Peter Attia: What if we're wrong about diabetes?

As a young ER doctor, Peter Attia felt contempt for a patient with diabetes. She was overweight, he thought, and thus responsible for the fact that she needed a foot amputation. But years later, Attia received an unpleasant medical surprise that led him to wonder: is our understanding of diabetes right? Could the precursors to diabetes cause obesity, and not the other way around? A look at how assumptions may be leading us to wage the wrong medical war.

What are you talking about? The world needs more humans..regadless of the career they chose....to be more humble, genuine, to resist judging others, to have empathy...to recognize that every human as an effect on every other human (the extent of that effect can be argued) and we all have an obligation to one another to do exactly as every mother has told their offspring....'treat others like you want to be treated.' When you say you wish there were more doctors like him, you're forgetting the effect that non-doctors can have on others. Humans are humans...you chose a different career than I did...so what. Doesnt' mean you won't make mistakes...you will...doesn't mean you cannot harm...you can. The doctor in this video is called an adult. 95% of everyone you meet that is over the age of 18 is nothing more than a child in an adult body. It takes 2 things to be an adult. Neither costs a single dollar, but they are HARD. 1. Recognize we all a have an effect on one another...positive or negative. Let that sink in...that means with every decision you make...you must consider how that decision will effect others...positive or negative. 2. If your decision effects others negatively, apologize for it, work to repaair the damage you caused and don't do it again.. Pass the informatoin on to your dependents. That means you have be able and willing to admit you made a mistake. That is why 95% are children in adult bodies.

This is the best Ted talk I have watched and I lost my mom 3 years ago when she was given the option of amputation and refused to let her legs go. I lost my sister to pancreatic cancer last year. I wish every doctor could watch this and have the same conviction to get to the truth and make a difference to millions of people who have been treated with care for the profit of big pharmaceutical companies and HMO’s that decide care without medical training. Thank you for this. FDA, CDC, and our government has failed in their duty to do what they exist to do.

I have multiple conditions where eating certain vegetables or foods exacerbates one or many of the conditions. Doctors generalize what you an eat and say you must follow those rules to get better. In fact the rules haven’t helped me at all. I’ve tried so hard to follow them mostly to no avail. I haven’t had the privilege of finding one single doctor who has taken the time to research and explain anything. I do it for myself and slowly have found ways to help myself and have stopped feeling so overwhelmed by this. I do what I can eating pretty healthy, even though the food may affect me adversely because of the different conditions ,( since childhood), but its been a tough road.

This is a high quality individual that really cares, I so appreciate his words and am looking forward to learning more about his practice. So many people in my family died from the complications of diabetes and my dad followed everything his doctors told him to the letter, he got his weight in control, at the end of his life, it was his kidneys that finally failed, he chose not to do dialysis after giving it a try and realizing his quality of life was going to be terrible. Dialysis one day, sleep the next day, etc. I miss him

He is still in practice and has a good Podcast, "The Drive". His frank and open discussion of a Doctor's biases and the general medical profession is incredible. My beloved wife died from diabetic complications following the AMA "Standard of Care" practices. We trusted the doctors and followed their advice. We were told that it is a progressive disease and there was nothing we can do but allow the doctors to "manage her care" for the rest of her life. Two years after my wife's death, I discovered that I was also on the diabetic path. I was morbidly obese yet was extremely motivated to lose weight. After losing 45 lbs, I stalled. I diligently searched and discovered that I was insulin resistant and on my way to becoming a Type 2 Diabetic. I was following the ADA guidelines of lose weight and moving more. I learned that my many years of high insulin levels lead to insulin resistance. In all of this time, no doctor ever ran a fasting blood insulin test or understood that High Triglycerides (above 100) and low HDL (below 40 for men and 50 for women) is yet another indication of insulin resistance. This can go UNDIAGNOSED for 10- 15 years before our blood glucose levels rise and become uncontrolled. I have managed to stop the progression of my diabetes by following a very low carbohydrate( under 2o total grams of carbs daily), medium protein, and higher healthy natural fats for over five years. I have shed 180 lbs and keep it off. I help everyone who is willing to hear that there is HOPE and a FUTURE when we are given accurate scientific and health information. You will find the TRUTH when you seek after it with your whole heart. Shalom(Peace)

You would probably be delighted to know that Peter actually found the patient, as far as I recall. I follow him rather closely, he's a wealth of knowledge and is wonderful in his "calm-ish", rigorous approach. I don't see him as a role model, but I see him as a wonderful proof of concept that yes, these values and this way of thinking can work really well in modern day setting, while internet often present another, rather grim picture. I don't want to live in that picture, so I aspire to guys like Dr. Attia.

Fluffycat6, get yourself a new doctor. I had one that was terrible. I had doctors want to shove me into a hospital and on dialysis. I am now working with a new endocrinologist and so far so good. The one major difference that I have noticed is, that this doctor listens to my concerns. I used to be able to control my glucose levels with diet. Now fasting my glucose levels can be in the 300's. I told him I was concerned that I might have insulin resistance and or my pancraus was not producing enough insulin. He agreed and we are tackling the problem and hopefully I can stay off insuling injections.

Of Diabetes. > Please consider reading this. My contact is a newly retired but very very distinguished neuroscientist who is appalled at the way things are going even here in Australia where the medical profession is infinitely more in touch with the logic of the medical sciences than in some other countries? > We all know that Banting and McLeod discovered insulin in 1921 and subsequently went on to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for isolating insulin which gets glucose out of the blood, but "blood" is the "weasel-word" here. Insulin doesn't get glucose out of the body; it just gets it out of the blood. And therein lies the problem. For decades we in the West have been told to minimise fats and proteins which are non-inflammatory, Whereas carbohydrates like potatoes and carrots and beets and bread and pastas are inflammatory; and should be consumed with an awareness that they are inflammatory, and are implicated in a wide range of modern diseases. The French paradox so-called is a function of food being pretty much a religion in France; with the consequence that the French listen to all the "advice" they are offered, and politely ignore it. They always have. They continue to eat their cheeses; creams etc' in moderation which are filling; and which of course; displace in great measure both carbohydrates; and the ups and downs of blood glucose levels; and even more importantly the tyranny of glycation. I don't know how long it takes for body cells to recover from glycation sufficiently severe to induce a diabetic or pre-diabetic state. but I have suggested four or five months and have not been contradicted. It would be an interesting study. Assuming the patient is on a very very low carbohydrate allowance of string beans broccoli sprouts, that sort of stuff plus of course fats and proteins. For those who are pre-diabetic or formally diabetic, the prospect of amputations and or blindness at some point in the future must be very frightening, that glycation and all the other inflammatory symptoms simply stop if there is minimal or no more glucose entering the body is a blinding flash of the obvious too often ignored.. Perhaps explore the glycemic diet if time and inclination allow? You're not the first; there is a very large tribe of people out there who are in a pre-diabetic or diabetic state.. I'm 75 and I have no sign of diabetes; but I have cause to be cautious, my father died at 67 diabetes complications, so it's in the family. Occasionally I martyr myself. I have what I call a martyrs lunch, which comprises; A glass of red wine with a decent cheese; (very little sugar in red wine) and if I'm having a career day I might add some sliced tomatoes; I've even used lettuce leaves instead of biscuits. There are workarounds., Of overweight and all those bellies out there, just remember that grizzly bears get their pre-hibernating fat from carbohydrates; not fat or protein, there isn't enough of it about. Have a beautiful life and very best wishes; - John - Scarborough Beach - Western Australia..(please re-post this if you think it worthwhile ?)

There isn't a naturopath around who hasn't been talking about insulin resistance (which most doctors won't even test for, they wait for it to become diabetes when they can prescribe meds) for 25 years or more, who hasn't been recommending proper diets, and suggesting that PEOPLE REALLY START TO CARE ABOUT WHERE THEIR FOOD COMES FROM, HOW IT IS GROWN, and so on.

A lot of the Keto/Paleo crowd support eating lots of low-starch vegetables as opposed to just eating lots of meat like Atkins did, and I fully support them in that part of their diet. It is probably also true that given the three sources of calories - fat, protein, and starch/sugar - if you drop one of those from your diet it's easy to lose weight. The unfortunate thing is that they drop starches when they should be de-emphasizing the other two.

Dr Attia, please consider that the body hoards fat when it has excess toxins to keep away from our organs. It tucks the toxins in the fat cells & is extremely reluctant t9 give them up, as then it has to figure out a way to deal with the toxins, including the pesticides used in corn & grain production & the GMO'S found in same. Reduce toxins such as mercury amalgams, junk in shampoos, cosmetics, cleaners, pesticides, etc. And eliminate GMOs.

Whatever we believe, SB G's comments were about weight. "My insulin resistance led to my weight gain...not the other way around." Unless you personally know SB G or she directly responds, we do not know whether she was slim or significantly overweight at the start. There are slim diabetics, you know... So until we know her weight, there really isn't anything to judge as far as her lifestyle because we don't know what her lifestyle is. Ex: My mom is diabetic and small. She has mainly cooked homemade meals for the majority of my life. She became diabetic around her 60's. She does not sit around all day stuffing her face with junk and she is definitely not lazy as she still does the gardening, all the cooking, most of the cleaning, sleeps upstairs, and runs her own business in her 70's. I'm not saying SB G is like my mother, only that we don't know enough to make any presumptions. I, on the other hand, do stuff myself full of junk and sit around most of the day at a desk. I snack to stay awake at a computer lol. I'm also now overweight due to this lifestyle. I'm nearly 40 and not yet diabetic...but several of my family members are and without eating as badly as I do so I am now actively changing my poor habits before I'm in a worse situation than my mom.

What changed my blood sugar levels was the removal of maltodextrin. I was drinking 6-8 bottles of flavored water a day. Eating healthy, watching the "white" stuff in processed foods. My sugar was constantly over 160 every day, some days it was over 200. I couldn't figure it out. Then I started looking at the "chemical" part of my diet. Ever since I stopped drinking the flavored packets in water, my sugar levels have been down to 119 on the high end. My resistance has improved, and I am losing some weight. So he may be onto something here. Great information in a very powerful presentation.

We begin our road to being wise when we recognize that we don't come close to knowing everything. As a young mother back in the sixties, Adelle Davis became my mentor. And because of her, I never did pay much attention to that "approved" food pyramid. The introduction of that horrible guide was the beginning, albeit slowly, of the obesity epidemic. Those who studied nutrition from the accepted experts ended up doing more harm than good. Ms. Davis went to actual scientific studies (that it seems most professionals either never heard of or ignored,) and wrote several books on eating for health including the dangers of eating refined sugars -- which includes refined carbs which turn to sugars. I bless that woman for opening my eyes. I am still learning; something we should never stop doing, and am thoroughly encouraged to see that there really are still open minded, ready to keep learning, doctors out there. Thank you.

Very eye opening. I lost my father to complications from diabetes at 15 and although he didn't really look after his health as much as he should have, a lot of the time, there are things going on in the background which aren't as simple as it seems on paper. Socioeconomic factors, familiarity, environmental stressors, mental illness, level of support, family/friends, life, all play a role in our behaviors which can lead to declined health. Some people struggle more than others and it's something I wish I had realised when I was younger before condemning my father as useless before he died. I know work as a health and exercise consultant/coach helping those with chronic health issues, and the biggest tool to people's success is compassion and empathy - being treated as a human seems to motivate them more than being judged or being told they're garbage.

Not just caused by many years of smoking. It was also due to childhood illness and other issues as well. She had quit 30 years ago. When she was able to speak and the doctor asked if she smoked and she told him yes but had quit 30 years ago he hit her on the leg with his arm. A type of punishment. It took everything in me not to jump across her bed and show him what I thought of his reaction to this poor frail woman. I, and so many others, are at the mercy of these doctors playing God.
