An alternate perspective on diabetes. It’s common theory that Type II diabetes can be controlled through diet. The author calls that a myth and states that even Type II diabetes is best controlled through prescription drugs. She discusses the idea that carbohydrate restriction is actually harmful rather than helpful. This is an interesting take on ordinary assumptions.
Key Takeaways:
- There is a phenomenon circulating in our community that diabetes can be reversed with nutrition therapies, nutrition supplements and a special diet that removes almost all carbohydrates and dairy from a person’s diet.
- Diabetes is a complex disease that should be managed by a physician or practitioner that knows you well, understands your needs and works with you to find the right medication for your lifestyle.
- As a dietitian, I find that most of us do not have nutritional imbalances and can and should eat a healthier diet.
