    My mom is 88 years with dementia. Her fasting glucose was 102. Her endocrinologist and Primary Dr. Said nothing. I cut the ice cream, breakfast cereals, sugar etc. out. I noticed the effect on her memory. Her most recent fasting glucose was improved at 87. The endocrinologist responds by saying “she can have ice cream, she’s not diabetic. She doesn’t have to worry”. THIS is why we have problems.

    "Doctors are stuck..." - true dat! I went sugar-free in January; a weird COVID effect - can't stand the taste of it anymore. Nevertheless, my blood sugar stayed abnormally high and my blood pressure wouldn't come back into healthy range.
    I had been taking Metformin and Triplixam - a three-hit blood pressure medication for about 8 months. After the latest blood test, which showed my sugar levels unchanged despite being 3 months sugar-free (and low carb), I told the doc I wanted off meds to see where my new baseline is.
    "Oh, no. You'll have to be on meds for the rest of your life", she said, prescribing me yet another round of Triplixam and a different glucose-lowering medication. And then, I discovered Triplixam is proven to raise blood sugar and the Metformin alternative is not indicated for hypothyroid patients like me.
    I am now meds (and sugar) free. My blood pressure is back in the normal range and my bloated belly is gone. No idea what my sugar is but I'm not having hypoglycemic attacks anymore and my vision is much clearer.
    My doctor is fired.

      Ironically, having bought into Low carb for 8 years & having little success other than benefitting from no longer eating nutrient-robbing refined wheat/gluten, which in itself solved several issues, I had to give it up in the end when my struggling digestion refused to digest animal protein any longer & my insulin resistance went into orbit & not even injected insulin could get my blood sugar down, whilst it seemed very counter-intuitive, I had no option but to go plant-based.
      I just juiced for the first month (no fats or oils), & whilst my blood sugar remained high for the month as my body cleared out the ectopic fat, by the end of the month my blood sugar dropped, my insulin sensitivity returned & I had to radically cut my insulin intake by more than half (50+ units to 20-25 or even less if I eat no added fat or oil), despite eating loads of (natural) carbs. I also started to lose the weight I’d gained (30+lbs) on LC.
      I loved LC because it gave me ‘permission’ to indulge my love of fatty foods. I’m a self-confessed fat addict. I love it. But it doesn’t love me. My body has no issues burning carbs - with no fat. But having experimented, the more fat I include, the worse my insulin resistance & the more insulin I need to get my blood sugar down. Some do well on LCHF but I found all it did was ‘manage’ my diabetes - until it didn’t any more. Eating HCLF works far better for my body.

    I could be a perfect example, poster child for your research and information. I was 325 pound (middle aged female) when I started keto and IF. I've been a truck driver for over 18 years. And have struggled with my weight and yoyo dieted since I was 10 years old, especially with the low fat craze, back in the 90s, losing and gaining 100s of pounds. Well I began to notice that if I reduced my calories under 1800 I would get terrible hypoglycemia (but not a diabetic...yet), making it impossible to stick to a diet. But once I started keto and got fat adapted I could go all day without food and without being hungry. I was so skeptical about not eating carbs for so long that it took me a while before I even attempted keto and intermittent fasting, I figured it was another scam or fad, like low fat...but luckily I was wrong and I am down 100 pounds and determined to keep going and not gain back this time.

    I was full keto (hard core for 3 years), and always felt terrible, but I knew it was a healthy way to eat so I continued. I recently introduced more carbs (on keto I was at about 35-40g per day) to my menu and feel a lot better. So I guess the bottom line is to balance (tweak) the fat, protein and carbs until you have the right combination.

    As a type 1 diabetic since 30 years, I've had low levels often enough. I think my lowest was 27mg/100. I feel fine above 60 and below 200. But the moment I focus and go on a low carb diet and stick to an 18/6 or 16/8 fast, my glucose levels are much more stable and so are my energy levels.

    Hi Doc i have t2d thats why i did my 7 days fasting, i am on my way today is my 2nd day of my water fast. Now i tested my blood sugar its now 6.1 before the highest is 8.7. i am very happy

  • @adrianadrianescu521
    @adrianadrianescu521 2 ปีที่แล้ว +31

    I have T2D, and I used to have high blood pressure as well. I started high fat-low carb diet at the very beginning of this year, and the results are beyond all my expectations. I lost 40 kg (actually today is when the 40 mark is reached - I was grade III obese, now I am "just" overweight), and I completely stopped the diabetes medication three months ago. The same with blood pressure medication. It is very true what you said about the risk of hypoglycemia. I did OMAD for about two months (now I am eating twice a day), and I had measured the blood sugar levels at least 4 times a day. I can confirm that after more than 18 hours of fasting, AND more than 50 km of continuous biking (or 90 minutes of running, or 1hour of swimming) my blood sugar level was NEVER to low. Even my diabetes doctor here in Finland was amazed by the results. He measured the level of ketones, and he could confirm that I am in a very "powerful" state of ketosis, so that my body is like a very efficient fat burning machine. I also use an application that monitor the three nutrients, and the last 4 week averages are 5% carbs (net), 20% protein, and 74% fat.
    Again I want to thank you, for providing very valuable information that literally can save lives. I also read a lot and follow doctors that promote this type of lifestyle.

      Three weeks after dumping wheat/gluten, my blood pressure dropped & I threw the horrible BP meds away. That was 14 years ago & I’ve never needed them since. And by getting plenty of potassium in my diet, my BP is now ‘perfect’ according to the nurse, at 126/74 (I’m in my mid 60’s).

      currently in Finland too. Got diagnosed with T2D, Doctor said I don't need to avoid carbs because I might have ketoacidosis. Lowered my carbs anyway after seeing no better result with my blood sugar and did Intermittent fasting even if they said I should never be hungry and eat atleast 3 times a day and never ever skip meals, my glucose is now in normal and my headaches are getting lesser. I hope this kind of knowledge will wake up all diabetes Doctors :(

    Thank you for the great simplified information. I love it.
    I am a medical doctor and tired of the growing list of diabetic medications that are making things worse and are not treating the cause of the disease but rather treating numbers. Drug companies are advocating that diabetes is not reversible and once you are diagnosed, half of your beta cells are gone. If so how obese patients are cured after bariatric surgeries.
    I advise many patients to do exactly what you are teaching. Cannot thank you enough.

    Many years ago I had an experience with fasting & homeostasis. From the age of 11 through to @ 35 I had on and off ulcerative colitis. Every where I went the 1st thing on my list was to determine where the bathrooms were located ! Sometime in my 30s I saw an article which extoled the benefits of fasting to rectify health problems. So I did a 6 day fast. I drank water, bone broth, herbal tea, a multi vitamin & electrolytes. After 2 days my apatite went away - switched over to burning fat stores. After a day of working at my motorcycle repair shop I would meet a tennis buddy & play 2 or 3 hrs / sets. I actually seemed mentally sharper & had plenty of energy. On the 6th day I started feeling a bit hungry. My colitis had disappeared so slowly I begin eating small amounts of food. My G. I. tract did a reset to ' Normal ' & I have not had any bouts of colitis since ! I'm now 72 & my A1C has been going up so I have started a new fast. Thanks for this article / video.

My blood sugar still is stuck between 110 to 140, if I take the metformin or not. I believe it’s causing a blocking effect. Going to stop taking them and monitor my blood 4 times a day and see what happens. I did keto many times and bought the keto test strips but never seem to go into ketosis. Why? Regardless the blood sugar is going down and so is the weight. Thank you so much!

    I could reduce my weight by about 14 Kgs.

I went from 285 pounds to 270 in two weeks, and mentioned it to my uncle. He pointed me towards Dr. Ekberg's videos, and after absorbing a bunch, I have started a five-day water only fast (pray for me!) to hopefully "reset" my body, after which I will be going to an 18 hour fast cycle with a 48 or 72 hour fast every month. I will be dropping my carbs to below 50 grams a day, and see what happens. Thanks, doc!
