Mar 18, 2020

Cyrus Khambatta, Ph.D. is the New York Times bestselling author of Mastering Diabetes: The Revolutionary Method to Reverse Insulin Resistance in Type 1, Type 1.5, Type 2, Prediabetes, and Gestational Diabetes, and the co-founder of Mastering Diabetes, an online group coaching program for people with all forms of diabetes. He has been living with type 1 diabetes for more than 18 years and has helped thousands of people improve their health and fitness using plant-based nutrition. 

His approach to living with and managing it is a bit revolutionary, and antithetical to most of what we know about it. For anyone who has any type of diabetes, this is an incredibly informative episode.

 

Cyrus talks about...

• Learning how to control your blood glucose levels
• Becoming vegetarian or vegan with diabetes
• Eating fruit--LOTS of fruit--with diabetes.  It's a gamechanger
• How fat content determines your insulin use more than carbohydrates
• Applying the benefits of the low fat & carb diet if you don’t have diabetes
• His typical daily diet
• Making decisions in the short term and the long term
