Bev, here is the thing to know in your case. You are not a pure type 2 diabetic, neither are you a full blown type 1. You are in between - type 1.5 because of those antibodies. What that means is, someone like you will need s small dose of daily insulin otherwise you'll continue to lose weight and your family will be getting worried about you. See your doctor to have a chat about this please. But continue to eat plant-based

I've been avoidant of getting my next one done as I'm awaiting surgery for removal of pleomorphic adenoma ( biopsied as non malignant thank God). Still I am now result vigilant and looking for ways to keep on top of things so that my next hba1c will be fine. I never had to take medication. But avoidance of testing can creep in. I had no idea stress can cause raised blood sugar levels. Here on this journey for life. Soaking in the truly wonderful content .

@@stony2494 And guess what? Your body actually prefers to use sugar (glucose) for its energy needs. Not fat. Hence your body will want to get rid of the fat first if you present it with sugar and fats together. Hence it abandons the glucose leaving you with high blood sugar and high insulin levels because it is preoccupied with the fat. Then you complain that your body doesn't deal with sugar very well. Stop giving it fats and it will do what it loves to do - burn glucose

Dr. Joe, Thank you for sharing these wonderful dietary ideas to help combat diabetes. But I am still confused about how to apply these suggestions. For example, do we eat exclusively only these non-starchy vegetables for week 1? Should one’s breakfast, lunch, and dinner consist only of these vegetables and nothing else? Also, Do you suggest salads, smoothies, or the cooked variety of these vegetables in our meals? Finally, which are the starchy type of vegetables to avoid to make this diet work for on in week 1? Some clarity on how to go about meals from your diet suggestions will be helpful. I am in the dark as how to go about this. Thank you 🙏

[@drjoetvMD]

Keep eating whatever you are currently eating. It's a step-wise approach. All we are doing this week is ADD Non-starchy above-ground vegetables to your current diet. So your task is to give these veggies a priority on your plate. Give them plenty of room on your plate. And you can have them any how you wish. Plus we are removing the fruits for now. They will be back later. Got it?

[@drjoetvMD]

Potatoes, rice, corn, rye, barley, quinoa, amaranth, sorghum, wheat products like bread, pasta etc are all starchy foods.

Use healthy recipes. That's all you need to do. Include as many of the non-starchy vegetables as possible into your recipes to bulk them up. That fills you up so you don't get hungry

[@noorfaiza]

Hello Dr. Joe, thank you for your valuable information about healthy eating. The way I approach this is by lifestyle changes on top of my current lifestyle which I love i.e. practicing Intermittent fasting. The challenge here is to eat a colander worth of greens plus other rainbow colors of vegetables in my daily diet, considering the time-restricted meal plan. My huge concern is whether will I be able to get them all in before I even get full. Secondly, my grocery list will get longer and my shopping frequency will also be more from now on. Unless I can learn how to keep my produce last longer in the fridge. I take it as a challenge and I appreciate your guidance.

[@drjoetvMD]

If you are eating One Meal A Day, it might be difficult but you don't have to stuff everything in one day

[@noorfaiza]

@@drjoetvMD Oh really. I thought the amount is for every day. I need to rewatch the video. Anyway, I still need to add the non-starchy vegetables to my plate as much as possible. I see you eat way more vegetables than I do and you are a great example of what eating more veggies is all about. I will try to emulate you as best as I can. Oh, and I don't do OMAD.

Thank you for your guidance Dr. Joe! I was close to borderline diabetes, but watching your videos have helped my lipid numbers decrease considerably.

I've been eating kale daily for years, in smoothie for breakfast and cooked for dinner. Can I make a smoothie in morning with the vegetables you suggested, and do I consume all the vegetables or some, like the ones I like? I'm allergic to eggplant.

[@drjoetvMD]

Yes, of course smoothies is part of the plan. Definitely

[@ThuLe-eh1xe]

Me too, I am on cholesterol pill for 5 months, 40mg atorvastatin, beta blocker and baby aspirin. I want to quit, but my MD said that I have to take it for the rest of my life! I called 5 naturopathic doctors but they charge too much, at least 6000 for 6 months, including supplements, labs, tests. Besides, ND have no authority to win us off medication. I am afraid like you that if I stop medication, , I will have blood clot. So what do you plan to do? Thanks.

[@drjoetvMD]

Anyone who follows what I promote on this channel religiously will have low cholesterol levels. I can vouch for that. I teach what I do. My last Total Cholesterol reading was 120 mg/dl with an LDL cholesterol of 69 mg/dl. This was 6 months ago, it could even be lower today. This is where I want you folks to be. If you have levels like this, there is no reason why you should be taking any Big Pharma pills. Totally pointless taking pills with fantastic cholesterol readings. There is a reason we do what we do. To come off pills. Your doctor must see sense in stopping your medication

Hello Dr Joe, Thank you for all your educational videos. I have subscribed and paid my subscription. However I don't know where subscribers can communicate with you other than this you tube. I have a question about a "Collagen" is it good to take this supplement to help with joint pain ? What are the side effect? Thank you Dr.

[@drjoetvMD]

If you ask your question on the Five platform, I'll respond there. In case of next time, go here five.me/drjoemd Save that URL so you can revisit it anytime. I will get notified about all queries, don't you worry about that. Anyway, my humble opinion about collagen supplements is that they are a lot of hype. Collagen supplements don't do much for joint pains no matter what the sellers will claim. It's all hype. Joint pain requires you to find out why you are having the pain in the first place because there is Rheumatoid Arthritis which is an autoimmune problem where your body is reacting against itself and there is Osteoarthritis which is where the bone is rubbing against the bone. Both are treated differently. Rheumatoid arthritis requires tackling the autoimmune problem. What I tell people who have arthritis is do two things first of all. Stop all dairy. Yes cut out all dairy foods. Second thing is cut out all forms of sugar and that includes honey, agave syrup, maple syrup, table sugar etc. Why because they have fructose and fructose is highly inflammatory and just makes arthritis worse. Those simple two things when done thoroughly are enough in some cases to help with arthritis. Plus of course adding some exercise if possible. The other thing is people have responded very well to Turmeric and Moringa. Lots of people have written to me about those two natural products helping their arthritis a lot. If you think you still want to have collagen supplements, you MAY go ahead but don't expect dramatic results from them. They are more hype than anything else. Hope that helps

[@drjoetvMD]

Oh I should add that some people (not everyone) improve their arthritis symptoms when they take out Nightshade foods off their menu. This tip is individualistic not generic but it's worth a try

[@ThuLe-eh1xe]

Hi Sir , Besides the non starchy vegetables that you teach about, can we eat rice, quinoa, buckwheat etc...or we can only eat vegetables and drink water? Thann you.

[@drjoetvMD]

This is a step by step process. This is just Week 1. There are 7 more weeks to go. So all you need to do in Week 1 is keep doing whatever you were doing but we will add to whatever you are currently eating. What are we going to add? Above-ground non-starchy vegetables.

[@rickperez8044]

You may want to reframe your premise. I know the official term is glucose tolerance, but that term implies that the body needs to tolerate something that is innately bad or toxic to us. This would mean that your strategy would make us immune from the harmful effects of carbs. This premise also suggests that ideally, we should minimize or eliminate consumption of carbs. I know this is clearly not your thesis, but like my ex used to tell me, "It's not what you say, it's how you say it."

[@drjoetvMD]

There is absolutely no need to reframe what I said. It's glucose tolerance and yes, all the cells in your body need to be responsive to the glucose coming from your food. That's what glucose tolerance is because in the end the carbohydrate-rich food you eat will be broken down to glucose in the end. And No, glucose is not bad for you. Your body is designed to run on glucose with fat as back up. I know the keto folks would like to give glucose a bad name but take it from me, glucose is not bad for you. It's only bad for you if you are intolerant to it because of insulin resistance. Glucose inside the cells of your body is not toxic to you. It's glucose in the blood that cannot find its way into the cells that is toxic. Your job as an individual is to make it easy for your cells to soak up the glucose from the blood circulation. The ability of your cells to do that successfully is by definition is glucose tolerance and being able to do that easily is insulin sensitivity. Makes sense?

It depends. The ones that can eaten raw can be either eaten raw or cooked like kale, collard greens, broccoli etc. And the ones that should be cooked must be cooked like mushrooms, eggplant etc

I eat all of these with the exception of eggplants 🍆 and zucchini. So, week one should be pretty easy to handle. Thanks 😊

Good. That's a good start but add the eggplants and zucchinis, mushrooms and celery.

I just discovered your channel, I seriously need to follow you for the 8weeks, to get the disease reversed. How do I know when you're on, don't want to moss any of the week

[@drjoetvMD]

My videos get released every Saturday at 6am US Eastern time. Sometimes I publish on Wednesdays but usually on Saturdays

[@jockaud]

Hi Dr. Joe, I was wondering what the other food(s) make up the other 10%? And are all the non-starchy vegetables raw or can they be steamed? Can I mix several of the vegetables together or should they be eaten one at a time? How many meals per day and time between meals? Thank you for this important video series!

[@drjoetvMD]

Let's not jump ahead of ourselves please. All of your questions will be addressed with subsequent videos. For now simply add non-starchy vegetables to whatever you are currently eating. Make them a priority. Make them dominate the plate. Take out the fruits for now. Don't worry they will come in later. Let's just do that in Week 1 first please

[@jockaud]

Hi Dr. Joe when will you talk about Rheumatoid arthritis how to reverse it. Thanks for the work you are doing

[@drjoetvMD]

Not this summer for sure. This entire summer is dedicated to diabetes reversal

[@salomealabo5021]

Hello Dr Joe job. These veggies are not easy to get in my area what other veggies can be substituted for the ones you have mentioned

[@drjoetvMD]

Well I don't know where you live and what vegetables you have there locally, so that's a hard question for me to answer. All I will say is any above-ground, nutrient-dense vegetables will fall into this category

[@spektred]

Those non-starchy vegetables not only reduce visceral fat percentages, they also increase your nutrient intake, which it's also very good for fixing a broken metabolic system. Excellent.

Thanks again! Dr. Joe can you kindly help with advice on tinnitus please. Its bothersome and very upsetting!

There isn't any reliable natural remedies for tinnitus that work reliably as far as I know. It's something affected people learn to live with unfortunately. People may want to sell you all sorts because you are desperate but they are just scams

Does that mean for the whole of the week, a person will be eating only above ground vegetables breakfast, lunch and dinner ?

[@drjoetvMD]

No, you don't eat vegetables only. Might not fill you up. The idea is to introduce vegetables as a major component of your plate. Veggies should constitute 50% of your plate, then add legumes and later grains like quinoa to the other 50%
