Mastering Diabetes Using a Low-Fat, Plant-Based, Whole-Food Lifestyle
In this presentation, Cyrus Khambatta, PhD, and Kylie Buckner, RN, will demystify diabetes and explain the molecular mechanism of insulin resistance. They’ll demonstrate how the exact cause of insulin resistance is the same as the cause of hypertension and high cholesterol, and demonstrate how eating a low-fat, plant-based, whole-food diet is an incredibly powerful way to reverse insulin resistance permanently. They’ll also share some jaw-dropping stories from people living with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes who have reversed insulin resistance and are now considered non-diabetic.
