I saw your video about a month ago and I was on 42 units of lantus a day and a hba1c of 9.7 so I decided I would start running and have a very strict diet. Over the last month I have gone down to only 12 units of insulin! All I want now is to keep pushing myself and become the best I can be. Honestly thank you for inspiring me to do something with my blood sugar!

hey@@karlakirk5864 please don't tell your son this is curable, tell him he can manage it if he exercise but not curable, at least for now, there are trial medications for newly diagnosed people maybe look into that but this video might be one in a million case or just a miss diagnosis it's very abnormal to get T1D at this persons age it is probably type two please don't give him false hope and make him think he is worthless when the results don't show up, there are always going to be highs and lows but as long us he takes good care of himself he will be fine, i went of my medication because of this kind of false narrative and it almost killed me. i wish no one goes through that, i personally wish this video doesn't exist or at list had a different approach of going about it

I was diagnosed with type 1 in august of last year. I decided I’d never take insulin, and that id do anything in my power to stay alive. I quit sugar and carbs completely and started doing 3-4 day fasts every few months. I’ve been adding carbs but still remain on a keto diet a year later. I’ve still never taken insulin.

I also was wondering if you were not really a type 1, yet I believe only an initial and current C-peptide could confirm this. However, the point is that you took charge of your health and that's what all diabetics need to do. I became a type 1 diabetic 4 years ago due to an autoimmune disorder that destroyed my pancreas. I too changed my diet, continued to work out 6 days/week, and am now able to live a pretty normal life on just a few units of long lasting insulin every morning. I am very impressed with you Dr.!

We will do a video shortly on Johan’s diet! In the early days we monitored very closely his sugar levels after eating and exercise and during exercise. I think that’s the way for anyone to go, keep a close eye on how certain foods and different types of exercise affect you and your sugar levels. Over time you should be able to make adjustments and keep doing more of what works and less of what doesn’t

I have been a type 1 diabetic for 6 years now. I was diagnosed when I was 24 years old. Last year I decided to play soccer. Which involved training Monday, Wednesday and playing on Saturday morning. After 2 months of training I stopped taking insulin completely. But due to certain reason I stopped playing and training and had to take insulin again. My father has diabetes which led to him to kidney failure and is on dialysis. His father had it which led him to death. My mother has it which led her to have IBS. Her mother had it but died of old age due to diet and control. My whole family had diabetes and so do. I live it and I can confidently say what you doing is the way off it...and if anyone say anything else just means they accepted their condition and does not want to change it

Your story is inspiring. Thank you! I have been a type 1 diabetic for over 40 years. I have cut out sugar and carbs for approximately 2 months. I have been recording glucose levels, all shots, food eaten and time of day. I had to start reducing Lantus and last night I did not inject any Lantus and my sugars were low and normal. Still taking short acting insulin and it's been reduced also. I hope to be able to completely stop it also soon. My health is improving and God has provided me the strength and wisdom to make changes to my life and honor the temple He has provided me. It's never too late to do whatever you can to improve your life. If I continue to need insulin, that's okay, my health is definitely improving!

I've had type 1 for nearly 40 years. I reckon I'm type 1.5 or whatever cus there are days where I need little insulin yet other days my sugar levels go high after appearing to eat the same food & having the same insulin. Predictably unpredictable! For the last 2 years I've had the libre2 cgm & that is a god send. I was 23 when diagnosed & now 63 but I don't appear to have any long term nasties. I played football for many years, banana before kickoff, mars bar at half time. I also ran a bit & did the great north run in 1990. I'm now semi retired & do 6 hour shifts since may whereas I was doing 12 hour shifts in a big Ocado warehouse near Tamworth. I cope with the 'loads of walking' better than most of the younger ones! I was a member of a gym for 9 years but got myself in a money mess 7 years ago so stopped the gym. Its took years but my finances are now sorted so I'm hoping to rejoin the gym soon. Your video has inspired me to get on with that. Thanks.

Getting fit and off of Lantus is one thing. Getting off bolus insulin seems unrealistic.

@@rikkinetic there are gene tests that doctors can order to determine if you have type 1 diabetes or an abnormal form of type 2.

@@jasonreimann6791 I have asked doctors about this test. Apparently it is an extremely expensive test and their reply was that all my symptoms were typical of type 1 and they didn’t see the need to do a genetic test. I came off my Lantus about 6 months before I came off Novorapid, but this was about 6 years after diagnosis and still needed to inject Novorapid for approx. 6 - 8 months after stopping Lantus. My point is that I was living a life of a type 1 diabetic for 6 - 7 years with all the ups and downs that come with it. 🤨 Maybe that also explains why doctors are now recognising ‘type 1,5’ 🤷🏻‍♂️, as my last consultant told me, after coming off insulin, that I am now somewhere between type 1 and type 2.

Hey firstly thank you for sharing this very interesting story and well done to Johan for this amazing transformation! Secondly I'm just puzzled as to how this can happen tbh, it seems as though the pancreas stopped producing insulin (or very little) and then 7 years later has restarted again! This has to be the case otherwise Johan would absolutely have to take some insulin. I can understand why it would be diagnosed as type 1 as the onset was quite sudden with blood sugar of 38 which woudn't be the case with a type 2. A c peptide test would definitely be interesting to see I'm a type 1 of almost 21 years and in the last few years been managing my diabetes mostly with a very low carb/keto diet, in the gym resistance training consistently, going on walks, running occasionally. I've managed to reduce my hba1c from in the 90's to now around 48. I am fairly dialled in in terms of a healthy lifestyle just like Johan yet being on no insulin isnt imaginable really. When I have just protein it requires insulin. Even if i fast i require background insulin due to dumping of glucose from the liver

i am not a doctor but i lived with T1D for about 6 years now and i have done lots of research online and also created a software that counts carbs and also predicts insulin based on previous history , carbs intake and other factors like BMI, and i don't think you where type one, the reasons i don't think you where type one is because 1. you are not with in the typical age range to get T1d 2. type one is when your insulin stops being produced not when the body is resistant (if you some how made your pancreas work again well we need to do lots of research on you because there are many t1d people who are very lean , healthy , muscular , active (runners) ) which still have diabetes which includes me 3. working out makes you high if you don't do it right if you are T1D no disrespect to you however this is a very sensitive topic for most of the T1D community, because the first phase to start improving your lifestyle is to accept what you have and when there is a false narrative that you can be cured you will want to believe it and if you believe it and try your absolute best and when you most probably don't get the result you have expected you will become distractive you will not accept what you have you will deny it and that will lead to may other complications.. i was told it would be cured by every one around me so i went off of insluin until i almost died and i am a very emotionaly stable person i can imagen some one who is dealing with more things

He had to be rushed to hospital with hyperglycaemia and keto-acidosis with a blood sugar of 45 (850-900). He took insulin for 7 years After making improvements to his health, fitness and nutrition and careful monitoring of his insulin intake and blood sugar after several years he found he no longer needed the insulin.

I was not insulin resistent either (as with type2) and so I responded to the insulin injections without any other oral diabetic meds. Somehow my pancreas kicked in again. How and why?

@FightBackAgainstDiabetes Hello, I’m delighted you’ve managed to come off insulin. I’ve been type 1 since I was a very young child so I’ve had it for over 30 years now. As a teenager, young adult and a man in his 30’s and now in my 40’s I’ve trained and played sports my whole life and while the exercise would keep my levels down, they would go back up just as quickly after eating carbs. One question I hope you can answer is; when training so hard, did you experience low blood sugar levels? If I train too long, I just start to drop and have to take some orange juice or glucose. It’s sounds like you didn’t get this which is interesting. Good luck on your health journey. PJ in the UK.

Dear @HousewerkRecords Thank you for your comment. I always used to carry orange juice with me, for this reason. So yes, I did experience occasional hypo’s when training. I was very careful and would check my bs before, halfway through and at the end of a workout. I usually ate a long acting carb, like a banana, and injected s couple of units of Novorapid before a workout, to try and manage my bs during the workout. This seemed to work really well. 👊🏻💯

From what I understand inflammation has a big part to play and I believe inflammation can come from or at least be exacerbated by food! When we really started looking at Johan’s food the main goal was to “clean it up” and we did that by working from principles that I have worked from based on what I’ve learnt and from how the food seem to affect Johan and his sugar levels. Making changes based on what we found from our regular measurements. We reduced processed carbs and increased protein and “good” fats from good sources. Our main goal was just to get Johan to optimal health through fitness and diet. We didn’t expect him to get to the stage where he no longer needed to inject.

I was told at the time, that not all type 1’s have the antibodies and that this test was not conclusive. They told me that there were a few other (very expensive) tests that they could do, but that I would have to fund them myself. I chose not to.

I believe that’s just a reflection on how the health system works over here! Doctors have to deal with all sorts of people everyday with various conditions and if someone has gotten to the stage where they no longer need their help then they’re happy to deal with what they’ve got to deal with day to day and pleased it’s one less person to deal with 🤷🏼‍♂️

Thank you so much for sharing your story. I would like to ask you a few questions if possible.

Hi Anna, Thank you for your comment. I was admitted to hospital with DKA and diagnosed type 1 diabetic at age 46. I was put straight on insulin. It was only 4 years later (a month before I turned 50) that I started training. I was scared, as I had no idea how this would affect my BS. It was only after a few years training that I noticed a change in my insulin needs. I had to keep adjusting my Lantus as my fasting BS kept going down. It was only a year into training that I asked Rikki to look at my diet, for health and fitness reasons. At that point, I could potentially still eat what I want and simply cover it with insulin. Now that I don’t use insulin, I do need to watch my carb intake. I train most days of the week. Some days more than once. About 6 - 10 hours per week. Check out the other videos on Rikki’s channel about my diet and exercise regime. Hope this helps! 🙏🏼

@@johankotze7080 How are your Ketones? Are you on a Ketogenic diet or more standard, but clean diet? Ive landed on a 100% vegan diet, but ofcourse it requires me to totally readress my kitchenhabits. Im quite sensitive to insulin already, but like you, Im quite active, both with working outside/mountaineus woodland in my sparetime, in addition to weight and endurance training. There are some very convincing data from a diabetic doctor in the more ketogenic direction, but after reviewing ALOT of research (NIH, Cell, Lancet and other outlets) in addition to testimonies from doctors and researchers, I landed on going 100% vegan. That poses its own challenges regarding making sure I get the nutrients required, but once you decide to map out a direction, it becomes somewhat easier. I will give Anna a list of research/doc related names she can look into, so if thats of intrest to you, check my reply to her in a little while.

@Anna I got Type 1 at the age of 48 years of age, with emergency room/DKA. I just happened to test my bloodwork 3.5 weeks after my dose 1 of the vaccine, and noticed a spike in bloodsugar, while the hb1ac was normal. It could just be coincidence tho. I got that bloodwork rapport upon request AFTER the DKA, as the doc back then cleared me as normal after the routine workrelated bloodcheck. Found this paper yesterday "A1 beta-casein milk protein and other environmental pre-disposing factors for type 1 diabetes", on the National Library of Medicine. You might need a leaky gut to get that reaction tho, or increased chance. I DID have a VERY stressful job for years, which is one of the issues affecting your vunerability to autoimmune illnesses, in addition to being from the rual enviroment from youth, I have been quite fond of dairy products. Like Johan, I also manage my Type 1 with quite strict patterns, which seems overwhelming at first, but after a while its just normal life. I try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. I did a full bloodwork check very early, to see if I had any deficiencies, that might affect my body's uptake ability of nutrients and vitamins etc. Since you just got out of the hospital, at our age, I almost assume you still have functioning betacells, and Dr Bernstein says you can retain the remaining betacells in the pancreas, if you manage to lower your bloodsugar/hb1ac. Im currently at 5.6, but the hospital kept me at 10-12 for several months to avoid nervedamage since my DKA bloodsugar was extremely high/they have never seen anyone survive such a high bloodsugar (149mmol/l). I was fully functional and felt good until same day of hospital, probably cause of my relativly physical rual lifestyle. Dr Bernstein is a doctor still practicing in USA, and he became diabetic in 1946. He says you can retain your "honeymoon" period, by normalising your HbA1c at 4.7%. Your endocrinologist will surely recommend strongly against this, due to the relative risk of hypoglycaemia. He got a youtube channel, in addition to a book detailing his lifestyle and how he treats his own diabetic patients. I personally went a bit off script, becoming 100% vegan, but avoiding processed vegan food, as that is often as unhealthy as normal junkfood due to addatives and being soaked in oil (staturated fat). There are 2 Type 1 diabetics with high profile, with youtube channel Mastering Diabetes. M.D Brooke Goldner, had the autoimmune illness Lupus, and she reversed all symptoms, including antibody markers. KZbin channel: Goodbye Lupus by Brooke Goldner, M.D. Dr Saray Stancic, had MS, and had the same result. She has several presentations and interviews on youtube. Roy Taylor, Professor of Medicine and Metabolism, Director of the Newcastle Magnetic Resonance Centre have gone into detail about the actual effects on the liver and pancreas thru diet/bodyweight, including the panreas ability to react to bloodsugar signals (Ive not read his papers/only seen his youtube video presentations). Dr. McDougall Health & Medical Center, Doctor Klaper, Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn (specialist in cardiac issues, but ties the overarching prevention/repair back to dietary choices). NutritionFacts with Dr Michael Greger etc. Im very vegan oriented, (I did love dairy and meat, so quitting cold-turkey wasnt a easy choice to make) so the names listed above is biased towards information in that direction, but even research which includes meat/dairy, is heavily inclusive of greens/fruits. Valter Longo comes to mind there, a wellknown researcher from the US. Easy to understand presentation of the science is given by Chris MacAskill, thru his channel "Plant Chompers". I ignored his channel for a long while, but he is really good at picking apart and looking at the actual science/research, and keeping it understandable.

Also check "YOU NEED FIBER! The Secret to Your Gut Health: Kristin Kabay MS, RD, CSSD, LD" on youtube. 25 minutes, but quite detailed. Regarding preserving your "honeymoon" betacells in the pancreas, if you are considered LADA Type 1 Diabetic, also known as Type 1.5. Get your GAD65 number, C-peptide (measure of your pancreas insulin production) and you have to tie that to your bloodsugar value. You might have normal C-peptide compared to healthy people (I do), but my pancreas doesnt release enough insulin if I eat too much carbohydrates. Thats why some (many?) Type 1 diabetics goes for low carb diets, while some goes for vegan, which can be both relatively high or low in carbs, depending on leafy greens, root veggies (got more carbs) or fruits. The logic of high carb vegan direction is to remove the fat from the cells, including liver and pancreas, decreasing your insulin resistance. Ofcourse, there are opposing views on this, and I know personally Type 1 diabetics that kept eating normally. I cant shake the feeling that you are not giving your body a chance to preserve or maybe even repair the damage. McDougall says Betacells cant be repaired, but Valter Longo has done research/lab tests on mice where they saw revival of the betacells. Ofcourse, this is mice and not a human body, but biology has seemingly an window of oppurtunity. Is it realistic? I dont know. Im not a doctor, and found myself in the hospital, like you in August 2022. So Ive just been consuming as much information as I can, and been using the health services to verify my bloodvalues going in the safe direction. My hospitals senior physician wanted to put me on Statins due to high LDL and Triglycerides. I suspected it being the effect of a long timeperiod of high bloodsugars, and refused. Went 100% vegan, and 4 weeks later my Triglycerides went from 2.9 (256) to 0.79 (70). LDL went from 3.3 (128) to 2.8 (108). Still not stellar LDL, but I didnt need Statins. Again, Im not a doctor, but just telling my story, as we are the same age and in the same situation.

I've heard of a few type ones reversing. It's so inspiring and amazing! I know a type one who is fit, but had it since birth and is not better though. He is not an athlete though. We still don't know everything about diabetes. There might be regenerative conditions we can trigger in the body, or if we reverse the auto immune problem, the condition favors the pancreas to work again. Who knows. Often type 1 diabetics don't exercise on a high level. I've heard rarely of people reversing type 1 with herbs and minerals like niacin-amide, which is like Chromium Picolonate as it sensitized the blood cells to receive insulin. Either way it's awesome.

Based on what was discussed in this video, it does not appear he was a type-1 diabetic, but a Type-2 diabetic. The only way to confirm Type-1 diabetes is with positive antibodies. Currently the only possible way of reversing Type-1 diabetes is through a raw vegan diet.

This is very interesting. I was diagnosed Type 1 Diabetic April 2020 at Age 29. I was fairly fit / strong with not a terrible nor good diet. Type 1 was confirmed through antibdody testing. I am so pleased to have fount this video, as I believe Daniel Darkes was also able to come off insulin through vigorous training and exercise. There is clearly a link and I believe this video will inspire many of us, to give it a go. Huge congrats to you Johan.

Due to Age, physical health and job role demands, doctor at the time assumed type 1 and was correct after we done blood tests. GAD and IA2 positive if I remember right. I was never big into cardio, but more weight training. I think your question is why and how was I diagnosed? I lost a stone and half of weight in 4 - 5 weeks, constantly drinking water without quenching first and another weird one, reoccurring mouth infections!

There no way your full fledged type one. What was your c peptide? In any case it's still the best thing you can do for type one (and type 2 but..)! I am a type one since 3 yrs of age and I am 50 now, so far from both cardio and weights I've got completely off of blood pressure meds. Blood pressure before was 160-180 and with meds about 130-140, now without meds and just exercise my last one was 116/74. My insulin resistance is disappearing, I've reduced my long acting insulin by almost 40% and halved my quick acting. The ks to Richard Bernstein I've also got my average hba1c down to 4.6%. my diet is largely meat and eggs so the bulk of which is protein and a good amount of fats (not vegetable oils). Diet, exercise and diluting insulin while not a cure, you receive all the benefits as if you have been cured.

I only finally got a c-peptide done by an Endocrinologist because I read about it and "asked" for it to be done.

It's very difficult to believe a type 1 diabetic can be healthy without injecting insulin. Perhaps he has found a long term honeymoon phase and the requirement for insulin will eventually return as the autoimmune disorder progresses and kills off the beta cells. Perhaps he caught it early enough and converted to an extremely low carb diet that doesn't tax the body to produce much insulin, prolonging the inevitable. It's very very difficult to believe this story at face value. No doubt a healthy diet and exercise go a long way to aiding in the treatment of t1d, but total insulin independence seems physically impossible.

@@johankotze7080 Years ago I saw a report that in mice whose beta cells had degenerated or reduced in number due to being on a high fat diet, were able to re-new the beta cells when they were given chromium in the diet. And I imagine that the life-style changes and the diet changes you made may have have re-set your inflammatory/immune dys-regulated condition which might have been the cause of beta cell degeneration and hence reduced insulin production. Both exercise and a low carb/fat and high veg/salad diet can overhaul the GIT microbiome. A disturbed GIT microbiome is believed to play a big role in systemic auto immune disease.

No idea to be honest! Initially I needed more insulin when I was working out. My muscles needed the sugar for energy, but there was no insulin to carry the sugar from my blood to my muscles. As a result my liver started producing glucagon, pushing more sugar into my blood, in an attempt to supply my muscles with energy, but there was still no insulin to carry the sugar to the muscles. I ended up with high bs at the end of every workout, so I started to eat a long/slow acting carb, like a banana and injected 2 units of Novorapid before each workout. This worked a treat and kept my blood sugar fairly stable. I stopped doing this when I stopped injecting insulin, as I also noticed that even if my bs went up during the workout, it would normally come down again within 2 hours after the workout. Hope this helps.

Maybe that’s where the possibility lies between juevinile and late onset. Diet and exercise didn’t prevent my progression but I’m still holding out hope that if I can build significant muscle I’ll have better outcomes :)

We accept that what has happened to Johan is likely not to happen to everyone! There are many type 1’s out there that exercise as hard and as regular as him and have been as dedicated at working to get their diet as good as they can like him and yet still have to inject and that is unfortunate. Total respect to anyone who does do this and is dedicated and disciplined like Johan is. If you make your decisions based around you being as healthy as you can be and you do all you can to get that, then well done to you. That is admirable and you’ll be better off for it! Not everyone will get the same results as Johan but if they’re doing all they can then there should be comfort in that 🙏🏼 Keep up your good work!

Even though I do acknowledge and respect the hard work Johan put in to change his life the titel of this video is provocing to me as a type-1 diabetic. As I understand it you can´t cure type-1 diabetic if you have zero insulin producing beta cells in your pancreas left. For me I'm 61 years old, type-1 since 2007, just as fit as Johan, on a zero carb carnivore diet, does the detailed diary with all stats for years and years, and I still have to inject insulin. Long term and short term. For sure not large dosis but still. So it's annoying to say the least to read this title. Yes you can live with type-1 diabetes and not inject insulin if you still have a little insulin production left. That's a totally different thing from actually curing this disease.

Thank you for sharing! We need to learn more from others and their experiences. Ultimately we are asking questions? Did Johan cure HIS type 1? We don’t know, we are sharing his story and hopefully helping others by doing so! We understand that not everyone will have the same results as Johan. You yourself seek to do what you can by the way of fitness and nutrition to help your situation and that is admirable and in my opinion is the right way to go about things! The title is somewhat of a necessary evil, the truth is, if it were not for this title you probably wouldn’t have seen this video and heard of Johan’s story and that would be the case for many others too who have benefited from seeing it. It’s important to hear other people’s stories so we all can learn about diabetes because it seems there is still much to learn about it. Thank you for sharing your story because it shows that Johan’s case is rare and whilst it might be rare we are sure it can’t be totally unique. It’s maybe those people who fall in to the same category as Johan who will benefit most from finding this video and now they have your input too to help them make more informed decisions for the future 😊 Thanks again

@@rikkinetic Thanks for your reply, but once again: You write: -"Ultimately we are asking questions? Did Johan cure HIS type 1? We don’t know, we are sharing his story and hopefully helping others by doing so!" No, Johan did not cure his type-1 diabetes. Nobody does. We do know this. Your statement is misleading and as such doesn't benefit those of us who seek to optimize our health despite having type-1 diabetes. I would've found your video either way. I'm looking for more info about how I as a type-1 diabetic WITHOUT insulin production is affected by all the factors that determine exactly how many units of each insulin I need at any given moment. You see with a person like Johan who still has a insulin production matters are infinitely easier than for those of us who have zero insulin production left. If you want to help you need to get your facts in order. This is not rocket science and your title is still misleading and false.

As I said before unfortunately this video might not help all type 1 sufferers but there are some who would be in the same situation as Johan found himself in and therefore can benefit from this. Maybe you would have found this video had it been titled differently but there are others who wouldn’t Thanks again for your input, I hope you can find what you’re looking for

Did you not listen carefully? They never ever said this would cure ALL type-1 diabetics. Did they ever say this? In fact they specifically disclaimed that. All they do is present a single case, that demonstrates that at least one, if not possibly others, might benefit from the changes that Johan and Rikki made to overcome his diabetes. It is important to understand that even with type-1 diabetes, not all case are stereo typical. Auto immune associated destruction of the beta cells, is often typically inexorable, and certainly would be hastened by a careless lifestyle and inflammatory diet. On the other hand there could be some (perhaps rare) cases where the auto immune process slows down or even stops and beta cell regeneration can take place. And this would be more likely to happen with the kinds of changes Rikki and Johan implemented, it certainly would never have happened had he not changed his life. One thing is for sure, if you follow the recommendations of the traditional American diabetes Association you're not going to have the best outcome, as Dr Richard Bernstein has documented in his many books and talks.

My belief is Type 1 is a spectrum. There are some unlucky people whose B cells have been totally destroyed and if they did what Johan did they would get tremendous benefit but they can never get off some Insulin--they can reduce it a lot but if they are producing zero insulin they will need insulin. Then there are type I s where losing weight getting rid of fatty liver and fatty pancreas and autophagy and anti-inflammatory effect of fasting can allow B cell recovery. The LADA patients are more likely to be able to achieve this than the Type 1 s with sudden onset when they are really young.. Nothing is black and white. There are certainly cases of type I confirmed with fasting insulin, C Peptide, and antibodies (blood tests) that have reversed there Type I diabetes. Not every type I can do this but virtually every type II can ! It would be interesting to know Johan's C peptide and fasting Insulin while he had diabetes and compare them with now!

Yes that’s what seems to be the situation from what we’ve seen with Johan and what we’ve heard from several other people and some medical professions - it’s not as clear as just being type 1 and type 2! Thank you for sharing. I know Johan still takes his blood sugar regularly so he might have an idea as to how much it’s changed!
