The Diabetes Plan Explained: Can Type 2 Diabetes Go Into Remission? 2025

Описание: What if type 2 diabetes wasn’t a life sentence — but a condition that could be improved, and in many cases put into remission?

In this episode of selfhelp4wellness, we take a deep, evidence-based dive into The Diabetes Plan by Dr. Peter Brukner, a leading sports medicine physician who challenges decades of conventional dietary advice around diabetes, weight gain, and metabolic health.

This book reframes type 2 diabetes as a disease of carbohydrate intolerance, not a progressive condition that inevitably requires more medication over time. Instead, it explores how reducing sugar and refined carbohydrates, focusing on real food, and stabilizing blood glucose can dramatically improve metabolic health, energy, weight, inflammation, and long-term outcomes.

In this episode, we explore:

What type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes actually are

The role of insulin resistance in blood sugar, weight gain, and chronic disease

Why high-carb, low-fat diets may worsen diabetes for many people

How low-carbohydrate, nutrient-dense eating supports blood sugar stability

The concept of diabetes remission — and who it may help

How glucose spikes affect energy, brain fog, mood, and inflammation

The difference between calorie restriction vs. carbohydrate restriction

Why sustainable lifestyle change works better than short-term diets

The connection between diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and mental health

This discussion is educational, empowering, and non-judgmental. It’s designed for people living with type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes, those at risk, caregivers, and anyone interested in metabolic health, prevention, and lifestyle medicine.
