    132: Charles: From Type 2 Diabetes Diagnosis to Remission

    When Charles was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, he was shocked and overwhelmed by the numbers. Having watched his father experience serious diabetes complications, including losing a leg, Charles knew he wanted to take a different path. But where should he start? In this episode of Type 2 Diabetes Talk, Dr. Jedha talks with Charles about how he went from an A1c of 6.5% to 5.6%, lost 35 pounds (16 kg), and improved his cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Charles shares how joining DMP helped him understand his numbers, learn about carbohydrates and nutrition, and make practical changes to his diet and lifestyle that he could maintain. You'll also hear Charles's advice as a longtime college tennis coach on setting achievable goals, why consistency matters more than perfection — a message that Dr Jedha emphasizes, and the value of ongoing education and support.  Dr. Jedha closes with three important lessons from his journey that anyone living with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes can put into practice. Charles's story is a powerful reminder that a type 2 diabetes diagnosis can be the beginning of a new chapter, if you choose to take that opportunity. Meaningful change is possible, one achievable step at a time.

    131: Micronutrients and Diabetes

    Micronutrients may be needed in tiny amounts, but they play an enormous role in how your body functions, including how it processes glucose and responds to insulin. And research suggests that deficiencies in several important vitamins and minerals are common in people with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes. In this episode, Dr Jedha explores why these deficiencies occur and takes a closer look at vitamin D, magnesium, vitamin B12, vitamin C, and other important nutrients. Micronutrients are important for diabetes! You'll also learn why food quality matters, when supplements may be useful, and why good diabetes nutrition isn't only about reducing carbohydrates. It's also about giving your body the nutrients it needs to function at its best. When you do that, blood sugar and metabolism have the neccesary fuel to heal, rebalance and renew.  For show notes and resources, please visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com To share your questions and suggestions, leave us a voice message or email at: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/message Explore our proven programs and services, visit: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/programs Subscribe to our free weekly newsletter for podcast updates, valuable nutrition tips and more: https://Type2DiabetesTalk.com/subscribe

    129: What Is A Normal Blood Glucose Level? Part 2

    What should your blood glucose goals be if you have prediabetes? Does getting older change what's considered a "normal" glucose level? And why do some people feel shaky when their blood sugar finally returns to healthy levels? In Part 2 of this special series, Dr Jedha answers the questions that sparked the biggest discussion after Part 1 (episode 127). You'll discover why returning to normal blood sugar is the goal for prediabetes, what the latest research says about reducing your long-term risk of type 2 diabetes and complications, and hear evidence-based answers to real listener and TikTok questions regarding what normal glucose level actually means in real life.  If you're looking for clear, practical guidance backed by science, not opinions, this episode will help you understand exactly what the numbers mean and how to use them to protect your long-term health.

    127: What Is A Normal Blood Sugar Level?

    What is a normal blood sugar? It sounds like a simple question, but after one of my TikTok videos sparked hundreds of comments and heated debates, it became clear that many people are confused about what "normal" actually means. Is 180 mg/dL (10 mmol/L) after a meal really normal? Are doctors lowering the bar? And what do the diabetes guidelines actually say? In Part 1 of this two-part series, Dr Jedha breaks down the science behind normal fasting blood sugar, post-meal blood sugar and HbA1c in a practical, easy-to-understand way. You'll learn the difference between normal blood sugar and treatment targets, why that distinction matters, and what the latest evidence says about lowering your risk of diabetes complications. If you've ever wondered what numbers you should really be aiming for, this episode is for you.
