I noticed a sign on a blood pressure machine at a gym recently, and it burned me up (southern for pissed me off)! Why? Because it was filled with some partially correct information regarding Type 2 Diabetes and plenty of actual misinformation. Take a little guess on the source of said information… I reveal it towards the end of this shorter 20 minute solocast.
My metabolic mission here at The Nourishment Mindset is to help people (re)discover their vitality through real, whole foods, straight talk, sound healing practices AND the pleasures of the table. Having a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes or pre-diabetes (which in my personal opinion IS Type 2 Diabetes) means your vitality is severely compromised. Most patients who receive this diagnosis are told the party line: “you have a chronic, progressive condition.” In other words, they are NOT told that this is a REVERSIBLE condition. Furthermore, by the time this diagnosis is given, the patient has been sick for many years. AND all of it could’ve been previewed and prevented if the provider had run a simple metabolic marker test and given appropriate reversal advice; yet almost none do.
Tune in to see what the 52+% of American adults headed in this direction or already there need to know to heal! Also, I share my scathing thoughts on the US government’s dietary guidelines committee “work” — see my submission below. Nearly 80% of the comments they received before their last meeting were about low-carb lifestyles. Do you think they listened? Nope! This advocacy is critically important because it affects MANY meals — from what is served to your children at school and your loved ones in the hospital or senior care, to foods available to our military, food assistance recipients, the incarcerated and more.
