I had acanthosis nigricans all over my face, neck, back, shoulders and sides of my arms for 20 years before I found out what it was. I was poor and NO ONE ever asked or gave advice; doctors and otherwise. People made fun though. "take off that mask, Halloween's over" or "you should stop doing drugs." It kinda still hurts. Early on, I thought it was sunburn, as it grew darker in contrast to my normal complexion, my social life got worse. My eyes began to darken and I thought I had cancer or something.
Let me support what Dr. Dray stated and has discussed previously; It was insulin resistance all along. Your skin is the largest organ on your body. When your insulin is consistently high like mine was (biscuit for breakfast, subway for lunch, pizza for dinner and soda with each), insulin became a poison and I believe it began to leech out of my skin in creased and weight-impacted areas (sitting and lying down).
Here's how I cleared it up starting back in 2019:
First, face it, some "foods" aren't foods. If you think a cupcake is food, stop eating them because they aren't. They cause a deficit in your body's structural nutrients. They cost too much to break down and the energy the yield is too short lived. That's why you crave more.
Next, I got my blood sugar down in three weeks without exercise (I couldn't, my knees and shoulders were so inflamed I thought I had arthritis) by not consuming added sugar of any kind; no cookies, no cakes, no soda pop and no snacking.
I refused to take insulin when it was prescribed (They called me prediabetic) because I believed that Diabetes was a disease of excess insulin so how could cramming more insulin help me (I thought; it's good to think for yourself)? Instead, I ate 1.5 meals a day between 1100 and 1600. I drank water and unsweetened tea along with a cocktail of vitamins by 1830 (Vitamin D and Zinc specifically). I forced myself to sleep by buying blackout curtains and turning off my tv by 2100.
Where I didn't have AN, I had strawberry or chicken skin. I bathed in 2 cups of ACV in a full bath and rubbed my wet skin (sloughing) with hypochlorous spray before drying off. The dead skin and gunk I rubbed off after bathing surprised me. That practice 3 times a week along with a rosemary/castor oil rubdown unblocked my pores; chicken skin dead after six months! The sloughing increased blood flow too.
AN cleared up everywhere after 19 months except for my face, but it's noticeably lighter. My testosterone went up too. What made me check is that my leg hair and arm hair began to grow and I lost less hair after combing my head hair. After noticing these changes (six months in), I asked for a test at my doctor's office and took another three months after. Remember, it took 20 years of this damage, it will not go away overnight.
In conclusion, I know this seems a bit personal. However, if anyone is still reading this it's likely a serious concern, problem or stigma. Yes, it happened to me and by visiting channels like this one (thank you DD) I learned enough to manage it on my own. I came from humble beginnings and couldn't afford to go to a dermatologist early in life. Today, I'm much better off and I'd like to help others via posts like this. DD is right. This is a great video and you'd be surprised, but all you need is this information (knowledge) and a little discipline, and you can heal yourself. It costs nothing to eat less and on a schedule. Don't drink water after 1830. The ultimate benefit is that it wasn't just my skin that cleared up. My shoulder and knee pain went away because the joint inflammation receded due to my diet. My kidneys healed and my liver function returned to normal. My regularity returned (you might have to restrict dairy) and so did my energy. As I write this, I feel as alone as when I dealt with all of the abuse, but my life is so much better I can take care of myself and I have my spirit back. You can too! Don't eat sugar for a week or two and you won't believe what your body will begin signaling to you! Good luck, I wish you a better journey than mine, but you have to start right now. No one can do it but you.
In awe of how you have changed your life and send love and thanks for your story.
Amazing 👏, keep up the good work
@@terizaragosa3303 Thank you, you're very kind.

Are you on insulin and how much?
She works so hard to post such informative content. Seriously the most consistent, thorough & credible/legitimate skincare influencer out here. Thanks for all you do Dr Dray
Thanks for watching
You just convinced me to follow and also I am a diabetic
@@oldyeller6518 10 months later…really? I said what I meant and I meant what I said. You don’t have to agree. Don’t you have anything more valuable to do besides trying to dictate what other people can like about a content creator? 😂
@@oldyeller6518 Is English your second language or something or do you not understand how we use seriously to emphasize a statement, not literally 😂 But no worries, I’m laughing at your dumb ass too. Glad we can both share this mutual comedy club.
I couldn't have said it better.
Everyone who is pre-diabetic and refusing to believe it is serious should watch this video.
Damage is being done to the body at that stage too.
I have diabetes 2 and have been on keto for 5 yrs. I wake up and walk/jog/run 2-3 miles 5 times a week to have my A1C under control. This video really inspired me to keep up the good work. Sometimes I don’t want to exercise or get moving but Diabetes 2 is a constant condition. Hard work pays off, medication always has side effects. Loved this video, it’s keeping me motivated.
I got diagnosed with T2D last year in Nov./Dec. And I’m still struggling with how to control deal with this condition.. I just noticed that I started to get a lot of skin tags around my neck and it’s so embarrassing…. When I have cuts they take forever to heal …. I’m having difficulty getting it under control …
Audrianne53, trying to keep walking, running several miles five or even three times a week is hard for me (my A1C is prediabetic) so your hard work is commendable and inspirational. Like you say that sometimes you don't want to exercise or want to get moving and for me that is a big challenge.
Good for you, same here.
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you for the info. God bless you. 😊
My husband has had diabetes for many years and has diabetic neuropathy and many of these skin conditions. One that I did not realize was part of his diabetes are the occasional blisters he gets. We have even visited doctors about them, but were never told that it was from his diabetes. I learned something! This is a very important message - skin care for a diabetic is so critical and can be very difficult.
thanks for watching
If type 2, check out beat diabetes on UA-cam.

If he takes Metformin, I’ve read that people should also take B vitamins as diabetic neuropathy could be related to vitamin B deficiency. Of course, please check with Doctor as I am not an expert
Businesses should be made to include information booklets about diabetes, explaining it fully, with every product that contains high sugar/carbohydrates. People really are unaware of just how insidious and deadly diabetes is. Its only when they get sick and a diagnosis that they are made aware of just how damaging sugar is. In school you're just told to brush your teeth, I think the education surrounding sugar should go alot deeper than that. Doctors need to explain the severity, aswell as directing people to change diet along with medication.
"It's a serious disease and I do not wish it on anyone" Absolutely TRUE. What I see, again and again, is the fact that, probably because it's so common, that diabetes is being perceived "no big deal". IT IS a huge deal. Thanks for a very interesting, very informative video. I didn't know diabetes affected the skin to such an extent.
my doctor calls it "silent death".
I’m one of those idiots who thought it wasn’t a big deal. A couple of years ago my blood work showed pre-diabetic and didn’t do anything. I was already struggling with severe depression, anxiety, chronic pain and low mobility. I was overweight and gained more. I can barely stand and walk, live alone, can’t cook and have no one to depend on. A couple of years later, I had my blood work done 3 days ago. To no surprise it shows I’m type 1 diabetic and issues with my heart. I’m seeing my doctor in a week, now that will be an interesting appointment. I already can’t deal with any stress, so I really don’t how I’m going to survive this! 🙏🏻
Diesnt bother me one iota take metformin no problems
Worst things than diabetics
@@ceha9517your dr is stupidv
Do you have Diabetes
Diabetes is no joke. My husband passed away from complications of diabetes at the young age of 52 . He endured shots in his eye balls once a month, laser treatments to his retinas, kidney failure, dialysis, foot ulcer, below the knee amputation,. Diabetes sucks. Thanks for the video though! Very informative and interesting stuff. Kind of a cool deviation from your normal videos which I love!
i am sorry you lost your husband

Wow that is heartbreaking!! All 4 grandparents had it before dying from the complications and all 4 parents/in laws have some degree of it also. We hate to see the damage our lifestyle ends up doing to us in the end, but very thankful it's also preventable and reversible! That gives me hope
So sorry for your loss. Lost most of my relatives because of diabetes. Always watch your glucose level.
Did he have type 1 or 2
You should re-post this video every 6 months or so. With the diabestes epidemic affecting not only the US but the world, the more info out there the better. Also mentioning limiting carbohydrates of all kinds ( not just "sugar") as you often do in other videos is also SO important. Thank you for this. You are truly a gem in educating us all...
You should not scare people
My last A1C result showed me down, to the breaking point, but I am still pre diabetic. You have given me some very helpful information, as well as additional incentive to work at preventing diabetes. Thank you so much! Every day I make choices, and now I will be thinking about my skin, too.
Check out DrKenDBerryMD’s channel.
Ever since the covid pandemic, I've noticed everyone (myself included) have gained significant weight. I worry about the high prevalence of obesity in America, and its links to diabetes. Fantastic video!
Assalaam Alaikum everyone. Have a blessed day and please don’t stress if you’re going through anything. Life’s hard but we are’s till here and this is a blessing. I will pray for everyone here and please keep pushing forward. Sending love and prayers your way lovelies. Thank everyone for your sweet messages yesterday. Love you all. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I knew diabetes could affect the skin but didn't realize the many ways this could happen. I've had several family members with diabetes. Thanks so much for this important and educational video. Happy Tuesday, Dr Dray! Hope you have a wonderful evening. 💜
For anyone who hesitates getting the A1c, I urge you to do it. I was diagnosed after apparently being diabetic for a long time. It was too late for me; I have severe pancreatic atrophy and liver cirrhosis. I don't drink. They say my diabetes is killing my liver and it's irreversible. Don't put it off, get that test now and if you're diabetic follow your regimen extremely carefully so you have a long life.
Look into natural remedies for reversing your liver cirrhosis. Check with a naturopathic doctor. Best of luck.🙏🏼
Thank you for this information. My husband has diabetes and you are so right to advise everyone to take this very seriously. It is a horrible disease.
This is so important and such a great video! It’s estimated over 10% of the country is unaware they are diabetic that’s over 30 million people! Your awesome Andrea! Thanks! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Greetings U. Charlie hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜….

I’m a well managed diabetic with a 5.7 A1C and this video scared the living daylights out of me!! Thanks Dr. Dray for keeping it real and keeping us informed. Got to go work out some more!!! 😬😬😬
how do you manage your diabetes?

THANKS FOR THE UPDATE ❤
I'm a diabetic but I don't have any of these things. When I was diagnosed I went to work and changed everything. The only thing I have is dry skin which I have found the kopari body butter works wonderful. Thank you for this video.
use coconut oil every day,,,,,,,
Thank you, this was all the motivation I needed.
THANK YOU SO MUCH Dr. GRAY
That was a bit of a blast. Admired her knowledge, but that's about it.
Happy Tuesday Dr. Dray! I cannot thank you enough for this video. Diabetes is horrible disease that requires so much care as it affects every organ (skin being the largest) of the body. My mother in love was a type one diabetic that lost her battle with the disease. My oldest son is a Chef and he developed type 2 diabetes that almost took his life. As he stated his very livelihood can kill him. He’s fine now and still loves to cook. But now he knows what he can and cannot eat. Our family now guard our health and eating habits very carefully! Please listen to everything Dr. Dray has outlined in this video! Do whatever it takes because that’s what diabetes will do…take your quality of life! Be blessed and be well Dr. Dray!
Why don't doctors tell us these things. Thank you Doctor.
Because not all doctors are Dermatologists. lol
See Dr Tony Hampton and Dr.Ken Berry

Thank you Dr dray. I was told a few months ago that I needed to lose weight because I could become diabetic and this just motivated me to get healthy faster because dealing with skin conditions and insulin problems is not fun 😔. This was a wake up call 👍
Thank you for making this video. It was exactly what I needed to hear to get my butt in gear. Have a blessed day!❤

This was very eye-opening. Thank you very much for such a well-researched and presented video.
Thannkk youuu! T1D here, and I found this INCREDIBLY valuable, because it helps me know what to look out for as I age. I'm a fairly well managed diabetic as of now, but I haven't always been, and luckily haven't experienced any of these skin conditions yet. Been watching your channel for just over a year now, and you always seem to have something new and valuable for me!
Very informative and interesting. Thank you.
You're amazing . very informative and helpful.god bless you.
Superb
Dr. Dray you are a wonderful person who has helped countless others. For all you do, we all wish you peace and joy!☺️
Great, very informative video.
I’m in my second year of treating my diabetes and I wasn’t aware of most of this; so glad I know now and can use as prevention. Thanks!
As always a fountain of information. ,so wonderful ,easy to understand , thank you so much for all you do .Love your channel❤
Very valuable information ❤Thanks Doctor😊
amazing video! I am an RT student and for clinical rotations im in the subacute where I noticed some of these findings. The candida and the oral yeast infectionsin the trached patients is very common and was refreshing to here that most of these findings come from diabetes. We mostly have been focusing on respiratory studies of course, but we only occasionaly touch on other issues in the body. It all effects every area in the end! Thanks for the medical class for diabetes 101 :)
Dr gray the best best best 🙏
Oh dear yor informations is great, will save so many lives they have no ideas about all this signs of diabetes disease. Blessed your time.
Thank you for sharing your Wisdom. Very Informative. 🙏
