Just from his website, “Dr. Barnard is a fellow of the American College of Cardiology, the 2016 recipient of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine’s Trailblazer Award, and has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes, funded by the National Institutes of Health.”
He’s reversed type 2 diabetes in hundreds of his patients by teaching them how to adopt a plant based lifestyle that is low in fat. He’s shown the correlation between diets high in animal protein /fat and type 2 diabetes.
What would you say to this?
Also, sorry if I sound silly, hehe. I’m vegan and have read books/watched videos by plant based doctors such as Dr. Neal Barnard and I find his research fascinating, though I do find it difficult to understand some of the more ... “advanced medical talk”. I just think that anyone studying diabetes should definitely check out his work as he’s been researching it for a few decades (since the 80s) and has first hand experience in helping people reverse their type 2 diabetes by changing their diet to a low fat plant based one.
