Dr. David Unwin - 'What predicts drug-free type 2 diabetes remission?'

- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- Dr. David Unwin is GP based in Southport in the United Kingdom. After over 25 years of attempting to treat diabetes by conventional methods, Dr. Unwin was introduced to low carb nutrition through one of his patients and the website www.diabetes.co.uk
From this revelation, Dr. Unwin now ignores official advice and treats his patients with a low-carbohydrate diet. Since adopting the approach, his practice now spends £68,000 less each year on drugs for diabetes than is average for his area.
Dr. Unwin is the RCGP National Champion for Collaborative Care and Support Planning in Obesity & Diabetes, as well as a Clinical Expert in diabetes. In 2015 he won the North West NHS ‘Innovator of the Year Award’ and in 2016 he won the National NHS 'Innovator of the Year Award' for his work in treating diabetes with a low carbohydrate approach.

Dr. Unwin is wonderful - a rare source of truth in the modern world.
Scientists face extreme risk to their Careers...Loss of any more funding to "Cancelation" to Ostracism).... IF Their Work DOESN'T SUPPORT what the Funding Source WANTS the Research to support.
Follow the money.
Thanks to 2020 we can see how careless doctors are, and thanks to LCDU I quit the 'healthy' grains, fruits and salads
Salads can be part of a low carb diet. It’s the starchy vegetables, sugary fruit and the processed carbs (mostly grains) that need to be avoided.
I absolutely love that Dr Unwin also mentions intentions, care, maintenance, and follow up... I'm convinced that combined with proper psychological / emotional support to patients, this clinic would reach even better success. Sugar consumption is ALSO a psychological program entangled with emotions since childhood for too many, a quick fix to stress, trauma, boredom, need for love... and also profoundly attached to way too many social events like movies, birthdays, etc. A quick instant-reward dopamine rush that just never quite reaches the high we are looking for...
Our man in Southport.
Around 10 billion spent on diabetes each year by the NHS and most of that is type II. Imagine being in hospital due to a health complication due to type II diabetes and in the next bed is a poor child fighting for their life from some rare disease or illness that not much money has been put into researching. I would feel so embarrassed and guilty. The good that 10 billion a year could do by targeting other "proper" illnesses (not lifestyle choices) is immense.
I would argue that their actions are criminal. They know how to effectively treat type 2, collect money to do to "research" it, and then push what their corporate sponsors tell them.
There‘s nobody like Dr. Unwin
I luckily found his talks, interviews. He inspired me, I trusted him, because he truly wants to help and he speaks the truth. I consider it a privilege to be alive and witness these good doctors & researchers, yes Dr. Unwin is something extra special. God bless him!
Brilliant and heartening!
Well done Dr. Unwin.
Another powerful yet reassuring lecture from Dr Unwin…! ❤
Dr. Unwin should get the Nobel Prize.
The prize would have to be shared with very many other good doctors in various countries who are collaborating and doing the same work with the same results.
I've worked in safety systems in autos for years. Dr Unwins presentation is similar to one would make as an engineer, presenting data on a new product. Iterative, data based, reasonable conclusions. It inspires confidence. Notice how he is using clinical data from actual patients, over time. Compare this with association studies, with no cause and effect, and too many variables often to be reliable. Dr Unwin's sample sizes are small, of course, as they are from his own small practice. But to criticize his sample sizes as small (as some will) is to ignore the fact that his approach is repeatable, verifiable and supported by similar results by other LCDU docs, e.g. Dr Paul Mason and others. None of this is a surprise, yet it is, to many, even in the medical community. Bravo Dr Unwin.
Meat, the original human food.
Shameless biological necessity
Very clear, humble and inspirational presentation. Thank you so much for disregarding the (not so) NICE guidelines. Guidelines that promote the very diet and lifestyle that cause this very expensive and life threatening condition. When will we stop treating T2d as though it is the same as T1d?
The fast forward to poly-pharmacy approach that, almost a century of evidence, clearly doesn't work. Thank you for sharing! And thank you for taking the chance -both professionally and personally - of swimming against the current.
How long after going carnivore should you be 'safe' from developing T2 ??
I was diagnosed T2D in March 2022. 50 mmol. I went low carb, threw away the prescriptions and went back in August. 36 mmol. No more T2D.
Everybody is different. Low carb will take 3 months to a year. Not sure about carnivore. The more exercise the faster. Your carnivore cannot include seed oils and should include lots of electrolytes, balancing your salt and potassium.
Wonderful presentation Dr Unwin thank you 👏🫶🙏👍
Ok I have just come out of hospital. I was in for 10 days. And I was forced by my consultant to eat carbohydrate every day. My blood sugar jumped from 7 to 23 and everybody was 'recommending that I take Insulin'. I refused because the only reason I had hit 23 was because of the requirement to eat carb. And Insulin would just make me crave sugar and would just give me denuvolipogenesis! i.e make fatter! I told them I don't eat carb but they were seemingly doing anything they could to get me readdicted to sugar as fast as possible
What do you advise your patients to do in that context?
Surely you weren't force fed? Next time maybe let them know you have a special low carb dietary requirement and if that's ignored, eat only the low carb food that is served to you, or get someone to bring in healthy low carb. Fortunately you should be able to turn that high sugar around quickly now that you're home and able to get back to your own diet.
When my sister was in the hospital I brought her my own food.
Hospitals are poisoning people with the food as well as the drugs.
When I was in hospital, they did the same to me. I ate only the low carb items on my offerings, and left the rest. They weren’t happy, but they couldn’t force feed me. I basically under ate the entire time, because I couldn’t get extra proteins, and heaven forbid they allowed me ANY healthy fats! Margarine, gag! I got home and ate lots of bacon and eggs.
I know all about how good primary care can be and how badly I became unstuck because my GP practice over 4 years chose to break the 2015 courts act and chose to hinder rather than help. To repeatedly break GMC guidelines in respect to consent and numerous other ordinances, so much so they showed wilful Neglect and ill treatment under sections 21 to 25 of the courts act 2015
Fantastic video - thank you.
10 years of offering no drugs. How do you still have a license. Blasphemy. You and your wife are doing gods work. Keep on
His story's very interesting, he's been boo'd, heckled and spat on, but he's humbly pushed on. Very brave man.
I postulate insulin is a keeper of hunger. I see athletes that have insatiable hunger after a big activity and they can eat for 5 hours or days in a row. This was my case and still is. Minimize the spike will minimize the prolonged eating. Chronic firing of the insulin may not show up in the glucose response. Kraft testing needs to be standard. Or IGTT (insulin glucose tolerance test) I need to get one done.
THANKS!. A true difference and a resounding screw job to main stream. It is irrefutable. Keep on. I love you from across the pond. If only i knew this 30 years ago, as a wee lad that was puffy slow and couldn't keep up with my mates. I push this out to others that want to learn. It is easy to make changes to those that want to do better. Many will follow the guidelines and regular shill dr's. Never again. Cheers mate. I need me some high fat keto Pastie or beef fat fried fish and chips.
I think doctors need to be more educated about nutrition.
I have some experience with doctors and legit no one ever came the idea to talk with me about diet. It's so insane.
Yes but the reason is all the food stuff is Snake Oil really. Not what they see as science based. Likes of 5 a day rabbit food, completely invented. Sugar is bad, just made up. As is the entire new fad so called ultra processed food. All to sell diet plans supplements run YT channels etc.
❤
Treat the symptoms not the disease.
Yhe curry.... whats ingredients?
Plenty of fat I hope.
Shame my Drs and nurses are so poor on diabetes, plus ignore the hyperinsulinemia which causes insulin resistance, plus almost half of people with normal HBA1C are ramped up with insulin, damaging them way before diagnosed with T2D.
Listen to Professor Benjamin Bikman
How dare you reduce Big Pharmas profit margin, 😄keep up the good work.
Let me guess, the 3% with worse results simply didn't follow the advice and kept eating high carbs?
@szkoclaw hello how are you doing... I know of someone that might be able to help
It would be nice if the keto and carnivore community knew how to get the hum out of that microphone. It’s easy to do if you just try.
Carnivore diet sounds good to me 👍😊
Carnivore 💪 for great health!
But low carb needs high proper fat really so we die from heart disease instead. Besides carbs ARE food. Leaves are not. Thing about the food you mention, it is revolting and inedible. Saw the original man on YT who found the 'cure' for tpy2 he said if you had it for too long it does not work which seems to relate to your numbers too. Living forever eating revolting food is not worth it.
