The views on these informative podcasts is really low and I don't know why people are not interested in watching these podacsts . sam should promote it more and youtube , youtube is really dead , I subscribed her channel and switched the notification bell on but it doesn't recommend me her videos when it is uploaded . Really love her Podcast and also lots of love to sam ❤❤❤

Thank you for the support, means a lot to us :)

Thanks for a great session. I used CGM for about 2 months and got great data that helped me drive my good intake to reduce/control the spikes. However, one thing that we don’t talk about is the “anxiety” that comes with CGM (it did with me) and the methods to control it. I’ve decided to give CGM a rest as the two months gave me tools that I need to use. I’ve been a vegetarian for 22 years (after being a huge meat eater before that) and I’m considering becoming a pescatarian to start the keto journey. Once I decide to move forward with that I’m brining the CGM back on my arm to monitor and adjust as I start making progress. Great work here, please continue and thanks for spreading good education. Appreciate this very much.

[@WellnessbyAlkesh]

Thank you for the kind words. I do agree that any monitoring tool can have that effect and it could be of help if effective methods are used to mitigate it.

What ever she is saying is pseudo sciense dont put your life under danger better take information from right sources

[@surendarvijay2520]

@@35sunoonkp50kindly go screw yourself. These videos match information from multiple other forums, including my own practitioner, and multiple esteemed experts such as Huberman. All they’re saying here is to match carbs with fat and protein, to reduce insulin spikes.

[@surendarvijay2520]

@@35sunoonkp50Hello mister AIIMS doctor, there have been several cases of people putting T2 diabetes into remission after cutting out foods that cause insulin resistance. Functional nutrition has been shown to increase insulin resistance, reducing dependence on medicine. You don’t have to shove tablets down your throat all the time. You guys have the sick mentality that everything a celebrity promotes is promotion and bad info. She has been through a lot and is helping others get through their own health struggles. Moreover, having seen videos by actual MDs on KZbin, including consultations with clinical nutritionists, I assert that all these videos give accurate information, without any fads.

Hi Sam, thanks for the podcast! Been following since episode 1, it's been really helpful for me and my grandparents love it too, haha. They're getting great health ideas. Don't let negativity get to you, keep focusing on your positive intentions with the podcast. Take care! ✨

[@priyadurai5803]

Hi Samantha, Thanks for this podcast. I learned many things from it. Before listening, I didn't know that sleeping in the afternoon right after a meal could spike sugar levels. I'm now changing my lifestyle accordingly.

[@archanaa4704]

Hey Sam please continue your posts on functional health and alternative meds.please don't bother on the counter arguments. you are just posting based on your experience and what has worked..your intentions are very pure. these info on alternative options - most folks are not at all aware while there is exponential rise in lifestyle diseases. There might be misses here and there but we are all learning together. don't bother abt folks trying to villify or attack you rather than having a meaningful conversation to arrive at a conclusion.

[@surendarvijay2520]

Great point. These trolls have no idea of what’s going on in the clinical community. Most good doctors in the west now ascribe to nutrition before doling out meds. There are several MDs on KZbin that shed light on nutrition, and show that it is a better long time cure than medical, for quite a few cases.

[@BirajSutradhar-mt2tf]

[@MemeMass]

Doctors should be broad minded and compassionate to acknowledge ancient medicine practices and find out their scientific insights

[@shymabanu4639]

Yeah.. i agree keto will reverse type 2 diabetes. But the question is will the reversal be the same even after we switch to normal diet over a period of time or we will fall into diabetes again if we change our diet back??

[@surendarvijay2520]

It can return, so we should reintroduce carbohydrates slowly into our diet. Additionally, increasing muscle mass can improve insulin sensitivity. There’s a nice KZbin channel called glucose goddess that provides more info on meal timings, best foods etc. Take regular blood tests, under the guidance of a doctor to know if reintroducing carbohydrates is helping or not.

[@WellnessbyAlkesh]

If one follows a well balanced diet post reversal then they can easily maintain healthy cardiometabolic health. On the other hand if we fall back to similar eating patterns that manifested the diabetes at the first place then there are chances that might return.

How do you reverse type 2 diabetes if a good chunk of pancreatic cells is already resting in peace? I got diagnosed at 29 with a hba1c of 11, I think I am pretty messed up. I am 31 now on medication that stops your liver from secreting sugar that adds to the problem, I walk sometimes, and my blood sugar level is in check. I don't think I am a candidate for reversal, I've accepted it. Don't give me hope. 😢

[@saradhikadali6613]

Does Ketogenic diet content and quantity vary from age to age? Please clarify in next episode.

[@TheLegendOptimus]

It depends on your calorific intake. I was restricting myself to 5g of carbs and increased my protein intake. Calculate your Basal Metabolic Rate which can be done in any gym with a nutritionist and use any fitness tracker to track the calories you're burning through your day to day activities. You need to increase your fat and protein intake in keto if you're someone who likes to do cardio everyday. As a baseline 2000 calories per day and you need 2000 calories from fat and proteins instead of carbs. Easy to do once you get a hang of it. Just eat chicken (grilled /tandoori without mint chutney), avoid food fried with batter and some veggies (avoid tomatoes, potatoes and any high carb veggies and avoid all forms of fruits). Also micronutrients will not be fulfilled with keto and would recommend taking a multi vitamin supplement.

[@Sidvlogs02]

Are you okay sammy?? All well?

While in course of six pack abs will ketogenic diet be sufficient or prescribed high protein diet. Anybody?

Both the diets when done in calorie deficit for a long enough duration can get the bodyfat percentage down to a level at which abs should be visible..

Too much saturated fat will make you insulin resistant. Ketogenic diet doesn’t fix the root cause

[@surendarvijay2520]

This is a good point. However, it can be remedied by reducing saturated fat content and replacing it by polyunsaturated fats. Ketogenic diet does directly attack the root cause of insulin sensitivity in most people.
