In the last century, people were told based on faulty science, “you are what you eat.”

In this century we now know “you are what you do with what you eat.”

Continuous glucose monitors (#CGM) confirm the science we were taught in medical school works as advertised. Combined with a #FoodNotPharma approach, we could end the (Type 2) diabetes epidemic in our lifetimes.

As predicted, thee was no increase in blood glucose from these meals.

Getting ready for Low Carb Denver, and reflecting on what I’ve learned in the last 2+ years – value of continuous learning as a family medicine specialist 🙂 .
