He isn’t willing to do it though. I am not a doctor, but diet plays a big part in all diseases. We never eat fast food anymore (not that we did before) and rarely eat out. Fast foods are high in bad fats, as are commercial eggs. Try to eat organic free range eggs and cut corn oils. Do NOT follow the food pyramid which advocates a great number of grain servings. In the U.S. GMO grains are the death of us. His A1C went from 6.8-7 to 4.5-5.0. Fasting blood sugar 90-135 when he was upper 200-350 before. Ideally your fasting blood sugar should be below 110, preferably 100. Usually when you have a fasting blood sugar of 151 or greater, you need insulin.
