I have defeated diabetes! Been on insulin since 2019. Went carnivore 25th February 2024. Haven't had any insulin or metformin since that day. My HbA1c went from 56 mmol/mol in Feb to 25 mmol/mol in May. (20 - 41 is normal range, 48+ is diabetic). In that time I also lost 15kg and 6" off my waist.

As an Australian I think my Governments (State and Federal) are incompetent for not holding the health Departments to account. Health expenditure is just catastrophic, and they keep pouring money into something that is an obvious failure. I had a shock diagnosis, turned to my own research and went Keto. Wife, a lifelong vegetable eater (vegetarian for some years) who always had problems also tried Keto. Health change was fantastic. Off medication (after 30 years). Feel great, brain much clearer. Wife and I are now toying with carnivore. See our friends with problems and they are getting steadily worse yet they just think we are loonies and stick with the Doctors/food pyramid. We don't push the point at all but are somewhat surprised at their lack of interest to do their own research. Our point of view was we didn't want the course the Doctors were setting us on and a drastic change was worth a 3 month experimentation. Was very surprised at how quickly we started feeling better.

Hi. Im also Australian, 63. Went carnivore diet a year ago. Most profound decision of my life. Effortlessly lost 75lbs, cured arthritis, ibs, gastric reflux, depression, anxiety, prostate problems, joint pain, sleep apnoea, inflammation, diabetes and a host of other health problems. My inflammation markers are incredibly low, and my calcium score is zero. My testosterone is through the roof. My brain is calm and sharp. Im back in the workplace now shaming guys half my age. Life changing. Life saving. Ive kicked all my meds and regained my life and my power. When i am convinced of the benefits of a product, i become an excellent salesman, but i have only convinced 2 people that i know to join in. The others, despite watching me transform, think that im crazy and about to die. My daughter followed my lead on Carnivore, and put her new baby daisy on Carnivore solids from 4mths. She took to it instinctively and enthusiastically. Her growth and development was literally off the charts. She walked at 8mths and runs at one. At her first birthday party I watched her trying to get out the window to see her dog. She looks and moves like a 2 year old. Awesome.

Children can probably deal with some carbohydrates as their growth and high metabolism will normally deal with the bad fuel before it can cause too much damage. However, standard western diets are overloading even children's ability to cope with carbohydrates. Probably the worst is cereal for breakfast which starts the daily cycle of peaks and crashes of glucose and insulin.

Not true in Australia, but the sad truth is that most doctors don't receive any nutrition training and so don't feel qualified to discuss dietary interventions with patients. They end up having to refer patients to dietitians. Not all dietitians are on board with low carb as a tool for type 2 diabetes remission (despite the overwhelming evidence and Diabetes Australia also endorsing this approach - and being a proud partner of Defeat Diabetes). However, we have a great directory of low carb health professionals that also offer telehealth if you're looking for support! --> www.defeatdiabetes.com.au/resources/expert/find-a-local-low-carb-health-professional/

Hi there - for management of type 2 diabetes, the evidence is in, and a low carb approach is acknowledged by peak bodies globally (including the American Diabetes Association, Diabetes UK and Diabetes Australia) as being one of three pathways to achieve better blood glucose and remission (the other two options being bariatric surgery and very low calorie diets). So there is alignment on the best tools to manage type 2 diabetes. Defeat Diabetes has now partnered with Diabetes Australia to provide a digital program for people curious about the health benefits of low carb and who want to use a dietary intervention to work towards remission.

While food does play a key role in keeping blood glucose levels within target ranges, there is also an important link between exercise and blood glucose regulation. Muscles prioritise burning glucose if its in the blood. If you're eating low carb while exercising, your body will burn fat instead for fuel. Increased muscle from exercise also boosts your body's insulin sensitivity which means your cells become more efficient at using the insulin available to process any glucose (very important for those living with type 2 diabetes). The last, but no less important, reason that exercise is important is that it releases endorphins which lower stress levels. Stress can lead to weight gain through the release of cortisol so reducing stress is always a good thing!

It is much more profitable to produce grains than it is to produce animal products.
