Nope. More studies indicate ketogenic diet reduce microbial diversity albeit some mixed result.

I dont disagree with fasting and exercise. Its just they way people do KD without monitoring and understanding the effect of the diet to the body, mainly gut issue and hormonal affects.

Heck people dont even know what is keto flu and how did it happened ..thats outrageous. Keto diet without knowledge is as dangerous as following mainstream diet haha.

No im not referring to you. I think its okay to go with that diet as long as you know what you are doing. I use to demonise high fructose laden fruits but now im more leanient. I take various fruits but not much. Not as much like what KKM/FDA suggest.

Need to have variety of fruits and veges to grow your microbes. What you eat is what you get.

start jog 3 times a week.

do pilates

diet...eat less carbs.

read up lots of material out there.

do regular tests.

see a good physician.

Regular exercise, having meal by portion (which mean split the breakfast/ lunch into 2 time in small portion), control food intake. Regular check blood sugar (buy tester in pharmacy)

can try taking Magnesium Glycinate ( 410 ~420 mg for adult male) supplement daily for sleep & relaxation, it can help with blood sugar regulation too.

Exercise as in weight resistance training, build up muscle mass to help body absorb glucose more effectively which can improve blood sugar level after eating

strength training can help reverse insulin resistance.

Yeahhh I've been taking this for sleep actually
Stopped taking it then felt like shiat
So will start back

No rice = sugar
No bread = sugar

what supplements also useless if you ignored that entire bit about excercise

u can try up the dosage cause 400mg just a daily recommended dosage, if u got chronic stress, it will trigger blood sugar and blood sugar will lower ur Mg that manage ur sugar level.

higher blood sugar also cause ur potassium lower. and also cause potassium and sodium pump not working properly.

just watch ur diet, eat more green, vegetable, less carb, ultra process food, cut sugar... and watch out for maltodextrin, watch out on food Glycemic index (GI), maltodextrin far worst then sugar where u can easily find in ultra process food.

exercise strength training a must..

it take time to recover

Hello TS, may I know 11 is hbA1c or Blood Glucose? Dr prescribed oral is metformin only or combination?

11 is quite high but I doubt Dr will give single medication only, as usual start from control with medication + lifestyle modifications. If you're affordable can get Abbott arm patch glucose meter, now got buy 1 free 1. You can check your glucose from time to time, pre or post meal. Then you will know which type of food triggers your blood glucose.

So long you not yet insulin resistance, its still reversible. Ask your Dr what's the target goal for your blood glucose / hbA1c after 3 months.

prior to your checkup, did you pee a lot?

This is correct. Cut your fat intake. How low? Less than 3g per serving.

What the....

Omg please ignore the messages from this fellow guys. Why diabetes is an epidemic now is because of these kind of responses.

You can use Chat GPT to fact check.

How Whole Food Plant Based (WFPB) diet can reverse Type 2 diabetes.

This is criminal!

Are you on diabetic medication?

Wrong, proper diet and lifestyle intervention can eliminate Type 2.

Type 1 is the one that can't be eliminated.

Did you get your kidney checked? What medication are you on?

Try low fat instead of low carb. Your body will thank you.
