As we observe National Diabetes Month this November, Dr. McDougall sheds light on crucial aspects of managing type 2 diabetes. The risks associated with medication, including the potential for a medication-induced "hyper-insulin-state" leading to weight gain, underscore the importance of exploring alternative approaches.

Dr. McDougall advocates for a transformative approach: the most effective way to treat and potentially reverse type 2 diabetes is through weight loss achieved by embracing a low-fat starch-based diet. This empowering strategy not only addresses the root cause but also promotes overall well-being.
