Watch videos by Dr. Berg & Dr. Sten Ekberg on YouTube.

They have many videos with studies that go over low-card diets and its effects on T1 & T2 diabetes, liver repair, brain function, autophagy (which even cleared up floaters in my eyes), high BP. Folks I knew were able to completely get off of insulin and diabetes-related meds by doing a Keto-40 diet. With T1, less carbs & sugars means less insulin is required.

I also had a fatty liver, which completely repaired itself after 1.5 years. I did intermittent fasting by sticking to a typical 18-6 fast, with occasional OMAD days. Once a month a 3-day fast to really kick in the autophagy.
