Ep 90Truly Reversing Insulin Resistance & Type 2 Diabetes with Simon Hill from Plant Proof - E90
In Episode 90 Simon Hill of The Plant Proof Podcast had us on his show to chat about Diabetes (Type 1, 1a, Pre, and Type 2) and the role that nutrition plays on insulin resistance. We go through the body of scientific literature and explain what causes insulin resistance and how to actually reverse it. Specifically we cover: Our personal journeys with Type 1 Diabetes Pathophysiology of Insulin Resistance Difference between low carb ketogenic type diets for Insulin Resistance and High Carb Low Fat diets Why Keto diets can promote insulin resistance (poorer ability to handle carbohydrates) What truly reversing insulin resistance actually means - specifically the the difference between reversing insulin resistance and managing blood glucose control Common diabetic complications and why reversing insulin resistance is so important Nutrition for reversing insulin resistance & diabetic complications (the practical stuff) and so much more Strap yourselves in this is a long one (2.5 hours) but we guarantee by the end of it you will have learned so much about Diabetes and finally understand the mechanism that causes insulin resistance and how to reverse it and improve health outcomes. Not only is this understanding important for people with Diabetes but really anyone looking to better their health, particularly anyone who is overweight (millions of people have undiagnosed pre diabetes). Insulin resistance is a spectrum and eating to promote optimal glucose tolerance means you will be able to enjoy some of the most healthful food groups in the world associated with longevity. If you have any comments or questions, Simon, (@plant_proof) and we, Robby and Cyrus (@masteringdiabetes) would love to hear from you. Please tag us on social media or leave a quick review on iTunes.

Ep 88Hydrogenation vs. Saturation vs. Unsaturation – All Fat is Not Created Equal – E88
In the world of nutrition we hear about what we should eat and what not to eat, how much to eat and so on and so forth. The internet is ripe with nutrition information and voices that contradict each other, especially when it comes to the consumption of dietary fat. We are one of those voices trying to educate you on the importance of eating a low-fat, plant based, whole food diet. The consumption of excess fat can lead to the deposition or the accumulation of excess fat inside of your liver and muscle and how that can impair the ability of insulin to do it's job and when that happens you increase the risk for the development of insulin resistance. Today we are going to do a deep dive in to different types of fat inside of your diet because the truth is that all fat is not created equal. The fat that you eat comes in either the form of a trans-fat, saturated fat or as unsaturated fat and they all play diverse roles in your body. They can either promote chronic diseases or help reverse chronic diseases. It's a mistake to lump all fat together and say fat is bad for you and that is why we recorded this podcast episode, to discuss the nuances of this topic. If you are looking for more information please visit our website at https://www.masteringdiabetes.org to learn evidence-based science and get free recipes and listen to free podcast episodes. You can also watch videos of people living with all types of diabetes and you can hear them tell their inspirational stories of improving their diabetes health for the first time in their life.

Ep 69Part 3: How Carbohydrates Actually Behave in Your Blood, Muscles, and Liver (Get Your Best A1c Workshop) - E69
In this episode you'll learn what makes whole carbohydrates and refined carbohydrates fundamentally different than each other, and why this simple distinction can improve your overall health dramatically. No joke. In today's world, if carbohydrates were on trial, they'd be given a life sentence for harming millions of people around the world. But is that really true? What does science actually say about the role of carbohydrates when living with diabetes (and why should you care)? It's simple. Whole carbohydrate-rich foods are some of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, and minimizing or avoiding them can seriously impact your long-term health. But eating them while controlling your blood glucose like a champ will actually improve your overall health. It's true. So sit back, grab a mango (or 5), and enjoy!
Ep 68Part 2: How Insulin Resistant Are You? The Opportunity for Transformation is Here (Get Your Best A1c Workshop) - E68
We've got another lesson for you…this one covers a lot of ground, and teaches you some easy-to-understand biochemistry which can change the way you think about your overall health. This lesson covers the truth about the true cause of insulin resistance (and it may not be what you think). In this video, we'll discuss: The true cause of insulin resistance (Answer: fatty foods) Why insulin is not the enemy (Answer: it's 100% necessary for life) Does insulin cause weight gain? (Answer: no) How a single high-fat meal impacts insulin resistance (Answer: it blocks insulin signaling) How to figure out your level of insulin resistance (Answer: take the insulin resistance quiz) Unfortunately, millions of people around the world don't know what actually causes their blood glucose to fluctuate, and this information helped us both achieve non-diabetic A1c values and can do the same for you. It's already happened to more than 3,000 of our members. The video covers a lot of ground, including the root cause of high A1c values and blood glucose fluctuations. Once you understand this information and how it applies to YOUR body, you'll set yourself up to achieve your best A1c ever.

C-peptide — The Secret Test That Saved Anna's Life - E64
C-peptide test is an important test that is largely unknown. When people think of the most important test for diabetes, they usually think of the A1c test. But a c-peptide test is actually more important in many cases because it can help a person find out if they are living with type 1.5 diabetes or if they are living with insulin dependent type 2 diabetes. C-peptide is commonly used for the very clear distinction between type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. C-peptide is released into the blood as a byproduct of the production of insulin. This substance can be a game changer for many people living with diabetes. In this video you will see how Ann discovering her c-peptide saved her life. We have seen this happen in other clients as well. If you don't know your c-peptide level and are having trouble controlling your blood glucose, it may be a good idea to get it tested.
