Harriet Verkoelen Unravels the Insulin-Obesity-Diabetes Knot - #111
from Stay Off My Operating Table · host Dr. Philip Ovadia
How come weight gain remains a common struggle for individuals with type 2 diabetes, despite maintaining a restricted diet? Harriet Verkoelen sheds light on the misconceptions surrounding insulin and type 2 diabetes, underscoring the importance of insulin resistance testing, and discussing hyperinsulinemia which could be a far more severe risk factor than high glucose levels.The mainstream understanding and treatment of type 2 diabetes could be flawed, but there's not enough attention given to it in medical education. With the potential damage caused by high insulin levels, including coronary heart disease and other chronic diseases, why are we foregoing insulin testing? Harriet's insights on the early signs of insulin resistance, different treatments for type-2 diabetes patients, and the need to cut down on carbs just prove to us there's no question about her dedication to promoting a greater understanding of our body's metabolic health.Get to know our guestHarriet Verkoelen, with her background in nursing and nutrition, has specialized as a diabetes nurse. She advocates a low-carb lifestyle as a solution to reversing type-2 diabetes.“We need to work together and show doctors what the results are so we can work all together. And dietitians need to understand that they also have to change something in their advising. Because as I told you, the test always tells you that you need to eat less carbohydrates. ”Connect with herInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/harrietverkoelen/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/harrietverkoelen.dietist/Website: https://www.harrietverkoelen.nl / https://www.meetins.nlLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harriët-verkoelen-1023bb13/Amazon: Books by Harriet Verkoelen About the Kraft Test:· Interview of Dr Joseph Kraft· Catherine Crofts PhD on Hyperinsulinemia and Kraft:Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.
