Mainstream Dr's & Dietician's in Australia aren't recommending Keto / Intermittent fasting. Medication & multiple daily meals & snacks are still standard medical recommendations. I was diagnosed with moderate nafld. Even with HbA1c going from 6.1 to 4.8 & dropping 25kg in 4 months, still another 10kg to before getting to a healthy weight range. My Dr was very happy & wants me to continue doing what ever I'm doing, my dietician wants me to put carbs back into multiple meals & snacks 🤷 I never feel hungry between meals & my blood sugar readings improved even more if I start a meal with greens & veggies. The hardest part is breaking the habit of years of constantly going from meals to snacks. Maintaining balanced healthy eating habits is my priority & everything else will improve ✌️

The problem is that the diabetics that are on Ozempic aren't really changing their diet

@defeatdiabetes

Жыл бұрын

Hi Leanne, thanks for the comments. Ozempic is only meant to be prescribed for people with type 2 diabetes in Australia. People are using it for weight loss but it is not on the PBS for that - which is why it is expensive, the Government does not support. Interestingly, if you read the small print, it says that using Ozempic should be accompanied by dietary changes including low carb. The average weight loss on ozempic is about 5 kg, and it generally lowers the HBA1C by about 1 to 1.5%. Low carb can result in a much greater weight loss and a much greater reduction in HBA1C. We hope this helps.

Ben Bickman warns that Ozempic works by shrinking fat cells but also creates many more fat cells. So when stopping Ozempic all the fat cells can be fattened. Hightower risk if not changing your way of eating.

My obese sister just started the Mounjaro(tirzepatide)injections and she's dropping weight quickly.However, she won't give up the sugar and carbs. So...I'm wondering if this drug is for life...or will she stop the injections and gain the weight back. There are some serious adverse events listed in the package insert...pancreatitis, gallbladder issues and thyroid cancer.

Hi Valerie. The evidence is quite clear. The medication works while the person is taking it, and when the person stops taking it then the weight is regained, between ¾ to all of the weight over the next 6 to 12 months. This is no different to all weight loss approaches - if you stop doing it eg low carb, then the weight comes back on. There is another problem with these medications. People often lose their appetite for protein. This means that there is often quite a high loss of lean mass, ie muscle mass, rather than loss of fat. Generally when people lose weight, you want no more than 25% of the weight loss to be muscle loss. With these medications, it appears that 40 - 50% of the weight loss is muscle loss. This is not a good outcome and we are probably / possibly not doing the person any favours with this amount of muscle loss. As we age, maintaining muscle mass is very important. - DD Team

I understand that Allulose naturally stimulates the Glp1. Is this true?

Lost 12kgs with Trulicitu, the injection helps. Changed my life style but have probs with cravings or binges.

The $100/week comparison is only cost of Ozempic vs cost of KETO foods, but they still eat food while taking Ozempic so you have to add that in to the Ozempic use total cost/week and the cost of any negative side effects as well. I heard that some people get permanent digestion problems from taking Ozempic, it slows digestion not just appetite. I didn't hear enough actual side effects people have experienced on Ozempic and its weight loss cousin same medicine lower dosage than the diabetes dosage.

We're sorry to hear about the challenges you've faced, but it's commendable that you're exploring different options to manage your health. It's understandable that dietary changes like Keto might not be suitable for everyone, especially considering your experience with fat intake and the absence of a gallbladder. While Keto has worked wonders for some, it's essential to find an approach that aligns with your body's needs and preferences. At Defeat Diabetes, we create simple, tasty and nutrient-dense meals that keep us feeling fuller for longer, are our go-to recipes. What does this mean? It means plenty of veg, protein and fat in every meal. We advise eating carbohydrate foods sparingly and rather incorporating more healthy fats into your diet. We have a comprehensive list of foods Dr Brukner recommends to enjoy in plenty, moderation and more sparingly in our program As for Ozempic, it's unfortunate that you experienced side effects. It's crucial to prioritize your well-being and find solutions that work best for you, whether they involve medications or lifestyle changes. Remember, finding the right approach often involves some trial and error. It's about listening to your body, being patient with yourself, and seeking support when needed. You're not alone on this journey, and we're rooting for your success in finding what works best for you.

There's more research needed on the long-term effects of Ozempic and other GLP-1s, and what happens when you stop taking the drug, but the early indications are: • When you cease the drug you will most likely regain most or all of the weight you have lost. • As well as losing body fat you lose muscle mass. Maintaining muscle mass is hugely beneficial as we age. • Cessation of these drugs results in regain of the fat, but no reversal of muscle loss (i.e. you end up in a worse place than when you started).

Weight loss is a complex problem. I have PCOS and autoimmune Hashimoto's thyroiditis. I have tried low carb and keto with very little success. I can see why some people turn to this drug for help.

Eating should be as nature intended, instinctive. There is no such thing as dietetics in nature, animals eats what they have always eaten. Species specific species appropriate food. Humans are no different, so why is there a problem. Our species appropriate diet is the flesh and associated fat of mainly large ruminant animals. We have evolved as humans and pre humans through positive natural selection to be obligate hypercarnivores carnivores. Dont believe this nonsense that we are omnivores. My answer to anybody who says we are, is this....one would never question the fact that dogs and cats are carnivores would you??? Yet they consume copious quantities of kibble each day...yes wheat based rubbish. So are they automatically omnivores. No. At the trophic level we are apex predators. Top of the food chain. Our stomach baseline cavity ph is 1.5 to 2...that is akin to lions and hyenas and vultures etc. Its even lower than a dog. Why because we are adapted to eat meat and mainly meat. There is no other reason for such a highly acidic environment. Our primate friends dont come even close in that department. They obtain most of their energy as Fat not carbs...through fermentation of their fibre producing short chain fatty acids. Which macronutrient does a humble cows mainly live off..FAT..and then protein. Fat and protein are essential. So essential that we will die without it. Carbs are so dangerous that the human takes control and does everything it can to remove it from our circulation. It does best when its in control making it as ingesting it is an absolute disaster and at the core of about 80 to 90 percent of non communicable disease. I hope you have learnt something. Stay away from carbs at all costs. That means, everything plant based. Everything!

@@maricamaas2326 humans have eaten predominately a meat based diet for 350000 and as pre humans up to 4 mill years. Nitrogen isotopic testing shows this to be the case. Positive natural selection has preserved the natural stomach cavity ph of 1.5 for humans. Only species that have a ph this low are highly adapted to consuming meat. There is no other reason but that apart from protecting us from bacteria which would have been the case as we were scavengers feasting on rotting flesh. This is fact. Yes vegetation was consumed during lean times but nothing like what we buy at the greengrocer today which is genetically manufactured purely for profit. Humans can eat only a few plants in the grand scheme of things as most are highly toxic and will kill us or make us very ill. Very plant that we can consume in todays world came about because our ancestors experimented with their lives. There was no other way especially before fire was invented. Our ancestors sacrificed their lives in the pursuit of handing down generation after generation what was 'safe' to consume. No plant is actually safe for human consumption. Yes we can consume them but it comes at a cost. Its full of anti nutrients, and a host of other nasties, eg hormonal disruptors and the list goes on. The actual vitamin and mineral content absorbed is very different to what we read in nutritional profiles of vegetables and fruits. Fruit contains fructose the worst of all sugars. The human body has not metabolic need for fructose. If it does produce it via glucose conversion its done because the person is in a severe metabolic disease state.
