My father found out he was pre-diabetic around 2020/2021. He actually managed to reverse the effects and is no longer pre-diabetic. He lost a ton of weight. He went from around 90kg to 72kg. He did that by being super strict with his diet and exercising 6 to 7 days a week. His weight went up again to 80kg, but it has stayed there for over a year now. I'm super proud of his results. He's 64 at the moment.
Thats actually great, good for your dad
Your father is great😊
how did he get pre-diabetic?
Exposure to excessive amounts of sugar will cause insulin resistance, pancreatic insulin production failure, and other conditions. Having devloped these diseases but being able to still manage your sugar is essentially prediabetes.@@TheHippyHoppyHippo

My father was a type 1 diabetic. He had it since he was 16, got it from my grandfather. Since type 1 is usually genetic. I feel so bad for him. The amount of diabetic episodes he had, all the pain he went through, and to have his health crumble so fast the last few years especially. He just passed away this Halloween. First my mother died on Christmas when I was 3 in 2003, and now my father dies on Halloween. At this rate I'll have no Holidays left. I miss him so much man. It kills me every day when I see anything that reminds me of him, including this video and the topic of diabetes. Or when I hear a Don Henley or Led Zeppelin or Billy Joel song, or when I watch any movies from his time. I wish I could have him alive for just one more day, to hug him like he's never been hugged before in his 60 years, and tell him just how much I freaking love him. Man I'm crying typing this, I miss him so freaking much. And I regret so bad how I treated him the last month of his life.
I miss you dad. I'm sorry for all the people that took advantage of you in your life. I'm sorry I didn't show you the love you deserved while you were alive. I'm such a jerk. I'm glad though that you no longer have to deal with this disease, or your gastroparesis, or your eye problems, or all the anxiety and all the abuse and pain you've felt all your life, I'm happy you can rest now father. You earned it man. It's my turn to carry the pain, and I'll do everything I can to show you I love you! Please rest dad, I miss you!
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me!
The greatest father I could ever ask for

I bet your dad is with you always and smiling down proud at you.
I understand guilt of loved ones who’ve passed just learn to forgive yourself. So sorry for your losses I will send well wishes your way and say a prayer. 🙏🏻 ❤
I am a type 1 diabetic too and I appreciate all the tech that is with us now to combat this disease especially CGM's. I lost my father on Christmas day and miss him more than words can ever describe but he along with myself are believers in the Lord above and I find peace knowing he is in good hands and I think of him constantly which brings a smile most of the time and when I do shed a tear it usually is quickly replaced by a smile in due time. I hope you find peace like I have my friend. Sounds like your dad was a great human being.
So sorry for your loss
Soren, I can “partially” understand your pain.
I lost my mum at a very early age too.
My Dad will soon be at an end but this is the natural cycle of life, think of the good times and it sounds like your Dad, like mine, was a gentleman and a good father!
Best wishes my friend.
I'm so sorry for your loss my friend, my step father whom I consider my father provided me and our family with a wonderful home and gave it his all to be a good dad, worked hard all his life, served in the military and took me in as though I were his own son, he was diagnosed with type 1 about 2 years ago and it's progressively gotten worse, the disease is shredding him to pieces and now he is a shell of a person, won't eat, bed bound and now in hospice care, we are all doing what we can to ease his transition into his final slumber and I hope it is soon, so his fight will be over but at the same time I don't want him to go, but just tonight I realized he is already gone, his mind is lost from lack of food, nutrients, loss of his own father, stress, depression, it tears me apart to see him this way and part of my mind is denying any of this is real as a means of coping and self preservation. Just today I told my friend, "I feel like someone will pull back the curtains and say it was all an act, none of it was real.."
I'm going to lose my step dad soon and it's just so sad.. but I know many have come and gone throughout human history and the human mind has faced many tragedies and still endured, I am glad for those of us who are still here i.e. friends and family and the life that is still contained within them. My step dad is pretty young too only 57 but this disease is accelerating his demise. My heart goes out to anyone struggling with losing or have lost any loved ones, this life is hard, impossible at times..
I think of Type II Diabetes as a condition, instead of a disease. You can greatly improve it, or eliminate it through diet and exercise.
Reversal of Type II is rare. You can manage the condition with a low-carb diet and exercise and maybe supplementation, but most of the time as soon as you eat something that spikes your insulin, the cellular resistance returns in minutes. Even if your blood glucose has been trending "normal" for months or years.
Think management, not cure. It works. Do NOT take statins whatever you do.
Yes the condition is the outcome of the disease called insulin resistance.
How do you regenerate died cell ?
@@palashdubey8827 One of the best way to do that is by fasting which has many benefits
@@palashdubey8827 you don't, but here is the question are you sure they died?
I used to be prediabetic. I've cut back drastically on sugars and have managed to reverse it, for now. I do have a few symptoms of nerve issues in my limbs, but they are mild and rare.
Good job jane
👍
Great for you.
It's funny that the narrator says that the higher insulin levels you have the higher risk of vascular disease you have and yet the accepted treatment for diabetes is injecting even higher levels of insulin than your pancreas can create. Pure madness.
I am type 2 diabetic and refused insulin and cut down my carbohydrates instead. I believe overdosing on insulin is the major cause of diabetic disorders in people.
I think there are a lot of people that disregard the potential mental and emotional dysfunctions that can cause eating disorders, which keeps people trapped in a vicious cycle that perpetuates Type-2. I was there. at 255 lbs, my blood sugar hit 864, and I ended up in the hospital. I was Type 2 for 6 or 7 years. I focused on low carb, OMAD, periods of intermittent fasting. I started to deal with my emotional eating [such a succinct way to sum up the last year of my life]. As of last April, my Type-2 was officially removed from my chart by my PCP. I'm down to 175ish. And I'm a lazy B@5t@RD. So if *I* can do it, *I KNOW* you can ^^. [to clarify, I started making these changes about two weeks short of a year ago.]
That's amazing! Thanks for sharing. This helped me remind.
I'm working on controlling my calotic intake and activity levels. Been struggling with compulsive eating since childhood. Though I have been lucky so far, I hope to prevent pre-diabetes from ever developing.
@@naraferalina2308 , I wish you the best in your endeavor to maintain your health!! The mental/emotional aspects of our lives have a HUGE impact on our overall health. Stress is a big factor, some may lose excessive weight others may gain excessive weight. But we also can't deny genetic elements which can lead to chemical imbalances causing some people to process nutrients differently. It's not to disregard personal choices but we can't deny that these elements can have a negative impact upon our choices. I know that my own health suffered horribly, I gained so much weight without even realizing how bad my health was in the 4 yrs I was taking care of my beloved Mother in the last years of her life.... I took her to all of he weekly treatments, all of the doctor apts/bad news here and there, in/out of the hospital and nursing facility for rehabilitative services and then when at home, the "accidents" to clean up in the bed, the floor, the constant moaning and cries of pain, being up with her in the middle of the night to just sit with her and rub her back and try to comfort her amidst her "spitting-up" episodes because 75% of her stomach was in her chest cavity.... The devices/equipment she had to use and 2 months before I lost her, I had to call an ambulance at 3am to come get me! She actually called me around 10 that morning to tell me she was being discharged from the hospital and I had to tell her I was in the same hospital in the emergency department....
Anyway, I've been trying to come back from the "grave" as I continue to deal with what's left behind. Much of it has been being on medication for my heart etc., I quit caffeine immediately. I drink just juice and water and I cut out a lot of the cooking of fatty foods, most food I now bake along with incorporating more fruit/veges. I haven't been to a FF restaurant in almost a year to which my waist line and wallet appreciate. Caloric intake and expenditure is key but we have to maintain protein levels as well so that your body doesn't begin to consume your muscle tissue! Idk how much weight I've lost but I know it's a lot because I not only can see the difference but my clothes fit better etc. My initial bloodwork everything was in the RED, a year later, now all of my stats are in GREEN. My cholesterol was over 200, now it's around 130. The other important factor IS getting some aerobic/anaerobic exercise too! Just walking 20-30min per day helps with those who can't do much to start. For others some walking for a warm-up and then doing some weight lifting is an even better benefit.

Sorry to ask, but did u have hyperglycemia?
My father in law who suffers from diabetes said, Diabetes is the only illness that forces you to take care of yourself & eat healthy.
They never said what causes diabetes in the first place - refined sugar specifically, and processed foods in general. there is no medicine that can counteract those poisons. just get rid of the processed food. easier said than done, but it is possible. and it is the only way to reverse diabetes.
@@a64750 sure that is why people who eat the most carbs and sugars have the lowest diabetes rates
These blanket statements trying to make Sugar/carbs/processed foods the root of all evil is absolutely false, and only proves that your primary source of info on this subject are from other misinformed youtubers/ticktokers. If you've ever read actual scientific and medical literature, and not cherry pick data, you will find that development of Type 2 Diabetes is a lot more complex and depends on various other factors. While I can't explain the entire set of literature in just one comment, I'll make the following points:
While genetics can also be a factor, Obesity is actually the primary factor in developing Type 2 Diabetes. High levels of Free Fatty Acids highly contribute to insulin resistance. Other factors that increase insulin resistance is lack of physical activity, because the more active you are, the more insulin sensitive you become.
It just happens that those who tend to be on the obese side of the spectrum are likely getting that way because they're over-eating calorically dense foods, which Includes (but are not exclusive to) excess of processed foods which also tend to be high in sugars and FATS (people seem to forget the high amounts of fats in those types of foods, but blame everything on carbs). Additionally, these individuals tend to be less active. Add all that together for the long term and you get higher risk of Type2.
Inversely, as they lose weight and increase activity, you'll find that many can reverse Type2. It just happens that for many, one of the easier ways to lower caloric intake is to cut down on the carbs/sugars/processed foods. Thus, there is a misconception that those types of foods causes type2, and by cutting them out, it can reverse it. It's basically misunderstanding the association, and many of these youtube "doctors" are regurgitating bad info.
There's more to this, but that's the basics. And here's some additional logic for you. There are MANY Athletes, and other active individuals, that consume a high amount of carbs/sugars to fuel their activity. You'll find that the statistics for them to develope Type2 are a tiny fraction compared to those on the opposite side of the spectrum. And in those cases, where active, thin, individuals developed Type2, it has more to do with genetics, and other factors that require professional medical diagnosis.

Well said.
@@quickcube2834uh you’re right, please focus on high fructose corn syrup and get as much into your system as you can and often.
Also binge as much tv as you can. Only eat food that has vegetable oil, especially a sugary deep fried donut. 😊
@@ruidadgmailcanada8508 i didn‘t said sth about oils or fats or did i?
And yes vegans for example have 77% lower diabetes type two rates compared to omnivores dispite of this eating 10% more carbs.
For me personal i ate 5 times as much fructose this year compared two the last 3 years and dispite of this i have now an avarage blood fasting sugar of 80 while back then i had 95
hyperglycemia, Hyper means high, glyc means glucose and emia means presence in the blood, High Glucose (Sugar) Presence in the blood.
Our bodies are miraculous
they are not ours, they live on their own, "we" are passengers
It’s just sad for me that conditions like this exist and people suffer from it, I feel really bad for anyone who goes through this. What makes us have diabetes more is that we don’t have a lot of healthy food around the world today.
I disagree. Its just that sugary foods are so normalized today and people just eat these foods without thinking about the sugar content or even caring about how much sugar and carbs they are eating. At Walmart for example there are loads of sugary foods all over the place and many are close the cash registers making it easy to grab them. When at the same Walmart you can get a 5 pound frozen chicken breast for like 15 dollars and cook it at home and eat healthier. Eating healthy does not have to be expensive, it just takes a little more work and planning because the society makes the sugary foods easier to access and sugar is also addictive. Try going completely sugar free for a couple of weeks and you will feel cravings for sugar when you don't need it. Our ancestors survived and evolved just fine without any refined sugar in their diet.
@@rangerjesse1659 i see what you are trying to say, but a lot of people just over do it. Yes.
@@user-uv7up4vg6i you are correct. but what im trying to say is though is that like, people don't really seem to care what's in the food and just eat it. But yes, food can be healthy. it just seems that people don't seem to have care in it.
@@MOMOPEACH1633Very true, but there’s also a lot dishonesty in the processed food industry, crap marketed as ‘low fat’ and ‘no added sugar’ is more often worse than its original version. Eating Whole Foods is the way to go. Fresh is best
@@rangerjesse1659 At the hospital where I work there are vending machines full of sugary junk food. If you want more, there is an in-house McDonald's, and a few feet away there are big posters advertising the heart program that the hospital offers. 😄

It's lifestyle choices that caused it, so yes fight to make permanent changes for good health now. Decades of insulin resistance before glucose levels are out of control from excess processed foods/sweets & lack of exercise
Carnivore diets can save you from diabetes and reverse it 100%.
@@Acts-1322 It's very little to do with 'lifestyle choices' - this is a myth perpetuated by those who believe in 'free will' (which usually derives from an imagined god writing in 3000 year-old scribblings from a time when humans knew almost nothing). This latter belief simplifies it for those who find complex etiology too much to understand or to wrestle with morally. It's also a good excuse to punish those who have this condition to make them feel better about themselves by feeling superior.

i have type 1 diabete since i was 4 and it is sucks but for the most part its fine as long as i dont over give myself insulin or over eat carbs

It can be reversed lowering the sugar and carbohydrates, switching to ketogenic diet or carnivore diet, along with intermittent fasting.
don't forget exercising
I don’t think it’s reversible in all cases. Even with keto diet, exercise and weight loss.

If you rely on doctors to tell you about your health you will learn very little - this is not medical workers' role - we don't have the time. You need to do your own reading. And no, docs are not lying to you or trying to hide information (how could they anyway?). The Internet is your friend.

Agree! PHD or ketovore does it!
@@tallcedars2310whats PHD mean?
@@frankfromfresno Check out Dr. Ken Berry as he coined the term PHD=Proper Human Diet. This is a species specific diet that has been around since time immemorial. Makes people feel like they did when they were teens! Read the comments for more info too.
so.. as long I eat less sugary food or food that easily transforms into sugar (cake, pancake, bread, pizza, pasta, rice, pudding, noodles, pastry, cookie, crackers, biscuits, french fries, corn, kids cereal etc.) to prevent building up my insulin resistance I'll be fine right
Yup. Relinquish those processed sugary foods from your diet. Don't consume any candy, soda, syrup, cookie, chocolate, juice, ice cream, alcohol, cake, pastries, etc for rest of your life. also do some exercise at daily basis.
Embrace vegan, carnivore, keto, or whatever healthy balanced diet that you like. Just don't eat processed sugary foods.
You should do keto DIET and use sugar free products , get rid of diabetes intermittent fasting and drink a lot of green tea
Never do diet! It is like kiļlļing your self for nothing. Also the body needs sugar so you can not quit it entirely
Edit: do not drink a lot of green tea, it is bad too. If it has antioxidants does not mean it is safe. Everything must be consumed in boundaries. It is enough one or two coups per day.@@dollfaceandsweetcake
High fructose corn syrup... kryptonite .. 😢
Since they started adding high fructose corn syrup to soda pop, salad dressings, ketchup, barbeque sauce, and other foods the rate of Diabetes in this country has skyrocketed. There is a movement among many healthcare professionals to have it banned and go back to using real sugar instead. It would sure make a difference.
Superman ?
Cane sugar is also bad, but only at a fraction of super dooper kryptonite.
Hydrolyzed oils, high carb foods like bread even carrots.

Indeed
“Some things never change “instead of just checking people’s weight and blood pressure, when going to doctors visits, they should check for glucose levels in the blood,also ..many folks out there are unaware they have abnormal glucose levels,until they head to the ER for getting sick from it..
Docs should check out what is going in the mouths of these patients first.

@@JohnSmith-xx9th Yup.
Diabetes is the root of all diseases. It needs control for the early ages. It is also a chronic disease which slows everything after a certain of years. It mainly happens when there is excess glucose in blood or urine. Our body cannot carry limited amount of glucose thus, it spreads all over. If we maintain a regular balanced and healthy diet chart hope we will be overcome through this situation.
We inject insulin for decreasing glucose in our body. Pancreas produces 2 hormones: insulin and glucagon. Glucagon helps to increase glucose level. So, if both of these hormone is working properly everything is fine. If not, either problem in insulin or in pancreas
Don't eat much processed/sweetened food or beverages. Build muscle, keep active.
I would say that daily regular exercise is the key to keeping healthy. As Jack LaLanne, the Godfather of Fitness always taught "Exercise gives you a "high" and makes you feel "good" and that decreases the hormones craving food to "fill up that empty feeling". A Psychiatrist never made the connection, but Jack did and so he knew exercise was better than a pill.

Man...i am fighting signs of pre-diabetes and seeing so much high bg and bp in so many people. I wish the video would give some hopeful, possible ways to combat it..besides pharmaceuticals

Yeah! Seems simple enough! Thanks 😄
See Dr. Sten Ekberg on youtube. Basically you can cure prediabetes with zero-carb keto and intermittent fasting. It will be very difficult for a couple of weeks to transition to this. And some of it may seem counter-intuitive. You'll be living off of saturated fats and protein for about six months. Many will claim I speak blasphemy and shout my opinions down, but the results speak for themselves in me and many others.
Check out the carnivore diet to heal diabetes.
Can I take a insulin patch if I were to start having diabetes? Omnipod, and pair that with Dexcom G7?
Diabetes is due to Chronic Carbohydrate Overdose Syndrome. Meaning that people are consuming too many carbs for years and years.

You would need to explain how the Kempner Rice Diet of white rice, sugar, and fruit juice reverses T2 diabetes if your assertion is true. Unhealthy fats that accumulate in muscle cells that interfere with insulin receptor bindings has more explanatory power. Huge excess of refined carbs can be converted to fat via de novo lipogenesis, but the body much prefers to store excess calories of fat you eat instead of this conversion.

I am a 67 year old power lifter I don't have diabetics and I also don't have high cholesterol or high blood pressure, I also have healthy liver and kidneys and heart. I don't eat sugar, I use stevia and I only eat fresh healthy food rich in collagen. Sugar attaches to proteins in the bloodstream and produces harmful free radicals that can be particularly damaging to collagen, and premature aging of the skin. As an athlete I don't drink protein that's full of sugar and I don't use steroids. My opinion Collagen is important for your skin and strong and healthy bones that is not steroid. In the Netherlands I see people eating a lot of sugar and also children I believe too much sugar can lead to diabetes.

Don't all your cells require insulin to use glucose...?
I am on a strict plant based diet. My A1C is 5.3 but my blood glucose is very high. How can that be? Also, my vision loss is still getting worse.
Are you diabetic on medication other than insulin?
Vegetables like potato, grains like wheat, send my glucose levels soaring but medication gets it back down too low at times. I'm stuck with non starchy vegetables. I limit 1-2 serves fruit a day. I eat lots of nuts and have to use meat to balance my bowel movements as eating liquid absorbing starches spikes blood glucose.
A1C is an average.
Get yourself a continuous glucose monitor. See what your "healthy" plant based diet is doing and use the readings as a guide, not your doctor/nutritionist/dietician.
I'm interested in eating more plant but trial and error that doesn't work will destroy the body.
Try the Carnivore or Keto diets.

Hazel, I am a diet controlled diabetic. The endocrinologist feels I am on too many medications for other conditions. I am on a very low carbohydrate diet, such as no potatoes (sweet potatoes OK), no rice, even brown rice, etc. I eat fish or skinless chicken about the size of a deck of cards once every 2 weeks.
@@monicaperez2843 If your glucose readings are high, then you are not "controlling" with diet. You are being controlled with what you can eat and it's not working.
Are you normal weight for your height?
Do you have issues with your kidneys as the majority of type 2 diabetes medications are contraindicated.
If what you are doing currently is causing eye and other issues discuss insulin with your doctor.
I'm on insulin but try to keep the dose smaller by avoiding carbohydrates and no sugar. This means potatoes, beans and legumes etc are off the menu unless I up my dose (which is not recommended - the professionals like to control your insulin). Insulin does increase the possibility of weight gain.
Going on insulin made me feel better which is what counts in life. It's used as a last resort, but I pestered my doctor until I got the stuff that made me feel better. I never suggested what, but went through the plethora of available drugs (this was before injectables were apparently available).
Just don't give in to your professionals as insulin is usually a last resort when nothing else works and you are too sick for glucose reducing medications. But you need to show proof of your continuous readings otherwise your A1C contraindicates as your reading is in the safe range.
Get a continuous glucose monitor, they are not cheap but will tell the story and support you in getting better health care and a more fun/appropriate diet aligned with your plant based approach.
Vegan and vegetarian are high sugar diets. Carnivore is the safest way to eat. Steve Jobbs was a vegan and died of pancreatic cancer. High sugar diets destroy the pancreas
Thats like exactly how I feel if I stop drinking.
Alcohol is a sugar that your body processes exactly as if it is white sugar. Would you drink a glass of white sugar?
no ud gargle salt and baking soda. @@silencedogood7297
Some people develope tumors on there pancreas which help put out more insulin called insulinoma. When i eat too many complex carbs i go abit hypo.
So can D2 be reversed?
Yes! Just cut out the crap..
Ahh the little tiny bit of candy bar won't hurt... Ruthlessly cut out carbohydrate especially the simple one. This one only discuss of what diabetes does to the body, go and see what sugar does to the rest with dental, mental, vision and so on. Whole food and exercise.
Ever been to Asia? They live on carbs. Rice and noodles. There is no diabetes or obesity epidemic there.
@@retribution999exactly, it's more about what the western world is injecting in foods
@@retribution999 I was born in Vietnam 30 years ago. Phở bò and bún chả are my favorite dishes, so yes if you've ever visited Vietnam i would recommend to try them out (the real deal, not Americanized one).
Back to the topic:
Obesity can lead to diabetes, but Skinny can also lead to diabetes. For a while my BMI was in optimal despite how much rice, potatoes chip, ice cream i ate because i have *very high metabolism* . There are two type of carbs: Rice would fit into complex carb, my previous comment strongly against simple carbs.
However, i was admitted to ER 7 years ago and i start looking into health more. Bloodwork is important, my LDL was elevated as well as triglyceride, resting HR was in the 60 since i was still physically active. Now my resting HR is 43 and VO2Max is 56 according to my garmin, lipid chart is normal, blood pressure 116/76.
I would encourage people to really look into their health and get check up often. Covid-19 was an alarm bell to wake people up of their unhealthy diet and sedentary lifestyle.
@@retribution999 According to the National Institute of Health (NIH) regarding world trends (pub. June 2012), “Asian countries contribute to more than 60% of the world's diabetic population as the prevalence of diabetes is increasing in these countries.”
@@ktate2002 worth investigating for sure. But they also eat a lot of raw cabbage and herbs with meals in Thailand and Indonesia which has undoubted benefits
What you eat is a personal choice.
It’s a constitutional right in the land of the free. Right? 😂
What you eat is a social economic choice.
What about genetic diabetes?
New on there's to learn more a about It's science,
Diabetes is technically a series of rare urological disorders, diabetes melitus being one of them
i woke up early this morning because my g-7 was yelling at me trying to tell me something!! i was having a very high reading again and this time it was extrememe! i tried takining my insuling early and of course that that takes a while, so it hasn’t worked yet, so i took humulog a my bs onlny whent up higher!! i’m re afraid! i took my oral meds early without food and hope that works! if it doesn’t change, i’m going to urgent care! i’m so afriaid of getting ketoacidocis again i had that about 11 years ago anwas in a coma and almost died.
i’m always afraid of it! i hate diabetes! i’ve almost died because of it! i just looked at my g-7 receiver and its only gone down 3 points. i’m havingmy granddaughter take me to the urgent care. im not waiting any longer. i may be paniking, but i want to know! i have to wake her up now
are you okay now?
nah man I'm exercising from tomorrow
Hito Hito no mi..
Is increase in cholesterol lead to diabetes
No, cholesterol has nothing to do with insulin resistance
I think they’re referring to metabolic syndrome. High blood pressure and high cholesterol may catalyze diabetes. It then becomes a vicious circle with these three feeding off of each other.
yea. i am watchin it while eatin a choclate
There is a misinformation I think in 1:01 because the liver does NOT need insulin for glucose intake, just like intestine, kidneys, and the brain.
Well, that was kinda depressing.
It's why you need to eat flaxseed in EVER meal!
Flax seeds make you fart like a cannon going off. You might lose your job 😂
@@JohnSmith-xx9th I've been eating them for several years; never experienced gas!
I think I might be pre, not quite, almost, just about, right before diabetic
Didn't this video miss critical information about Type-1 diabetes, which is caused by an attack of the immune system on pancreas.
❤👍👍👍❤
I have decided to let my blood sugar go up to 500+ because the insulin caused me to gain 55 pounds in 6 months and eat all the time. Insulin is the worst drug there is. We all die someday. video was informative.
Try carnivore
I’m type one. Insulin is the only reason I’m still alive. Stop using insulin & focus on the root of the problem: Control your appetite. You probably have a hormone or vitamin deficiency that needs addressed, not saying it’s a conscious choice. Take my advice.
Insulin didn't cause your weight gain. Eating the wrong foods and not exercising cause weight gain.
Insulin does and did cause my weight gain. it made me hungry for 24 hours a day. You are right though, diet and exercise is the key. I stopped the insulin and am loosing weight but sugar is high. Oh well, that's life, at least I can function now.
Good lord.. all of these by just eating too much..!
My dad passed away in 2021😭😭😭 cause of death: type 2 diabetes 😭
Keto helps
🧠 informative
What about type one diabetes? It’s caused by a virus and is incurable. Commonly starts at puberty
Type 1 diabetes about to end my whole career. Had it since I was a young child.
I'm so sorry.
I'm also T1. It is infuriating when people try to tell my how I can "cure my sugar diabetes" or I can get off insulin and now have T2 if I just adjust my diet. Nope. I tell people it is like getting an arm cut off in an accident. No amount of adjusting your diet will grow you a new arm. My beta cell in my pancreas have been dead nearly 40 years. They aren't coming back. And even if they did, my immune system would destroy them just like it did 40 years ago.
Now we have Artificial Voices acting on the behalf of a 'feeling' human being - sad

I got this video recommended while eating a big cake.
Oh yes! 😅
Milk 🥛
Is full of sugar. It is not a healthy option.

😮😮😮
I am and class right now and catch up on health and all health
This needs to be labled type 1 diabetes.
❤
It shocks me that Americans prefer diabetes to eating a fully balanced diet in most cases. You only get 1 body 😅
I have been traveling the wrong direction on that road.
We gotta learn a mantra about our bodies like, "why destroy it when you can enjoy it"
Americans don't even have the highest rates of diabetes globally - by a lot
Heller...diabetes is on the rise all over the world not just the USA
Sigh. It's a global epidemic. Do some reading.
So you don't have to save money for when you are old.
Well that just sux
