10:00 pm
[000:00:00;00] the was told time after time after time that there is no such thing as a diabetic diet, just whatever the standard diet is. and you've been getting here and just keep giving are that the most important thing is learning how to control with insulin. so when we were in the hospital, you remember them saying, eat whatever you want and goes for it. and actually his 1st smell in the hospital was a breakfast burrito because i was like, that's a, that's no cards. so we don't have to, does he for that? but then he wanted to cookies and after everything i took the keys and we left the hospital with him being over 300 still my entire nursing career. this is how we've done. i knew that my patients at my job a whatever they want it, and we just gave them this one scale. i knew that their numbers were 2 or 300. i
10:01 pm
knew that that was the norm. that was the diabetic community for most medical doctors, including the nutrition education is at the very bottom of our list of things that we're talking about in medical school. most doctors and most medical school educators are new maniacs. but everything new, the burning technology, new research. if you start talking about a dietary intervention that's 250000 years old, everyone at the table size will glass summer because that's a new. you can't get a patent on it. the same manufacturers are not interested in that at all, or no $1000000000.00 drugs. they can be fashions. i'm talking about nutrition. so you can't make any money on a nutrition idea that hundreds of thousands of years old the governing bodies put these recommendations out and it forces positions to live within those guidelines
10:02 pm
for fear of reprisals. and if you don't follow the guidelines as a doctor, you can open yourself up to that occasion. so there's a, there's a dual problem where not only the doctors never learn how to control blood sugars, they don't learn about proper nutrition. but even if they do, they're essentially forced to follow these incorrect guidelines. obviously incorrect guidelines in the recent position statement regarding management of diabetes for type one children. the american diabetes association failed to have a section dedicated to either food or diet, which are the main contributors to high blood sugar levels, which are responsible for diabetes complications. the life cycle management section notes. there's no single ideal dietary distribution of calories on carbohydrates,
10:03 pm
fats, and protein. so for people with diabetes, i see it in these barrett groups. there's a lot of pair of groups out there that these people are, they're not even diabetic. and they're sitting there like given advice, right? and hey, you know what your kids numbers don't matter. doesn't matter. so good. so you can go in there. you can share your graph of your 400 everybody a patio in the back and say, hey, you know what? you know, thoughts and prayers go out to my new spring. when you're shorter, why kate's or your kidney fails? this thoughts and prayers don't mean anything about the don't you go online and facebook. so probably a lot of people on social media. you see them stuff like this. she won't have any energy unless you give them carbohydrates. your child will resent you for the rest of his life. what kind of mother are you to deprive your child of a childhood? he's not going to learn as well. he's not going to grow. you have to have sugar for your body to metabolize energy. and if they don't have the sugars,
10:04 pm
then they won't grow. that's what we're told over and over. i've been researching for over a year, a low carbohydrate die. it's grossing shows names that are printed out over 60 articles that talk about proteins. not carbohydrate drives, long bone growth and shelter, and people have suggested to patients and their family, but carbohydrates are required for growth. totally phones don't know where that least comes from. our body can produce all the glucose names from gluco neo just the this model exist where being a kid is, you know, of any cupcakes or pizza and all that crap. right? but as you know, a t one young kid, if you're not feeding them protein and vegetables and keep in the blood sugar,
10:05 pm
which it's never going to grow to his f. the nighttime is a particularly scary time for parents when they have a child with diabetes. because that child goes well, they can go that's what people are afraid of with young children. they fear that low blood sugar seizure coma. that's the scariest. it's a medium. it happens overnight. so i think people think if you give your child carbohydrates, you're going to somehow help with that. but the truth is, it's the large dose of insulin, you're given your child that puts them at the most risk. the only reason a child has a low blood sugar is because there's too much insulin in their body. these very companies who are supposed to be helping us and you know, advocating for us. and during this, right the they're, they're putting their name on stuff that basically cause complications
10:06 pm
the so families are given a cookbook. and it features, characters that children might see on morning cartoons. and each character is presenting a recipe to that child's or to that mom. and these recipes are full of carbohydrates, and one of them that i recall was the recipe featuring a magical character that mice, both of my sons love. and it was for pumpkin waffles. and i think just for the waffle, it was something around 44 carbohydrates. and that's without adding syrup. so if you give your child a waffle in some syrup for breakfast, that's like 80 some carbohydrates, a disaster. the drivers, teens of the pink panther sash that carb down and had a insulin works. we just kinda did what they told us, you know,
10:07 pm
base. i remember our cd said she can eat whatever she wants, as long as she covers and highs are not a big deal as long as you catch them. so you know, don't worry about spiking after meals. with her as long as you're not staying up there and you're catching them and bring them back down. and that was kind of what we were taught. there's another publication given to us by of the american diabetes association. and it has a page where it's trying to do a little mess busting. and one of them is, you know, it's a mess that people with type one diabetes can't eat sugar. now, why? when they're given such a platform and such an ability to reach people. why would you not say at that moment it's better for people with type one diabetes to completely avoid sugar? it's just a, a wasted opportunity by a big governing body that holds
10:08 pm
a lot of power with these new families. that's basically the education. now we got a crash course in carved county ratios, how the insulin was supposed to move the glucose into a cells. and it all had to do with is carbohydrate intake. we were told that you can eat, you know, cheeseburgers and fast food and that these things wouldn't change because he was type one diabetic. if i wanted to have a brownie, and i wanted to sit down and actually calculate how many real carbs are in there, and how if it's white, sugar, brown, sugar, or oats, or whole grain, whatever. you want to calculate all of that accurately based on grams and glycemic index, and how it's working in my body. and if i worked out and if i slept well, and if i'm in a good mood or a bad mood, and if i have insulin on board, go for it. most people don't have time. they just take a random ratio in front of the car ratio that they are in the chronologist set. 6 or 8 months ago hasn't been tweet hasn't been changed and they take
10:09 pm
a brownie and their blood sugar still goes high. carb counting as a method to manage diabetes, a slide for many reasons. but one of the most obvious that i hope anyone can grass is that the fda allows food manufacturers to be off in their carbohydrate counts on their labels by plus or minus 20 percent. so even if you are the most avid curb counter and you way food and you measure it, the fact that the label itself can be often account will set you up for, for failure. the heat is estimated to over 415000000 people are living with diabetes all over the world today. in the united states and estimated $35000000.00 diabetic patients
10:10 pm
spend over $330000000000.00 per year on care making diabetes. the most expensive chronic disease in the country. global insulin sales are currently near $20000000000.00 per year. and costs are rising, or if i die bid documents low carbohydrate diet, there would be multiple $1000000000.00, big family corporations that will go bankrupt. my operations we're seeing as dire financial straits if they are not able to ride the backs of that makes any more industry once us buying their products. pharmaceutical companies once us buying their products as well. so when we're paying for carbohydrate food and we're paying for big amounts of insulin, those companies are thriving. if every person with type one diabetes reduce their
10:11 pm
amount of insulin by 65 percent. so someone is going to feel the sting of that. the very 1st time i went to cbs and bought no blog for $400.00. your heart is trying to figure out how in the world are you going to sustain this lifestyle to keep your child alive. this is what's needed for life, and it's insanely expensive. the refrigerator and i pull out the file of nova locked tickets here. her morning dos and hadn't had coffee yet. and i was still sleepy. and i fumbled with the insolent and it shattered to the floor. and i cried, buckets of chairs $400.05 saving medicines on the ground. or we could continue doing this. how can any family afford to keep their kid alive?
10:12 pm
no parents ever have to think about that. this is a 24 hour a day roller coaster. this isn't the kind of ride you take a break from this day and night and we were desperate for something else in the hospitals. we started doing research and on the internet, doing a google search. we kept saying this name, dr. bernstein, bernstein, and dr. bernstein. dr. burn sir, dr. burns burns beams. i read birds scenes book and really got my blood sugars under, under control to non diabetic levels. the, i remember the dates that i searched the symptoms because it was a couple of months after the animal i'm was dropped late 1946 diagnosis diabetes. we had to use reusable syringes and needles, which we sterilized in boiling water. if it cooled off, we'd assemble it and the needles would get all,
10:13 pm
and we had to sharpen the needles. we had to pump the stone and you run the needle on the pump, the stone and get rid of the hooks. you didn't know what your blood sugar level was . most of the time it was either very low, very high, and my low blood sugar's, or a constant problem from the family. and it happened that i was working for a company that made clinical laboratory equipment. and i saw an ad for a sweet pound device that could be used in emergency rooms to distinguish unconscious, strong from unconscious diabetics by the blood sugar is it said, if i knew my blood sugars, i'm an engineer finding my blood sugars, i could do something about them so i ordered a meter and started measuring my blood sugar was
10:14 pm
the back in more influential than ever. that's wouldn't. many you've observed since tucker carlson was fired from his prominent perch at fox news are afraid and unrepentant. charles and relentlessly, punches up at the establishment and speaks of for the weeks in power with
10:15 pm
the in the early days had a very creative lunch. peanut butter, mayo, and tune on date not thread. i found that the highest blood sugars were after lunch . so i said, well as lunch is the biggest culprit, it must be because of the carbohydrate. so i'm going to eliminate the bread and eliminate the peanut tighter. and i'll just have the tune of fish and mail and the salad where i'm on the amount of it. so when i took for lunch dropped dramatically and the blood sugars after lunch became predict i decided at that point that i had to get this information out and the doctors would bend over
10:16 pm
backwards. so the 1st thing i did was approach my own doctor who is present to the american diabetes association. and to certain people come to me once a month for blood sugar. if they could measure it themselves, i'd have no patients, no one would come to see me. i wrote a, it was like a cookbook. step by step, what do you do to have normal blood sugars? and for your type one diabetic. i submitted it to many major medical journals. annual rejected the show. i decided i would go to medical school to get an m d f. and therefore be able to get published. i was diagnosed with age 12 and life expectancy for
10:17 pm
a type one diabetic was 30 years and i'm 86 right now. and i've made this this just by to read all the different seen situation just made sense to me. you know, he was, he was the 1st diabetic that we know of that checked his own blood sugar. now every diabetic checks their own blood sugar, the, he was able to realize my blood sugar is directly affected by the food i eat. this shouldn't be a big surprise, right? by reducing his carbon tag,
10:18 pm
he was able to significantly stabilize the swings in his blood sugar over time. and that, that made a lot of sense to us. and we said, well let's, let's give this a shot to the, i couldn't, can leave the production insolence instantaneously. you started to notice the blood sugars coming on down. and so you can, we cannot continue giving those large doses of insulin because your little card i say go, i talked to dr. barm's, they are, is the 45 dollars the age limit, the 6 months and it keeps my baby. she's not, she's not friday. she has
10:19 pm
a straight to the policy. what we found is that we found some living amazing recipes and the foods were eating. now, on this low carbs restriction, are some of the richest and most delicious place that we've ever, even before. the we make low carb ice cream, make low carb pizza. we make little car cupcakes. there's low carb desert. there's all these little companies that you can eat. you don't feel deprived. there's nothing that i can't eat. you just have to change the recipe. the lay of the chart in our kitchen that has all the dinners of the week, so whatever is on there, it's the dinner always consists of the protein salad, sometimes specials,
10:20 pm
the, [000:00:00;00] the whole family itself here. now that we've all changed our diet to adapt to wherever if it's easier for me, i cook one meals, it's simple cooking. it's extra easy to find a simple site taps and vegetables and throwing some meat on the grill and the salad and maybe a low carb treats. we have this moniker now that we're the low car of and mean i'm also low alcohol. i mean, i'm also low drugs. i mean there's, it's, it's kind of a mixed up name, i think, because we don't say, oh, i'm high car. i mean, nobody says that i use
10:21 pm
a way that i think our disease dictates which is carbohydrate intolerance. the why is this not something i knew before? i like i'm a dietician. i went to school for this and i've had diabetes for you know, 20 plus years. yeah. i've never heard of this in my life. i decided to give it a shot. my in so it needs to have my blood sugars. i like rarely over 120 and you're changing my died to the low carb diet, made my blood sugars so much easier to control. i wasn't needing to count as high, you know, as taking these lower doses of insulin is much, much lower doses of insulin. the i'm on your floor now. you know, eating this way. no clark and you know, very happy to say that kidney disease going the meds that they were given me for
10:22 pm
that no more not even needed for my end. no neuropathies hearts in great shape. so this is how it used to be. and now this is how it is being a type one diabetic doesn't really define who i am at all i've gotten so good at and managing myself over these last couple of years that it isn't really a problem at all for me at this point to mount a party all you to hammer without a bon known cares if i you know, i pizza without the, the cross underneath and it's, it's not a big deal. 10 years ago when i started eating low car, it was really tough to get low car portions at dinner or, you know, pulled the fries to be broccoli instead. now it's like very, very common restaurants. understand stores have low car products. it's much much easier the cake, but we make a little curve cake. so what did we make for your birthday?
10:23 pm
my mud pipe. a low carmine pile the for breakfast just about everyday we have bacon and eggs. we saw the chain and rich butter. this is not a brooklyn issue. this is a wesley family issue with ease me eating. she had to be an example for your time. the 2018 harvard university let a team of doctors and scientists to study the low carbohydrate diet and its effect on type one diabetic. the findings were unprecedented. the very low carbohydrate diet resulted in non diabetic blood sugar levels. fewer hypoglycemic events. that's the
10:24 pm
risk of hospitalization. in a marked improvement on mental health is of just anecdotal evidence. there is now a collection of scientific data that proves part of doctor bern schemes, diabetes solution, the fewer cards, fewer complication. we know what we're doing on a daily flush and arranges in the ninety's sometimes in the eighty's. the reward is that isn't on the kid. she doesn't feel as i've been is nearly as much as a window as as pants. and for as long as i can do it, i want to make sure that that happens we would not have complications
