R Vijayasarathi, was an insulin-dependent type 2 diabetic with around 19 years of diabetes history before he switched to Indian LCHF diet – keto diet to be precise, combined with intermittent fasting. We said, “was an insulin-dependent” because he no longer injects insulin to control blood sugar. Even his Micro Albumin Urea dropped.
Here’s his journey:
At start of LCHF on Feb 20, 2018
- Ht 6 ft
- Wt 90 kg
- Fasting 159 mg/dL
- PPBS 262-280 mg/dL
- HbA1C 9.4%
- MAU 100
Medication:
- Insulin 70 units / day (35 + 35)
- Metformin 1g twice a day
- Vildagliptin twice a day
- Cardace 10 once a day
96 DAYS LATER on 27-05-2018
- 70 units/day insulin eliminated
- Vildagliptin eliminated
- Cardace eliminated
- Weight = 78.5 kgs
- Fasting: 121 – 130 mg/dL
- PPBS 112 -127 mg/dL
- Random : 92 – 105 (evening)
- MAU = 8
- HbA1C = 6.8%
This is just one of the 100s of success stories on the forum. We shall randomly post a few from there in this section.
With 70 units/day insulin, gliptin and cardace eliminated, he still lands great numbers despite 19 years of diabetes history. This how a good diet can transform your life.
