“Prevent and Reverse Diabetes!”

Guest: Robyn Kenul, R.D.

(See full description below.)

Show Description:

Join HealthyPlanet’s Bob DiBenedetto for an in-depth discussion on “Preventing and Reversing Diabetes,” with Registered Dietitian, Robyn Kenul. (See bio below.*)

Diabetes is the source of a great deal of pain and suffering in our country and in the world. It’s painful in a whole other way, as it costs our medical system hundreds of billions of dollars each year.

Diabetes and prediabetes is so prevalent that it’s almost a certainty that you, or someone you know, is living with one of these conditions.

In this show, you’ll hear about how to address this health scourge by learning the ins and outs of what causes this disease, and about just how simple it is to stop this devastating condition in its tracks.

– What happens in one’s body to create the condition we know as diabetes?
– What foods are the worst offenders in causing diabetes?
– Is eating sugar the cause of diabetes? (The answer to this question will surprise you.)
– What is the ideal diet to prevent and reverse diabetes?
– Does this diet work better than the diet put forth by the American Diabetes Association, or a Keto diet, to address the cause of diabetes?
– What’s wrong with the “eat in moderation” mantra?

This will be an invaluable discussion for you, and the ones you love. Tune in!

Join us monthly at 6PM on the second Friday of each month, on WUSB, 90.1FM, or Live Stream at: http://wusb.fm/

Free of charge, and rich with information and inspiration!
