She is brilliant. I was diagnosed with type 2 last year. I've been intermittent fasting and have cut carbs almost to nothing, and I juice celery everyday, and apple cider vinegar. I've lost 30 lbs and am no longer insulin resistant. Thank You

This amazing woman changed my life with this 18 minute video. I reversed type 2 diabetes over 3 years ago and I am in the best shape I have ever been in. I even hiked the 2194 mile Appalachian Trail in 2022. Thank you Dr. Sarah! I’m never going back to obesity and diabetes!
She's only saying loose weight. What if you're under weight? She's putting us all in the same basket. Diabetes is not caused by being over weight. She won't answer!
We will miss you Dr. Sarah. You were one of the pioneers in bringing a new health paradigm to the masses. It takes courage to go against the stream and tell people to do the opposite of the official guide lines in order to get healthy. Thanks to your work, millions are better off. Your legacy will live on.
I reversed mine. Dr prescribed Metformin and I didn't want to take it - wanted to change my diet instead. So I started exercising 30 minutes a day and ate lower carb while intermittent fasting. Went from 10.2 to 5.4 in 3 months. Good luck - you can do it!
Keto + Intermittent Fasting (i do One Meal A Day /OMAD but generally its 16:8) made me improve my health significantly. The most important thing is to keep yourself busy in the first few days to suppress a lot of negative mental/emotional symptoms. Once you’re in “the zone” it gets way way easier. Also do “cheat meals” instead of “cheat days” so you can recover faster from social indulgences ^^
This video has so much great information, I suggest that viewers can also search Molemen Herbs on RUclips, they have several natural remedies to help cure and reverse different deadly diseases and STDs, I was fortunate to get a cure for my herpes diagnosis with the help of their medicine.
I appreciate that this Doctor doesn't BS for the first 10 minutes. She cuts to the chase and spits out fact after fact. I wish all speakers were like her. Thank You Sarah!
TED should not be taken as fact. Most of it is personal opinion and is not founded in valid science. Don't assume because a speaker sounds like an expert who knows what they are talking about is correct or stating fact.
Such passion and compassion, no B/S. plain and simply talking. I got more info in a few minutes than a lot more video I watched. I’m definitely going to be following this lady. THANK YOU, Sarah!
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last year and I’m so grateful I found this video. I am no longer on insulin and have lost almost 50 pounds. I still have a ways to go for my goal, but this really does make a huge difference. My A1C went from 9.4 (I found out when I was hospitalized for covid) and now it’s 5.6!
@@maggieiribarren2764 you can do it! I took this information seriously, started walking 30 minutes a day and eating the way she mentioned and it seriously changed everything. I'm down 54 pounds now and blood sugar has been great.
On Jan 01 2018 I was diagnosed as Type 2 diabetic. My Blood sugar was in the high 500's. I know a walking time bomb. I watched this video and subsequently implemented the doctor's advice in my lifestyle. Fast forward to February 13, 2018. After recording all my blood sugar readings it showed of average range of 91 to 101. My doctor's first word to me were "it's a miracle" you are no longer a diabetic. I can't go back to eating like before, I just need to keep eating and exercising the way I have been the last six weeks. A VERY BIG THANK YOU , to Doctor SARAH HALBERG!....Folks it can be done.
Joe, Very inspiring story! I have a question: how did you actually monitor your sugar levels so that you could slowly decrease insulin? I'm in a similar situation here, have been eating low-carb for about two weeks now, but my bloodsugar levels don't really want to go down UNLESS I take the usual insulin shots ..., I mean, all in all, they're a little bit lower than before and, what's important, I no longer have these spikes, these roller coaster rides with my bloodsugar. How did you do it? Thanks for your time!
@@colettejacinthia9405 - My wife is a type 2 diabetic and has been trying the diet since January 2. She has lost 20 lbs and her blood sugar is in the desired range. She still takes insulin, though.
I can guarantee you that reversing Type II diabetes is possible...because I did it! I am a 58 yr old male who weighted 247 lbs last Feb when I started dieting. I now weigh 182 lbs and I'm on my way to a target of 168 lbs ("normal" for my height). I visited my Dr last week and had lab work done. My labs were normal WITHOUT meds ( I dropped them all, AMA, last April, so my latest labs were a solid baseline.) Let this be a word of encouragement to all of you...Type II diabetes can be defeated!!!
@@dianesoulstar2112 Very simple...complete elimination of all fast food, processed foods, breads & sweets & snack foods and a diet exclusively of fresh meats, veggies and fruits.
@@dianesoulstar2112 Be mindful of the "little things" that I've overlooked in the past. I.E. condiments, salad dressings (I only use ZERO calorie dressings), etc. You can be doing everything else right and still fail to progress unless you are careful about the details. FWIW...my new diet is MUCH lower in sodium, which has given me the added benefit of improving my hypertension. I hope this helps! Best wishes!
My family physician had me watch this very video in the examination room. My life changed that day, back in May, and now I’m down 55 pounds with beautiful blood work.
Mina Jung I live in the obese capital of the United States. Where beer flows like rivers and I’m surrounded by the best food in the world. Louisiana. I’m living proof you can thrive here and be healthy.
Eighteen minutes and Eleven seconds and my life is going to be forever changed. Thank you Dr. Hallberg! Not only an amazing Dr. but an excellent speaker!!
I am 72 and on a Keto/Carnivore diet. I have lost 60 lbs in 4 months... blood sugars down from 136 to 7... never felt better in my life. I eat grass-fed fatty beef mostly.. and organic salad type veggies, meats and dairy and sardines or wild-caught fish. My chol is fine and everything else is good. Oh.. and never hungry and zero cravings. :)
Randy Lin, 7 or 70 mg/dL? Also, steak forever! (Also, fish is awesome!) This doesn’t just work for T2. I’m T1, started low carb right out of the hospital after reading book by Dr. Richard K Bernstein, pioneer of low carb, (if he’s still around, then he is one of the only T1s in his 90s). Currently 4.8 A1C, staying between 70-100 with the occasional 120 or 60 (by occasional, mean almost all the time.
She's a doctor, and she's publicly stating that pharmaceuticals make money -off of our suffering?- Respect. Most doctors _I know_ cleverly doge topics like this.
Yep...Heaven help her when she tries to find funding, huh!?! Maybe the Dairy Council, dairy being a major source of Fats in our diets, would help support her efforts.
Get some excercise so the muscles can use more glucose a lack of excersise is the biggest factor causeing diebetes. Being a doctor you are very miss guided about diet. We do neeb carbs to control blood sugar in healthly manner. Avoid all proccessed carbs and eat whats natural
@@herbbowler2461 No, no, no. She's right almost 100%🤔 Obesity is not disease. It is a symptom of tragic metabolism of horrible food. The rest? She's nailed it 👍You are very misinformed about human biology.
If your allergic to peanuts, do you keep eating peanut butter, and then jab an epi pen into your body so you don't die. Thats pretty much what modern medicine has been doing with diabetes care. I am down 130 pounds, and about to break through the no longer diabetic barrier in my next blood test. This woman is a hero for all she has put herself through for us.
Type 1 diabetes is when your body is allergic to the cells that produce insulin. With DM1 you have to stick yourself with insulin no matter what. DM2 however, yes, that is essentially a carbohydrate allergy.
@@ellenorbjornsdottir1166 from what I've read or heard others say, type 1 is actually the cells in the pancreas which are supposed to produce insulin CAN'T for some reason, not that your body is allergic to the cells. And the more someone reduces their carb intake, the less insulin they need to take. Keto is still the ideal diet for someone with type 1, to minimize their required insulin as much as possible.
I'm actually really emotional after watching this. This is how all physicians should be. This is what medicine should be about. I hope word spreads about this and reaches all those who need it most.
Sarah was dealt a low blow with cancer in the last few years. Lung cancer. It wasn't looking positive for a while but her latest update was very good news - her cancer may be gone. Amazing women and I hope she is with us for many more decades!
That's a bit of a leap, to assume anyone is trying to keep people sick. Maybe, just maybe, this way of eating isn't possible, let alone sustainable, for most people. Did you notice she didn't mention any studies saying what percent of people are able to eat this way, and sustain it, and their A1c results for 10 years?
I am a Type 1 diagnosed at age 58. After hospital discharge in 2011, a friend/diabetic educator told me to IGNORE the American Diabetes Association recommendations or I would be fat first and deceased in less than 10-years. Because of his advice and my dedication to monitoring the food I eat, my semi-annual Ac1 is 5.3. I no longer have hunger pains, no longer experience food cravings, my insulin requirements are minimal. Knowledge is power!
SI Beez That is great! Imagine if you didn't have this friend, like 99% of other newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetics. They eat ADA-recommended "healthy" whole grains, guaranteeing them a life of diabetes, deteriorating health, and expensive insulin and medication. And all it takes to stop it is a simple change in diet. The ADA, no doubt, is a criminal organization that does not want this word to get out because it would almost put them out of business (there are not enough Type 1's to sustain their bloated organization). A pox on them.
Eric K Not criminal. Don't put on a tinfoil hat. Face reality. The ADA have simply acted "by committee" to draw up "guidelines" based on an incomplete, in fact almost non-existent, data base. There has been almost NO significant human (clinical) research on dietary effects on diabetes either funded or published in the last 30 years. Blame the NIH and the various private funding organization (yes, including the ADA) for not supporting this type of research.
oldflute That's because a cure is bad for business. They have done everything in their far reaching power to suppress that kind of research. Better to eat uncured bacon and open pastured, no grain fed chicken eggs than a bowl of cereal? Dietary Heresy!
I'm type 1 diagnosed at age 9 over 40 years ago. When I was in my teens, the ADA started getting afraid of fat and suggesting a larger and larger proportion of carbohydrates for diabetics -- and I listened. Decades of skimmed milk and breakfast cereals and black coffee and rice and steamed wheat berries... then the diabetic retinopathy and the neuropathy and impotence... the endless nagging from my doctors, the increased doses of insulin that ensured an inexorable gain of weight... You're very fortunate that you've learned the right way early on. I've been on low-carb-high-fat for about six years and it's helped a lot but much irreversible damage has been done.

This changed my life. The first video I watched and I started to take control immediately. Went from 9.8% A1C to 5.3% in 6 months. I still tell anyone diagnosed with diabetes to watch this and start taking control.
@@juanc4065 Try using chromium Picolinate 250 and Alpha lipoic Acid 600. Take one of each with an empty stomach. Start walking, lower your carb intake and no sugar. Instead use monk fruit or stevia organic. Hope this helps
Last year I was diagnosed with type 2 aged 57. I changed my life to low carbs, less than 30g a day. This week , 6 months later . Blood sugar 38, lost 2 stone, lower BP. Took up running and feel awesome . Thank you
So upset to hear Sarah passed away from stage 4 lung cancer this past week end of March 2022. She has saved so many people from dying themselves with her work. My GP uses her methods and we both have turned our Diabetes around too. My GP acts like your best girl friend. So now we all know the name of an angel in Heaven. I wish her peace in heaven and God bless her three children and husband. She left us all too soon, but God needed her more I guess? RIP Sarah. :--)
I'm sorry she passed away. This is the first time I come across this video. We need more doctors like her. I was told I was diabetic and was able to reverse my diabetes to below pre-diabetes in 7 months with what she is saying to do. I only eat lean fats (fish, turkey, chicken). It's possible but we are literally addicted to carbs and sugars and people find it hard to give them up. I no longer crave them but I was like a junky in withdrawal when I refused to become a statistic.
As much as I respect her and her effort, I have to say that before you take a keto diet, find yourself a professional that could prevent you from making big mistakes. Keto diet is not scientifically recommended and I would say too extreme. A good solution is to take good carbs, exercise and follow advice from your doctor.
@@hujack3747 There are two kinds of patients. One that asks "Dr., what should I take?" and the other "Dr, what should I do?". Don't you think for one minute that there are good carbs. And what are these mistakes you're talking about when going Keto? If you go by what is scientifically recommended (aren't most studies flawed by design or must have a specific outcome? Remember Sarah's words about the money that's keeping people sick?), you're just another lemming of the dietary guidelines!
What most people who are hopelessly addicted to carbs and sugar don't realize it is that you will literally only spend about a week in discomfort when you cut it loose. Once the week of no sugar no carbs passes, you will feel absolutely incredible and will wonder why you were living the way you were.
Sarah you rock! Been a nurse, lab technician and ran a medical reference laboratory. Then finally got out of allopathic medicine and in 2008 got a degree in natural health and nutrition,. I have to say your advice is spot on, honest and will be a blessing to everyone who listens. God bless you.
I did it. You can do it, too. I gave up bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, juice, sweets, all fast food. Cold turkey. And I walked 20 minutes every day. Within 2 weeks I no longer craved any of those foods and in 2 months I was off insulin. Another 3 weeks and I was off metformin, too. That was 11 years ago. My A1C was 11.8 when diagnosed. It has been in the 5's every test in past 11 years. I refuse to be diabetic. I refuse to live on a merry-go-round of drugs that treat one symptom and cause another. That's not living.
Taking carbs out of your diet is not healthy nor sustainable, we need carbs. Of course everything should be in balance according to exercise levels, but we need carbs. As eating too many carbs makes problem, not eating them makes problems too. Long term.
@@dianed4190 ok great!! I’m telling you because dieting lead to me having an eating disorder for years, I didn’t want to see it but yeah clearly I had a proble’. When I reintroduced those banned foods my body went into shock, edema, night sweats, weight gain, stomach problems. My advice would be, ear all food groups, don’t restrict, just eat in balance. All the best.
I am so sorry to hear that Dr. Hallberg died from lung cancer in 2022. I saw this video in 2017 when I was recovering from two kinds of endometrial cancer. At the same time, I was diagnosed with diabetes. By following her advice, I reversed the diabetes and lost 40 pounds. I no longer am diagnosed with diabetes. Actually my doctor said that she considers me "a diet-controlled diabetic". I've also been free of cancer for six years. It's not just what I eat, it's also getting more exercise. I moved to Mexico and live in a small mountain town without a car. I walk everywhere. I never got into eating baked goods made with non-grain based flours, but I'm going to try that. I usually break my fast with a breakfast of either quinoa or some kind of eggs, usually with lots of veggies. It doesn't spike my blood sugar the way that oatmeal, yogurt and other things I used to have for breakfast did. I do eat avocadoes every day. So wonderful to live in Michoacan where they are plentiful year-round. I also have locally-made butter, which is the best. My advice to anyone with cancer or diabetes is to take it as a wake-up call that you need to take better care of your health.
So sorry to hear that we have lost her. At least her video is still available to spread the message. May she rest in peace, and may her family find comfort in their memories of this fine and dedicated person.
Dr Sarah was one of those who gave me hope when i got my diagnosis of type2 diabetes. I was diagnosed with an a1c of 10.5. Amidst all doom and gloom, watching this very video of her not just gave me hope to live and survive but also a plan of action to get to a better happier healthier place. This is something my own physician could not do :). Today 5 years down the line, a low carb lifestyle that maam prescribed enables me to live a "normal" , medication free , insulin free life. I have had my a1c in the normal range six months after my diagnosis till now. Maam i want yo say this to you and i hope u can hear me - i never had the chance to meet you. I have a lot of respect and gratitude for you and your contribution to the medical field. I feel deep love for you. I came to know about your sad demise and your long struggle with cancer recently. I am sorry to hear that. I feel a deep sense of loss with your passing. You will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for all that you did for me and your patients. My deepest heartfelt condolence to Dr Sarahs family. I hope the lord gives you the courage and strength to cope. My thoughts and prayers will be with you. May your soul rest in peace Dr Sarah. 🙏🙏🙏
@Dummy Ampm3 I was put on medications immediately. Within 6 months with medications and low carb lifestyle my a1c came within the normal range. Another six months down the line my doctors were able to get me off all meds since low carb lifestyle on its own kept my a1c in the range of lowers 5s. In that year and half i also went back to an active lifestyle , lost most of excess pounds. Sure that helped. That being said we all have our own journeys. Seems like you are making good progress too. Good luck and stay blessed.
@@sandykhp that is awesome! But please get a Kraft insulin response test, A1C & other FASTING glucose/insulin tests are pointless to assess insulin resistance. Dr Jamnadas explains it so well
@@neoflyboy Dr Hallberg is talking about a low carb diet. Low carb is not low calorie. In fact, in the study you cited 30% participants did not achieve remission even after experiencing weight loss. Watch this video again to understand why it is low carbs, not calories, that's key in reversing T2D.
Exactly I have been diabetic for 20 years and it comes to the point of not having the money to purchase the food that would benefit me or reverse the diabetes . Olive oil is expensive, So is the coconut flour and all of the awesome fresh vegetables even the coconut milk I buy it’s more than the regular milk and the list goes on .
Exactly. I can't afford coconut and almond flour. Most food in my country are organic, but starchy.. again carbs. I also can't afford things like xylitol and erythritol and my country produces sugar. A head of lettuce in the grocery store that only lasts two meals is $4 US, 1kg of rice is less than $2 US and lasts five meals. When you consider that I don't make much money and I have other things to do with my income, it's easier to just buy the food that makes that possible, as I reason that all I need is fuel to keep me going to achieve my goals. Then, I overeat for obvious reasons and the vicious cycle continues.
Well done Dr Sarah. Thank you for your tireless work. You have changed my life. She has a great obituary. In it she is quoted to have said, " I went to medical school - because I was pissed." What passion!
@@RobertHolster1TY. I'm only guessing but she was probably exposed to radiation or such at some point. What a terrible loss. I'm 10 months carnivore now and never looking back at a very healthy 77.
Awesome. My A1C was at 14 in January. I almost had a stoke. Lost my vision. I gave up soda and sugary drinks. Six months later I lost 80 pounds and my A1C was at 5.3. Its a daily battle that I decided to win. 😊
@@msladyg32 you can do it, if you really want to get down fast and really stop craving sweets is go Carnivore for at least until you get your A1c to we’re you want. Good luck 🍀 to you, you can do it. Just a thought ❤

@@ALinn-vr3nl Her point was to show the effectiveness of the experiments presented, regardless of its sustainability level. Have you spent time in a major health care system? They most definitely are finically based, with pharm being the worst.
OMG, I just learned of her death. What a true tragedy. It was people like her that helped me get off of 3 insulin shots a day and in fact, no diabetes medication at all. I shall forever remember and appreciate her!!! God bless.
My experience: I followed her rules after going through chemo for cancer and then being diagnosed with diabetes Type 2 (apparently prednisone contributed to that). It's now 6 months later and I am no longer diabetic, not even pre-diabetic.
Will always remember this lady. I owe her a debt of gratitude for helping get started on keto. Am now without meds after suffering from diabetes and two heart attacks including a heart bypass and have not been this healthy in more than 20 years thanks to her. The greatest tribute I can give to her is to continue what she was doing by sharing what I have learnt from her to as many people as I can even though I am not a doctor. Thank you, Sarah Hallberg and your family. Thank you from a grateful man and his family.
@@r0ky_M low carb diet or ketogenic diet, who cares if one "cure" their diabetes, cancers and cardiovascular diseases are two leading causes of death and she died to a lung cancer. Again not so surprising lmao. The evidence is overwhelming favors whole food plant based diet and this woman went against the tide then died 💀 How arrogant was she
Once in awhile, you'll come across a doctor who gets it. I was recently told that I'm in the diabetic range with my A1C and this video is helping me understand why following the doctor's advice is not working. So sad to find out after Google-ing her that she passed away. Prayers to her family.
A1C and other FASTING glucose/insulin tests are highly inaccurate, no idea why doctors even bother with them. If you want to know how your levels really are, get a Kraft insulin test where they measure insulin after drinking sugar water. (Not just a GTT either, that doesn't test insulin!)
And, many "get it." They just are "get" incentivized to keep silent aka not use your conSCIENCE. Indeed, prayers for her family (and her beautiful soul). Sincerely, fellow "sweet" one....and healthcare professional who doesn't shut up and will refuse to say silent on all truths, facts and real news.
From what I learned in watching this video n research, everyone that has insulin resistance is not diabetic n all diabetics don’t have insulin resistance???? So, does the keto diet work better for those with DM or those with IR???? Or both????
Dear! I've just learned that she passed away from lung cancer! I was just happy to see that there is still doctors like her that scream out the truths without fear and It was very exciting. Until... I knew that she's just passed away, it just hurts. RIP Dr. Sarah.
Very informative. Sad to hear she passed away. I just got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and the first thing my doctor said is that were not putting you on medication right away, because we want to try to reverse it with diet and exercise. This is why I love my doctor. Too many people and industries are okay with letting other people suffer as long as it makes them money.
That's an incredible doctor! They usually want you on statins.....YOU CAN DO IT! It can be difficult LONG TERM, but not everyone is a sugar addict like me. The food industry is geared to make you fail, but educate yourself and stay with it!
diet and exercise are the guidelines for helping diabetics reach remission (aka "reversal"). Unfortunately, keto is extremely devoid of nutrients including antioxidants. Antioxidants fight against oxidative damage. Shockingly, the speaker in this video died of non-smoker lung cancer. I wonder if a diet rich in antioxidants would have inhibited her lung cancer formation.
@@denissemitchell9891 It's hard to say if diet could have done anything for her. She tested positive for the gene that makes people very likely to get lung cancer no matter what. She talked about it in an interview with Dr. Atia.
Even in her passing she continues to touch and improve our lives. I have hope because of her. The world definitely needs more doctors like her. May God provide her family friends and coworkers the strength and peace her loss has brought. I’m hurting and I didn’t even know her. Her legacy will live on.
I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes last October. I first viewed this video researching my diabetes at that time. It just made sense to me. I started looking into low carb diets and after 7 months of a high fat, low carb (HFLC) diet my endocrinologist has told me I no longer need my medications and she is amazed at how well I controlled my blood sugar levels. The side benefit is a loss of nearly 40 pounds. My high blood pressure has also been reduced dramatically. A HFLC diet has worked for me. I'm off medications, I feel great and I'm still shedding pounds. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Sarah.
John S And what happens to your blood glucose level after you exercise? Does it remain high for an extended period of time? (longer than that of somebody without diabetes type-2)
I’m saddened to know she passed away. Amazing doctor! I wish all doctors were like her. Unfortunately most doctors treat only the symptoms with medication when they need to be treating the cause which is what you eat. Dr Sarah is spot on in what she taught her patients.
One of the best lecture on busting the myths of Type-2 diabetes. my words probably won't suffice to appreciate the greatness of Dr. Sarah Hallberg..... She is giving life to hopeless people... Lot of respect and regard from India.
This is undoubtedly one of the BEST lectures on the topic! It is (1) objective, (2) rooted in experience and scientific research, and (3) imbued with genuine care for sick fellow-humans. Such brilliancy, compassion and action help make the world a much better place for all!
Notice she doesn't tell us what percent of people are able to stick to this dietary advice long-term. Nor does she tell us what happens to their health after this advice. Restrictive eating is a set-up for a binge, and for a restrict-binge eating disorder. I encourage you to sign up for eating disorder dietitian Christy Harrison's free weekly newsletter on eating disorder recovery. She cites the research on the harmfulness of restrictive eating.
@@ALinn-vr3nl Well. I lost 20 kg with low carb diet, basically restoring my metabolism to work as it should. Now I eat pretty much anything I want and if my weight starts to rise I just need to cut carbs for a while. At least I don't need to follow low-carb forever, more like it's way to reset body and let it recover and heal if I go overboard with sweet stuffs.
@@ALinn-vr3nl Except sometimes you have to HAVE a restrictive Diet. A diabetic person can not drink coke, or certain fruits even occasionally because it’s simply a question of life or death. Would you rather limit your alimentation or die?
What a tragic loss; this video started my keto journey. I would not be where I am today, 120 pounds lighter and 5.3 a1c if I had not seen this talk. God speed Dr. Hallberg.
I was diagnosed with T2D 20 months ago. With an A1C of 6.7, I started researching low carb healthy eating and decided this was for me. Within six months I had dropped my A1C down to 5.6 and now 20 months later my A1C is below 5.0 with an eAG of 83 and daily FBS’s in the low to mid 80’s. In addition, I’ve lost 130 pounds and I’m down in my weight to where I was 50 years ago when we got married. I live by the mantra that my T2D is in remission instead of being reversed because I know that if I don’t eat and live this healthy lifestyle I can easily be back where I started 20 months ago and I NEVER intend on going there again - EVER!
Sarah helped me turn my health and life around. I’m sad to hear hers ended. I never met her, just listened and applied. She made a difference, efficiently using the fleeting time we’re given here. I’m thankful she did.
I'm so sad to hear Dr. Hallberg has passed away. Her body is gone, but her spirit and energy obviously live on. She just changed my life completely. Thank you so much, Dr. Hallberg. The Lord called her home because her work was done and earth shaking. I will never forget this video.
Omg..I'm so bummed. I wanted to share a great breakthrough with Dr. Hallberg to find she passed. This was a wonderful talk. How sad to loose someone so brilliant and strong. Please continue to search for your own proof, regarding the power of our own body.
@@carolanammirata1028 would you please share this groundbreaking info with me- I got sick over 20yrs ago, and I am in search of info-to put all the puzzle pieces together. So far, she is spot on. My mother and grandmother were diabetic=my grandmother was not diagnose until she was in her 70's, and her doctor said ( I remember this as clear as it was only yesterday )= not need for her to change anything, she has lived her life. And I remember=lots of carbohydrates were consumed-my grandmother also got Alzheimer's-really bad-really fast. My mother lived for cake-she was told she had to go on insulin, she was taking metformin-without modifying her diet. Only after she changed her diet and implemented walking into her routine = she had just retired from being a cleaning lady at the local school. So all that physical activity was gone. I was diagnosed being Hypoglycemic=chronic low blood sugar, yes so I always had to eat=and the pounds kept on piling on-even though I never had a problem in my younger years. The advice from doctors was vague. I just have to figure out a better eating plan=which actually works for me. I would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance. May you be blessed.
I am just reading that Dr. Hallberg passed last year! Dr. Hallbert, I hope you can see this post in heaven! I am so grateful to you and this video. At 56, I was a few years into an on-call 24/7 stressful job that didn't allow me the time to do anything besides work, I was tired, had gained 20 lbs., had pre-diabetes and my overall cholesterol was 223. I was offered statins by my doctor but, told him, no thank you, "I broke it. I need to fix it". I found your video. I ramped up slowly, doing low GPS when I couldn't do no GPS but, always aiming for and returning to the "no". I lost 15 lbs the first year and then a year later 5 more. Not huge numbers but, exactly what I needed. I eat so much healthier now. I have the energy to exercise again, no longer have pre-diabetes and my overall cholesterol is just under 200. Sooo grateful. God bless you in heaven and your family here.
I was deeply saddened to hear of Dr. Hallberg's passing and want to extend my condolences to her love ones. For those unaware, she suddenly discovered she had stage 4 lung cancer. I have insulin resistance and have been trying to reverse this with low carbs. This sad news will redouble my efforts and if I am successful will be another instant of her unknowingly helping yet another person. Her efforts have been truly astounding and her passing a sad day for all
This is not as hard to do as you fear. My doc told me to cut out white carbs, which I did, and I lost 25 kg in a few months. What a great motivation that was and is to stay off the carbs. I no long even want the damn things any more, because I know how well this worked for me. If I want to snack, olives, cheese and salami are so much more satisfying than chips, candy, pastries etc. Best yet, the snack urge goes way down when not eating carbs. There are enough other good foods to get you through the rest of your life. You/we do not need any of the old favorites, because new (healthy) favorites arise. And, never be afraid to turn down a carb just to be polite. I just say "Thanks, but my doctor forbids this for me, and s/he has been right so far." People accept that you are making the effort and everyone who has seen the newer, slimmer you will support you. So, just dare to commit yourself, which means don't cheat. Use the gains in your health to stay on the right path. Best wishes.
Listened to her TED Talk the first time as I lay in my hospital bed after just being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes the last week of March. She gave me hope that I could be ok. Rest in peace and Godspeed! You've touched so many!
Just got diagnosed June 14th 2022... my A1C is 6.7 and Glucose 110. I'm so afraid but after listening to her TED Talk has helped me tremendously. I wish you complete wellness as we're both on this journey.
I will be forever grateful for Dr. Sarah. My condolences to her precious husband and family. Gone but I will never forget this pioneer in diabetic reversal.
1/15/23- So sad to hear that this unique, brave person passed away. She was brave and so passionate for the benefit of others. This is the kind of doctors we need.
I no longer take diabetes meds and my sugars are normal. I've lost weight and feel more energetic. A whole host of complications, yeast infections, chronic constipation, arthritis, sleeping problems, anxiety, leg cramps are either gone or way diminished. The diet leaves me feeling satisfied and not feeling hungry. I've rolled back at least 20 years of my life. Thanks to you and others like you for a new wonderful life.
Please share an example of what you eat. I am a carbaholic and love all the things I know I'm not supposed to eat. I'm 61 and at least 30 lbs overweight while taking Metformin 2x/day. I need real ideas for enjoyable food please.

@@hussainbhavnagarwala2596 Avocado, Nuts(walnuts,pecans etc, Ghee,butter,Olive oil,Coconut oil, Fatty meats). Nuts are especially dense in calories so if you want to lose weight don't go overboard. Look up Keto diet on youtube
I was diagnosed two years ago. I cut my total calories to around 1900 daily, cut out all desserts and most bread rice and potatoes, added five hours more exercise a week and lost 25 pounds. I am in remission without drugs. The thing that helped me the most was buying a scale and getting on it every day.
I have been preaching keto since 2018, never knowing who Dr. Hallberg was. I find this video now only to be saddened that she's no longer here. What a great doctor. She is probably a big part of how I found out about keto, never knowing all the knowledge she was sharing.
Over 3 years ago, I watched this video while waiting to pick my granddaughter up from school. It began a journey that saved my life! I had recently been diagnosed with diabetes after years of coming close but not quite there. When I watched this talk and heard how much money is being made each year because of the "incurable & progressive" disease of diabetes. Knowing how money motivates people, I knew that would not be my path. Thanks to good people, I found KETO and have followed it for over 3 years. Down over 50 pounds and really enjoying eating again. The best part is that i am no longer diabetic! Thanks, Dr. Sarah and others like you who are bucking the trends and getting the real message out. You are winning but it will take time for society to change because we are being told that apples & bananas are good for us. Technology makes it possible to get these messages out and I pray that more people will listen.
I was diagnosed with diabetes 8 months ago at the age of 22, and it completely shocked me. I had no idea what to do until I came across this amazing video that changed my life. Since then, I've made incredible progress. I started at 181 lbs, and now I'm down to 146 lbs. As a lifelong vegan, I realized that my Asian diet, which included a lot of rice, combined with my lack of exercise, contributed to my type 2 diabetes. But things have turned around for me. I now have oatmeal for breakfast and lunch, drink plenty of water every day, and strive to achieve 6000 steps daily. I also incorporate 30 minutes of exercise, burning around 100-200 calories per session. After 8 months of determination and hard work, I am thrilled to say that my A1C has dropped to 5.2. I never thought I would be able to achieve such amazing results without even having to poke my finger for blood tests. I've been following a low-carb diet since my diagnosis, and it has made a world of difference. I want to share my story to inspire others. Yes, type 2 diabetes can be reversed! I did it, and I believe you can do it too. Trust yourself and make the necessary changes. You have the power to take control of your health and live a vibrant life.
How am I just finding this video? My whole family has Type 2 Diabetes. I was right there with them until i decided to break the cycle and go Keto. Thank you for spreading the word! It is my mission to help those better understand that they do not have to live with this sickness!
It is fantastic. I have reversed my pre diabetes and have seen many success stories of people doing the same with Diabetes! Definitley talk to a doctor ❤ good luck!
Cheers for the video content! Excuse me for chiming in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried - Loowarn Inconceivable Desire (do a search on google)? It is a great one off guide for getting rid of diabetes type 2 minus the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my old buddy Taylor at very last got astronomical success with it.
@KnowingThereIsMore KnowledgeToWisdom The point went completely above your head. They were quoting the talk and you are arguing against something you think it means rather than what it actually means. The meaning is to not use medication to treat people when the problem is the diet, change the diet.
In the last 40 years we have not CURED one single disease. Why? Because there's more money in 'managing' a disease than curing it. Cure it and the drug company gets a one-time payment, but develop drugs to manage the disease and the drug company has you by the balls for the rest of your life!
All this is stress and make everything worse.This is the same thing my doctor told me but at the end it get worse. Some of this doctor don't have experience rather they talk from the book. I will advice you to seek a herbal practitioner. I'm a living testimony. I was cure completely.
Thank you for sharing your inspiring TEDx talk on reversing Type 2 diabetes. Your approach of ignoring conventional guidelines and focusing on individualized care is both innovative and impactful. Your message is eye-opening and shows that there is hope for those suffering from this condition. Your passion for helping others and improving their health is evident and truly inspiring. Your talk has shed light on a different perspective and has motivated many to take control of their health. Your contribution to this field is invaluable and we appreciate the work you do. Great job!
I would love to know why over 4.5 k dislikes ?!! As someone with type 2 diabetes I can undoubtedly attest that this information is 100 percent spot on ! I went low carb about 2 months ago and now have no need for my diabetes medicine, I stopped taking them a month ago ! I feel absolutely great and I am losing weight ! I also exercise 4 days on , 1 day off rotation. Never going back to carbs again !
4.9K Dr.s that are going to lose money lol. 2 Months ago I was diagnosed with type 2. In 2 months of low carb, healthy eating I have lost 50 lbs so far. I still need the Metformin for now, but I'm hoping to get away from it and some other meds.
Excellent and very brave speech - A year ago I rebelled against the advice I was being given by doctors, nutritionists and Diabetes UK; I went low/zero carb and reversed my type 2 diabetes - everything that this lady said is true. Truth is a stranger in this world.
@@christinevitali8882 you need to aim for a maximum of 50 gramms, ideally get it down to 20, and no sugar. No pasta, rice or bread. No fruit!! as they have been cultivated to be sweet. Eat less meals. The best source for information is Dr. Berg on RUclips.
@@errolmagill1611 I second Dr berg he is a great source of information! Also Dr Ken berry & Jason Fung. For websites I'd recommend diet doctor. Diet doctor is the place I first learned about keto etc haha.
A fantastic TED Talk. It's the first time I've come across it and I'm shocked to learn it was made over 8 years ago. I do hope this will continue to feature prominently in the YT algorithm as there are so many people who need to know about this. And to discover this wonderfully passionate lady is no longer with us is just sad. Vale Sarah, we will never know how many lives you have both saved and will continue to save.
What a hero she is. I never got to TIID, but just being free of the cravings alone is a great reason to take the carbs way down. True hunger feels different, and it's very useful information!
Dr. Hallberg passed away from lung cancer, but she never smoked and claimed that anyone can get it. It was diagnosed just a few months after this video. Hmm very fishy and maybe the corporate "industry"was out to get her. RIP
This is truly one of the greatest presentations I've heard in a long time. I was diagnosed with T2 four months ago and decided to make a lifestyle change: no sugar and minimal carbs, 20 or less net a day. Lost 25 pounds and still going. No meds, and blood pressure normal. My mind is clearer than ever. Thanks for posting this video. I 🙏🏼 that anyone who is insulin resistant sees it and there life is changed for the best.
During the pandemic, I was consuming 500 grams of sugar per day give or take. Mostly sweet tea and cola. It got to the point where I could hardly function every day because of how sick I felt. I assumed I was having heart issues, possibly kidney issues, or liver damage. Maybe cancer. I wasn't sure what it was so I finally decided to begin a "self diagnosis experiment" where I quit consuming any sugars or carbs of any kind and begin intermittent fasting 16/8. The sugar and especially caffeine withdrawal was horrific. Blinding headaches and nausea. After about three days, mostly in bed, the headaches started to go away and the energy I began to feel came back like I hadn't felt in at least 5 years. Before, it was all I could do to stay awake after eating a meal. That went away almost immediately. I am now literally in a recovery process from how sick I was making myself due to my strong addiction to sugar and caffeine. I feel truly like a drug addict as I was ignoring my health just to get my all day fix of sugar and caffeine. Folks like Dr. Hallberg are modern day heroes for trying to get this info out to the public.
Hi Bob, you describe very much how I feel. Can I ask what you eat for breakfast as I struggle to think of things if I’m not having toast or cereal. I was thinking I might start having egg and bacon or avocado and smoked salmon? I’m glad you’re feeling better ☺️
Sugar, if I have to much, absolutely gets me sick. But I've never craved it. I'm no longer a fan of processed added sugar. Sugar from fruits and vegetables? Count me in. Sugar from rice? Count me in. Sugar from soda? Count me out. I have soda maybe 4 times a year now. It's all matcha green tea and water nowadays.
@@tallisinwonderland4724, For almost a year I rotate my breakfasts between omelet or 2 fried eggs/cheese/stir fried or steamed veggies, 1/2 cup 4% cottage cheese/ 1/4 cup blueberries/1/4 walnuts, 2 hard boiled eggs/ 1/4 walnuts/fresh veggies, and drink either water or coffee with 1 Tablespoon of heavy cream. It works, I’m not hungry all the time, & I’ve lost a bunch of weight.
I am not diabetic but I am insulin resistant. I have struggled for months following the advice of most medical professionals. I finally decided to try something more dramatic. I became a carnivore. I cut out all sugar and carbs. I would have less than 10g of carbs daily from cheese. I lost 35lbs. I am now transitioning to a keto style of eating where I can have low carb veggies. I know it was drastic, but it was what I needed, and now, as I add foods back into my diet, I can see if I have any sensitivities I may not have known about. I didn't know it, but asparagus makes me feel extremely bloated, and I don't tolerate it. It has been the best thing I ever did for myself. Quiting sugar and refined carbs has given me the freedom to feel good again. To anyone who thinks that they can't give up sugar... it is easier than you think. Eventually, after a few weeks, you won't crave sugar anymore.
Giving up sugar was easy for me but I can’t get onboard with eating meat. I just don’t get how eating dead animals helps humans???? I’ve never been big in eating meat. Seems meat would clog your arteries??? There’s soooo much confusion about what is best to eat for optimal health, I just don’t know what to believe!!!!
@@l.randle4902i read Dr Neal Barnard Reversing Diabetes and Mastering Diabetes by Cyrus Khambata. Or just search on youtube for their talks. Complete 180 degree from this advice. If you have problems eating meat, these books or talks by Dr Neal Barnard and Khambata might be something you want to take a look at.
I was pre-diabetic and hypertensive. At 5'6" 195 pounds. With a low carb modification I am no longer either of these and lost 35 pounds and feel great. The weight melted off and my blood pressure dropped like a rock to normal levels. My doctor had told me I was going to be on medication if I did not make a change and the side effects would have been miserable so I was highly motivated. This is now a life style for me. I will never go back to high carb foods as they are absolutely addictive. With any carbs over 20 it immediately triggers cravings. Break the chain and you set yourself free...
Very good information. But, Im sorry to disagree (about what doctors say), but doctors as well as nutritionists and dieticians DO NOT recommend that their insulin resistant patients eat lots of carbs. Quite the opposite. All I've ever heard is to stay away from high carbs diets, to lower one's carb intake and to focus on greens and vegetables that are not legumes. Thank you. Excellent presentation.
i have some issues with bloodsugar but i avoid the doctor, instead i went into really low carb. imidiatly like after 3-4 days i felt like iam no longer sick, it felt like i was eating poisen. more energy, less sleep, stable mood, no issues with bloodsugar.
Be carefull, what it means is you can manage your blood sugar and keep healthy without meds. That doesn't mean you're cured, which means, in a extreme situation, exp., 'porking' at a party, sugary foods alcohol, etc., you might have a dangerous spike.
OMG, I just found out about Dr Sarah's passing. This was the video that started my investigation into keto. Now, 40kg lighter (and still losing), my GP is stunned at the improvement in my diabetes. Thank you Dr Sarah.
Thank you so much Dr. Sarah. This video saved my life. I was pre-diabetes and was able to lose weight and maintain a healthy BMI by doing keto and intermittent fasting. RIP angel doctor.
I was diagnosed with a full-blown diabetes with an A1C level of 9.9 six months ago. The doctor put me through metformin for six months. I religiously followed her guidelines, lost 22 pounds and slashed A1C to 5.0. Not on the medication anymore. I am determined to maintain it not just for months but for years.
Please, please, search for Dr John McDougall and "the starch solution". He is very good at explaining the facts. He has been practicing for a long time, with a lot of long-term success.
@@kkscbuchalkalan9786 I switched to more traditional food such as whole buckwheat bread, vegetables, barley grits, foxtail millet etc. I totally cut sugar, white rice, white bread etc. I made a habit to walk at least 14000 steps/day and eat my evening meal before 7:00. No snacking. Lost 22 pounds 5 months. Weight loss is vital for diabetics (if you are over-weight). I would keep track of my blood sugar level checking at least once a week for first 1 month (in lab though I have a glucometer). I look a bit slim and skinny now but it paid me well. I feel better than before.
@@imrevadasz1086 I was on the McDougall diet for quite a while. I became very thin,very fast. And , yes, the diet kept my blood sugar low- it was 49! I was exhausted, a nervous wreck,had high triglycerides (302), low HDL (24), and was a weak,fatigued, out-of-it mess.
I'm deeply saddiened by the news of Dr. Sarah's death. THis one video changed my Type 2 diabetes life!. She answered more of my questions in 18 minutes than any doctor had ever been able to do. My A1C was 11.5 before watching this and in 6 months I got it down to 6.1. Her straight forward approach to this disease was what I needed. I have sent this video link out dozens of times in the last year so her reach lives on. RIP Dr. Sarah Hallberg.
This was one of the best and most informative talks on Diabetes. I am a pre - diabetic and I am changing my diet in significant way due to this Ted Talk. Thank you Sarah Hallberg!!!
Thomas Delauer and Dr. Eric Berg talk about this subject and appear to be really knowledgeable. I'm dealing with insulin resistance as well and I found them to be helpful.
@@jules8029 Dr Ken Berry and Dr Jason Fung are also very good on this subject, Thomas goes into great detail but he’s not medically trained, he just passes on what he’s learned
That's a bit of a leap she's making, to assume anyone is trying to keep people sick. Maybe, just maybe, this way of eating isn't possible, let alone sustainable, for most people. Did you notice she didn't mention any studies saying what percent of people are able to eat this way, and sustain it, and their A1c results for 10 years?
@@ALinn-vr3nl just as a heads up Dr Ken Berry is in the comments section; go to his YT channel and check out the info he has, with citations in each video; medicine has largely changed from the old model of keeping people healthy to keeping people sick because of the profiteering by big pharma; most, including many doctors, cannot see this, it’s not that they’re uneducated or even are aware but want to kill people/keep them unwell, but they tend toward caution with many new approaches to any illness, so they’d sooner stick with the orthodoxy than be seen to make a mistake that could end their career! But I and countless others are among those who have been told “diabetes is a chronic condition that you’ll just have to learn to live with, and which will eventually take your life; but here are some (multiple) meds that will at least stabilise the condition; at some point we’ll need to up the dosage of or even give you more pills, just to keep it stable……..oh and here’s some insulin to treat the worst effects of it because you’ve got it bad!” I, like most people, took that very badly and went home depressed, facing a bleak future; but after a short while that depression gave way to anger that I either wouldn’t grow old in any health to be able to enjoy it or I simply wouldn’t grow old! So I went on the internet (I know, how crazy, as if you’re gonna find answers there, right!); I googled “Is type 2 diabetes incurable?”; what came up mostly said the affirmative, but then I saw a link to one Dr Eric Berg….I thought well in for a penny in for a pound, I’m dying anyway so what’s the harm? Here I am five years later, I’ve reversed T2 diabetes, lost 5st, have bags more energy and look and feel like I did in my mid to late 20s! I’m 58. Low carb is VERY achievable as a lifestyle, I know, I’m not rich, I’ve got five kids and two grandchildren and I’m happily married; my oldest kids and my wife have watched in amazement as I’ve turned my health around and taken up my eating habits, including fasting, with nothing but GOOD effects from it; I’ll agree keto doesn’t suit everyone, but disagree that high or even medium carb is ok for anyone! Your body makes enough glucose without the need for ANY dietary glucose, from consumed proteins and fats, and in a healthy person there is only, and should only be, one teaspoon of sugar in their entire body at any given time, and then only through gluconeogenesis, not through consuming sweet stuff or carbs….
She is brilliant. I was diagnosed with type 2 last year. I've been intermittent fasting and have cut carbs almost to nothing, and I juice celery everyday, and apple cider vinegar. I've lost 30 lbs and am no longer insulin resistant. Thank You
I am diagnosed with type 2 this morning any suggestions??
It worked for me also👍 I am down 30 pounds also !!! I will do the celery, I have not tried that .

This amazing woman changed my life with this 18 minute video. I reversed type 2 diabetes over 3 years ago and I am in the best shape I have ever been in. I even hiked the 2194 mile Appalachian Trail in 2022. Thank you Dr. Sarah! I’m never going back to obesity and diabetes!
With or without medication, dude ?
Do you eat fruit?
Hey!!
How did you do this
How if I'm very under weight?
She's only saying loose weight. What if you're under weight? She's putting us all in the same basket. Diabetes is not caused by being over weight.
She won't answer!
We will miss you Dr. Sarah. You were one of the pioneers in bringing a new health paradigm to the masses. It takes courage to go against the stream and tell people to do the opposite of the official guide lines in order to get healthy. Thanks to your work, millions are better off. Your legacy will live on.
Mom.l.
There is no doubt these demons inside pharma industry took her away. She will be in HEAVEN no doubt.
Thank you for your advice Dr Sarah.
RIP
Dr Ekberg, You are a Leader.
We feel the same about you.
A truly energetic and lifesaving Doctor and educator! RIP
I was diagnosed two months ago. No one has told me I can reverse this. I am speechless - so full of hope for the first time.
I was at a nutritionist appointment today, and she told me it can't be reversed either. It can be, but it takes some effort.
I reversed mine. Dr prescribed Metformin and I didn't want to take it - wanted to change my diet instead. So I started exercising 30 minutes a day and ate lower carb while intermittent fasting. Went from 10.2 to 5.4 in 3 months. Good luck - you can do it!
I just got diagnosed two days ago:’)
Keto + Intermittent Fasting (i do One Meal A Day /OMAD but generally its 16:8) made me improve my health significantly. The most important thing is to keep yourself busy in the first few days to suppress a lot of negative mental/emotional symptoms. Once you’re in “the zone” it gets way way easier. Also do “cheat meals” instead of “cheat days” so you can recover faster from social indulgences ^^
@@MidnightWalnut thank you so much!
I love it when she said there's a lot of money to be made by keeping you sick...truer words have never been said.
This video has so much great information, I suggest that viewers can also search Molemen Herbs on RUclips, they have several natural remedies to help cure and reverse different deadly diseases and STDs, I was fortunate to get a cure for my herpes diagnosis with the help of their medicine.

I appreciate that this Doctor doesn't BS for the first 10 minutes. She cuts to the chase and spits out fact after fact. I wish all speakers were like her. Thank You Sarah!
Lol really.
Exactly. Well said.
Wouldn't be TED if they did.
TED should not be taken as fact. Most of it is personal opinion and is not founded in valid science. Don't assume because a speaker sounds like an expert who knows what they are talking about is correct or stating fact.
Such passion and compassion, no B/S. plain and simply talking. I got more info in a few minutes than a lot more video I watched. I’m definitely going to be following this lady. THANK YOU, Sarah!
" There is a lot of money to be made from keeping you sick ". this lady is a SAINT!!!! 100% correct.
Well, that’s how she makes her money. By telling obese people that they are not to blame because they can’t Google.
@tebytorozo RIP
@tebytorozo How strange for the doctor to be on Twitter 7 days ago. Who were you talking about?
@tebytorozo that is a flat out LIE.
How different is that from intentional murder. Most people are guilty of it without knowing.
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes last year and I’m so grateful I found this video. I am no longer on insulin and have lost almost 50 pounds. I still have a ways to go for my goal, but this really does make a huge difference. My A1C went from 9.4 (I found out when I was hospitalized for covid) and now it’s 5.6!
That gives me hope. Just found this video, just got diagnosed. I hope I can follow with diet and exercise too.
@@maggieiribarren2764 you can do it! I took this information seriously, started walking 30 minutes a day and eating the way she mentioned and it seriously changed everything. I'm down 54 pounds now and blood sugar has been great.
what kind of diet were u on to achieve this amazing results?
Wow!
Congrats!!!
On Jan 01 2018 I was diagnosed as Type 2 diabetic. My Blood sugar was in the high 500's. I know a walking time bomb. I watched this video and subsequently implemented the doctor's advice in my lifestyle. Fast forward to February 13, 2018. After recording all my blood sugar readings it showed of average range of 91 to 101. My doctor's first word to me were "it's a miracle" you are no longer a diabetic. I can't go back to eating like before, I just need to keep eating and exercising the way I have been the last six weeks. A VERY BIG THANK YOU , to Doctor SARAH HALBERG!....Folks it can be done.
Joe Gutierrez where is she at?
Joe, Very inspiring story! I have a question: how did you actually monitor your sugar levels so that you could slowly decrease insulin? I'm in a similar situation here, have been eating low-carb for about two weeks now, but my bloodsugar levels don't really want to go down UNLESS I take the usual insulin shots ..., I mean, all in all, they're a little bit lower than before and, what's important, I no longer have these spikes, these roller coaster rides with my bloodsugar. How did you do it? Thanks for your time!
Well done that's amazing!
I apologize for the intrusion, but did about ten "different people" post the same advertisement??
What kind of exercise do you do, the intensity and duration?
I tried her diet for a year. Lost 70 pounds and feel great! Thank you, Dr. Hallberg!
Thanks for sharing your good news.
What is her diet? and where can i find more info?
Yes what is her diet specifically. Thanks
Nevermind! Just kept listening and saw the 5 rules of the diet at 12:40.. thanks anyways :-) my sister is diabetic, gonna suggest it for her..
@@colettejacinthia9405 - My wife is a type 2 diabetic and has been trying the diet since January 2. She has lost 20 lbs and her blood sugar is in the desired range. She still takes insulin, though.
I can guarantee you that reversing Type II diabetes is possible...because I did it! I am a 58 yr old male who weighted 247 lbs last Feb when I started dieting. I now weigh 182 lbs and I'm on my way to a target of 168 lbs ("normal" for my height). I visited my Dr last week and had lab work done. My labs were normal WITHOUT meds ( I dropped them all, AMA, last April, so my latest labs were a solid baseline.) Let this be a word of encouragement to all of you...Type II diabetes can be defeated!!!

Get some excercise so the muscles can use more glucose a lack of excersise is the biggest factor causeing diebetes. Being a doctor you are very miss guided about diet. We do neeb carbs to control blood sugar in healthly manner. Avoid all proccessed carbs and eat whats natural

If your allergic to peanuts, do you keep eating peanut butter, and then jab an epi pen into your body so you don't die. Thats pretty much what modern medicine has been doing with diabetes care. I am down 130 pounds, and about to break through the no longer diabetic barrier in my next blood test. This woman is a hero for all she has put herself through for us.
Awesome work!!
Type 1 diabetes is when your body is allergic to the cells that produce insulin. With DM1 you have to stick yourself with insulin no matter what.
DM2 however, yes, that is essentially a carbohydrate allergy.
@@ellenorbjornsdottir1166 from what I've read or heard others say, type 1 is actually the cells in the pancreas which are supposed to produce insulin CAN'T for some reason, not that your body is allergic to the cells. And the more someone reduces their carb intake, the less insulin they need to take. Keto is still the ideal diet for someone with type 1, to minimize their required insulin as much as possible.
She is wrong.
YOU'RE
I am heart broken to learn Dr Hallberg has passed much much too soon. I hope she knew how much she meant to so many. ❤️
Agreed
I'm actually really emotional after watching this. This is how all physicians should be. This is what medicine should be about.
I hope word spreads about this and reaches all those who need it most.
Sarah was dealt a low blow with cancer in the last few years. Lung cancer. It wasn't looking positive for a while but her latest update was very good news - her cancer may be gone.
Amazing women and I hope she is with us for many more decades!
Totally agree!
That's a bit of a leap, to assume anyone is trying to keep people sick.
Maybe, just maybe, this way of eating isn't possible, let alone sustainable, for most people. Did you notice she didn't mention any studies saying what percent of people are able to eat this way, and sustain it, and their A1c results for 10 years?

I am a Type 1 diagnosed at age 58. After hospital discharge in 2011, a friend/diabetic educator told me to IGNORE the American Diabetes Association recommendations or I would be fat first and deceased in less than 10-years. Because of his advice and my dedication to monitoring the food I eat, my semi-annual Ac1 is 5.3. I no longer have hunger pains, no longer experience food cravings, my insulin requirements are minimal. Knowledge is power!
SI Beez That is great! Imagine if you didn't have this friend, like 99% of other newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetics. They eat ADA-recommended "healthy" whole grains, guaranteeing them a life of diabetes, deteriorating health, and expensive insulin and medication. And all it takes to stop it is a simple change in diet. The ADA, no doubt, is a criminal organization that does not want this word to get out because it would almost put them out of business (there are not enough Type 1's to sustain their bloated organization). A pox on them.
Eric K Not criminal. Don't put on a tinfoil hat. Face reality. The ADA have simply acted "by committee" to draw up "guidelines" based on an incomplete, in fact almost non-existent, data base. There has been almost NO significant human (clinical) research on dietary effects on diabetes either funded or published in the last 30 years. Blame the NIH and the various private funding organization (yes, including the ADA) for not supporting this type of research.
oldflute That's because a cure is bad for business. They have done everything in their far reaching power to suppress that kind of research. Better to eat uncured bacon and open pastured, no grain fed chicken eggs than a bowl of cereal? Dietary Heresy!
I'm type 1 diagnosed at age 9 over 40 years ago. When I was in my teens, the ADA started getting afraid of fat and suggesting a larger and larger proportion of carbohydrates for diabetics -- and I listened. Decades of skimmed milk and breakfast cereals and black coffee and rice and steamed wheat berries... then the diabetic retinopathy and the neuropathy and impotence... the endless nagging from my doctors, the increased doses of insulin that ensured an inexorable gain of weight... You're very fortunate that you've learned the right way early on. I've been on low-carb-high-fat for about six years and it's helped a lot but much irreversible damage has been done.

Last year I was diagnosed with type 2 aged 57. I changed my life to low carbs, less than 30g a day. This week , 6 months later . Blood sugar 38, lost 2 stone, lower BP. Took up running and feel awesome . Thank you
Congrats! Stick to it 👍
Keep up the great work
Awesome!!!
Skip the running. Do sprinting instead. Check out Dr. Sean O'Mara.
Glad to hear you’re doing well, but I had to do a double take - your blood sugar was 38?
Her work and life has been a blessing for so many of us diabetics. May she rest in peace.
So upset to hear Sarah passed away from stage 4 lung cancer this past week end of March 2022. She has saved so many people from dying themselves with her work. My GP uses her methods and we both have turned our Diabetes around too. My GP acts like your best girl friend. So now we all know the name of an angel in Heaven. I wish her peace in heaven and God bless her three children and husband. She left us all too soon, but God needed her more I guess? RIP Sarah. :--)
😢
No way!!!!
Darn't! I wish she could've had a chance to write a book, because we have only this 18 min video to learn from her.
This is the woman who taught me how to control my diabetes without medication 5 years ago. Thank you for saving me. So sorry you are gone now.
I'm sorry she passed away. This is the first time I come across this video. We need more doctors like her. I was told I was diabetic and was able to reverse my diabetes to below pre-diabetes in 7 months with what she is saying to do. I only eat lean fats (fish, turkey, chicken). It's possible but we are literally addicted to carbs and sugars and people find it hard to give them up. I no longer crave them but I was like a junky in withdrawal when I refused to become a statistic.
He was a very good person, I wish there were more people like him
@@kelseylorenzen He was a she.
As much as I respect her and her effort, I have to say that before you take a keto diet, find yourself a professional that could prevent you from making big mistakes. Keto diet is not scientifically recommended and I would say too extreme. A good solution is to take good carbs, exercise and follow advice from your doctor.
@@hujack3747 There are two kinds of patients. One that asks "Dr., what should I take?" and the other "Dr, what should I do?". Don't you think for one minute that there are good carbs. And what are these mistakes you're talking about when going Keto? If you go by what is scientifically recommended (aren't most studies flawed by design or must have a specific outcome? Remember Sarah's words about the money that's keeping people sick?), you're just another lemming of the dietary guidelines!
What most people who are hopelessly addicted to carbs and sugar don't realize it is that you will literally only spend about a week in discomfort when you cut it loose. Once the week of no sugar no carbs passes, you will feel absolutely incredible and will wonder why you were living the way you were.
Sarah you rock! Been a nurse, lab technician and ran a medical reference laboratory. Then finally got out of allopathic medicine and in 2008 got a degree in natural health and nutrition,. I have to say your advice is spot on, honest and will be a blessing to everyone who listens. God bless you.
I did it. You can do it, too.
I gave up bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, juice, sweets, all fast food. Cold turkey. And I walked 20 minutes every day. Within 2 weeks I no longer craved any of those foods and in 2 months I was off insulin. Another 3 weeks and I was off metformin, too. That was 11 years ago. My A1C was 11.8 when diagnosed. It has been in the 5's every test in past 11 years. I refuse to be diabetic. I refuse to live on a merry-go-round of drugs that treat one symptom and cause another. That's not living.
so inspiring, please share more of your experiences
Taking carbs out of your diet is not healthy nor sustainable, we need carbs. Of course everything should be in balance according to exercise levels, but we need carbs. As eating too many carbs makes problem, not eating them makes problems too. Long term.
@@Andy-vu1zs I did not take all carbs out of my diet. I took fast carbs out. Refined carbs out. I get plenty slow carbs, believe me!
Amen!
@@dianed4190 ok great!! I’m telling you because dieting lead to me having an eating disorder for years, I didn’t want to see it but yeah clearly I had a proble’. When I reintroduced those banned foods my body went into shock, edema, night sweats, weight gain, stomach problems. My advice would be, ear all food groups, don’t restrict, just eat in balance. All the best.
I am so sorry to hear that Dr. Hallberg died from lung cancer in 2022. I saw this video in 2017 when I was recovering from two kinds of endometrial cancer. At the same time, I was diagnosed with diabetes. By following her advice, I reversed the diabetes and lost 40 pounds. I no longer am diagnosed with diabetes. Actually my doctor said that she considers me "a diet-controlled diabetic". I've also been free of cancer for six years. It's not just what I eat, it's also getting more exercise. I moved to Mexico and live in a small mountain town without a car. I walk everywhere. I never got into eating baked goods made with non-grain based flours, but I'm going to try that. I usually break my fast with a breakfast of either quinoa or some kind of eggs, usually with lots of veggies. It doesn't spike my blood sugar the way that oatmeal, yogurt and other things I used to have for breakfast did. I do eat avocadoes every day. So wonderful to live in Michoacan where they are plentiful year-round. I also have locally-made butter, which is the best. My advice to anyone with cancer or diabetes is to take it as a wake-up call that you need to take better care of your health.
Thank You
So sorry to hear that we have lost her. At least her video is still available to spread the message. May she rest in peace, and may her family find comfort in their memories of this fine and dedicated person.
Wow- congratulations, are you doing well and still living in that beautiful mountain?
But it didnt help her or make her live longer?? Thats contradictory
I wonder if she took the you know what.
I know she was battling it for several years, but could it have escalated it? I've heard many such reports.
Dr Sarah was one of those who gave me hope when i got my diagnosis of type2 diabetes. I was diagnosed with an a1c of 10.5. Amidst all doom and gloom, watching this very video of her not just gave me hope to live and survive but also a plan of action to get to a better happier healthier place. This is something my own physician could not do :).
Today 5 years down the line, a low carb lifestyle that maam prescribed enables me to live a "normal" , medication free , insulin free life. I have had my a1c in the normal range six months after my diagnosis till now.
Maam i want yo say this to you and i hope u can hear me - i never had the chance to meet you. I have a lot of respect and gratitude for you and your contribution to the medical field. I feel deep love for you. I came to know about your sad demise and your long struggle with cancer recently. I am sorry to hear that. I feel a deep sense of loss with your passing. You will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for all that you did for me and your patients.
My deepest heartfelt condolence to Dr Sarahs family. I hope the lord gives you the courage and strength to cope. My thoughts and prayers will be with you.
May your soul rest in peace Dr Sarah. 🙏🙏🙏
LONG LIVE THE DEAD! Not all hero's wear capes!!!!
Great, how long it took to you to come down from 10.3 to normal level ,mine 2 month ago was 8 now it is 7,so just want to know from your experience
@Dummy Ampm3 I was put on medications immediately. Within 6 months with medications and low carb lifestyle my a1c came within the normal range. Another six months down the line my doctors were able to get me off all meds since low carb lifestyle on its own kept my a1c in the range of lowers 5s. In that year and half i also went back to an active lifestyle , lost most of excess pounds. Sure that helped.
That being said we all have our own journeys. Seems like you are making good progress too. Good luck and stay blessed.
@@sandykhp that is awesome! But please get a Kraft insulin response test, A1C & other FASTING glucose/insulin tests are pointless to assess insulin resistance. Dr Jamnadas explains it so well
@@neoflyboy Dr Hallberg is talking about a low carb diet. Low carb is not low calorie. In fact, in the study you cited 30% participants did not achieve remission even after experiencing weight loss. Watch this video again to understand why it is low carbs, not calories, that's key in reversing T2D.
Carbs are cheap. Poverty contributes to diabetes as well.
Carbs are subsidized: sugar and corn, at least
Exactly I have been diabetic for 20 years and it comes to the point of not having the money to purchase the food that would benefit me or reverse the diabetes . Olive oil is expensive, So is the coconut flour and all of the awesome fresh vegetables even the coconut milk I buy it’s more than the regular milk and the list goes on .
Depends on where you shop. I've gotten a whole cart of vegetables and fruits for around $30 before.
That's a fact
Exactly. I can't afford coconut and almond flour. Most food in my country are organic, but starchy.. again carbs. I also can't afford things like xylitol and erythritol and my country produces sugar. A head of lettuce in the grocery store that only lasts two meals is $4 US, 1kg of rice is less than $2 US and lasts five meals. When you consider that I don't make much money and I have other things to do with my income, it's easier to just buy the food that makes that possible, as I reason that all I need is fuel to keep me going to achieve my goals. Then, I overeat for obvious reasons and the vicious cycle continues.
Well done Dr Sarah. Thank you for your tireless work. You have changed my life. She has a great obituary. In it she is quoted to have said, " I went to medical school - because I was pissed." What passion!
Excellent presentation by the doctor.

Did the Doctor actually suggest keto?
..I don't recall her pushing for the idea
...in fact the opposite.
@@r0ky_M I watched the same video as you and what she recommended is basically a Keto diet.
@@r0ky_M low carb diet or ketogenic diet, who cares if one "cure" their diabetes, cancers and cardiovascular diseases are two leading causes of death and she died to a lung cancer. Again not so surprising lmao. The evidence is overwhelming favors whole food plant based diet and this woman went against the tide then died 💀
How arrogant was she
Once in awhile, you'll come across a doctor who gets it. I was recently told that I'm in the diabetic range with my A1C and this video is helping me understand why following the doctor's advice is not working. So sad to find out after Google-ing her that she passed away. Prayers to her family.
A1C and other FASTING glucose/insulin tests are highly inaccurate, no idea why doctors even bother with them. If you want to know how your levels really are, get a Kraft insulin test where they measure insulin after drinking sugar water. (Not just a GTT either, that doesn't test insulin!)
And, many "get it." They just are "get" incentivized to keep silent aka not use your conSCIENCE. Indeed, prayers for her family (and her beautiful soul). Sincerely, fellow "sweet" one....and healthcare professional who doesn't shut up and will refuse to say silent on all truths, facts and real news.
From what I learned in watching this video n research, everyone that has insulin resistance is not diabetic n all diabetics don’t have insulin resistance???? So, does the keto diet work better for those with DM or those with IR???? Or both????
Dear! I've just learned that she passed away from lung cancer! I was just happy to see that there is still doctors like her that scream out the truths without fear and It was very exciting. Until... I knew that she's just passed away, it just hurts. RIP Dr. Sarah.
Big pharma probably had something to do with that smh. Can’t put anything past them.
Very informative. Sad to hear she passed away. I just got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, and the first thing my doctor said is that were not putting you on medication right away, because we want to try to reverse it with diet and exercise. This is why I love my doctor. Too many people and industries are okay with letting other people suffer as long as it makes them money.
yes and you shouldnt listen to this video if you wanna reverse type 2 diabetes u should listen to dr barnard
That's an incredible doctor! They usually want you on statins.....YOU CAN DO IT! It can be difficult LONG TERM, but not everyone is a sugar addict like me. The food industry is geared to make you fail, but educate yourself and stay with it!
meds are easier than diet and exercise.
diet and exercise are the guidelines for helping diabetics reach remission (aka "reversal"). Unfortunately, keto is extremely devoid of nutrients including antioxidants. Antioxidants fight against oxidative damage. Shockingly, the speaker in this video died of non-smoker lung cancer. I wonder if a diet rich in antioxidants would have inhibited her lung cancer formation.
@@denissemitchell9891 It's hard to say if diet could have done anything for her. She tested positive for the gene that makes people very likely to get lung cancer no matter what. She talked about it in an interview with Dr. Atia.
Even in her passing she continues to touch and improve our lives. I have hope because of her. The world definitely needs more doctors like her. May God provide her family friends and coworkers the strength and peace her loss has brought. I’m hurting and I didn’t even know her. Her legacy will live on.

Hello there what did she passed away with
Oh noooo what happened??
I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes last October. I first viewed this video researching my diabetes at that time. It just made sense to me. I started looking into low carb diets and after 7 months of a high fat, low carb (HFLC) diet my endocrinologist has told me I no longer need my medications and she is amazed at how well I controlled my blood sugar levels. The side benefit is a loss of nearly 40 pounds. My high blood pressure has also been reduced dramatically.
A HFLC diet has worked for me. I'm off medications, I feel great and I'm still shedding pounds. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Sarah.
John S And what happens to your blood glucose level after you exercise? Does it remain high for an extended period of time? (longer than that of somebody without diabetes type-2)
John S the same thing happened to me. Diagnosed March 2014. No meds by Sept 2014. Couldn't deal with the D. I don't need carbs
Hello john can you specify which food is that HFLC all bout please?
What do your triglycerides count look like?
Great
I’m saddened to know she passed away. Amazing doctor! I wish all doctors were like her. Unfortunately most doctors treat only the symptoms with medication when they need to be treating the cause which is what you eat. Dr Sarah is spot on in what she taught her patients.
One of the best lecture on busting the myths of Type-2 diabetes. my words probably won't suffice to appreciate the greatness of Dr. Sarah Hallberg.....
She is giving life to hopeless people... Lot of respect and regard from India.
Well said
This is undoubtedly one of the BEST lectures on the topic! It is (1) objective, (2) rooted in experience and scientific research, and (3) imbued with genuine care for sick fellow-humans. Such brilliancy, compassion and action help make the world a much better place for all!
Notice she doesn't tell us what percent of people are able to stick to this dietary advice long-term. Nor does she tell us what happens to their health after this advice.
Restrictive eating is a set-up for a binge, and for a restrict-binge eating disorder.
I encourage you to sign up for eating disorder dietitian Christy Harrison's free weekly newsletter on eating disorder recovery. She cites the research on the harmfulness of restrictive eating.

I was diagnosed with T2D 20 months ago. With an A1C of 6.7, I started researching low carb healthy eating and decided this was for me. Within six months I had dropped my A1C down to 5.6 and now 20 months later my A1C is below 5.0 with an eAG of 83 and daily FBS’s in the low to mid 80’s. In addition, I’ve lost 130 pounds and I’m down in my weight to where I was 50 years ago when we got married. I live by the mantra that my T2D is in remission instead of being reversed because I know that if I don’t eat and live this healthy lifestyle I can easily be back where I started 20 months ago and I NEVER intend on going there again - EVER!
Can we eat rice after reversal diabetic

I was diagnosed being Hypoglycemic=chronic low blood sugar, yes so I always had to eat=and the pounds kept on piling on-even though I never had a problem in my younger years. The advice from doctors was vague. I just have to figure out a better eating plan=which actually works for me. I would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance. May you be blessed.
I am just reading that Dr. Hallberg passed last year! Dr. Hallbert, I hope you can see this post in heaven! I am so grateful to you and this video. At 56, I was a few years into an on-call 24/7 stressful job that didn't allow me the time to do anything besides work, I was tired, had gained 20 lbs., had pre-diabetes and my overall cholesterol was 223. I was offered statins by my doctor but, told him, no thank you, "I broke it. I need to fix it". I found your video. I ramped up slowly, doing low GPS when I couldn't do no GPS but, always aiming for and returning to the "no". I lost 15 lbs the first year and then a year later 5 more. Not huge numbers but, exactly what I needed. I eat so much healthier now. I have the energy to exercise again, no longer have pre-diabetes and my overall cholesterol is just under 200. Sooo grateful. God bless you in heaven and your family here.
I was deeply saddened to hear of Dr. Hallberg's passing and want to extend my condolences to her love ones. For those unaware, she suddenly discovered she had stage 4 lung cancer. I have insulin resistance and have been trying to reverse this with low carbs. This sad news will redouble my efforts and if I am successful will be another instant of her unknowingly helping yet another person. Her efforts have been truly astounding and her passing a sad day for all
so sad to lose a such nice doctor. Wish her family is ok.
So sad!!!
I had no idea. Thank you for sharing. My prayers are with her family.
Her cancer has nothing to do with carbs. See her interview with Peter Atria.
This is not as hard to do as you fear. My doc told me to cut out white carbs, which I did, and I lost 25 kg in a few months. What a great motivation that was and is to stay off the carbs. I no long even want the damn things any more, because I know how well this worked for me. If I want to snack, olives, cheese and salami are so much more satisfying than chips, candy, pastries etc. Best yet, the snack urge goes way down when not eating carbs.
There are enough other good foods to get you through the rest of your life. You/we do not need any of the old favorites, because new (healthy) favorites arise. And, never be afraid to turn down a carb just to be polite. I just say "Thanks, but my doctor forbids this for me, and s/he has been right so far." People accept that you are making the effort and everyone who has seen the newer, slimmer you will support you.
So, just dare to commit yourself, which means don't cheat. Use the gains in your health to stay on the right path.
Best wishes.
Listened to her TED Talk the first time as I lay in my hospital bed after just being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes the last week of March. She gave me hope that I could be ok. Rest in peace and Godspeed! You've touched so many!

"Stop using medicine to treat food." Wow! What a line!
I was diagnosed two years ago. I cut my total calories to around 1900 daily, cut out all desserts and most bread rice and potatoes, added five hours more exercise a week and lost 25 pounds. I am in remission without drugs. The thing that helped me the most was buying a scale and getting on it every day.
I have been preaching keto since 2018, never knowing who Dr. Hallberg was. I find this video now only to be saddened that she's no longer here. What a great doctor. She is probably a big part of how I found out about keto, never knowing all the knowledge she was sharing.
Over 3 years ago, I watched this video while waiting to pick my granddaughter up from school. It began a journey that saved my life! I had recently been diagnosed with diabetes after years of coming close but not quite there. When I watched this talk and heard how much money is being made each year because of the "incurable & progressive" disease of diabetes. Knowing how money motivates people, I knew that would not be my path. Thanks to good people, I found KETO and have followed it for over 3 years. Down over 50 pounds and really enjoying eating again. The best part is that i am no longer diabetic!
Thanks, Dr. Sarah and others like you who are bucking the trends and getting the real message out. You are winning but it will take time for society to change because we are being told that apples & bananas are good for us. Technology makes it possible to get these messages out and I pray that more people will listen.
Any daily program to follow on dietary
I was diagnosed with diabetes 8 months ago at the age of 22, and it completely shocked me. I had no idea what to do until I came across this amazing video that changed my life. Since then, I've made incredible progress. I started at 181 lbs, and now I'm down to 146 lbs.
As a lifelong vegan, I realized that my Asian diet, which included a lot of rice, combined with my lack of exercise, contributed to my type 2 diabetes. But things have turned around for me. I now have oatmeal for breakfast and lunch, drink plenty of water every day, and strive to achieve 6000 steps daily. I also incorporate 30 minutes of exercise, burning around 100-200 calories per session.
After 8 months of determination and hard work, I am thrilled to say that my A1C has dropped to 5.2. I never thought I would be able to achieve such amazing results without even having to poke my finger for blood tests. I've been following a low-carb diet since my diagnosis, and it has made a world of difference.
I want to share my story to inspire others. Yes, type 2 diabetes can be reversed! I did it, and I believe you can do it too. Trust yourself and make the necessary changes. You have the power to take control of your health and live a vibrant life.
So can You eat sweats know and its no proplem.

It is fantastic. I have reversed my pre diabetes and have seen many success stories of people doing the same with Diabetes! Definitley talk to a doctor ❤ good luck!
"Stop using Medicine to treat Food." Wow.
Cheers for the video content! Excuse me for chiming in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried - Loowarn Inconceivable Desire (do a search on google)? It is a great one off guide for getting rid of diabetes type 2 minus the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my old buddy Taylor at very last got astronomical success with it.
@KnowingThereIsMore KnowledgeToWisdom The point went completely above your head. They were quoting the talk and you are arguing against something you think it means rather than what it actually means. The meaning is to not use medication to treat people when the problem is the diet, change the diet.
"The best are the first to leave" -- she's gone unfortunately - R.I.P. Thank You Dr. Hallberg for your legacy.

" Don't be fooled, there is a lot of money to be made from keeping you sick " that sums it all
My point exactly
In the last 40 years we have not CURED one single disease. Why? Because there's more money in 'managing' a disease than curing it. Cure it and the drug company gets a one-time payment, but develop drugs to manage the disease and the drug company has you by the balls for the rest of your life!

Thanks for posting this video. I 🙏🏼 that anyone who is insulin resistant sees it and there life is changed for the best.
Hi.. What was your diet plan can you share to me? Thankss
Traveling Pai
During the pandemic, I was consuming 500 grams of sugar per day give or take. Mostly sweet tea and cola. It got to the point where I could hardly function every day because of how sick I felt. I assumed I was having heart issues, possibly kidney issues, or liver damage. Maybe cancer. I wasn't sure what it was so I finally decided to begin a "self diagnosis experiment" where I quit consuming any sugars or carbs of any kind and begin intermittent fasting 16/8. The sugar and especially caffeine withdrawal was horrific. Blinding headaches and nausea. After about three days, mostly in bed, the headaches started to go away and the energy I began to feel came back like I hadn't felt in at least 5 years. Before, it was all I could do to stay awake after eating a meal. That went away almost immediately. I am now literally in a recovery process from how sick I was making myself due to my strong addiction to sugar and caffeine. I feel truly like a drug addict as I was ignoring my health just to get my all day fix of sugar and caffeine. Folks like Dr. Hallberg are modern day heroes for trying to get this info out to the public.
Hi Bob, you describe very much how I feel. Can I ask what you eat for breakfast as I struggle to think of things if I’m not having toast or cereal. I was thinking I might start having egg and bacon or avocado and smoked salmon? I’m glad you’re feeling better ☺️
Sugar, if I have to much, absolutely gets me sick. But I've never craved it. I'm no longer a fan of processed added sugar.
Sugar from fruits and vegetables? Count me in. Sugar from rice? Count me in. Sugar from soda? Count me out. I have soda maybe 4 times a year now. It's all matcha green tea and water nowadays.
@@tallisinwonderland4724, For almost a year I rotate my breakfasts between omelet or 2 fried eggs/cheese/stir fried or steamed veggies, 1/2 cup 4% cottage cheese/ 1/4 cup blueberries/1/4 walnuts, 2 hard boiled eggs/ 1/4 walnuts/fresh veggies, and drink either water or coffee with 1 Tablespoon of heavy cream. It works, I’m not hungry all the time, & I’ve lost a bunch of weight.
@@tallisinwonderland4724 How about . . . struggle no more and just skip breakfast ?
Sugar is toxic. In liquid form, it's insanely toxic.
I am not diabetic but I am insulin resistant. I have struggled for months following the advice of most medical professionals. I finally decided to try something more dramatic. I became a carnivore. I cut out all sugar and carbs. I would have less than 10g of carbs daily from cheese. I lost 35lbs.
I am now transitioning to a keto style of eating where I can have low carb veggies. I know it was drastic, but it was what I needed, and now, as I add foods back into my diet, I can see if I have any sensitivities I may not have known about. I didn't know it, but asparagus makes me feel extremely bloated, and I don't tolerate it. It has been the best thing I ever did for myself. Quiting sugar and refined carbs has given me the freedom to feel good again. To anyone who thinks that they can't give up sugar... it is easier than you think. Eventually, after a few weeks, you won't crave sugar anymore.
Giving up sugar was easy for me but I can’t get onboard with eating meat. I just don’t get how eating dead animals helps humans???? I’ve never been big in eating meat. Seems meat would clog your arteries??? There’s soooo much confusion about what is best to eat for optimal health, I just don’t know what to believe!!!!

@kolasera bumadesa pñ
I was pre-diabetic and hypertensive. At 5'6" 195 pounds. With a low carb modification I am no longer either of these and lost 35 pounds and feel great. The weight melted off and my blood pressure dropped like a rock to normal levels. My doctor had told me I was going to be on medication if I did not make a change and the side effects would have been miserable so I was highly motivated. This is now a life style for me. I will never go back to high carb foods as they are absolutely addictive. With any carbs over 20 it immediately triggers cravings. Break the chain and you set yourself free...
What do you eat for breakfast
Very good information. But, Im sorry to disagree (about what doctors say), but doctors as well as nutritionists and dieticians DO NOT recommend that their insulin resistant patients eat lots of carbs. Quite the opposite. All I've ever heard is to stay away from high carbs diets, to lower one's carb intake and to focus on greens and vegetables that are not legumes.
Thank you. Excellent presentation.
i have some issues with bloodsugar but i avoid the doctor, instead i went into really low carb.

I was diagnosed with a full-blown diabetes with an A1C level of 9.9 six months ago. The doctor put me through metformin for six months. I religiously followed her guidelines, lost 22 pounds and slashed A1C to 5.0. Not on the medication anymore. I am determined to maintain it not just for months but for years.
Please, please, search for Dr John McDougall and "the starch solution". He is very good at explaining the facts. He has been practicing for a long time, with a lot of long-term success.

What u did please tell me
@@kkscbuchalkalan9786 I switched to more traditional food such as whole buckwheat bread, vegetables, barley grits, foxtail millet etc. I totally cut sugar, white rice, white bread etc. I made a habit to walk at least 14000 steps/day and eat my evening meal before 7:00. No snacking. Lost 22 pounds 5 months. Weight loss is vital for diabetics (if you are over-weight). I would keep track of my blood sugar level checking at least once a week for first 1 month (in lab though I have a glucometer). I look a bit slim and skinny now but it paid me well. I feel better than before.
@@imrevadasz1086 I was on the McDougall diet for quite a while. I became very thin,very fast. And , yes, the diet kept my blood sugar low- it was 49! I was exhausted, a nervous wreck,had high triglycerides (302), low HDL (24), and was a weak,fatigued, out-of-it mess.

@@jules8029 Dr Ken Berry and Dr Jason Fung are also very good on this subject, Thomas goes into great detail but he’s not medically trained, he just passes on what he’s learned
Sarah have you seen a change?
That's a bit of a leap she's making, to assume anyone is trying to keep people sick.
Maybe, just maybe, this way of eating isn't possible, let alone sustainable, for most people. Did you notice she didn't mention any studies saying what percent of people are able to eat this way, and sustain it, and their A1c results for 10 years?
@@ALinn-vr3nl just as a heads up Dr Ken Berry is in the comments section; go to his YT channel and check out the info he has, with citations in each video; medicine has largely changed from the old model of keeping people healthy to keeping people sick because of the profiteering by big pharma; most, including many doctors, cannot see this, it’s not that they’re uneducated or even are aware but want to kill people/keep them unwell, but they tend toward caution with many new approaches to any illness, so they’d sooner stick with the orthodoxy than be seen to make a mistake that could end their career!
But I and countless others are among those who have been told “diabetes is a chronic condition that you’ll just have to learn to live with, and which will eventually take your life; but here are some (multiple) meds that will at least stabilise the condition; at some point we’ll need to up the dosage of or even give you more pills, just to keep it stable……..oh and here’s some insulin to treat the worst effects of it because you’ve got it bad!”
I, like most people, took that very badly and went home depressed, facing a bleak future; but after a short while that depression gave way to anger that I either wouldn’t grow old in any health to be able to enjoy it or I simply wouldn’t grow old! So I went on the internet (I know, how crazy, as if you’re gonna find answers there, right!); I googled “Is type 2 diabetes incurable?”; what came up mostly said the affirmative, but then I saw a link to one Dr Eric Berg….I thought well in for a penny in for a pound, I’m dying anyway so what’s the harm?
Here I am five years later, I’ve reversed T2 diabetes, lost 5st, have bags more energy and look and feel like I did in my mid to late 20s! I’m 58.
Low carb is VERY achievable as a lifestyle, I know, I’m not rich, I’ve got five kids and two grandchildren and I’m happily married; my oldest kids and my wife have watched in amazement as I’ve turned my health around and taken up my eating habits, including fasting, with nothing but GOOD effects from it;
I’ll agree keto doesn’t suit everyone, but disagree that high or even medium carb is ok for anyone! Your body makes enough glucose without the need for ANY dietary glucose, from consumed proteins and fats, and in a healthy person there is only, and should only be, one teaspoon of sugar in their entire body at any given time, and then only through gluconeogenesis, not through consuming sweet stuff or carbs….
What a powerful talk, Madam. I understand that she is no more. RIP doctor. Your legacy lives on.
