DESCRIPTION: When placed head-to-head against the American Diabetes Association diet, how do plant-based diets fare in terms of not only blood sugar, body weight, and cholesterol control, but also mood and quality of life?
The three diabetes videos I mentioned are
• Why is Meat a Risk Factor for Diabetes? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/why-i...)
• How May Plants Protect Against Diabetes? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-m...)
• Plant-Based Diets and Diabetes (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/plant...)
For those who seek a deep understanding of what diabetes really is and what causes it, check out this series of videos
• What Causes Insulin Resistance? (http://nutritionfacts.org/what-causes...)
• The Spillover Effect Links Obesity to Diabetes (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-s...)
• Lipotoxicity: How Saturated Fat Raises Blood Sugar (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/lipot...)
• Diabetes as a Disease of Fat Toxicity (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/Diabe...)
• What Causes Diabetes? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/what-...)
Thankfully, not only can diabetes be reversed but so can some of its complications. See Can Diabetic Retinopathy Be Reversed? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/can-d...) and for diabetic neuropathy, my live annual review From Table to Able: Combating Disabling Diseases with Food (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/from-....
Of course, preventing it is better:

• Preventing Prediabetes By Eating More (http://www.nutritionfacts.org/video/p...)
• Lifestyle Medicine Is the Standard of Care for Prediabetes (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/lifes...)

There are some foods that may increase the risk:
• Eggs and Diabetes (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/eggs-...)
• Fish and Diabetes (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/fish-...)
• Diabetes and Dioxins (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/diabe...)
And others that may help:
