Current medical wisdom advises that anyone suffering from diabetes or prediabetes should eat a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet--which improves short-term blood glucose control—but may increase the long-term risk for chronic diseases like cancer, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, chronic kidney disease, and fatty liver disease.
Explore a revolutionary solution from two health experts- to eat a low-fat plant-based whole-food diet, the most powerful way to reverse insulin resistance in all types of diabetes.
