18 billion. That's the cost of our collective failure to tackle diabetes. Standard care does not work. Patients walk around with hba1c's of 7,8,9% and are told this is fine, enjoy yourself and simply take your meds. When they have complications we pretend it's unavoidable.

Really cool to see other dietitians also calling out the fact that the protein RDA is out of date, too low & this, no longer evidence based 🥳🙌👏

I have no business being on this roster next to these people but looks like it's happening 😅 My talks always get good reviews even if just because I'm the loudest, most blunt person in the room 😂 See you there 💪

About once a year I experiment with purposefully reintroducing carbs into my diet. Not much, around 100g per day (I'm normally under 30-50). Here's what I noticed from the past 8 weeks of doing this: ❎ More bloated. Nothing crazy, but waist circumference increased 1/2 inch

What happens when you focus on glucose, not just for weeks or months, but for 10 years? The longest-ever report on a ketogenic diet in a high-risk type 1 diabetes case was recently published. ➡️ youtube.com/watch?v=C9oW_J… The result? Stable blood sugar. Excellent vascular health

Are ketogenic diets "unsustainable" and dangerous "fads," or are they life-changing metabolic therapies? Who is the arbiter of what *someone ELSE* finds "sustainable?" Random strangers on the internet ... or YOU and YOUR body? youtu.be/mA47-cJtZ8I #keto #lchf #lowcarb

Carb heavy diet = easy over consumption and zero fat burning (RQ > 1) Carnivore diet = easy under consumption, 21% increase in fat burning (RQ < 1) and smaller midsection Cool experiment in this 65yr old lady!

If we used waist to height ratio instead we'd realise that far more people have metabolic health problems than we currently think. I have patients with a BMI of 24 but have a waist circumference nearing 40 inches. This is a low muscle high visceral fat situation that BMI
