When is my doctor going to listen to this? I'm doing this on my own. Videos like this are my saviour. 67 year old,Type 2 diabetic for 10 years, off all meds Hba1c 37. Thank you Dr Hallberg.
Whilst the keto diet does reduce blood glucose, it does so simply by flatlining your intake. As Dr Hallberg openly admitted in the Q&A section, the moment someone eats some carbohydrate, they're back to square one. This is hardly the definition of reversal. The problem is that Keto addresses the symptom (high blood glucose) not the cause. The scientifically proven cause of T2D, which has been known for several decades, is intramyocellular fat. Fat globules in the muscle cells (as well as the liver cells) prevent insulin (of which there is plenty) from triggering the cells to absorb glucose from the blood. The glucose now has nowhere to go and sits in the blood - high levels over time lead to tissue damage. This talk by two highly qualified diabetes experts nicely explains the situation. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-enIvfC985U8.html Good luck!
I'm 72 and feel 35 again. No carbs, grains, wheat, sugar. I'm almost a 100% carnivor. My energy is through the roof. And I have a woody in the morning again. I know TMI.
Sarah is one reason I'm low carb/ keto. Have gone from 6.4 to 5.4 a1c lost from a size 20 to a 14. I'm 70 and wish that Doctors would at least talk about this instead of pushing WW or a diabetic diet. My labs are much better. It's not hard to follow and incorporate into your life.
@@irenehoimes7186 when you start keto eating, in couple days cravings are lower and in 3 weeks totally gone. I was a sugar addicted but on keto I don’t need any sweets
Fantastic! I knew I was in trouble and was Pandemic Comfort Eating in the beginning of Pandemic. I chose Virta in May 2020 I private pay and am very frustrated with regular Primary and Endo wanting me on 3 meds. I was 13.5 A1C and a year later at 8. Was great in beginning and had a blow up when I broke an ankle and couldn’t do the Exercise. Started to comfort eating and blew up my weight and glucose numbers started creeping back up. I am lucky I haven’t had complications but on the precipice. I am back at it renewed with commitment to unfatten my pancreas and keep up Exercise that really works. I will say, I got turned down for a CGM after 8 weeks of trying. My Virta doctor wrote a script for me, and even though he was not in my insurance network the pharmacy gave me a steep discount. The CGM was a game changer! It gave me the confidence I could do this, gives me detailed data on overnight activity and exactly what happens with each meal and exercise. I can not say enough how impressed I am with Sarah and the gumption to make her vision a reality, and help hundreds of thousands if not millions. There needs to be more accessible CGM’s and options. Canada already sells then over the counter. Price disparity is also ridiculas of brands on the market
True. I was diagnos last year 2022 in May, that i am diabwtic cos a1c test was 12. Then in September same year it dropped to 9. I did not take the meds prescribe at all,just do IF or keto diet. When a1c drop i told my doctor, it happen cos i change my diet and drop all meds, she went furious saying i should be on meds. Now i get higher dose and she threaten to put me on insulin jab. No education on my diet what so ever. Meds is her solution
I maybe guilty of hyperbole here, but I am willing to go out on a limb and say that Dr. Sarah Hallberg's work at Virta Health, if people thought about diet rationally and without reference to ideology or in deference to financial interests, should be the death nail to low fat dogma. The clinical evidence gleaned from her study of diabetic patients, and the demonstrable potency of the low carb diet in reducing not only A1C, but a host of other worrisome health markers, should be the impetus behind sweeping changes in the dietary advice that we dispense to the public. The only reason as to why this will not occur is because certain interest groups, due to belief systems and financial incentives, are impediments to the truth. Thank you Dr. Hallberg for this life saving work that you are doing. Thank you to the producers of this channel for giving Dr. Hallberg a platform to further give her work exposure.
My sister was fat and had pre-diabetes, and I am average and had pre-diabetes. We both used to eat low fat. I had chronic acid reflux and she had tiredness and general lethargy. We both changed to keto/low carb 2 + years ago. She lost 60+ lbs and has normal HBA1C, I stayed about the same (maybe lost a couple lbs) and also have normal HBA1C. I no longer have acid reflux (at all) and she is like an energizer bunny (lol). I throw my hat into the low carb ring and both of us will keep eating this way forever. Edit to add: I had my gall bladder removed (surgeon blamed low fat which I thought was weird) but i have no issues eating this diet, but YMMV.
@@BritGirlJay Thank you for sharing your story. You belong to a growing group of people whose experiences really undermine the credibility of low fat diets. The fact that your physician blames low fat diets for your gallbladder maybe a sign that the keto message is penetrating mainstream medicine
You’re dead right. Unfortunately, there are very powerful forces trying to remove healthy red meat from our diets. Essentially, they want us all on a slave diet, i.e. vegan diet.
@Michael Carney Unfortunately, ppl love hearing good news about their bad habits. They typically gravitate to these unhealthy diets bc most are incapable of eating a truly healthy PB diet. It is sad.
@Michael Carney Let me ask you a personal question. I like cutting right to the chase. Exactly what kind of a diet do you eat Michael and why do you eat this way? I am curious.
Excellent presentation. Your lecture should be mandatory material for diabetes education. I was tired of hearing from medical professionals that you have to eat carbs for diabetes management. I am on a low carb diet now and my a1c is in a normal range and my blood lipids have shown improvement
I can understand given a medicine model carbs cover your liability. If you are continually giving multiple drugs that rise hypoglycemic events AND. You don’t have resources to support a patients need to transition and stick with. She really is revolutionary in thinking! She needs more recognition by the industry before it is too late to thank her in person.
I believe I sabotaged my brother with the food I was buying I may have even sabotaged myself, and so put my bloodline at risk I pray with all my heart that we can reverse this. Thank you
Thank you, such a pleasure to listen to Dr Sarah Hallberg - I love learning from the leadership group that I have discovered over the last 3 to 4 years and I think I almost have the equivalent of a university degree - lol!
A real low fat diet is not 30% fat but 15% fat so you obtained different results than the ones shown here and there is No calorie restriction. Just eat until you are satisfied is the motto. It’s not a deprivation diet.
Hard to believe this information has been out so long and yet nothing has changed regarding what my Drs. have told me. Our healthcare industry are failing us folks. Thank goodness there are still some good Drs. out there. Just need to get the word out.
I wish that the RU-vid description of lectures such as this would include a link to the slide deck and/or links to all the studies referenced in the lecture.
I think that's up to whoever uploads the lecture to also upload on their website or something... that information then link it, I don't think it's up to youtube to do that.
Thanks for the video content! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried - Patlarny Sugar Outcome Principle (google it)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for reversing diabetes minus the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my GF finally got cool results with it.
If you are looking for link to this talk? Just hit share then hold finger over blue link, it will give you an option to copy. Then you can paste it anywhere. Capture the study and lead researcher and date if you can see- pub med or Google scholar can try a search and likely find
artificial sweeteners may not spike insulin...but the liver has to deal with them in some other way. If insulin spikes are your hyper focus vs. liver load, your carb-like chemicals are just fine....until they are not. Defend and protect the liver...it's the true source of life.

Karima Ogden I read the article... how devastating... loosing one of the great minds in this field. Prayers for a miraculous healing in the name of Jesus Christ.🙏❤️🙏
"This would not be a partisan issue!" I find that very optimistic. However, the fact that Hallberg paid attention to the experimental withdrawals as much as the subjects who completed the experiment really impresses me.
Yes! Joe Rogan, despite being a layperson in medicine, is quite astute, and asks some very interesting questions from the researchers that he has on his show. All you have to watch to see this in action is his interview with Dr. Rhonda Patrick and Dr. Peter Attia. I hope Rogan does invite Dr. Hallberg on his show. Given her recent contributions to the dietary research literature, she more than deserves the recognition and exposure.
I need better understanding on eatable fat. Red Meat, Nuts, what guidance would you have? Thanks. (Please don't say Avocado - the miracle food I can't stand.. : ) Thanks So Much For Not going with the with business as usual mentality!
Large quantities of fat is the very last thing that anyone with T2D should be consuming..... Whilst the keto diet does reduce blood glucose, it does so simply by flatlining your glucose intake. As Dr Hallberg openly admitted in the Q&A section (43mins), the moment someone eats some carbohydrate, they're back to square one. She tries hard to say that it's not a cure but a reversal. This is hardly the definition of reversal, since the very definition of the word means to take back to the previous state. That would be no diabetes then... The problem is that Keto addresses the symptom (high blood glucose) not the cause. The scientifically proven cause of T2D, which has been known for several decades, is intramyocellular fat. Fat globules in the muscle cells (as well as the liver cells) prevent insulin (of which there is plenty) from triggering the cells to absorb glucose from the blood. The glucose now has nowhere to go and sits in the blood - high levels over time lead to tissue damage.

I've stopped telling my type 2 diabetic friend anything... she finds an excuse to not change her eating habits.... shell try cutting out carbs for 2 days, fhen complains she gets headaches and her sugars are too low, so she drinks Coke
excellent Dr Sarah. as a nurse that used to work for an endocrinologist, I can tell you, Dr Sarah speaks the truth and LCHF diet works very well. the diet works best for many if they can plan ahead, cook ahead so that if they need something quick, it will be there. also, you might need more salt at the beginning--do not fear salt. Now, on another subject, you need to investigate the pros and cons of vaccines. you may think you know vaccines... but even as a nurse, I did not. I knew the pro's because I grew up with all the pro vaccine advice from all the medical establishment, I was fully vaccinated with 2 vaccines. vaccines were something you just did, no questions asked. I have since had my mind changed with all the new evidence. vaccines of today are not what they used to be. vaccines are formulated very differently, not in a good way, and the numbers of vaccines recommended, especially to children, soldiers and the elderly, have skyrocketed. vaccines are the one thing developed to stimulate the immune system that could very well be the cause of the auto immune problems we see today. veterans are coming down with gulf war syndrome, even when they never were stationed in the gulf. kids are coming down cancers that were only seen in people age 50 and up. the elderly are telling me, " I was ok until I got that flu shot". I've learned that our regulatory agencies are not protecting the people's health as they should be. Instead the CDC, FDA, HHS, NIH and the WHO are in bed with big pharma. I knew this already when it came to regular drugs like Vioxx, thalidomide, phen phen, but when it came to vaccines I thought, " no way, they wouldn't do that and cover up the new evidence". I like many others, especially health care professionals, have this sort of theocracy of vaccines. (you could also call it a cult of vaccines--because if you can't question the science without being called a heretic, then you have a cult) from public health drs and nurses to family physicians and nurses, we've all been trained to regard vaccines as essential and safe. what we failed to observe is that Big Pharma now controls what is published in our training books and in medical journals. so we read only what big pharma wants us to. and big pharma has its tentacles wrapped around the media, politicians, schools, hospitals, clinics. So I urge you to reconsider your thinking on vaccines and investigate the exploding problems that come with vaccination.
If you are insulin resistant, weight is probably not your primary concern. It is probably visceral fat (organ fat, fatty liver, etc.) The higher your fat intake, the more satiety you will have. You want to maintain weight at the start of the diet? Probably not possible. Increase protein can cause a weight loss stall for many on a keto diet, so increased protein may be a way to be in a moderate level of ketosis.
@@rustybolts8953 It IS true. an article Dr. Hallberg wrote www.tampabay.com/opinion/2020/07/05/im-a-doctor-with-stage-4-cancer-during-a-pandemic-column/ And NO just having St 4 Cancer does NOT mean you are in a hospital all the time. It means the cancer has spread throughout the body ( metastasized).
I'm in the UK (born in 76) and I only use KG. Pounds and ounces are pretty much alien to me. If I need to, I do the conversion in my head, you basically just double the KG weight to get the lbs.
Whole food plant based diet, read Mastering Diabetes by Cyrus Khambatta PHD. His is a type one diabetic. If you want to live a long healthy life that’s the book to read.
The only disease state for which keto has ever been used as a medical treatment is childhood epilepsy. However, the side affects of keto are far from good. For Parkinson's, I don't know if this info may be of help: nutritionfacts.org/2013/08/29/treating-parkinsons-disease-with-diet/ I wish you luck.
Omg what happened to her? Just a few years ago I came across a video of her and didn't think much about her until this video shows up in my recommended just now and she looks like she's aged 15 or 20 years. Is she sick? She's younger than I am. I'm worried about her. 😔
The first time I saw her in 2016 she had a little more weight on her, but was no we're close to being fat. I think she just went full keto and lost weight. If you teach it, I guess you should be doing it. I was a little taken aback when I saw her new slim self, I too hope she is well.
I too had this problem and I started my treatment with Planet Ayurveda. Now I am fine. So, if anyone is facing such kind of problem or any other health-related problem. You should go to Planet Ayurveda.
I think you have mis represented the recommended diet from ADA. I have just visited their website and they recommend carbohudrates from whole foods, and no junk foods. THis is common knowledge from the many studies. Keto is only a short term fix and leads to poor health if followed for a longer period of time. I suggest everybody should look at the science. Thank you, Paul
People can reverse diabetes on a low fat diet and eat carbs with no problem. They really have reverse diabetes which is a carbohydrate intolerance. They are no longer carb intolerant.
I am still trying to find out about Welchol and keto. I am familiar with Feldman and others. I am still high risk with the remnant cholesterol equation.
Liza Kiesling what country do you live in? You perhaps should consult a doctor in this space - there are two I highly recommend and I believe both are contactable via internet for consultation. Dr Ford Brewer and Dr Ken Berry both in USA. I hope this will help you.
@kjmalone17 "High LDL is normal on Keto" Yes and we know it causes atherosclerosis. In fact, we have a scientific consensus that LDL causes atherosclerosis. From systematic reviews from genetic, epidemiologic, and clinical studies. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28444290/
Liza KIesling I noticed you have nor received a proper answer to our question. I never heard about that drug before so I decided to run a search and what I found made me decide to write a reply to you. First, I am no medically trained person but going by my reading you should be very careful with this decision. The Idea that cholesterol need to be lowered has been debunked, but I do not mention what your levels are so no one can give you any proper information. I'd suggest you talk to a doctor who is well acquainted with the new safe cholesterol levels. I'd suggest Dr Ken Berry MD because I see a video of his on the right side of this video, but do it soon. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6S6V9jEuX7c.html
I disagree on one thing. T2D is diagnosed when the liver starts to make too much glucose not because your pancreas stops making insulin. At that stage your pancreas is probably making 3 to 5 times normal insulin. Normal in my opinion is about 5 fasting and below 60 after a meal. This is what Dr Kraft believed from his data.
You're diagnosed when your pancreas can no longer produce enough insulin to keep blood sugar in check. At the same time your cells are becoming insulin resistance, so again high blood sugar shows. What they should do is insulin fasting test which would indicate the road to diabetes up to a decade earlier. Google Ben Bikman phd, he researches insulin snd can tell you all about it.
@@leann5213 It is not keto...better than Keto (aka Atkins) but not nearly as healthy as a whole foods, plant-based diet. That is the healthiest diet a human can eat for health and longevity. Had Harper done this, he could have perhaps avoided the HA despite the bad genetics.👍
His condition was hereditary and his health was actually the reason given by doctors that he survived. To suggest his diet worsened his outcome is bizzare.
Low frucotse, anyone? I love my carbs as much as the next person, so I gorge on rice/pasta/potatoes/bread. I just avoid fructose. Perfect bloodwork for two years now.
The current standards for "perfect" blood work leave a whole lot to be desired. It was not until I found Dr. Hallberg and her colleagues that I realized why my chronic diseases were progressing in spite of my doctors being totally unable to explain why.......
Man, she got it all wrong. It’s amazing she is calling upon science when she is not citing the science. With a ketogenic diet, people still stay carb intolerant. Nothing solved.
What’s solved is, we, the fat gorging Americans, shouldn’t be eating the crap that we are eating. What’s solved is avoiding the complications for T2D. Neuropathy, nephrology, retinopathy etc…Apparently you’re good with 50 percent of the population being metabolically sick. And the point is, don’t start eating this crap and your chances of being T2D decreases. It’s pretty simple.
Ok. Let's get this straight.. this keto diet DOES NOT CURE INSULIN RESISTANCE. Then when the other diet pblf is mentioned by the audience at the end , it's quickly dismissed due to the one study ..look carefully at the that study . It claims that 25% fat intake is low fat???????? It may be lower fat compared to keto but it's not the low fat that Cyrus is referring to..I wish people like Sarah actually tried to study this higher carb low fat diet. I'd like to see if it would work without the requirement of it being vegan . A proper study using vegan versus animal protein but still being plant based but low fat and fruit and carbs are allowed in moderation.
@@irenehoimes7186 I imagine that what Jeffery Jeffery may be referring to is the "reversal" of T2D which she claims. By the dictionary definition, a reversal of a disease is in effect a cure. When she talks about there being no cure, this is not just disingenuous, but plain false. The keto diet will of course drop the blood glucose levels - but this is simply a reflection of the very low amount of glucose entering the body. As Dr Hallberg openly admitted in the Q&A section, the moment someone eats some carbohydrate, they're back to square one. This is hardly the definition of reversal. The problem is that Keto addresses the symptom (high blood glucose) not the cause. The scientifically proven cause of T2D, which has been known for several decades, is intramyocellular fat.
