔
@@crystaltorres7313 those foods come with a load of cholesterol, saturated fat, hormones, antibiotic residues and allergens affecting many. If instead you ea5 whole legumes like beans, peas chickpeas, lentils; whole grains preferably intact seeds; various vegetable definitely including green ones you'll get calcium and iron. Vitamin D is added to dairy so you might as well take the supplement directly and the hest source is bright sunlight on bare skin. Minus the negative things I mentioned.
Thoughts on Berberine, citrus bergamot, GTF chromium, Alpha lipoic acid, and benfotiamine to help manage and get blood sugar under control along with a healthy diet, exercise, and good sleep?
Well I just ran into your show and I have all those things so I'm open and listening for your cures I've also gotten a reset book how to reset so what is your philosophy
thank you what a great video Dr McDougall
Thank you for sharing! Always love listening to McDougall
I so need this Dr.
My doctor was more than thrilled when he thought I wanted to go on insulin.
No kidding
I've been doing the starch diet without oil for a month however I'm still taking 8 units of fast acting insulin with meals and 10 units of long lasting but my levels are still running over 10mmol . is there any hope?
Have you considered hidden sources of fat? A candy bar is typically 40% fat. Processed foods almost always contain fat - because it tastes so good. Don't you just love to slather a whole stick of genuine butter on your popcorn?
Try eliminate starch and do ketogenic high fat diet
@@danpan001 that might reduce my A1c, but I don’t believe it will help me be any healthier I’ve chosen to reduce the starches a little and eat more raw fruits and vegetables. I will never eat meat again.
@@roligue you need fat try coconut oil
@@danpan001 I use ground flaxseed or chia all other oils are too high in omega 6
What is the name of that herb or herbs.
What is the physiological process by which a high sugar diet cures diabetes ?
You apparently didn't watch the video.
Great question. High sugar force the pancreas produce more insulin which leads to insulin resistance and eventually the pancreas gives up no more insulin leads to high glucose which is diabetes. So does eating more sugar and carbs make sense to you?
I don't take insulin I take a pill that my doctor prescribed called glimepiride 2mg , metoprolol 25mg, my A1C is 83, I was just diagnosed in February I'm learning all about what it is to be type 2 diabetes , I'm 150 lb and I've never had a diet in my life so I'm trying to learn information on how to manage and how to reverse diabetes would be great if you could send me info or video
A Beyond, Awesome Video, I love your Site, and You are so, Amazing, Dr. McDougall, love, Diana Lipski 😍 long, Video, but, so, Worth it, I don't, have Diabetes I love the Knowledge to be able to try to Open People's Eye up, have a Wonderful, Tuesday and thank you Chef AJ, too! Great Job 👍
Thanks!
Huge, huge thanks, Dr. McDougall, for this excellent presentation. Added to my favorite playlist. This is exactly what I need. I got more assurance that my decision to not take my mom to a doctor was right. My mom is 72 years old, and she has blurry vision. Just few days ago she got her blood sugar tested, and it was 295mg/DL.
Thank you so much Dr Obulor @youtube, for your full dedication to your work and knowledge you compose to save lives. Keep up the Good work sir,,,,
Thank you so much Dr McDougall for the lectures you are sharing on TH-cam. Thank you Chef AJ for bringing attention to Dr McDougall. Very valuable information and education. Much appreciated.
Thank you, Dr. McDougall, thank you for sharing ❤️ this wonderful video on type diabetes ❤️
What about skinny people with T2 diabetes? I have heard that they exist.
Skinny people (assuming they don't have T1 diabetes) are diabetic because of the saturated (animal) fat they eat-saturated fat competes with insulin at the insulin receptors on walls of muscle cells.
I r 1
Does type A-2 dairy/protein also react the same way with autoimmune reactions/insulin/beta cells?
In other words is it better to consume A-2 dairy?
Get rid of all animal protein. In particular, casein is a big source of inflammation, according to "The China Study."
I've just begun this way of eating and I'm having what I think is a hypoglycemic response; shaky, weak feeling and feel like I need to eat right away. Eating cures this feeling. I am pre-diabetic and overweight. I don't measure my blood sugar. Is it normal to be having this experience when starting The Starch Solution? What can help me through this? Thank you, and I love eating this way!
I have the same problem with hypoglycemia when I try to eat this way. I so would appreciate some insight into this!

Give it a few weeks very low fat (aim for 10-20 grams or less a day) takes a little time for the fat to leave the cell receptors to achieve optimum uptake of sugar. I felt dizzy for a few weeks, then went away. This also helped me get off coffee. 1/2 cup sugar in a liter of water/fruit juice each day. No dizziness anymore. Kept fat to 10 grams a day. The sugar also completely killed any cravings for fatty greasy foods including chocolate and ice cream. I lost 1% body fat in 6 weeks. (I’m within 5 pounds of my target so loss is slower.) But NO fat gain, even with all that sugar each day. No muscle loss. Hope this helps you as well.
Try doing some intermittent fasting.
Just skip breakfast , just drink coffee & tea. Skip lunch also if u can & just eat a big dinner & fruit snack
@@themcdougallprogram I am eating mostly starch in the form of brown rice, corn, shredded wheat, grapenuts. With that I am eating a fruit, mostly cantaloupe, mango, bananas and a medjool date on my cereal for sweetness. I haven't been great with the green vegetables and wonder if not eating enough of them will affect my outcome. Does that make a huge difference? Thank you for your advice and I will now be careful not let too much time pass between meals.
I can’t get my head around the “extreme weight lose “ with diabetes. I thought if you lost weight it would reverse diabetes.
high blood glucose pulls water out of the (blood) serum and you pee lots and lots of the "water" with the glucose. so you are thirsty all the time, and you can lose up to 1,000 calories a day in the glucose that gets peed out. thus, more urine, more thirst, sudden weight loss.
I once thought so too. I was 260 lbs. Eventually got down to 145 lbs, where I've been for about ten years now. I'm still diabetic. Height is 5'10".
Carnivore was helping, but for me was economically unsustainable with my low paying job. I learned about Dr McDougall a few days ago, and small now on Day 3 of the starch diet. Only one way to find out if it will help me get things turned around. Gonna do it for two weeks and see how I feel on this diet.
What if your kidneys were damaged by radiological contrasts and now you have chronic kidney disease stage 3b like myself? I found out that I’ve become prediabetic, I’m underweight and for years have been on a whole plant based diet?
Get a Viome test so the A.I. can tell you the best and worst foods for your microbiome.Type in Dr Mono to learn more. The best to you!

hola amiga gracias por ete contenido ace 3años venia a base almicones y frutas estoy a tiempo solamente unos ajuste y vamos adelante poca frutas por la fructosa y el aguacate aceite oliva huevo saludo
Ask David Sinclair about metformin
Do you still have his number?
I'm confused. I've been following the ketogenic diet, and now I see this. I give up!
There is no one size fits all. You need a blood sugar monitor and check all the different foods you consume to see what is good or bad for you.
Dr McDougall is clearly laying out the science in this talk. I would suggest just to try out Dr McDougall's recommended way of eating for a few weeks.
Everyone's microbiome is unique. Low carb with monounsaturated fat works best for me. Bite the bullet and get a Viome test .
If you eat the way McDougall recommends, after a Keto diet, your blood sugar numbers are going to be dangerously high, since Keto induces SO much insulin resistance. If you want to switch to a starch and veggie + fruit diet, you're simply going to have to eat an extremely low calorie dense diet for a few weeks. Lots of greens, low sugar fruits like cucumber, tomato, bell peppers, zucchini....et cetera....and then begin to add in the lowest glycemic starches, like lentils and al dente sweet potato, and al dente oat groats, al dente brown rice. You're gonna want to keep your starches SLIGHTLY undercooked (make sure you boil beans for 12 solid minutes to deactivate harmful toxins in raw beans!) and though a slightly crunchy, albeit cooked, sweet potato, might not be the most delicious thing, it will greatly reduce blood sugar spikes, while you adjust yourself away from keto.
Doing lots of walking will also help moderate your blood sugar.
ALSO - If you are currently on medications/insulin, you MUST tell your doctor what you are going to change, so that meds can be adjusted.
Ive started taking the blood sugars over the past week but the highest figures are consistently in the morning when I havent eaten for around 14 hours. Dont get it.
Good informative video as usual, not sure about the Sabertooth reference 😁
Mom and sister on Metformin both passed
Did they try to change their diet? Like Ketogenic diet?
@@danpan001 no they would not
@@danpan001 no, no matter how much I tried to convince them, they also both had COPD
But how do you increase insulin sensitivity when you are thin?
Sugar (Carbohydrate) makes Insulin work better. Dietary fat makes it worse.
You don't have to be fat to get diabetes, you just need to eat a high fat meaty diet. Or any diet if your pancreas gets damaged.
If it's just the diet, change it. If it's the pancreas you'll need to add insulin to the diet Dr. McDougall recommends to make the most of the insulin you inject.
@@virginiatozier9957 how do you know if it's the pancreas?
@@roligue Are you physically capable of walking for an hour at a time?
Try some intermittent fasting, skip breakfast or breakfast & lunch & then have a big dinner & fruit snack.
I lost the last 25 lbs because I was eating & snacking 6-8 times a day
I always prayed for a day like this to when I will be able to get rid of diabetes all thanks to dr gboya on TH-cam for making that happen 😊.
Don't, give up. U must go through the fat withdrawal in order to clean out your clogged up pancreas. Takes about 3 weeks!
21:06 Before 1980, 1990 and 2000, starvation was common in China. Meat and dairy were luxuries. Post year 2000, Chinese sugar, candy, and processed foods (stuff in bags and boxes) became commonplace. Pre-2000, you'd be hard pressed to find a fat person; post 2010, fat people abound. Chinese were thin due to hard living conditions (hard work) and lack of food.
they still work incredibly hard over there dude, its the DIET
In 2003, I went to China from USA.. Chinese people were very thin in 2000 compare to Chinese living in USA..
Sir Dr MacDougall if you could spread light on ghee(fermented milk churned to fat and heated to exclude milk protein) and black seeds( nigella sativa) I would be blessed 😊
Words failed me on how to appreciate you for sending your Herbs to me after I place my or order which cured my diabetic Dr Igudia
I would like to believe the content of this presentation however i just monitored my glucose level after eating hclf meal and it was alarming : way more than 190 from an average of 126. Why such high value? We all have different food metabolism, so we can’t generalize on the type of diet.
One thing i agree with is that we have to real try hard to get off medication and practice good diet.
As a diabetic, your sugars will always top 200. As long as it goes below 180 within four hours, you're safe. After four hours, sugar's bond to protein becomes permanent. This is not an issue with protein that is continually replaced like hemoglobin. It's a problem with protein which is slowly replaced, like nerve cells, especially in the eyes. These accumulated bonds will eventually interfere with your vision. Also, as the good doctor said, it takes a couple of weeks for excess circulating fat in your blood vessels to clear out, and your sugars will remain high.
I followed a vegan diet for 4 years. I became more sick and miserable and struggled to keep my weight under controle. Then I prayed and fasted, and discovered dr Ken Berry's youtube videos, and have not looked back. ❤👌🏽🙏 Now I am eating a proper human diet, and love my life🎉🎉🎉😊
Do you work for Ken Berry?
You fond the right diet. Telling diabetics to eat sugar and carbs is medical malpractice.
I am ex keto carnivore, I know all that carnivore and keto folks become diabetic after being on this diets.
You did not eat correct, its not a vegan diet fault but yours. I havent met an ex vegan who admitted he did mistakes while being vegan.
Cool story bro
@@dictarenot saying to eat processed sugar
Most times the step we are afraid to take might just be the right one. I'm forever grateful to #drogoh for his genius treatment for my diabetes infection and for not allowing me down.🥳
👍👍🥰🥰
Cut the FAT and OIL
I’m going to eat sugar and potatoes for lunch. I’ll post my blood sugars after.
If you wanted to run the experiment, you'd first need to get your a1c tested. Then, eat nothing but potatoes, sweet potatoes, and sugar, fruit, and some green leafy veggies, every meal of every day for three months, then get your a1c tested again.
My mother did just that. Her a1c went from >12 to 8 in three months. And it took another 48 months for it go down to 6.5. This was after being diabetic for 35 years.
What were the results?
@@peter5.056 I have seen your comments for YEARS but this was by far the best one.
I thank you so much Dr Igudia for sending your Herbs to me which actually cured my Type 2 diabetes’s. Now I’m free and enjoying my new life
bly appreciate your kind gesture Dr Omoruyi,you have always able to help with any health issues,the diabetes sickness was something the world thought has no cure but I’m happy to say today that I’ve been cured and I’m glad to have you as my doctor
