On the surface it can seem that many different diets can offer similar benefits for disease reversal, especially when scrolling through google, YouTube or any social media. The truth is that while many diets can appear to give similar results – like weight loss and reduction of HbA1c (measurement of average blood sugar), the mechanism of how the results come about and the impact on overall health between plant-based and meat-based diets could not be more different. I bring up the example of diabetes today because of a recent wellness appointment for a gentleman with kidney failure who needs my help to reverse his disease, whose wife insisted that she needed a different diet than him because her issues were “metabolic” rather than renal. I decided to flip on the camera and explain why this is an incorrect and dangerous diet to help others who believe the same thing. Not to stir up controversy, but to save lives. She has been faithfully using the Ketogenic or keto diet to successfully lose weight and lower her HbA1c, which she believes means she has reversed her diabetes. Unfortunately, as I explain in the video, she has hidden the evidence of her diabetes while increasing her insulin resistance and increasing her risks of heart disease, cancer, and other diseases like autoimmune diseases. Even doctors who rely on the HbA1c test who have not considered the physiology of HbA1c have made this mistake to the great detriment of their patients. Heart attacks are the most common cause of death, even in people with diabetes and autoimmune diseases, so this diet that focuses on meat and animal fat for the primary food source actually increases your risk of heart attack and death, even while you look slimmer and your labs appear more favorable. I have also had multiple people come to me who developed kidney failure while on the keto diet. Also important is the lack of vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants on the keto diet which make people more susceptible to cancer, autoimmune diseases, and prolonged infections as the COVID research I mentioned also indicates.
