Stand up to Big Pharma because it’s literally killing us Share savenz.com around and stop the HOLOCAUST!
If I were to tell my doctor that I eat a low carbohydrate, low calorie diet, and do Intermittent Fasting to keep my Type 2 Diabetes in check he would say that I wasn’t compliant with “The Plate” dietary recommendations from the American Diabetes Association that he had asked me to follow. I know that, because I told him several years ago and he got mad. But, it’s 4 years later and as far as I know I’m the only new patient he has who has a 5.0% A1C and has lost 150 pounds.
I honestly think it’s just a lack of not wanting to get sued for not prescribing a firstline treatment.
My own doctor won’t allow me to have a fasting insulin test because my A1C% is too good. But when I was diagnosed it was 8.9% and I wanted to track my progress - even that wasn’t permitted.
Doctors perhaps don’t just need to understand nutrition and diet, but also should take into consideration the lifestyle of the patient and even go so far as to consider their income when dictating diet options rather than only allowing the US Gov’ts The Plate (updated food triangle thing.)
And they really need to start standing up to Big Pharma because it’s literally killing us.
