Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR DR. JASON FUNG • “The doctor who invented intermittent fasting.” —The Daily Mail “Dr. Fung reveals how [type 2 diabetes] can be prevented and also reversed using natural dietary methods instead of medications … This is an important and timely book. Highly recommended.” —Dr. Mark Hyman, author of The Pegan Diet “Dr. Jason Fung has done it again. … Get this book!” —Dr. Steven R. Gundry, author of The Plant Paradox Everything you believe about treating type 2 diabetes is wrong. Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease—a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this groundbreaking book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, Dr. Fung explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease. The only way to treat type 2 diabetes effectively, he argues, is proper dieting and intermittent fasting—not medication. “The Diabetes Code is unabashedly provocative yet practical ... a clear blueprint for everyone to take control of their blood sugar, their health, and their lives.”—Dr. Will Cole, author of Intuitive Fasting

Most diabetics don't know how to control diabetes, and live with elevated A1c level for decades despite trying hard a variety of oral medications, despite the insulin use, and many trips to diabetes specialists.Even the doctors, endocrinologists and board-certified specialists are not equipped with the appropriate knowledge and training skills to transmit the real concept of controlling diabetes to their patients' minds, except leaving their patients in a dilemma of uncontrolled diabetes.The doctors don't teach their patients how to understand the hemoglobin A1c chart with clear concept. As a matter of fact, the secret to controlling diabetes lies in understanding the hemoglobin chart. And nobody ever told you about it, and nobody ever taught you that secret!.Your hemoglobin A1c is not normal because you are not injecting enough insulin at appropriate times except some scheduled doses recommended by your doctor or nurse, and you are not exercising enough. And your doctors have been giving you full freedom to live like the way you want with unhealthy lifestyle.You are not monitoring enough and not researching enough to understand your elevated after-meal glucose spikes, and you lack fine tuning skills.You are partying too much and eating too much with your family and friends every now and then. Your temptation to eat something delicious would lead to loss of control on dietary guidelines, causing you to overeat delicious foods that are made from processed and refined foods. You have been on oral medications for a long time, and did not think about switching to insulin shots because nobody convinced you that insulin is the best medicine to treat diabetes.You lack self-efficacy, self-discipline, motivation, and willpower to achieve normal hemoglobin A1c level.

Hemoglobin A1c is a parameter that directly reveals the degree of "diabetes control" during the preceding 90 days. Red blood cells live in the bloodstream 60 to 90 days. Every 90 days new red blood cells are born. Hemoglobin is a protein molecule that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's cells wherever it is needed. While the blood circulates, depending on how high the blood glucose level is, a certain amount of glucose is attached to the hemoglobin to form A1c. So, by measuring the hemoglobin A1c level, it is possible to know the average blood glucose level and the degree to which it has been controlled over the preceding 90 days.Blood glucose reaches its highest level immediately after the consumption of a major meal. The elevated glucose levels dominate in and largely contribute to establishing the average glucose level over 90 days. After-meal glucose levels therefore must be lowered and brought to normal within 1 or 2 hours of the consumption of every major meal in order to control and bring hemoglobin A1c close to its normal value. At the same time, the insulin dose must be minimized because too much insulin causes hypoglycemia and constricts arteries, leading to heart attack and coronary heart disease. Too much insulin also stimulates the brain so that a person feels hungry and eats more and causes the liver to manufacture fat in the belly. Too little insulin on the other hand would not be enough to cover the entire meal and to maintain normal glucose levels. An optimum insulin dose is therefore crucial. Insulin is synthesized in such a way that it acts more quickly and much more effectively with exercise. After-meal exercise, either treadmill or walking, should be introduced into the diabetes control plan in order to burn fat, lose calories and optimize both the insulin dose and insulin action. After-meal exercise minimizes the insulin dose and maximizes insulin action and prevents after-meal glucose levels from rising too high, thus keeping diabetes under tight control. The Good News: Consistent, serious and rigorous efforts towards lowering after-meal glucose levels over a period of 3 to 6 months gradually lowers the hemoglobin A1c level of a diabetic person to its normal value, even if the diabetes was poorly controlled in the past. Thereafter, continued efforts with a reasonable attention to insulin, food and exercise are necessary to tightly control diabetes. The author of this book, having been diabetic for 20 years, began to conduct diligent experiments to study the combined influence of insulin dose and after-meal exercise on after-meal blood glucose levels, and successfully lowered after-meal glucose levels continuously and on a daily basis. For a selected major meal, the Humalog insulin dose was cut by 50 to 60% through extensive research and optimization. The hemoglobin A1c level dropped from a very high-risk 12% to a stunning 6.5% (Refer to Table 7.5) and since then has remained normal for more than a year. Diabetes has been permanently controlled!

Download or read book Mastering Diabetes written by Cyrus Khambatta, PhD and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times bestseller. A groundbreaking method to master all types of diabetes by reversing insulin resistance. Current medical wisdom advises that anyone suffering from diabetes or prediabetes should eat a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet. But in this revolutionary book, Cyrus Khambatta, PhD, and Robby Barbaro, MPH, rely on a century of research to show that advice is misguided. While it may improve short-term blood glucose control, such a diet also increases the long-term risk for chronic diseases like cancer, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, chronic kidney disease, and fatty liver disease. The revolutionary solution is to eat a low-fat plant-based whole-food diet, the most powerful way to reverse insulin resistance in all types of diabetes: type 1, type 1.5, type 2, prediabetes, and gestational diabetes. As the creators of the extraordinary and effective Mastering Diabetes Method, Khambatta and Barbaro lay out a step-by-step plan proven to reverse insulin resistance-the root cause of blood glucose variability- while improving overall health and maximizing life expectancy. Armed with more than 800 scientific references and drawing on more than 36 years of personal experience living with type 1 diabetes themselves, the authors show how to eat large quantities of carbohydrate-rich whole foods like bananas, potatoes, and quinoa while decreasing blood glucose, oral medication, and insulin requirements. They also provide life-changing advice on intermittent fasting and daily exercise and offer tips on eating in tricky situations, such as restaurant meals and family dinners. Perhaps best of all: On the Mastering Diabetes Method, you will never go hungry. With more than 30 delicious, filling, and nutrient-dense recipes and backed by cutting-edge nutritional science, Mastering Diabetes will help you maximize your insulin sensitivity, attain your ideal body weight, improve your digestive health, gain energy, live an active life, and feel the best you've felt in years.
