Defeat Diabetes

Excellent information given to the understanding of T2 diabetes and how to manage it for better health outcomes and or put it into remission. All lessons are portrayed in a way to enforce the understanding of this condition for better health.
I have been using the low carb eating for a month now and starting to feel much better metabolically and results are now starting to show in weight loss. Hoping my HBaC1 has dropped in the next blood test.
My husband has even got on board with this eating plan. His inflammation in the joints has also decreased.
This lifestyle is a keeper to enjoy life to the fullest.
Thank you Deaf Diabetes

It's fantastic that you're embracing the low-carb lifestyle together — it truly is a game-changer for health and well-being. We're excited for you to see the impact on your HbA1c in your next blood test. Keep up the great work, and here's to enjoying life to the fullest! - DD Team

Yeah! Now medication free!

I was diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic 20 years ago. Three years ago I discovered and proved that low carb reduces blood glucose levels. After returning blood test in normal range for a year, I started begging my Dr to reduce, then drop medication. All went very well and blood sugar levels were great. Then winter got to me and over several months of rolled oats for breakfast and increasing indulgences in cakes, biscuits and chocolate, my blood glucose levels were creeping back into diabetic range. Three weeks after joining DD to get back on track with sensible eating, my fasting blood sugar is back under 6.5. The great information and recipes that come with the program have inspired me and keep me motivated to eat more healthily and keep Diabetes at bay.

This app is a winner

I was diagnosed about 14 years ago with type 2 diabetes. I had managed to to keep things relatively under control with intermittent fasting and exercise. This was hard work and I was loosing muscle mass in the process. Unsurprisingly I was hungry a lot of the time. About 2 years ago my HbA1c went up to 7.3 and I was prescribed Metformin.
Since starting the Defeat Diabetes program my weight is increasing - however my waist circumference is decreasing! (I was not overweight to begin with ) I am gaining muscle mass. I am no longer hungry, and have more energy. I have embraced the idea that saturated fats are not ‘bad’. The Defeat Diabetes approach from my experience is better at controlling BGL than intermittent fasting, and I am no longer hungry! Win win I say!
My fasting Blood Glucose levels are now hovering around 5-6 and I feel like a new man. I have had a chat with my GP and have got a HbA1c test in a couple of months. If things keep going as they have been, there is every chance my Diabetes will be in remission! If you are overweight, have pre-diabetes or diabetes I recommend you give this app a go.

Easy

Defeat Diabetes is a game changer. Recipes are delicious. Initially takes a bit of shopping to get the core ingredients in the pantry. For an individual need to decide which meals you want to eat instead of trying to make everything. Lots of educational tools. In two weeks I lost more weight than in any other attempts with different methods and I’m not hungry between meals. Definitely recommend

Not for me

Having given this program a trial, I’m not going to purchase it. I have no doubt the basic premise is correct; by switching to a low carbohydrate, high protein diet the factors leading to diabetes and obesity can be diminished and potentially type 2 diabetes can be placed in remission. It also has “lessons “ explaining the scientific research on which the program is based. However the app is poorly structured and bugs abound, like not updating progress. The recipe section, when I searched for vegetarian options gave me some definitely meat based meals, with “vegetarian” as one of the key words, so it’s sloppily edited. While the lessons were informative, I found it tedious wading through them trying to find guidance on what amount I should limit my carbohydrate intake to - something pretty fundamental I would have thought. It has no tracking capacity either to record what is eaten. I saw some rave reviews about the program, but it’s not for me.

Life changed!!

11 days into following this program and my fasting blood sugar has reduced from mid 10’s to mid 5’s.
I’ve learnt so much from the lessons and masterclasses, and have tried out some recipes, which have all been excellent.
I’ve reduced my blood sugar, lost weight and lost centimetres, all without feeling deprived in the slightest.
I cannot thank defeat diabetes enough for the enlightenment and life changing advice.

I was using Ozempic and got my BGL’s under control. Because lack of availability I started to put back on any weight that I had lost and my BGL’s started to go back to my previous levels. Then I found the Defeat Diabetes program and found out so much more about Diabetes than I have been told in the past, now my bloods are getting to normal levels. The program is amazing, the recipes are great and the Masterclasses are so informative. Thank you so much for such a supportive program!

Defeat diabetes review

I am a recently retired GP
I have managed many patients with diabetes but only recently heard about the Defeat Diabetes program
I wish I’d known about it when I was still working !
I joined myself a few weeks ago - I don’t have diabetes but I’m in the pre- diabetes range which a lot of my patients were
I am losing weight steadily for the first time in years and will continue towards an acceptable weight hopefully avoiding the progression into diabetes.
I’m sure this program will be excellent for diabetics - in fact I’ve encouraged a friend with this to join and he is going well already
But I also feel it will be very beneficial for people like myself who I spent a lot of my time in practice trying to help avoid progressing to diabetes
Thanks to the team !

Amazing program

I started the Defeat Diabetes program in the first week of October 2022 and have learnt so much about carbohydrates. I put everything I learnt into practice and on the 22nd of November 2022 I stopped using insulin. It’s now been 2 months since I’ve needed insulin. I’ve also lost 5kg which I’m very happy about as my weight gain is a direct result of medication I take for other medical issues.
I’d recommend Defeat Diabetes to anyone.

Newsflash - It works!

I joined Defeat Diabetes approximately 5 weeks ago, after my HBA1C came back at 6.5 %. So I am officially a T2 diabetic. I know all to well the complications of Type 2 diabetes(retired Nurse) and was determined to control my BGL with diet and avoid medication. I have dabbled with a keto diet previously and am a convert to the low carb way of managing T2 diabetes. So far I have lost 6.5kg and it’s been a very enjoyable experience. The videos, articles and recipes are great tools to set me up for success. I can’t wait to see what my HBA1C level is in 2 months. Defeat Diabetes is an affordable, evidence based, realistic and effective way for me to hopefully prevent those catastrophic complications from uncontrolled BGL’s. Congratulations to the DD team.
