My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
They still don't know what causes type 1. There is a theory that a virus lodged in the pancreas. I believe, like type 2, that diet is a major component, and especially vitamin D deficiency. My daughter did not eat healthy. I would make a huge Thanksgiving dinner & she would eat three rolls. She only wanted junk food.
Now I’m totally confused. I wish someone would come out with a sample diet. So tired of all the mixed messages and no help from my doctors. Every time I research the subject, the sides switch as what I should be eating and what I should be avoiding.
Amen!!! I feel same. My dr. Say some fruits has more natural sugar then others. Watch ur portions only 1 cup fresh fruits a day. Watermelon has high sugar eat 1 slice. Watch ur carbs & sugar
I totally agree no one agrees. It is so confusing. One says the whole food plant based studies are wrong. The others say keto tests are wrong. Totally contradict each other. And my doctor is no help either. I asked my cardiologist and she didn't have q clue and nutritionists don't agree either.
Hon the Doctors finally admitted I was diabetic in 2002 when I had such a bad asthma attack at work, I was repeating my nurses instructions to hang up and call 911. LOL I WAS the H&S person that usually called 911. My BS's were 417 when they got there & 571 when I got to the ER Bed. I've gone thru 4 classes tons of online and individual "consults", spent an average of $7-8,000 a year looking for cures & miracles & now just follow food. All I can say is do not let your disease(s?) run your life. I found 1 doctor who said "You, are the only one within that body, so I need you to keep tabs on everything new, different, good & bad, & how your system reacts. Because I'm good at putting that together" I've had 4 like that in my lifetime. My Cardiologist is like that just wish my others were.
Respectfully i appreciate your kind gesture Dr igho, you have always been able to help with any of my health Issues, I didn't know how to Face the Stigma of living with Diabetes but I'm happy to say today that I'm glad to have you as my doctor because it just seems like magic.

I read the book 'REVERSING diabetes' by Dr. Neal Bernard over 20 years ago and this was the single source to get me off Diabetes medication. My A1c is currently around 5.6, I would highly recommend anyone with diabetes to read this book.
I love you guys so much! Chuck you are so awesome and I could listen to Dr Barnard all day every day and never get tired of it! Thank you for all you do!
In 2016, I was shocked and appalled that my A1C was 8.6 and at the same time was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. I immediately became obsessed with you tube videos with content from doctors like Dr Barnard. I immediately became vegan. This is extremely difficult in my household as my husband is an incredible professional chef. He prepares amazing and very unhealthy meals filled with butter, oils and meat! It was very difficult at times to resist his culinary art so I hopped on a plane and headed to the Optimum Health Institute in San Diego. I completely reversed my diabetes! I went from an 8.6 to a 4.4 A1C. Once I returned, I found a lWFPB Dr. He ordered that I get a biopsy of my thyroid. The result came back as 98% positive for cancer. I was in the hospital 4 days later to have my thyroid removed. But, the endocrinologist was also WFPB. He gave me several options before surgery. The option I chose was for him to remove the half with the lump, send it to frozen pathology while still on the operating table. It cam back NEGATIVE for cancer. He sewed me up and I got to keep the remaining part of my thyroid. My hormone levels were NORMAL!!!!Now its 2022. I have fallen off the wagon and I feel as though I gave my middle finger to my good fortune back then. Im ashamed to say that I started eating my husbands food in addition to not exercising etc. I just went to my doctor because i knew for certain something was wrong with me. I knew my diabetes was back! I just received my blood work and my A1C is 12.7!!!!!! I am disgusted with myself. Especially because I already have the education that prevents diabetes. Surprisingly enough, my hormone levels still remain in normal ranges!!!Now here I am again. Tail between my legs. Day 1. Thank you Dr Barnard for making this content so readily available. Ive done it before. I can do it again. ❤
@@sonflowerday thank you so much!!!! My A1C has dropped to an average of 8.0. I still have a ways to go but in 3 weeks, I dropped my levels 4.7 points!!!! Im motivated
@@Hopinforpeaceonearth from 12.7 to 8.0 in 3 weeks!! How did you do that? What all did you eat? How often?

I hope I can but I'm struggling for sure.

@@annejames890 I eat Ezekiel English Muffins mostly for breakfast with some english almond milk tea. And will add a banana and some grapes. Sometime I will get some white bread with some fiber and low sugar and no oil. I also make lentil curry (water, spices, onions and tomatoes) for lunch and dinner. Also I add lots of fruits, popaya, chickpeas (boiled with some added spices and some tamarind sauce). I also eat dates, apples, and try to add lots of fruits. I sometime add semi boiled spinich with some balsamic viniger.
What's confusing is that some on keto claim to get great lab numbers and believe to have lower inflammation which can lead to calcification of arteries.
I am 59 years old and no doctor has ever told me or my family about a healthier eating lifestyle. I'm going to my family doctor next week and you bet I'll ask them why. Great video. Much health and happiness to you! ❤❤❤
@@victoriabachmann-osin1946 apples are great if you are also reducing your fat intake like Dr Barnard suggests. I just spent money on some high priced tennis shoes. I think I will spend a little to read his reversing diabetes book and get rid of my pre diabetes. You have to know that pre-diabetes is just diabetes that has not been formally diagnosed yet. However the effects of diabetes are already beginning to happen without being called diabetes. We’ve got a nip this stuff in the bud and stop at well before it becomes truly diagnosable as diabetes. Don’t run from diabetes. Run toward normal blood sugars!
My dr was not thrilled when I told her. She still keeps prescribing me meds but I do not take them. I started to see her Aug 2022 my a1c was 12.9 and my last visit Sept 2023 my a1c is 7.9. I been following plant based whole foods to the best I can.
As always, thank you so much for this life saving information. You guys are amazing. I never understood diabetes until I listened to doctor Barnard explain it. As Einstein said, " if you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough ".
Thanks Dr Barnard for your platform on Diabetes. I have been with diabetes for 15yrs and using all the tablets prescribed by my doctor but I have never felt so good as I am doing now that I learnt to use the directions that I followed from your programme. This I have done only for a month now. I am going to visit my doctor this week and have a discussion with him. I am still using his medication however.Thank you Dr Barnard.
When We are born genetically are not attracted to Veggies like all other animals. You will need to be very informed on this Diet to take the Supplements to a complete healthy nutrition. Fatty Acids (Fats) and Amino Acids (Proteins) are essential for human. survival, Not Carbohydrates are essential. I have been doing Fasting for 3 years and Loving it. 😍
I checked out the video version of Dr. Barnard’s book for reversing diabetes, and I am loving my blood sugars. I have gone from out of control to very close to ideal very quickly. I was having blood sugars in the three and four hundreds to consistently under two hundred. I can’t wait to see more improvements! Thank you Dr. Barnard! God bless and stay veggie! 🥗✝️❤️
Congratulations! Can you please tell me this. Was your blood sugar three and four hundreds in the morning when you test it or all day? Thankyou in advance!
Thank you very much and God bless you both. Looking forward to further episodes. Most doctors dont tell us what to do to lower sugars and cholesterol so thank you very much.
This is so great! Wonderful information about diabetes. There is so much of it in my relatives on both sides of the family that I have been really concerned. Thank you for the answers to so many of my questions. I am about 95 - 98% vegan at this point and still working on it.
yea.. but the rest of your family is NOT going to be able to go on a Vegan diet! Vegan is a diet of calorie deprivation in disguise and why it REALLY works. (hint...loosing weight). plenty of better diets that are realistic.
I can vouch that when I went on a coconut oil binge for a while a few years ago, my cholesterol jumped A LOT despite being vegan. It came back down when I quit coconut oil.
I think the person that wrote in about intermittent fasting meant was compressing your consumption of food into something like a 6 hour time window, only eating between 12 noon and 6 pm. Delaying breakfast and not eating after dinner. Can you ask Dr B about this? Thanks
I respectfully would just like to say, that there’s a lot well researched information available regarding diabetes & insulin resistance & diabetes reversal, that allows for meat & dairy (providing you have no allergies) which cautions against excessive fructose found in fruit. I agree it can get confusing with too many different viewpoints, but it's so important to find what really works regarding diabetes intervention. It’s well worth investing time in some comparative presentations/research.
The science all points to animal protein consumption being at the forefront of illness and disease. It’s really a matter of accepting the truth so that we can find health and healing.
Respectfully I have tried many of the diets recommended for diabetes and the only one that has worked well for me is a plant based diet my diabetic condition has improved on plant based diet and not on the others
Thank you so much for doing all this research. I am older, and have lost 80 lbs, but it's been some time. I'm back on a losing plan, and don't want to go back, so thank you for talking about not eating fatty vegs, (nuts, seeds, avocado) I'm finally not eating these plus avoid flour products. It's been such a struggle for me, but was testing high for blood sugar a few years ago, in spite of knowing about and saying that I was following the wfpb no oil eating plan. I also avoid salt. For those of us who have been close to the edge, Thank you, Dr. Barnard. I'm losing weight again, and getting the best nutrition possible.
Over 20 years ago I was diagnosed diabetic 2, these doctor prescribed the usual Metformin and Crestor for the cholesterol, I study the side effects of these drugs and decided not to take any conventional drugs. I started on my own to select and eat low glycemic food, plenty of exercise and have peace of mind by doing some spiritual exercises. All this time rejecting doctor prescribed drugs from other doctors. Over a year ago my diabetes was affecting my feet, so I decided to follow the Keto diet and life style, I have been doing it for over a year with minimum results, glucose around 200. Now I found Dr. Neal Barnard over a week ago, gave away all the meat in my refrigerator and started the vegan only diet. In only two days I noticed my constipation, gone, my acid reflex, gone, a couple of days after I noticed my mind clearing up and a sense of well being, however my glucose meter is now registering a number close to 400 no matter what I eat, I will continue being vegan to see how long it takes for the reading to drop.
@@myindiemusic4291 Thanks for asking: I consider myself a rebel, I have refused to take manmade drugs for diabetes. I was a contractor in my working years, I got a contract to work for company that builds treatment centers for an industry that grows 17% a year, I traveled to work on several cities where they have a center. I made friends with employees and with some patients, as a result I came to the conclusion that if not all, 95% of the patients were suffering from Diabetes 2 and under doctors care, these labs are the last place they go to before they die and the treatment is " Kidney Dialysis" So, my glucose is still high and so of course is the A1c but I have no symptoms, my eyes, feet, legs are fine, I do exercise a lot, gym for two hours four times a week, meals with no carbs, no sweets, organic food when I find it, I also practice a form of meditation called "Contemplation" so there is no stress in my life. The way I see it is that already live long enough. Also I was not born with this condition, I got it because of poor nutrition, stress and not taking care of my body, therefore by reversing the wrong things I did the body will respond and so far it has. Thanks again
I used keto (high protein and fat) in 3 months my A1C went from 6.5 to 5.4 , my triglycerides went from 179 to 49 , I lost 60 pounds and I’m feeling better
I have been doing 18/6 intermittent fasting, cut out sugar, rice and all kinds of bread. I have not eaten meat for many years. I only eat limited amount of seafood and no more than one egg a day. All my numbers have returned to 20 years ago. Everything is way within the normal range. I do think sugar and refined grains are part of the problems as well as animal products.
Dr Bernard, I like the way you explain the diabetes. The question on fat consumption, in one of the video by a nutritionist on Tedx talk, recommended to use high fat, high protein and low carb diet. But you mentioned if we eat more fat it increases insulin resistance. It’s completely different perspectives by qualified medical professionals and confusing more. Can you please throw some light on that topic ?
Hey I think I saw that video! I'm a nurse and have also increased my education beyond nursing school on topics of health and wellness. I wonder if I can shed some light on the topic. It was a lady saying she puts her patients on low carb, normal protein, high fat diets. She does this because fat can't spike blood sugar. She said patients would be cured, as long as they kept eating that way-meaning kept eating low carb. In my mind, her approach very well treats the symptoms of diabetes (having high blood sugar). If you don't take it any glucose, you won't have a lot of glucose in your blood, giving you normal blood sugar. And normal blood sugar over time makes a normal A1C, even if your cells are still jammed up with fat. While having normal blood sugar certainly would help you avoid many complications of diabetes, she doesn't address the cause of diabetes at all, or health overall. It's very well supported that high fat diets cause decreased heart health. She cited a study that showed A1C goes down to non-diabetic levels on her diet. But it didn't say anything about addressing the cause. Just addressing high blood sugar. Admittedly, if someone were to do her diet instead of living off pizza and donuts It would be a lot better. But she doesn't mention the cause of diabetes at its core. I love Dr. Bernard's approach (which is consistent with Dr. Gregor, forks over knifes, and the work of Tony Robbins along with others who have many many patients who years later are still thanking them for healing them from not just Diabetes but many ailments. Look at Dr. Gregor's website/books to see a bounty of breathtaking and high quality research he's collected on the topic of diabetes reversal. I was confused at first too watching that Ted talk. But thinking through it for a few minutes I'm no longer at all conflicted. Low carb may prevent symptoms (while possibly clogging your arteries and causing other problems from a diet high in fat), but plant based will support full healing through and through from everything from diabetes to heart disease to many types cancer.
I smoothed 2 okra, 2 -1” sliced of bitter melon 3 stalk of asparagus with 1 cup of organic apple juice and 2 tbsp of aloe Vera juice for my diabetes. I also take a clove of organic garlic after lunch .
Thanks for the great discussion. Coming from a couple years of LOW carb diet to control diabetes here where I gained 10 pounds. This is amazing information and makes sense health-wise. I've been switched to doing the WFPBNO now for a few weeks, but haven't seen even a pound dropped. You just shed the light on why....NUTS, nut butters, pumpkin seeds, avocados. Thank you for setting me straight! Back to the drawing board...try again!
Make sure you're lifting weights, as this will help you lose fat. You can eat nuts, avo's etc........just stick to one serving. If you don't have a whole lot of weight to lose, it will take a bit of time to start seeing a pound or two drop off. Slow and steady wins the race. Make sure you're getting enough calories.
Thank you doctor. I vanted to mention something for kids. I belive that activity in the modern world for kids is limited especially in countries that have to much snow. I am grown-up in western of Europe and as a child,I remember that always my joy was to get out and to play with my friends,running and enjoying out on the sun.In the modern world kids are in the car,play inside the house,go in school with parents in the car again. I belive the activity and friendship play a role also in their life. I am not mentioning adults. Thank you very much doctor 🙏 Your advices will help us more.
I'm 32 and after a trip to the ER I found out that I'm undiagnosed with diabetes. Right now I'm absolutely terrified to eat anything since I'm also without insurance or a primary doctor. It feels like getting my sugar down is so difficult, but it jumped from 213 to 267 after 1 kiwi.
@@skinnydee1886 I'm sorry for the confusion. I do have diabetes , but didn't know it. That's why it was undiagnosed. I've officially been diagnosed, as of Tuesday, after getting a primary doctor.
I am totally excited for this information. Very clearly explained. It's go time! I've recently had bloodwork done and it wasn't good. Starting WFPB diet now. Will recheck my bloodwork in 3 months
a friend who took 10 percent of the advise of this information, without even really understanding the issue, still managed to reduce his diabetes and other related kidney issues in a few days...
I have been almost on vegan diet from 2018 My HbA1C is down to 5.3 from 6.6 I lose 17 kg weight. My LDL-cholesterol is 95 mg/dL for the first time . Thank Dr. Neal Barnard so much. You save and change my life!
Hi Chuck, I know u get a ton of messages, but could you please ask Dr Barnard (or other PC drs to please have a closer look at the following from the blood sugar spike and generally health perspective pls? 😃 1) Potatoes, best way to prepare them 2) the whole "resistant starch" thing when it comes to potatoes and rice and wheat please? 🙏
YES to another follow up to this video episode! Thank you Dr Barnard! I am following these guidelines but adding staying away from nuts and nut butters. Need to get my weight down and get rid of this diabetes! Thank you DR BARNARD ❤️
1) Vitamin B12 is available in animal protein but non-existent in plant based diet. 2) The body needs Omega 3 fatty acids, e.g in chia seeds, flax seeds, more than it needs Omega 6. 3)Vitamin D3 (in grass-fed meet, sardines cod liver oil) is very important for calcium metabolism. Thanks for your lectured, sir.
Yes! Great info as usual. Sharing this with my grandkids too! Thank you both for your fantastic show! I was prediabetic before going wfpb. Now my labs are great. Other issues that were creeping up reversed as well.
I ve been suffering from knee pain , ive been drinking many medicine for my hypertension and diabetis ,also for pain killer for my knee and shoulder pain, what is best food for inflamattion ?
Dr Barnard, thanks for teaching about diabetes. I am 116 lbs 5.2,only. I don't want to lose weight, but I am diabetic around 10 yeas. taking metformin 1000 mg BID. how should I control diabetes and maintain weight. I have been watching your programs.
What about eating sardines for the omega or some fish? I know it is not plant based and is fatty but what if that's the only animal protein you eat along with Dr. Barnard's prescribed eating way??
Dr Neal Barnard, its a bless to found you on youtube. And thanks to physicians committee team. You covered a lot of good topics, but i couldn’t find the one about plant protein absorbtion. Bioavailability. Is it true that plant protein have a very low rate ? This topic is important for a lot of people. Please answer or provide the link if You ever discuss about this. Best regards !!
Ok, it all sounds excellent, but I still have a question about “healthy oils” like OLIVE and AVOCADO oils. Can we still have those in small/moderate amounts…..?
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. My GP has never confirmed this or given me a follow up or told me what my sugar levels are. I also learned, via a physiotherapist, I have CKD stage 3 kidney disease too. At 74 I fèel abandoned by the NHS. No follow up since my initial diagnosis of pre stage 2. 😢
I am 68 yr old now and eat healthy most of the time don't drink don't smoke never smoked i am not a diabete I am not on any meds. I want to grow old healthy thanks for your good advice.... but I love cheese n dairy and meats and fish so guess I will just eat them once in a while
if you can’t stop eating meat eat less that’s good. If everyone ate 25% less meat it would probably cure many of the problems that are caused by livestock and hunger in the world. If we can get it to 50% even better the idea is work on getting it lower not on maintaining what you were doing now. You can be a warrior just by not eating something even in a small amount every single thing helps.
Thanks alot for sharing ,one question ,l have Typ 2 Diabetes, took Insulin and Metformin 500mg 2x aday. Now l was able.to.get off the Insulin. But of a sudden my blood Sugar went up after a short holiday .up and dowm. I World like to know exactly what is good for me to eat ?
I love bread doctor 🙊 I can make oats bread with kayle and coconut milk yeast salt and water healthy bread..I LOVE BREAD IT TELLS ME I AM SPECIAL IT GIVES ME A WARM FEELING OF LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE WHEN I AM GIVEN BREAD ... BREAD IS A GIFT FROM GOD TO ME 🥰
I have not lost a pound and went WPF only . Blood sugar is 200-300 and my last A1c did go down from 10.2 to 8.1 with massive fasting. I have heart disease too. I am super focused to get thinner and stopped eating animal and don’t eat processed sugary stuff at all!!! My lipids all went way up. What am I doing wrong
Hi Dr Barnard. I'm not sure which podcast you discussed fasting. You, as I recall dismissed it, saying that you would use it as an excuse to eat more when you came off the fast. I respect your views, but you really should do some research on the benefits of autophagy where your body after about 18 hours, begins " eating old and damaged cells, including cancer cells. Cancer cells become weaker as they need glucose to thrive. They are not getting that supply when you fast. Please tell people the benefits of fasting and intermittent fasting. Thank you.
Thanks for this! God' s Peace to you both! You are changing the world for the better! This is a very important topic that many are confused on.👍💓🙏🕊🍃🌱🎉...For our health, for the animals, and for the preservation of nature...for all of creation...yes--- chase the plants!🙏
Thank you for this video. I transitioned to a plant based diet recently. Pretty much everyone in my family has type 2 diabetes and they ask me why not just eat lean meat and fat free or low fat dairy?
Dairy and meat are filled with hormones, have very little nutrition, and no fiber. Our bodies don't need such large amounts of protein and for sure doesn't need the hormones. Big dairy and meat industries load up animals with weight gaining things to get as much milk or as much meat from single animals. Very unnatural. I think Dr. Greger or Dr. John McDougal reviewed studies showing an increased risk of Type 1 diabetes with milk consumption.
If you get Dr. Gregor's book How Not To Die he has a chapter about diabetes. He makes it very clear from multiple studies why to do no meat and dairy. For example, boneless skinless chicken breasts have more fat than beef often. Hope that helps!
Fruit does raise blood sugar. Plus I am a skinny diabetic, no fat on me. Low carb and intermittent fasting is working better than my "healthy" diabetic diet the last 15 years!

I am 59 years old and no doctor has ever told me or my family about a healthier eating lifestyle. I'm going to my family doctor next week and you bet I'll ask them why. Great video. Much health and happiness to you! ❤❤❤

THE REASON IS SIMPLY BEC IF YOU EAT HEALTHY, THEY LOOSE YOUR MONEY 😀WHICH IS ALL THEY CARE ABOUT. 🌺☮️💟🌺
Are apples good for pre diabetic
@@LAKSHMIANGELES
Youre so right! Btw, it's lose, not loose!
@@victoriabachmann-osin1946 apples are great if you are also reducing your fat intake like Dr Barnard suggests. I just spent money on some high priced tennis shoes. I think I will spend a little to read his reversing diabetes book and get rid of my pre diabetes. You have to know that pre-diabetes is just diabetes that has not been formally diagnosed yet. However the effects of diabetes are already beginning to happen without being called diabetes. We’ve got a nip this stuff in the bud and stop at well before it becomes truly diagnosable as diabetes. Don’t run from diabetes. Run toward normal blood sugars!
Thank you, gentlemen! In particular, Dr. Barnard's reminder to keep our foods simple is excellent advice for everyone.
I how like you book. Name
My dr was not thrilled when I told her. She still keeps prescribing me meds but I do not take them. I started to see her Aug 2022 my a1c was 12.9 and my last visit Sept 2023 my a1c is 7.9. I been following plant based whole foods to the best I can.
Actually you should also be taking your meds until you don’t need them anymore 😮
Thank you for making this so easy to understand!
As always, thank you so much for this life saving information. You guys are amazing. I never understood diabetes until I listened to doctor Barnard explain it. As Einstein said, " if you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough ".
Thanks Dr Barnard for your platform on Diabetes. I have been with diabetes for 15yrs and using all the tablets prescribed by my doctor but I have never felt so good as I am doing now that I learnt to use the directions that I followed from your programme. This I have done only for a month now. I am going to visit my doctor this week and have a discussion with him. I am still using his medication however.Thank you Dr Barnard.
Thank you so much for information well appreaciated. M Smith

God bless you Dr Neal.
Dr. Barnard - a highly respected physician, always on point
I checked out the video version of Dr. Barnard’s book for reversing diabetes, and I am loving my blood sugars. I have gone from out of control to very close to ideal very quickly. I was having blood sugars in the three and four hundreds to consistently under two hundred. I can’t wait to see more improvements! Thank you Dr. Barnard! God bless and stay veggie! 🥗✝️❤️
Congratulations! Can you please tell me this. Was your blood sugar three and four hundreds in the morning when you test it or all day? Thankyou in advance!
Keep up the good work! Those are very dangerous levels and it's so good you've discovered the way to get them down. Soon you'll be waking up to 90!
PleSe let me what one can do to prevent weight loss on a plant based clean eating diet
Why having Diabetes in somethey fat and others very thin is insulin cause leanness
The 200s are still unhealthy. Any number spiking to over 140 is not desirable. I was educated by a youtube creater called 'beat diabetes.'
Thank you very much and God bless you both. Looking forward to further episodes. Most doctors dont tell us what to do to lower sugars and cholesterol so thank you very much.
This is so great! Wonderful information about diabetes. There is so much of it in my relatives on both sides of the family that I have been really concerned. Thank you for the answers to so many of my questions. I am about 95 - 98% vegan at this point and still working on it.
yea.. but the rest of your family is NOT going to be able to go on a Vegan diet! Vegan is a diet of calorie deprivation in disguise and why it REALLY works. (hint...loosing weight). plenty of better diets that are realistic.
Yes, I love these shows, they are medically educational
Vera, Pensacola, Florida
This isxtge best video on diabetes I have ever seen. Thank you soo much.
I can vouch that when I went on a coconut oil binge for a while a few years ago, my cholesterol jumped A LOT despite being vegan. It came back down when I quit coconut oil.
Same here.

I think the person that wrote in about intermittent fasting meant was compressing your consumption of food into something like a 6 hour time window, only eating between 12 noon and 6 pm. Delaying breakfast and not eating after dinner. Can you ask Dr B about this? Thanks
Get it up Dr thanks for helping 🙏 God bless you 🙏. Pray 🙏 for me I'm trying keep praying for me
Dr. B is the best. Always explains very well and easy to learn from
I respectfully would just like to say, that there’s a lot well researched information available regarding diabetes & insulin resistance & diabetes reversal, that allows for meat & dairy (providing you have no allergies) which cautions against excessive fructose found in fruit. I agree it can get confusing with too many different viewpoints, but it's so important to find what really works regarding diabetes intervention. It’s well worth investing time in some comparative presentations/research.
There's no way you can really look at the research and not see that the less meat, dairy and oil you eat the healthier you are.
The science all points to animal protein consumption being at the forefront of illness and disease. It’s really a matter of accepting the truth so that we can find health and healing.
Hahaha, why would vegans want to eat meat?
Respectfully I have tried many of the diets recommended for diabetes and the only one that has worked well for me is a plant based diet my diabetic condition has improved on plant based diet and not on the others
Sxm
Thank you so much for doing all this research. I am older, and have lost 80 lbs, but it's been some time. I'm back on a losing plan, and don't want to go back, so thank you for talking about not eating fatty vegs, (nuts, seeds, avocado) I'm finally not eating these plus avoid flour products. It's been such a struggle for me, but was testing high for blood sugar a few years ago, in spite of knowing about and saying that I was following the wfpb no oil eating plan. I also avoid salt. For those of us who have been close to the edge, Thank you, Dr. Barnard. I'm losing weight again, and getting the best nutrition possible.
It sounds like you have a proportion problem - just don't eat too many nuts, seeds, avocado or salt. Those foods are good for you!
Yes, please do a follow up show. Thank you. Excellent show & info.
Over 20 years ago I was diagnosed diabetic 2, these doctor prescribed the usual Metformin and Crestor for the cholesterol, I study the side effects of these drugs and decided not to take any conventional drugs. I started on my own to select and eat low glycemic food, plenty of exercise and have peace of mind by doing some spiritual exercises. All this time rejecting doctor prescribed drugs from other doctors.
Over a year ago my diabetes was affecting my feet, so I decided to follow the Keto diet and life style, I have been doing it for over a year with minimum results, glucose around 200. Now I found Dr. Neal Barnard over a week ago, gave away all the meat in my refrigerator and started the vegan only diet. In only two days I noticed my constipation, gone, my acid reflex, gone, a couple of days after I noticed my mind clearing up and a sense of well being, however my glucose meter is now registering a number close to 400 no matter what I eat, I will continue being vegan to see how long it takes for the reading to drop.
Hello! Was wondering how is it now after 5 months. Are you still on the vegan diet? Did your blood glucose eventually go down?
@@myindiemusic4291 Thanks for asking: I consider myself a rebel, I have refused to take manmade drugs for diabetes. I was a contractor in my working years, I got a contract to work for company that builds treatment centers for an industry that grows 17% a year, I traveled to work on several cities where they have a center.
I made friends with employees and with some patients, as a result I came to the conclusion that if not all, 95% of the patients were suffering from Diabetes 2 and under doctors care, these labs are the last place they go to before they die and the treatment is " Kidney Dialysis"
So, my glucose is still high and so of course is the A1c but I have no symptoms, my eyes, feet, legs are fine, I do exercise a lot, gym for two hours four times a week, meals with no carbs, no sweets, organic food when I find it, I also practice a form of meditation called "Contemplation" so there is no stress in my life. The way I see it is that already live long enough. Also I was not born with this condition, I got it because of poor nutrition, stress and not taking care of my body, therefore by reversing the wrong things I did the body will respond and so far it has.
Thanks again
@@harh3101 also Cyrus khambatta and mastering diabetes are good resources if you wanna check them out, they also champion a plant based diet
I used keto (high protein and fat) in 3 months my A1C went from 6.5 to 5.4 , my triglycerides went from 179 to 49 , I lost 60 pounds and I’m feeling better
same for me...keto for 2 years...lost weight and no longer pre diabetic.
39:09 39:32 ❤😂yes great show.
Yeah the keto/paleo diet is a temporary fix lol it will eventually cause heart disease, hypertension, cancer and inflammation.
I would hate to see your arteries
I have been doing 18/6 intermittent fasting, cut out sugar, rice and all kinds of bread. I have not eaten meat for many years. I only eat limited amount of seafood and no more than one egg a day. All my numbers have returned to 20 years ago. Everything is way within the normal range. I do think sugar and refined grains are part of the problems as well as animal products.
Very sound advice. Keep up the good work.
You're so right.. refined grains and animal products are a big no no..
Hobby Farmer,
Great news! Nice to hear that you're doing very well with Intermittent fasting. God bless you 🙏 ❤
thanks from dr &chuck Carol/this is important for all of us/I am diabetic and I fallow dr Neal barnard. thanks again
Great chat! I love Dr Barnard, so calm and informative
Dr Bernard, I like the way you explain the diabetes. The question on fat consumption, in one of the video by a nutritionist on Tedx talk, recommended to use high fat, high protein and low carb diet. But you mentioned if we eat more fat it increases insulin resistance. It’s completely different perspectives by qualified medical professionals and confusing more.
Can you please throw some light on that topic ?
Hey I think I saw that video! I'm a nurse and have also increased my education beyond nursing school on topics of health and wellness. I wonder if I can shed some light on the topic.
It was a lady saying she puts her patients on low carb, normal protein, high fat diets. She does this because fat can't spike blood sugar. She said patients would be cured, as long as they kept eating that way-meaning kept eating low carb. In my mind, her approach very well treats the symptoms of diabetes (having high blood sugar). If you don't take it any glucose, you won't have a lot of glucose in your blood, giving you normal blood sugar. And normal blood sugar over time makes a normal A1C, even if your cells are still jammed up with fat. While having normal blood sugar certainly would help you avoid many complications of diabetes, she doesn't address the cause of diabetes at all, or health overall. It's very well supported that high fat diets cause decreased heart health. She cited a study that showed A1C goes down to non-diabetic levels on her diet. But it didn't say anything about addressing the cause. Just addressing high blood sugar. Admittedly, if someone were to do her diet instead of living off pizza and donuts It would be a lot better. But she doesn't mention the cause of diabetes at its core.
I love Dr. Bernard's approach (which is consistent with Dr. Gregor, forks over knifes, and the work of Tony Robbins along with others who have many many patients who years later are still thanking them for healing them from not just Diabetes but many ailments. Look at Dr. Gregor's website/books to see a bounty of breathtaking and high quality research he's collected on the topic of diabetes reversal.
I was confused at first too watching that Ted talk. But thinking through it for a few minutes I'm no longer at all conflicted. Low carb may prevent symptoms (while possibly clogging your arteries and causing other problems from a diet high in fat), but plant based will support full healing through and through from everything from diabetes to heart disease to many types cancer.
I smoothed 2 okra, 2 -1” sliced of bitter melon 3 stalk of asparagus with 1 cup of organic apple juice and 2 tbsp of aloe Vera juice for my diabetes. I also take a clove of organic garlic after lunch .
Sounds pretty good! May I suggest losing the apple juice and substituting with an apple!😊 just a thought!
Thanks for the great discussion. Coming from a couple years of LOW carb diet to control diabetes here where I gained 10 pounds. This is amazing information and makes sense health-wise. I've been switched to doing the WFPBNO now for a few weeks, but haven't seen even a pound dropped. You just shed the light on why....NUTS, nut butters, pumpkin seeds, avocados. Thank you for setting me straight! Back to the drawing board...try again!
Make sure you're lifting weights, as this will help you lose fat. You can eat nuts, avo's etc........just stick to one serving. If you don't have a whole lot of weight to lose, it will take a bit of time to start seeing a pound or two drop off. Slow and steady wins the race. Make sure you're getting enough calories.
Thank you doctor.
I vanted to mention something for kids.
I belive that activity in the modern world for kids is limited especially in countries that have to much snow.
I am grown-up in western of Europe and as a child,I remember that always my joy was to get out and to play with my friends,running and enjoying out on the sun.In the modern world kids are in the car,play inside the house,go in school with parents in the car again.
I belive the activity and friendship play a role also in their life.
I am not mentioning adults.
Thank you very much doctor 🙏

Good night Dr., Can u info us Both tpyes of diabetes??? Please!!!
I changed doctors when I moved last, new doc very happy I was eating wfpb.
Thank you for the info. It is a much needed topic.
1) Vitamin B12 is available in animal protein but non-existent in plant based diet. 2) The body needs Omega 3 fatty acids, e.g in chia seeds, flax seeds, more than it needs Omega 6. 3)Vitamin D3 (in grass-fed meet, sardines cod liver oil) is very important for calcium metabolism. Thanks for your lectured, sir.
...meat, not meet...
@@franceschukwukere209
No worries. 😌
I agree. I think the main culprit is processed food, not meat.
Most north americans are b12 and d3 deficient and they eat meat, both of those vitamins should be supplemented for everyone.

Yes! Great info as usual. Sharing this with my grandkids too! Thank you both for your fantastic show! I was prediabetic before going wfpb. Now my labs are great. Other issues that were creeping up reversed as well.

Thanks Dr Barnard,
I am using you recipes. Very helpful .
What about eating sardines for the omega or some fish? I know it is not plant based and is fatty but what if that's the only animal protein you eat along with Dr. Barnard's prescribed eating way??
I eat sardines then the plants
I have RA AND Eating PLANT BASED …. Also am pre diabetic . So trying to manage both .
Dr Neal Barnard, its a bless to found you on youtube. And thanks to physicians committee team. You covered a lot of good topics, but i couldn’t find the one about plant protein absorbtion.

Can we still have those in small/moderate amounts…..?

Thank to both of you for info god blessed
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. My GP has never confirmed this or given me a follow up or told me what my sugar levels are. I also learned, via a physiotherapist, I have CKD stage 3 kidney disease too. At 74 I fèel abandoned by the NHS. No follow up since my initial diagnosis of pre stage 2. 😢
Yes for more diabetes coverage and its effects on older people.
I am 68 yr old now and eat healthy most of the time don't drink don't smoke never smoked i am not a diabete I am not on any meds. I want to grow old healthy thanks for your good advice.... but I love cheese n dairy and meats and fish so guess I will just eat them once in a while
if you can’t stop eating meat eat less that’s good. If everyone ate 25% less meat it would probably cure many of the problems that are caused by livestock and hunger in the world. If we can get it to 50% even better the idea is work on getting it lower not on maintaining what you were doing now. You can be a warrior just by not eating something even in a small amount every single thing helps.
I liked this video. I want more

Yes, just ran into you. Interesting statements. Will subscribe.
Hi Dr Barnard. I'm not sure which podcast you discussed fasting. You, as I recall dismissed it, saying that you would use it as an excuse to eat more when you came off the fast. I respect your views, but you really should do some research on the benefits of autophagy where your body after about 18 hours, begins " eating old and damaged cells, including cancer cells. Cancer cells become weaker as they need glucose to thrive. They are not getting that supply when you fast. Please tell people the benefits of fasting and intermittent fasting. Thank you.

Thank you for this video. I transitioned to a plant based diet recently. Pretty much everyone in my family has type 2 diabetes and they ask me why not just eat lean meat and fat free or low fat dairy?
Vegan or low carb, dark green leafy vegetables are the key to the best results.
Dairy and meat are filled with hormones, have very little nutrition, and no fiber. Our bodies don't need such large amounts of protein and for sure doesn't need the hormones. Big dairy and meat industries load up animals with weight gaining things to get as much milk or as much meat from single animals. Very unnatural. I think Dr. Greger or Dr. John McDougal reviewed studies showing an increased risk of Type 1 diabetes with milk consumption.
Dr Ewi1 on UA-cam cure Herpes totally
If you get Dr. Gregor's book How Not To Die he has a chapter about diabetes. He makes it very clear from multiple studies why to do no meat and dairy. For example, boneless skinless chicken breasts have more fat than beef often. Hope that helps!
Great show!!! Please repeat.
