#408: Cyrus Khambatta PhD and Robby Barbaro MPH on Mastering Diabetes - The Revolutionary Method to Reverse Insulin Resistance Permanently in Type 1, Type 2 and Prediabetes!

Cyrus and Robby are the co-authors of the New York Times bestselling book Mastering Diabetes The Revolutionary Method to Reverse Insulin Resistance Permanently in Type 1, Type 1.5, Type 2, Prediabetes, and Gestational Diabetes.

They are also the team behind MasteringDiabetes.org, an online coaching platform for people living with all forms of diabetes that focuses on low-fat plant-based whole-food nutrition. 

Cyrus has a PhD in nutritional biochemistry from UC Berkeley and has been living with type 1 diabetes since 2002. 

Robby has a master's degree in public health and has been living with type 1 diabetes since 2000.

Current medical wisdom advises that anyone suffering from diabetes or prediabetes should eat a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet. But in this paradigm shifting book, they go through a century of research to reveal how that advice is misguided. 

If you fall anywhere on the diabetes spectrum, this is a must listen. 

Here are some of the things we talked about:

·      The different types of diabetes and prediabetes

·      How the conventional wisdom of a low carb, high fat diet is misguided 

·      Why food is medicine and what they recommend for reversing insulin resistance.

·      How their personal experience with diabetes inspired their lifestyle choices.

·      The green, yellow and red food choice list for reversing insulin resistance
