Type 2 Diabetes
This 62 year old male listened to a podcast that featured Dr Ashvy talking about gluten; where she mentioned how high the glycaemic index of bread was and its subsequent effect on blood suagrs. He contacted her and for the first time in his 20 years of being diabetic, he felt hope that he could come off medications. He also had the ‘triad’ of metabolic issues of high blood pressure and cholesterol. His Hba1c when he met her was not terrible at 62 and his other medical problems were also being reated with meds.
Dr Ashvy introduced him to the concept of fasting and explained what the different food groups provided and how to get the most nutrients from food. He had never been explained about food in so much detail, and dr Ashvy wanted to educate rather than just prescribe an eating plan. Armed with this lifestyle prescription, the patient reversed his diabetes within 6 months and also came off his blood pressure and cholesterol pills.
