      Finally the answer is right in front of us.
      The MD's have not been curing us. They need to get this right and educate and train patients on how and what to eat. Send a whole food plant dietitian to your home and teach you how to shop and prepare meals. Way less expensive and cure people.
      The current medical industry on chronic illnesses is a joke. They are just pumping us with foreign chemicals and not curing us.

    I am a super fan! I started listening to this podcast about 7 months ago, thinking it was just a healthy eating podcast. But within a few weeks, I started really eating plant focused and soon swore off all meat! I’ve never felt better in my life. I have had type one diabetes for 30 years and have had OK control. But once I went vegetarian, my blood sugars became so stable I thought I found the cure for diabetes! For a few days, I wasn’t even taking insulin for my meals-I didn’t know what was happening. But then this series on type 1 diabetes and Plant based eating made everything make sense, and validated me. Thank you so much for this podcast! It literally has changed my life. And my boyfriend, who has always said “pork runs through my blood, I’m from North Carolina” has embraced this lifestyle and says his digestion has never been better. I’m sold on plant based! I can’t wait to get my next blood panel… lol

    Like this site. Just found it. Been doing WFPB since last summer. I’m slowly 🙁 losing wt. but the labs must be getting better and better! Enjoying the process. Because there is a mental clarity I didn’t expect. The big black dog of depression as stated by Abe Lincoln and Winston Churchill, has morphed into a little Black and white Boston terrier with a smiling face! I’m nearly 70. Dieted yo-yo since pre puberty. Was never slender but not obese in my youth. It did finally happen. Doc said to take these meds or I won’t need to worry about retirement. The lipid panel was that bad. I was a pre diabetic animated stick of butter with hair on top. I said “No” to the drugs. I’m an old RN. I knew the answer wasn’t in pharmaceuticals. I was raised SDA by my momma, (not dad), but carnivorous. I knew the other side of that coin though, it didn’t take much research to hook well into it with the help of Utube, and probably God. I cannot believe how this way of eating has been so satisfying I don’t even desire all the SAD foods I was addicted to. Still learning. And loving it.

    Great information on oatmeal types. For past few months I've been eating old fashioned rolled oats, and reason is because of videos and articles by particular doctors, all of whom say they eat the rolled oats. I'm speaking of Dr. Esselstyn, and Dr. McDougall in particular. Also Rip Esselstyn who has the youtube channel Plant Strong. Finally, I watched a video or maybe it was an article in which blood glucose responses between steel cut oats, rolled oats, one minute, and instant were tested. The steel cut and rolled were pretty close; the steel cut was best but only by a hair. Both the steel cut and rolled were significantly better than the one minute and instant types. And of course the convenience of cooking rolled for just 3 minutes in microwave plays big factor too in my decision.

    What I'm really l with this and I just started watching it is how he differentiates between complex carbohydrates and the simple refined foods that people know as carbohydrates, The sugar and white flour and all of that. Most people in fact are completely unaware of what a whole grain is, for example, how many people eat millet in this country? It's used as bird seed lol. Same for kasha, barley, whole oat groats instead of rolled oats. It makes a huge difference and I'm really happy to see him making that initial differentiation. I think it's an important one.

    I lost weight following The Mayo Clinic Diabetic Diet book written by Paul D. Hensrud and have kept most of it off due to mostly following this diet. This diet recommends whole grains and to avoid refined processed carbs as Cyrus advised to do. I tried following Cyrus's diet recommended in Reversing Diabetes and I did not lose any significant weight. I had to measure my portions of food as advised in the Mayo Clinic Diabetic Diet while primarily following a whole food plant based diet to lose weight. Found Cyrus book before finding Mayo Clinic Diabetic Diet book and have Cyrus to thank for convincing me how dangerous the keto diet is to follow as eating all the fat recommended in this diet just increases insulin resistance.

    • @michelep.7249
      @michelep.7249 Рік тому +1

      Fat increases insulin resistance, because if you eat a lot of fat the cells just take it in and don't want carbs as they already have fat for energy. If your cells took in a lot of fat for energy, they resist insulin as they don't want any more energy from carbs. Eating a lot of fatty foods can increase spikes in blood sugar if eating both fatty foods and carbs together as the cells will take in fat easily and the carbs will have a harder time getting into the cell due to insulin resistance caused by all the fatty foods one ate.

    When eating chia, flax, nuts or seeds: As well as keeping amounts relatively small, is it best to eat in isolation & to wait 2 or 3 hours before resuming the high carb foods? Chia, nuts & seeds are fine this way but flax is more tricky because most like to add to oats. Is this actually necessary or not?

      @@hobbyfarmer1452 I think you misunderstood what Dr. McDugall. From what I understand it is heavy on starch and complex carbohydrates and no oil. He has had thousands of patients reverse chronic diseases. In that context in one of his episodes he mentioned something on sugar and refined grains compared to fat. But if I remember correctly that was just a comparison. What Dr Cyrus is saying is similar to what Dr McDougall also states broadly speaking.

    I was a farmer’s daughter and everything we ate was fresh. When I was i never heard about diabetes. Now I am here in the UNITED STATES, I am 84 yo and I have diabetes. When i was growing up we never have fried food or using oil or never eating processed food. My father also refused to used industrial fertilizer demanded by our government. We ate grilled pork on Wednesday & meat on Saturday, the rest of the week were grilled small fish or fish stew with a lot of vegetable, & of rice. We never ate cookies.candies,bread or drink soda. Only during Christmas we can have limited cookies, candies, walnuts, apples (From U S ) . We have sugar cane field . My dad sells the 3 kinds of sugar and let us children use molasses. The diesel of sugar. Using cooking is nil in our family. My dad when eating fried food orb food sautéed in oil had stomach ache and vomiting. But I won’t use industrial fertilizer in my farms. It’s the root of all illnesses. My grandpa died at 104 yo with out seeing a doctor, dad and 2 brothers died at 87 years old. Good eating is important to us

      Sweet potatoes in moderation ie a one inch piece with peep baked. The great thing zbout sweet potatoe is there is something in addtion to high vitamin Content that reduce pain. And inflamation. So if you're taking insulin. Or going for your A1C bloids or need to go i to hopital for any reason it minimises the pain of hzving a line put in of having blood taken. Also minimises post operative pain. In my experience. Try feedjng it to banies before their immunisations.

    I love taking "carbophobes" to coronometer and showing them that all those "low-carb" foods (e.g. cabbage, kale, peppers, green beans) are actually approximately 3/4 carbohydrate by dry weight (the solid part, i.e. the veg without all the water).

    Should distinguish between sweet corn, which is harvested while the grain is immature and hydrated on the plant, and cornmeal, which is allowed to dehydrate in the field prior to harvest, and most often sold refined with the germ and much of the fiber removed.
    When buying cornmeal, look for *stone ground* cornmeal, which includes the germ of the grain.

    Cyrus, what does 30g of fat look like on a person’s plate eating for the day? Please describe, otherwise this is just a number that I can’t relate to! And does the 2 tbsp of ground flaxseeds take up most of that 30g, or is that separate? I’d love to know a day in a life of your eating. How do you eat 700+ carbohydrate units and still be under 30g of the fat each day? Waiting to here from you, and apologised if this question has been answered already. I really need to read your book, this is fascinating. xx

    Finally a physician with the the best interest and facts for its patients. I had my physical several months ago, and was told by my doctor that I am pre-diabetic, and his answer was for me to start taking medication to control my blood glucose!? I am not a health expert but I didn't like his uneducated advise; so I fired him. I admit to have a sweet tooth for refined sugar based foods every once in a while, specially around the holidays; but I also have had a very well balanced highly nutritious diet all my life. The blood glucose results was a wake up call to say the least; so I stopped cold the consumption of refined sugar/carbohydrate based foods; even the complex carbohydrates based foods, because everywhere on the internet, friends with diabetes, and physicians advised that complex carbohydrates will raise your blood sugar just as bad as refined carbohydrates! Personally when my blood sugar fall below 88 I feel extremely weak, and have no energy at all. My ideal blood glucose level is between 90 and 97; I generally feel much healthier and full of energy. For weeks I have being battling with which is my ideal blood sugar level? this video however answered my suspicions, thank you!
