I have had a bad reception when I once posted about WFPB diets and have not bothered to post anymore. I do wish to get into arguments with anyone. The only thing I can say is that a WFPB diet worked for me and also for several other people that I have subsequently come to know. It is not for...

I was a vegetarian but when I was diagnosed with T2, I looked at various options available to me: 1. As a vegetarian, LCHF was extremely difficult to follow. For a carnivore this is probably the best diet for controlling T2. 2. Fasting was an option but I do not have the will power to go...

I take vitamin b12 and vitamin d supplements. These are important if you are on a vegan diet.

I was an unhealthy vegetarian when I was first diagnosed with T2. My HBA1C was 94. I took Metformin for 2 weeks and then stopped to go an a WHOLE food Plant based (WFPB) diet. I lost a lot of weight and my HBA1C dropped to 43 about 7 months later and down to 37 after another 6 months. I do not...

No fight. I am just reporting what worked for me. A lot of people seem to be concentrating on controlling the symptoms of T2 (elevated blood sugar) which in the short term can be achieved by a low carb diet and/or medication. I was more interested in not taking any medication and a permanent...

I had the same problem until I switched to whole carbs only. I have noticed that my blood sugar was spiking when I was eating refined or highly processed foods but not when I changed to whole foods. Please note that when I said that I was bulking up my salad with beans, etc., the carb was a...

Yes. I should have said that it worked for me and that does not mean it will work for everyone. I need to lose some weight so I am also going to try the 5:2 diet.

Search online for whole food plant based to learn what is allowed and what is not allowed. Essentialy you follow a vegan diet in which you only eat whole foods and avoid refined foods. I start the day with a large smoothie made of 3-5 different fruits and some green leaves like kale or...

Your GP is one of the very few that is giving correct advice. I changed my diet to 100% WHOLE food plant based and reversed my T2 diabetes in less than 1 year. I started with HBA1C of 94 and brought it down to 37 one year later. I took Metformin for a couple of weeks at the start and then...

I now eat mostly organic foods. My diet is 100% vegan whole food plant based so nothing processed or refined. I eat a lot or fruits. I start the day with a fruit and green leaves smoothie and snack on fruits until lunch time. I usually have a salad for lunch. It will be a large salad as I...

Thanks

6.4 this morning. Not on any medication. Just controlling through high fibre whole plant diet. Good news on HBA1C result of 43 which has dropped from 94 7 months ago.
