Can you reverse type 2 diabetes?

My opinion is, as always, it very much depends on the patient. What we do know is that health can be affected by diet and lifestyle and type 2 diabetes is definitely a big player in that hypothesis. 

I found this video and really wanted to share it. Personally, I would recommend keeping an eye on your blood glucose levels as it's easy to do, inexpensive and a key to better health if you are bordering on unhealthy blood glucose levels. 

Some patients will be in a pre-diabetic state long before they head into the diabetes threshold and this is the crucial time when you could potentially lower blood glucose levels. I will speak more in depth about this on an other blog post (make sure you subscribe for the updates) but watch the video and make up your own mind. 

We will, as always on this website, share some science data so you can clearly see the people who beleive they have reversed type 2 diabetes.  But you can always lower your blood glucose levels unless you have type 1 diabetes which is a totally different case. I'll also write in another post about the difference between type 1 and type 2.

Blood glucose monitoring kits are inexpensive and easy to use.

Public Health England re-issues advice on vitamin D as Government response to Covid 19

Today, Public Health England (PHE) has re-issued existing advice on the NHS UK website.

Within this advice, PHE has made it clear that this is not in relation to preventing Covid-19 but due to the role vitamin D has always played in the optimum health of bones and muscle. 

As we are staying at home following Government advice, many people will be indoors for the majority of the day. This is a time of year within the UK when we begin to get vitamin D from sunlight. 
The body creates vitamin D when the skin is exposed to sunlight during spring and summer.  

Public health advice suggests if you are not outdoors at this time, you should consider supplementing with 10micrograms of vitamin D. 

They were clear to state on the NHS website that the advice is not in relation to preventing Covid 19.

Vitamin D supplements can be bought at most pharmacies and supermarkets and the PHE is advising not to buy more than is needed. 

The advice statements can be found at:
https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/vitamins-and-minerals/vitamin-d/
https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/
https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/advice-for-people-at-high-risk/
 

The website is highlighted in yellow to point out that there is no evidence that the risk of coronavirus can be reduced with vitamin D. Even though there have been some reports about it. 
(see the video within this link https://lusherlifenutrition.blogspot.com/2020/04/dr-bergs-take-on-vitamin-d-and.html )

Listed on the NHS website are the risks for taking too much vitamin D and when to seek medical advice in relation to taking the supplement.

Dr Berg’s ‘take’ on vitamin D and the Coronavirus

For several years I have watched Dr Bergs’ YouTube videos and my opinion is he talks a lot of sense.

Currently, the pandemic climate is victim to many hypothesise being flaunted to the public and as a registered nutritionist, I feel ill equipped to try and share another. So I won’t.

However, one thing we do know is that a healthy immune system is paramount in all health related matters. And one thing we can all try to do during lockdown is to improve immunity. Something which can have a pretty fast effect on the immunology of the world is food, Including vitamin D (which in the UK we can now also get from the sun as its availability is April-October due to how close we are to the sun). 

Have a look at dr bergs videos, make up your own mind. Possibly try and improve health at this time when you can cook properly, sleep better, chose wiser foods. If not now, then when?
