November 2021 my HgbA1c was 7.2. In January 2022 I saw a KZread video from Beat Diabetes followed by one from Dr Ken Berry. I decided then to adopt a very low carb way of eating. By September my HgbA1c was 5.3 and I had reduced Metformin ER from 2000mg to 500mg. I had also stopped my weekly Trulicity 1.5mg injections. Of course I was checking my blood sugar before and after meals as well as fasting so I knew I could safely taper my meds. I am now off all meds and my last HgbA1c in January 2023 was 5.2

​@@icecreamladydriver1606 Check out Dr. Ken Berry He goes against the grain of big food / big pharma. Promotes keto & carnivore proper human diets. I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. Just watch some of his videos here on YT. Very enlightening.

I was diagnosed with prediabetes of 6.1 back in January. I weighed 224 and I’m 6’2. Currently check my sugar daily and down to 192lbs with a fasting sugar Level now between 80-90. And after dinner around 100-120. Slowly getting it back to normal I hope I’ll know when I get rechecked. Also went from 20mg of blood pressure medicine daily to zero meds and run around 115/75 now

I dropped my AIC from 11.4 to 5.1 and lost 132 lbs in the process of turning my T2D around. I did this in under a year and have maintained this healthy lifestyle for 20 months. I know many say they’ve reversed their T2D but I prefer to say it’s in remission because I know that if I don’t stay on top of my T2D it can come roaring back again and I never want to live that way again.

How on earth did you do this?

I was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes April 12, 2023. My A1c was 8.5. I’ve made some changes in my eating habits which includes laying off sodas and snacks as well as a thirty minute walk after dinner . I also take 500 ml of metforrmin. My numbers are usually in the 80s or 90s, but rarely go past 111. Of course these numbers are usually a fasting number in the morning and a closing number in the evening. Even when I was doing a midday measurement, my numbers mostly stayed within this range. I suppose this is progress, but I’m still early in this new journey and still have lots to learn.

My A1c 15.6 when I was diagnosed with diabetes due to my love for juices. When I discovered that I had diabetes, I was literally going blind. I have been hovering 5.6 to 5.8 for the past several years now...I walk about 10K to 30K steps a day.

One month ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes my cholesterol what's 200 and my A1C was 6.5. I know what got me in trouble it was cake cookies and ice cream which I have stopped eating. I am new to this disease and I want to thank you for educating me on it. I am struggling on what to eat on a daily basis i am eating salads with either chicken, pork chop or steak. What else can I have that will not hurt me. So far my 4-5 blood counts have been between 80-95 MD/DL. Thank you for your educational videos.

I was diagnosed a year ago last April, I was at 93 mmol. Prescribed metformin starting low and increasing to the max. I was also diagnosed with haemochromatosis. Now off all diabetes meds, just on ramipril and simvastatin for blood pressure and cholesterol. My latest A1c was 42 mmol without meds, however I have managed this without any support team, the doctor who diagnosed me left and there is no permanent replacement, only locums. No dietician, no endocrinologist, no training offered, just two URLs to look at. The diabetes nurse didn't give me any target figures, just said I had no need to test, it seems the NHS thinks that an annual A1c test is all that is needed. I wasn't happy with that and bought a glucometer and once they stopped my metformin I decided to spend more money on a CGM to teach myself what I can and shouldn't eat. An expensive decision but I seem to have my type 2 diabetes under control, for now anyway. I do feel thathere in the country in the UK there isn't enough support and am so glad that Facebook groups and KZread exist, as long as you can pick out the good info. from the bad you can educate yourself and keep on top of things.

You have been such a help to me with this video! I’ve been having a hard time, trying to figure out where my levels should actually be.

I have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes some two years ago, but let it slip because of the confusing information on the net, invluding all those warnings about metformin. Now I had a level of 250 and a HgbA1c of 7,5. Now of course insulin and diet change etc. I wish I had a better explanation two years ago and a measurement device to really understand how sugar works in my body.

This is the best information I have received since I was told I was diabetic 5 years ago. I have the crappiest insurance plan there is in America. The local health department will not take the insurance, and I must travel to the next county to seek medical help. There is no diabetic care team for me; I am on my own. When the time comes, they will not chop my feet off; I would rather be dead. Thank you for this video. I will follow this as closely as I can.

You could be eating too many carbs before bed, or taking supplements that cause hypoglycemia. Get a Continous glucose monitor. Dont take ascorbic acid

I'm 28 years old my blood sugar is 91 is it possible that I have diabetes If I experience some symptoms of diabetes such as numbness at night,itching despite this blood sugar level I have?

Definitely ask your physician to check more than just fasting levels. An A1c test can give you much better insight, especially with symptoms. But those symptoms may be coming from other reasons as well.

great thanks I brought my a1c down to 5.3

I joined the club for type 2 , they precribe me 500 mg of Metamorphin in the morning and one taken before bed . It made me feel so thirsty throughout the day drinking tons of water . I reduce the intake of only 500mg. and that did the trick , still thirsty , but not as Bad as before . I am looking to replace it with Berbidine . and see if that is better for me .

My A1C is 9.7. Just found out. How bad is that

Wonderful info. Maybe better video without music.

So glad you liked it! And yes...my more recent videos I got rid of the background music :)

This is such useful information and I really needed to know this. But I just can’t cope with the load unnecessary background piano music! 😖 Even if there subtitles I would have watched till the end, but 2 minutes in and I’m getting a headache!

My heart just keeps thanking you and thanking you Dr Igudia for all you have done for me, you gave me your words that you could heal any sickness or disease, thank you for permanently curing me of my Type 2 Diabetes you are amazing.

Sometimes it’s high in the morning due to lack of sleep. Otherwise it’s manageable. Is this normal

Yes! Lack of sleep increases insulin resistance and stress, which is why your BS runs higher. I have a free 5-Day sleep challenge you may want to try to help :)

Yes that is an indication of pre diabetes or diabetes. Seek a doctor. Dont eat bananas or any fruit unless it’s dragon fruit and small piece . You need oils proteins and small amount of carbs in the am. Get a scale and invest in a CGM if you can’t afford one get a glucose monitor. Seek real medical advice since I am not a doctor but some one with pre diabetes who invested in a CGM

my fasting levels are between 4 and 4.5. that cool?

I've never been diagnosed with diabetes but I've been noticing that I've been peeing a lot lately... like 10-15 times in a day! I got a blood sugar test kit this morning and my level was 302mg and I hadn't ate anything yet and only drank half a bottle of water. Now idk if I should go see a doctor or just try to cut out sugar in my rinks and food.

Definitely call your doctor and see them right away. That could be a very dangerous blood sugar level if correct. Don't wait
