Roughly 100 million Americans have diabetes or prediabetes and in the past five years, the spendings on diabetes drugs in the US have more than doubled. Now several independent health care clinics are trying to stop this drug trend. The Fresh Food Farmacy program being tested by Geisinger Health System in Pennsylvania educates and offers their patients free nutritious meals that can lower diabetes treatments costs by 80%. Instead of relying solely on drugs to manage the disease, doctors are writing prescriptions for certain patients to enter its Fresh Food Farmacy program The elite triathlete Sami Inkinen teamed up with a doctor and a scientist and founded Virta Health after managing his own prediabetes with a ketogenic diet. Virta connects patients with doctors to help implement a keto diet and to monitor their biomarkers daily. The company is working to expand to more coverage from insurers and employers, with the goal of reversing diabetes in 100 million people by 2025

The keto diet: “I feel 1000% better”

Dave had been eating unhealthily for about 30 years and had tried various diets without any success. When his weight had ballooned up to 249 lbs (113 kg) and he had several other physical problems he decided it was time to stop yo-yo dieting. Not long after he found the keto diet: I am a 68-year-old male from Chesterfield, VA. For most of my life, I have either worked crazy hours or did crazy travel. Consequently, I did not eat healthily, particularly in the last 30 years. I have tried a lot of diets. I would lose weight but seemed to never be able to sustain staying on the diet. My weight ballooned up to 249 lbs (113 kg) two years ago (that is the before picture that I sent). I managed to cut back on my eating and got down to about 235 lbs (106 kg). I got pretty disgusted with myself and resolved to stop with the yo-yo dieting and get serious. My wife has been trying to get me to eat healthier for more than 30 years, but for the last 20 years, I have been on the road working...

ADA 2018: Very low-carbohydrate diets for diabetes

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Very low-carbohydrate diets for management of diabetes have undoubtedly gained more and more popularity in recent years and the acceptance has grown. At the American Diabetes Association’s 78th Scientific Sessions, the ballroom filled up with a huge crowd when it was time for two presentations on a very low-carb diet (VLCD) for diabetes. Dr. Jeannie Tay and Dr. Martin I. de Bock who gave the presentations explained their studies on how a low-carb diet can help reverse and manage diabetes. Dr. Tay stated that a very low carbohydrate diet offers a considerable advantage over a high-carbohydrate approach for patients with type 2 diabetes. It is a good diet to have if you have diabetes, and the data support that. This symposium generated a lot of attention in both social media channels and at the meeting. Here’s an interesting report from it: Diabetes Daily: Very Low Carbohydrate Diets for Diabetes (ADA 2018) Type 2 diabetes "We are not designed to be chronically ill"

New government proposal to fight child obesity in the UK

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Children in the UK are among the most overweight and obese in the EU. 22% of children in England are overweight or obese when they start school at age four or five. The percentage increases to 34% when it’s time to start primary school. A major problem and treating illnesses related to the issue, like type 2 diabetes and cancer, is estimated to cost the UK economy £27bn a year. The government’s Childhood Obesity Plan has come up with a proposal with the intention to halve childhood obesity in England by 2030. The new measures are tougher than previous ones that were widely criticized for being too weak. Sweet snacks sold at checkouts will be banned, tighter restrictions on junk food ads on TV and online, and mandatory calorie labeling on restaurant menus are all part of the new proposal. The plans have been extensively welcomed. Let’s hope these new measures will help obese children. They could be effective, except for the calorie labeling where there’s clear evidence...

Can a keto diet cure skin disorders?

Izabelle had always been active and interested in food and nutrition but got numerous diseases after being vegan for six months. At that time she was a nutritional medicine student which made her look for answers in different diets. Fortunately, she found out about the low-carb diet and changed her way of eating. This is her story: To whom it may concern, I have always considered myself to be healthy, always been active, eating my fruit, vegetables and tried hard not to eat too much of “the bad stuff”. I’ve always been interested in cooking, so I did three years at Stockholms Hotel and restaurant school to become a chef when I was 15-18 years old. I later moved to Australia to complete a diploma in fitness to become a personal trainer (2013). I fell in love in Australia and decided I wanted to add a nutritional medicine degree because I realized exercise was not going to be enough if I wanted to help change someone’s life. When I started my nutritional medicine degree...

This week, we summarize the top five news articles and studies in the low-carb realm, plus, some additional reads and inspiration. News and emerging science Reinsurance giant, Swiss Re, hosted a “meeting of the minds” on nutrition and health in Zurich last week. Experts on many sides came together to highlight common ground and debate differences. A key message: type 2 diabetes is often reversible and offering patients options to do so should become the standard. Pittsburgh area politician, John Fetterman, loses ~150 pounds by cutting out sugar/grains and walking more. Will this mayor and Democratic nominee for LT Governor help bring the message of reducing sugar and starch for better health to the people of Pennsylvania?

Is saturated fat causing PTSD?

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Is fat dangerous? As the old and irrational fear of fat collapses, due to a lack of scientific support, media headlines still continue to scare some people. In a new study, researchers compared a “Western high-fat diet” to a standard “control” diet. The study resulted in the press release headline: Adolescents who consume a diet high in saturated fats may develop poor stress coping skills, signs of post-traumatic stress disorder as adults. This headline about PTSD was picked up and published in multiple online news outlets. They make it sound pretty serious to consume saturated fat but what is this study actually based on? Well, it’s a rat study. Last time I checked rats are a different species than humans. Also, the “Western high-fat diet” was not just high in fat, it was complete junk food. In fact, compared to the “control” diet it had half the protein, 67% more calories and – above all – it had more than 17 times the sugar. A reminder to remain...

Get the answer to these questions in this week’s Q&A with the fertility specialist Dr. Fox: Is it harmful to start keto while pregnant? Is it dangerous to start a ketogenic diet during pregnancy? Ronnicia   Dr. Fox: Simple answer = No. The first week one experiences drug withdrawal from carbohydrates (“keto flu”) which are basically drugs that we ingest in large quantities in our diet. It would then be similar to withdrawal from caffeine for example in pregnancy or cigarette smoking, both of which would be supported by all physicians. Once you are one week out on the diet, you will be on the best diet possible for pregnancy all the way around for you and the baby. Remember, it is now believed that signals from mother to fetus trigger the insulin resistance system with metabolic syndrome. The signal is...

Here’s a very inspiring story. Judy has gone from being incapacitated by her weight to losing 100 pounds (45 kg) – thanks to a keto diet. Wow! Want to know how she did it? Here she explains all the details: Before photo: Not able to walk very far due to knee damage from so much weight for so many years, and being unable to walk very far without losing my energy and losing my breath, I used an electric power chair to get around. People felt sorry for the old lady in the wheelchair, usually treating me like my intelligence was diminished as well, for some reason. Finally, my doctor told me I was officially diabetic. Honestly, having felt so bad for so many years, I actually said this out loud, “Good! That means I’ll get healthy now!” Seriously, it took a dire diagnosis, but I knew it meant serious business, and that meant I’d finally focus enough attention to my eating habits. I took the diagnosis as good news. After photo: I’m still losing weight after having lost...

Low carb awareness increasing in India

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Low-carb diets are taking the world with storm, and the people of India are not late to catch on to it. After Rajesh Dudeja discovered that he suffered from type 2 diabetes, his endocrinologist recommended a low-fat lower-carb diet along with insulin injections to manage the disease. His blood sugars improved significantly, but he still didn’t feel well and couldn’t lose weight. Fortunately he found out about low-carb, high-fat diets, lost 36 kg (79 lbs) and was able to stop taking all medications. Rajesh’s story is not uncommon. Many people who try LCHF discover that their blood sugars improve significantly, and that they can lose weight without hunger.

Americans are trading carbs for fat

A new survey by the International Food Information Council reveals that more Americans are ditching carbs in favor of fats, a clear indication that the view on what is healthy is changing. Overall, the survey suggests that Americans are increasingly trading carbohydrates for fats. Twenty-five percent of survey respondents blamed carbohydrates for their growing waistlines — up from 20 percent last year, while 33 percent blamed sugar. These numbers are both at “the highest since 2011,” according to the report. Only 16 percent blamed fats for weight gain, and just three percent fingered protein.

Vested interests and evidence-based medicine

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

One of the greatest problems in medicine today is that academic medicine has been sold to the highest bidder. Under the guise of ‘Evidence Based Medicine’ the public has been sold fraudulent goods, and the result is that people suffer from unnecessary but lucrative procedures and take unnecessary but lucrative medications. Let me explain. Much of the data we use in medicine comes from epidemiology studies – where one thing is associated with another. It is easy to prove association, but much harder to prove that one thing causes the other, which is what we want to know. It is very dangerous to accept data from epidemiologic studies because there are too many confounding factors. That is how we wound up with millions of women prescribed hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which turned out to be giving them cancer. In the late 1990s, there was a very strong association between women taking HRT and reduction of heart disease – about a 50% reduction. Based on this flimsy...

Once he got started, however, the 250-pound (113-kg) weight loss was apparently easy: When I reflect on my weight loss and where I came from, I think of a movie line from Apollo 13.

Diabetes roundtable at Swiss Re Institute, June 17. Photo: Eric Westman.   What happens when a collection of prominent voices from across the world have an opportunity to hear and discuss their divergent views on nutrition and health? Spoiler alert: no fistfights. But there were dozens of pointed remarks, a smattering of defensiveness, and enough oversimplifications to go around. Certainly, Swiss Re Institute’s back-to-back meetings on “the science and politics of nutrition“ and on “redefining diabetes” left everyone who attended or followed remotely with a lot to think about. As a reinsurance company with an interest in helping people live longer, healthier lives, Swiss Re had already published a 2016 report challenging conventional thinking about nutrition guidance. In order to try to address ongoing controversies over the role that food plays in long-term health, they hosted a four-day meeting in Zurich that Fiona Godlee, editor-in-chief of the BMJ, called a...

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Experts agree that lifestyle and dietary intervention can help prevent and manage type 2 diabetes. But what diet to use has been under much debate, and many experts have historically been sceptical towards low-carb diets, while a growing minority are very much in favor. So what does everyone agree on? A new article in the British Medical Journal brings together authors with different viewpoints to summarize the current state of the art. It highlights that there is in fact emerging science in favor of low-carb diets for the treatment of type 2 diabetes: Low carbohydrate diets as the preferred choice in type 2 diabetes is controversial. Some guidelines maintain that no single ideal percentage distribution of calories from different macronutrients (carbohydrates, fat, or protein) exists, but there are calls to review this in light of emerging evidence on the potential benefits of low carbohydrate diets for weight management and glycaemic control.

Millions of people in the UK may want to ditch statins, along with the currently recommended low-fat products and starches, if they want to beat heart disease. That’s what experts Dr. Aseem Malhotra and Professor Dame Sue Bailey write in a new manifesto: Here was a man who suffered a heart attack after following what we now know to be unscientific government dietary advice but made an informed decision to dramatically change his diet and stop the cocktail of drugs he was prescribed after suffering debilitating side-effects. Now his health has never been better. We have to keep reminding ourselves that good health rarely comes out of a medicine bottle. — Dr Aseem Malhotra, consultant cardiologist Express: Ditch pills to beat heart disease Pharmaceutical Journal: Ignorance is not bliss: why we need more empowered patients Earlier New study: Keto improves cardiovascular health markers Most viewed BMJ paper 2017: Saturated fat does not clog the arteries Heart Disease

When Archit went to university his weight ballooned rapidly and he started having health issues. After a while he decided that enough was enough and he joined a gym to overcome the problems. Fortunately, he also found out about the low-carb diet and dove right in. This is what happened: Hi, My name is Archit and this is my story. Life before: While I was studying economics I started gaining fat (really fast). I went from some 75-80 kg (165-176 lbs) to 115 kg (254 lbs) after which I didn’t find any sense to measure. I knew something was wrong I had difficulty breathing and slowly other issues also crept up. What happened: After some time I decided it was enough and I needed to make some changes in my life. I joined a gym and started working out but still got fatter. Luckily at that time I saw a video by Jeff Volek: The art and science of low-carb living and my whole world went upside down.

A low-carb cult? Article deems LCHF ‘magical thinking’

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Are you a guilty member of the low-carb high-fat cult? That’s apparently the name for the growing number of people who have transformed their health on a low-carb diet. But it’s just ‘magical thinking’ according to a new article. The author concludes that any weight loss on low carb is simply due to eating fewer calories. And similarly, the thousands of reversals of type 2 diabetes is in the end only the result of going on a restrictive diet. It’s “basic science”. One of Twitter’s odder subcultures warns you of its obsessive presence with the hashtag #LCHF. It stands for ‘low carb, high fat’ and its followers have remarkably strong feelings about carbohydrates. Why? Mostly because they used to be fat and then they gave up carbs. They are no longer fat and so, QED, carbs are the cause of obesity and people shouldn’t worry about calories or physical activity. Silly old scientists won’t admit this profound but hidden truth because they have been bought off...

News and emerging science New WHO study presented at European obesity conference in Vienna projects that without a change in course, global obesity and diabetes rates will reach 22% (obesity, up from 14% in 2017) and 12% (diabetes, up from 9% in 2017) by 2045. Author Nina Teicholz’s op-ed in the LA Times asks why our government has enacted new regulations that require chain restaurants to post calorie counts on menus when the science doesn’t support the notion that this will make a difference in the battle against obesity. New study shows lifestyle advice to “eat less, exercise more” fails to meaningfully reduce the progression from prediabetes to a type 2 diabetes diagnosis.

Why Eating Keto Makes You Less Stressed

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Eating sugar (and carbohydrates) chronically stresses us out. Let’s dive into how it happens and what you can do about it to STOP cravings in their tracks on your ketogenic diet.

We associate stress with our hectic schedules and endless to do lists, but a large portion of the stress we experience is from the foods that we eat.

First, the basics: your adrenals sit on top of your kidneys. They’re no bigger than a walnut, no heavier than a grape. These little guys are responsible for releasing hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, effectively managing how your body deals with stress and, the kicker? Helping you maintain balanced blood sugar.

What happens when you run those kids to soccer, go to the gym, compete for the promotion, worry about your diet, or count your calories to exhaustion?

Cortisol increases.

Cortisol, the primary stress hormone, increases sugars (glucose) in the bloodstream – so that you have the fuel you need to run away from the “danger” that your...

When Samuel was 18 years old, he was diagnosed with Bechterew’s disease and was put on aggressive treatment to treat the pain in his hip and lumbar spine. But he suffered severe side effects from the medication, and started researching alternative ways to treat the autoimmune condition. Four years later, he is off all medications thanks to an anti-inflammatory diet. Now he will take part in a 200-mile (300 km) bicycle race in Sweden, for the Dietary Science Foundation. You can read his touching story in the link below. It is well worth a read. The medicine that Samuel Backman, 22, was prescribed for Bechterew’s disease gave him brain fog. When it was at its worst, he could collapse in the middle of the day, hardly able to move. Now he’ll ride a 200-mile (300 km) long bicycle race around Lake Vättern in Sweden for the Dietary Science Foundation. Thanks to the drastic changes he made to his diet, Samuel can live without medicine these days, and the future looks bright.

Carnivory: How Amber transformed her health with a meat-only diet

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Amber started having issues with weight around the time she went to university. Although she followed a strict vegetarian diet and exercised, she simply couldn’t get control over her weight. But then an exchange in Russia introduced her to the benefits of eating more meat and caused her to question what constitutes a healthy diet. Since the beginning of 2009 she has been following an even stricter version of keto: a carnivore diet. It has helped her shed post-pregnancy weight that was hard to lose with the low-carb diet that had worked so well previously. But even more importantly, the zero-carb diet alleviates all symptoms of her bipolar II disorder.  The carnivore diet has grown in popularity this year, and more and more people are trying it. But fewer have followed it long term like Amber. Have you considered trying the diet, but are unsure of how to implement it or whether it would benefit you? Then read on.

‘Surgery in a pill’: The latest crazy way to lose weight

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

There’s no end to the weird ways people promote for weight loss. You can eat real low-carb food to lose weight and manage type 2 diabetes. OR you can just take a pill which mimics bariatric surgery and keep eating disease-promoting high-carb junk food. It may work to some degree, for some time, at least if you’re a rat. It sounds like a joke, but unfortunately it is not. Let me introduce you to yet another weird weight-loss method: An oral agent was administered in rats to deliver a substance that could temporarily coat the intestine to prevent nutrient contact with the lining in the proximal bowel and avoid post-meal spikes in blood sugar. “We envision a pill that a patient can take before a meal that transiently coats the gut to replicate the effects of surgery,” said co-senior author Jeff Karp, PhD, a bioengineer and principal investigator at BWH. Science Daily: ‘Surgery in a pill’ a potential treatment for diabetes Here’s the problem. If you coat the intestines...

How do you prevent kids from becoming food addicts?

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

How do you prevent kids from becoming food addicts? Is it bad to go on and off the LCHF diet? And what to do if you relapse all the time? These and other questions are answered this week by our food-addiction expert, Bitten Jonsson, RN: Preventing kids from becoming food addicts Dear Mrs. Jonsson, As a mother of 2 boys (10 and 7 years) I really take care of their alimentation, we eat organic plain food, almost no grains (some buckwheat and spelt bread I do at home for them) and no sugar (yes some raw honey for them) but I see they binge in manufactured candies and junk food when they are at kids parties or with grandparents (who don’t want to understand our way of eating). How can I help them to not fall in that? They do it because we’re “so strict” at home? It would be very helpful if you write something about this topic. Thank you very much. Blanca Hello Blanca, Thank you for a very important question. The most important maybe. I myself do not work with anyone under...

New study: US toddlers consume too much sugar

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

American toddlers eat more than seven teaspoons of added sugar per day, an amount which exceeds the recommended intake for an adult female. And the consumption just increases with time. This is what a new study reveals, and its findings are disturbing for a number of reasons: Added sugar consumption has been linked with obesity, dental caries, asthma and risk factors for heart disease, such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Eating foods with added sugar also can influence a child’s food preferences, potentially leading to less healthy food choices later in life, researchers say. EurekAlert! American toddlers consume too much added sugar QUARTZ: American toddlers are eating more sugar than the maximum amount recommended for adults ABC News: Toddlers consuming too much added sugar, study finds Earlier New recommendation: no fruit juice for children under the age of one Gary Taubes: Treating sugar like cigarettes key for children’s health Sugar The problem...
