I had nearly all of these. It culminated with a one week intensive care stay after a hemmorhagic stroke. They didn't ask once about diet, only everything else and then prescribed a blood pressure medication. I changed to a low carb and sometimes keto diet plus intermittent diet after leaving and have not been sick in any way (including head or stomach aches)in two years. My lifelong allergies and sleep apnea are gone as are any aches or pains plus waking to urinate six times a night. No mood swings. No endless gas. Lost excess weight. No more medications after first round. If anyone is wondering, cut sugars and veg oils as close to zero as you can and carbs to a low number, I just wish I had known this as a kid or as a teen.

A Year ago I was scheduled for a surgery, and my doctor wanted me to get some blood work done. I was completely floored when my fasting glucose was 355 and my A1c was 13.5. I was caught off guard because i didn't exhibit any of the classic signs for diabetes. I was considers slightly overweight (15 lbs), no blurred vision, no nerve pain, etc. For 11 months I was struggling to maintain low Glucose. 135-160 and an A1c of 7.5. I was prescribed 500mg of metformin daily, and a low carb diet. I found Dr Ekberg's videos about a month ago. And I started the Keto Diet, with intermittent fasting. Mostly 16/8 but sometimes 18/6. With the Keto Diet, I eat less, and feel more full for longer. I fast from 6:00pm to 10:00am. I take a 10 mile Bike ride 3 times a week. Well the results speak for themselves. I lost 20lbs ( Considered Healthy on the BMI scale) My daily glucose ranges 85-110, and I feel like I did in mt 20's. July 1 brings my one year anniversary of my type 2 diabetes diagnosis.

Well, last summer I started experiencing some signs of Neuropathy which sent me straight to the doctor to get some blood work done. I would experience this after a day or two of heavy socializing which included beer and high carb foods. I refused to be on Metformin and decided to make lifestyle changes. I did very strict Keto and IF for 3 months (October - December) and now do Low Carb and Hi Protein with IF of 18/6. The reason for the diet change was that I found I was losing a lot of muscle mass. I am now at the gym doing resistance training and putting more weight off. I am now down 42 pounds as of the first week of October. I am also putting muscle mass back on.

I'm someone who spent two decades feeling both exhausted and still hungry after eating, debilitating brain fog/headaches daily, IBS symptoms, frequent urination, skin tags, trouble sleeping, irritability and weight gain. My doctors even theorized I had some debilitating disease. I was given Metformin and it only made me more hungry and anxious. So I tried removing all gluten and sugar from my diet. After I stopped eating gluten and sugar, all these things went away. I don't know if dropping sugar and gluten were the silver bullet I needed. But I found that within two weeks of going off of them cold turkey, I had a lot more willpower and no headaches. With that added willpower, I was able to exercise daily and eat only fruit/vegetables/legumes/lean meat/dairy/potatoes for my meals. Which then resolved all the other problems. I experimented with trying to eat a small amount of gluten and sugar during Christmas of 2019 (dinner rolls, pie and fudge) and the symptoms instantly came back. It was like a train ran over my head, I had such a massive headache and brain fog. So I went back to eating zero gluten/sugar and the symptoms disappeared within three days. They haven't been back the whole month of January. Long story short, in my experience, getting off gluten and sugar works. Hopefully most people don't have as severe of symptoms as I did. But I'd still recommend avoiding added sugar for anyone.

Thank you very much. I'm trying to get off sugar and carbs, but when I'm stressed that's what goes into my mouth.

[@daisycorta3340]

How long did it take for u to alleviate the symptoms

[@Supremebeinglivingmybestlife]

Are there any real sugar substitutes

[@MarijkeWillemsen990]

Thank you for your very good explanation! I just want to point out I had a lot of the symptoms but nothing was done because my blood sugar was always between the normal range. Years later I heard about pre- diabetic ant that your blood sugar can still be normal but that your insulin to produce ‘ the normal’ sugar level can be way out of control, you can produce till 10 times more insulin to keep a normal blood sugar level. Also the insulin level stays high a very long time after a meal. This makes you sick (a lot of the symptoms you mention above) and gain weight. Therefore the advice from some doctors is to test not only for blood sugar level but also for insulin resistance (Kraft test). You also can test it yourself in practice: reduce dramatically the carbs and the sugars (keto) to reduce insulin production. Do you loose weight as a consequence of less insulin production? Then you had insulin resistance. Insulin is the fat storage hormone that pushes the sugar in the cells to remove it from the bloodstream, and insulin simultaneously blocks the release of fat from your fat cells. (This is logic it would be weird to have a system that stores in and out at the same time, If you lower the insulin dramatically by almost removing the sugars and the carbs, the fats can be released from storage, 17:18 you loose weight and you have proven the insulin resistance.

[@ronnelhamiel7921]

Some of this is different in women. Also stress causes a lot of these symptoms. I will agree that people need to dramatically reduce sugar intake.

This is scary. I have five in the list already. But I am glad I saw this after starting Keto with IF last week.

[@douglivingstone4285]

Problem is he may not be correct. Another theory suggests excess fat in the cells interferes with insulin signalling . Ask yourself why people on a whole food plant based diet with carbs in the 60-80 percent range have low rates of type 2 diabetes. Keto diets may just mask the underlying condition. When keto dieters eat carbs again does their sugar spike ? If it does nothing has been cured and they may be making the problem worse by driving more fat into the cells.

You are such a great speaker. So much detail, but never boring. The only thing I would add to this topic is to include some social factors that also lead people to eat. Such as family members who aren't diabetic and eat as they wish. Also stress, drug, and alcohol use. Either by family members and friends, or diabetics themselves. These factors should not be discounted for they are very real.

[@telescopereplicator]

I started the Keto diet two weeks ago. I injected about 45 units of insuline per day, 315 to 330 units per week. I took four pills for my heart and diabetes. Today, I inject 0 to 10 units per day, and certainly less than 20 units per week. I cut my pills in halve, so that's a 50% reduction. AND I have lost over 2 kilos. Of fat, not water. That is a dramatic change. In just TWO weeks. I don't eat bread, sugar, and I don't drink milk. For many decades, we have been lied to by doctors. Only 10% of what we can buy in the shops is decent food. The rest are carbohydrates and sugar. No wonder everybody has diabetes, these days. Not me. Not anymore. I have been properly informed !!!!

[@Lemonz1989]

I think this is unfair to doctors. Where I live doctors aren't paid by the number of prescriptions they write. They are actually discouraged to overprescribe because it is taxing on the public health insurance system and most doctors are public employees here. The problem is that international recommendations on diet have dictated that we should eat a low fat/sodium whole foods diet, which necessarily pushes the amount of carbs up as a percentage of energy intake. Probably 90% or more of doctors have no intention of making themselves rich at the expense of their patients' health.

With the exception of doctor Ekberg and other similarly knowledgable practitioners, many doctors are ignorant of the primary effects of nutrition on the body having never been taught it in medical school. The massive amounts of incorrect information and the the active disinformation relating to the causes of cardiovasular disease and diabetes (fats vs sugar) and the role of carbohydrates make it extremely difficult for the average person to sort out. Add to that the capitalism drive for profitable mega corporations, is it surprising that the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry are the way they are? There is not nearly the amount of money to be made disseminating nutrition information that would correct or prevent a lot of diseases than the current system. The answers to most of the world's major health issues have been hiding in plain sight. It is thanks to the efforts of Dr. Ekberg and others that the message is finally getting out.
