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.

@@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 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.

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.

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.

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 🤞

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Great video! The science is simple - T2D is a disease of too much glucose in the blood over an extended period of time. So if you keep the bloodstream away from glucose, you will be fine. Chronic excessive carbohydrate consumption is the #1 cause of insulin resistance, which eventually leads to T2D if not controlled. The body does require glucose, but we do not have to ingest it from our mouths. The liver is able to make as much glucose as your body needs all on its own without your help, through a process known as gluconeogenesis. So you will not die from NOT consuming any exogenous carbohydrates. Fat and protein, on the other hand, are nutrients that you HAVE TO consume exogenously, because the body is unable to synthesize those internally.

You're not representing the actual issue of Type 2 Diabetes. Type 2 Diabetes happens when someone consumes so much sugar and glucose that the body essentially becomes blown out to it's own insulin reception. It's like dopamine receptors in the brain, the more dopamine there is in saturation, the more and more dopamine it takes to receive a "kick" of arousal (which is why internet addiction is so killer right now is because brains have now been elevated to a state of receiving constant stimulus and being in a state of saturation, requiring heavier substance for the plateau of dopamine to achieve arousal). If you constantly eat sugary foods, constantly intake sugar, constantly eat sweets and foods with added sugar your body will react to this just like everything else. Firstly, you gain a ton of weight even if you try to burn it off because sugar is generally sent to storage over everything else (and the paradoxical way the body burns reserves by burning new over old constantly). Secondly, your pancreas begins to excrete higher and higher levels of insulin. This is also what causes the sugar rush and sugar crash. The crash is when your body is producing insulin at high levels when the blood glucose levels have been depleted. The other issue is due to the constant saturation of insulin, the cells become more and more tolerant of insulin because insulin (as you mentioned) is a hormone. The body treats new highs and new plateaus as a 'constant' rather than something 'variable' in other words. When the cells become more and more insulin resistant it means they reject the localized and normalized signals of "eat the sugar" as sent by insulin. This, in turn, will eventually cause these cells to become more and more insulin resistant to the point that the pancreas physically cannot make enough insulin to tell the cells to effectively eat! People EAT THEMSELVES into Type 2 Diabetes! The SUGAR that has become so ultimately saturated in our food is the cause!! Why don't you specifically mention this?

I think I responded to you other post, but sugar is not the direct cause, although a high sugar diet is correlated with an increased risk. It is always good to limit refined sugars, but as I mentioned in your other post, someone who utilizes those carbohydrates through exercise/activity is not going to have those carbohydrates stored as fat.

But the mechanism u explained is linked with obesity, essentially having adipose stores which secrete the cytokine storm causing decreased sensitivity in the first place. What u r saying is essentially what he said, he just explained 3-4 steps to getting there which u skipped. If u quit sugar n have 5000 kcal worth of fat or protein and arent using it (in short caloric surplus), the extra still will be converted to adipose tissue causing u eventually insulin insensitivity.

Also sugar isn't directly sent to storage, storage receptors (GLUT 4 receptor) don't start till 180-200 mg sugar per ml blood. GLUT 2 receptors on most cells start utilising sugar at very low levels. Your body works on glucose until u starve urself of carbs n go on ketones as main source. Brain exclusively works on glucose, literally uses 50% of it n most cells too. So storage only occurs after meals which increases blood sugar level n as those levels drop, it stops storing it. N is later used to maintain glucose levels when u r not eating food

Thanks for this. I am a type 2 diabetic, 58. Had limited succes with more exercise (late afternoon seems most efficient), more with switching from high fat low carb diet to 95% vegan (Dr Neal Barnard’s advice to get rid of adapose tissue and get fat out of cells so sugar can come in) and arguably most from going from 3 meals a day to 8-16 hour intermittent fasting (a la dr Jason Fung). I assume there are several reasons why cells may be reluctant to follow the insulin’s instructions to take up sugar besides adapose tissue and unfixable genetics. Where can I find more info on that, so I can figure out what else to try?

You can try walking 5-6 km after your meal, most effective 20 mins after to mitigate the blood glucose spike. I think there must be some kind of carbs restriction even if you are on vegan diet to be successful in blood glucose control.

Every T1D & T2D here NEEDS to get a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM). It gives much more info than a periodic finger stick. It helps to establish patterns. Currently, I'm a low-level T2D and realized there's about a dozen risky foods out there to avoid. My A1C a year ago was 7.2. Now, I'm below 6.0 by just eliminating those bad foods. They included dried fruit, any liquids other than water, energy bars, bread, white rice & pastas.

I'm type 1, I was diagnosed at 19 but they'd suspected it since I was 13. People have told me repeatedly I could cure my diabetes with diet not understand type 1 is insulin dependent. What I find interesting is I can still get type 2 diabetes insulin resistance whilst being type 1 with not watching my diet or exercise. Having a good diet & exercise routine helps you body know how to break down what it needs. Everything is more sluggish if movement & nutrition isn't consistent. The human body is fascinating.

Type 1 and 2 are so different in personal experience, treatment and lifestyle. As a T1 person, I get frustrated a lot by how often these 2 conditions are confused by regular people. Type 1 people are in minority, so we have to deal with a lot of unwanted and usually useless advices and treatment from people that don't know what they're talking about. It is even more frustrating that these people usually just want to show that they care and want to be helpful, but they are just sooooo missing the point. Most of them only know type 2 and when they hear 'diabetes' they think of their 70 year old uncle, even though my condition and his condition are two different worlds. Personally I used to try to educate my family and friends, but eventually just decided to avoid the topic, so I can save nerves. Thank you for making educational videos, the more people will see them, the closer we get to breaking the stigma. I just wish type that type 1 and 2 were called with different names, so they don't get confused so often.

Like you can't cure it, but you can certainly do a lot with diet to help your poor little pancreas friend out. In my case I really had to lower my fat intake. I really don't seem to make enough enzymes to break it down.

I have a question - insulin binds to the cells which utilize glucose (which is pretty much all the cells), does this mean that a molecule of insulin is present for pretty much every single cell in the body? When insulin is secreted, does the number of insulin molecules equal the number of cells in the body??
