Mastering Diabetes Audio Experience

In this episode of the 'Mastering Diabetes Audio Experience,' Cyrus Khambatta dive deep into a new study comparing a low-fat plant-based whole food diet to a portion-controlled diet for individuals with Type 1 diabetes.   Joined by Dr. Hana Kahleova MD PhD, a board-certified endocrinologist and principal investigator of the study, they discuss the research process, findings, and the broader health implications.    The study reveals remarkable improvements in insulin sensitivity, reduction in insulin doses, and better cardiovascular markers for those following the low-fat plant-based diet. Through personal anecdotes and detailed analysis, this episode underscores the potential of plant-based nutrition in managing and improving diabetes health.   00:00 Introduction   02:47 The Study on Dietary Interventions   03:39 Comparing Low Carb and Plant-Based Diets   05:26 Study Design and Findings   13:14 Insulin Sensitivity and Cardiovascular Risk   25:20 Study Results: Body Weight and Insulin Dose   30:30 Weight
