127% Insulin Sensitivity Increase: NEW STUDY on Type 1 Diabetes

👇HOW CAN I HELP YOU?
✅ Discover what to eat to lower blood sugar, lose weight, and get your best A1c ever
www.masteringd...
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition that requires careful management of blood sugar levels. Most of us have explored different types of diets to lower our carbohydrate intake, but what if there was a way to improve insulin sensitivity and overall health without relying on strict carbohydrate restriction? A groundbreaking new study suggests that a low-fat, plant-based diet may hold the answer. The randomized clinical trial compared the effects of a vegan diet to a conventional diabetes diet, yielding some surprising results. Could this plant-based approach revolutionize the way we think about type 1 diabetes management? Discover the key findings and the science behind this innovative study.

I have been vegetarian most of my life. After pregnancy I developed insulin resistance with mild nephropathy. I freaked out as I always consider myself healthy. So I decided to go Keto, started to eat meat. Omg, I was miserable! All that fat, yuck. My usually great cholesterol went way up and all they said that's from eggs nothing to worry about. But I felt so down and had muscle aches, nausea after eating. So I went and do my own research and found these guys. First week after consuming so much fruits and whole grains my numbers went up so I just kept saying to myself - trust the process. After first week... omg, it all went slowly away! My nephropathy is almost non present. Today I ate huge oatmeal + ton of fruits (around 130 grams of carbs) for breakfast and nothing! My numbers barely moved! I'm beyond happy. Yesterday ate half of watermelon. I feel energetic, positive and have perfect numbers even after 5 hours. Thank you so much!!

I have been type 1 diabetic over 17 years, my HB1AC has always been awful and control overall bad. I have been vegan for 3 years and my HB1AC is now amazing, i need less insulin with food, as soon as i went vegan i noticed the insulin sensitivity within days. My results have been so good my diabetic nurses have said what i am doing is almost miraculous. (Ofcourse due to stress and hormones i do get those occasional spikes that are hard to bring down) And the omnipod and Libre have helped so much too. What i need to work on is really cutting down on fats and only eating more 'good' fats and more wholefoods all together so i can really see amazing results.

[@oncechen6240]

How much insulin you inject in a day?

[@etg9080]

use some spices to reduce the intake of insulin injection.,

[@LovelyDoris2011]

To maximise insulin sensitivity using this method, you do not want to increase 'good' fats. It's less than 15% of calories from fat per day.

I am T1D. But intitally (~2019 when I was diagnosed, I was diagnosed as T2D, just based on doctor's clinical examination and no tests were done to verify) and in an attempt to reverse my diabetes (thinking it was T2D), I personally been on STRICT Whole Food plat based diet for ~6 months+ and then slowly came of it. Back then I could eat any tree on the street :), thats how far I went. Evenn my skin color changed then. I am still plant based mostly with a few exceptions, but not whole food any more. Maintaining a healthy Hba1c of 5.7 for more than a couple of years now.

What can happen in the absence of insulin in type 1 diabetes and why is the blood sugar in the 80-170 range? Does it decrease and increase without insulin? I have the following analyses HbA1C - 7.45 Peptide C 0.460 Homa index 26.00 Serum glucose (glycemia) 176.0 Plus other conditions such as: Constipation Abdominal pains Excessive urination Excessive thirst Nervous states I feel the blood circulation flow slower. pricking Numb hands and feet even at the toilet and I feel like the circulation in the head is being forced pinch I'm getting thinner and you can see my tendons I have 57 kg Small black lines appear on the angle and are visible. I feel my body getting tired and when I get tired sometimes my blood sugar also drops and I don't understand the deviations where these oscillations are. I have vitamin deficiencies but the analyzes are normal and I don't understand what else to do. Please an answer.

[@Marcus-uc4qx]

So when people talk about plant based diet, are they including both simple and complex carbohydrates?

[@danh5637]

What’s @masteringdiabetes guys views on systemic enzymes being used to reverse some type1 diabetics in some cases. I keep hearing that they’re now being used and some are able to come off insulin as it’s restoring capacity to the pancreas? I know they’re not vegan. But just wondering your thoughts.

[@GerbenWulff]

First of all, insulin sensitivity is the opposite of insulin resistance. We have a standardized test for measuring insulin resistance, hence we have a standardized method for determining insulin sensitivity. What you were measuring in this study has very little to do with insulin sensitivity, at best it can be considered a proxy. What was measured instead of insulin resistance was the insulin to carb ratio. Then you kind of admit that low carb diets could have similar results, but claim that it's a dangerous diet, referring to a couple of studies, without going into the details. Those studies are about lipid/heparin infused free fatty acids, not about ingested fats. As you state, by far most of the reduction in insulin dose is achieved by weight loss. There are a couple of reasons why the insulin to carb ratio is not directly related to insulin sensitivity. A first reason is that a whole food plant-based diet is hard to digest. You might eat a lot of carbs, but your body won't absorb all the carbs and nutrients. Then there is the little fact that protein and fat also require insulin to be processed. By using carbs only for your ratio, a more carb-rich diet cannot be compared to a less carb-rich diet. If I ate a low carb diet of only 10 g of carbs a day, needing 30 units of insulin, my insulin to carb ratio goes through the roof compared to someone eating 200 g of carbs a diet and using the same amount of insulin. The whole ratio is just useless. The study states that the portion-controlled group lost 4.3 kg of weight with a p value of

There’s one problem with the study and this video - when you restrict a percentage of your fat calories by definition you are tracking calories. It’s very tricky to calculate this type of diet. I wish they’d just provide a fat gram allowance. And people need to be told over and over not to restrict their calories.

[@suzyn9119]

He does say to eat no more than 30 grams of fat a day.

[@nellywolf8908]

People with IBS have massive issues with this type of diet.

[@MartinVran]

Most people should tolerate sweet potatoes. They're complete source of all nutrients in adequate amount except for B12 and enough water. It would still be low fat WFPB.

[@HSHeart723]

Type 1 definitely is epigenetic. My 8YO is a T1 and we have Zero T1 on mine or my husband's side of the family. I feed my kid real food and try to avoid all the junk frankin-foods. We eat predominately paleo.

[@marcierenee15]

I eat mostly plant based but I have many clients that don't- can't these benefits happen with a low fat diet that includes lean protein and low fat dairy? Why does is always point to plant based?

[@suzyn9119]

Because you'll live longer. No animal products, no oil makes you virtually stroke, heart attack and artery disease free...... oh .... and cancer free.

[@adim00lah]

It's because animal protein itself has a high insulin index. Yes, meat has a very low glycemic index but it does have a very high insulin index. Look up this video: Paleo diet may negate benefits of exercise So regardless if the meat is lean meat like fish, it still have a fairly high insulin index. Lean meat is better than fatty meat though. When the meat is high in saturated fat, it adds a second problem of lipotoxicity which can raise blood sugar as well, for information on this look up the video: Lipotoxicity how saturated fat raises blood sugar.

[@marcierenee15]

@@suzyn9119 Perhaps. But for many of my clients that adore steaks and burgers it would be a diet lacking in joy too...and I put the health benefits of joy at the very top. Partially plant based many can do, totally plant based would take away the will to live for many I know. Hence- I'd like to see more studies that show the health benefits of an overall balanced diet that is lower in fat and protein and processed junk, higher in plant based but not vegan. Some of the unhealthiest clients I've worked with were vegans- some can thrive on it, others are a hot mess.

weird i eat carbs sugar goes up I eat meat only sugar goes down. carnivore works and I do not even have to count calories I am not hungry anymore even something as simple as carrots make me crave more food. Vegan is fine if you want to do it. But using a high carb diet to fix carb intolerance just seems oxymoronic to me. maybe in some people it works I know for me it sure does not.

[@spiderqueen601]

Fat causes carbohydrate intolerance. When you eat carb-free you’re not “fixing” carb intolerance you’re just avoiding the problem. By reducing fat you correct the source of the carbohydrate intolerance.

[@spiderqueen601]

Also if you listen to the entire video he’ll say very clearly that low carb diets do in fact lower blood glucose. But it does so while making carb tolerance (insulin resistance) worse.

I have a few clients that claim to be "thriving" on carnivore, some "keto"- my fear in the long run is the health of their adrenal glands.

The LCHF group showed improved insulin sensitivity, reduced glycemic variability, and lower HbA1c levels. ### 2. **Comparison of the Effects of a High-Carbohydrate vs. Low-Carbohydrate Diet on Glucose Excursions, Insulin Sensitivity, and Lipid Profiles in Individuals with Type 1 Diabetes** - **Publication:** Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism - **Year:** 2020 - **Findings:** The LCHF diet outperformed the LFHC diet in terms of reducing glucose excursions and improving insulin sensitivity. Participants on the LCHF diet also had lower triglyceride levels and better HDL cholesterol profiles.
