Show Notes

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Robert Ratner, the former  chief scientific officer and chief medical officer of the American Diabetes Association and have a conversation with both Dr. Ratner and a patient with diabetes, Chris Stewart, who is engaged in a transformational journey to address his disease head on. We discuss the scientific rationale and the real world results of this program offered by Virta Health which has been shown to reverse the ravages of diabetes through a remarkable lifestyle strategy powered by continuous remote care, a new model of care delivery with unrivaled potential for chronic disease management. What if I told you that over the course of a year, 60% of participants got off all diabetes related medications while lowering their HgbA1c below the diagnostic threshold for diabetes and, as a secondary effect, lost weight without counting calories? Would you want to learn more? I certainly did. Here you'll get both sides of the story from a renowned diabetes researcher and a patient who uses the program. Are you ready to connect?
