Unveiling the Truth: Why You Can't Trust Your Doctor About Medication

Don't be put off by the headline across the screen. This is a fabulous interview. Two of the pioneers of low carbohydrate diets, in the USA and the UK, discuss their similar experience.

Dr. David Unwin, a UK GP, explores the benefits of a low-carb diet through patient success stories. His collaboration with diabetes.co.uk has helped many achieve drug-free diabetes remission. He emphasizes the importance of understanding sugar intake and its impact on health, advocating for lifestyle changes to achieve better health outcomes. Dr. Unwin also conducts research on the effects of a low-carb diet on various health conditions and promotes sustainable farming practices.

Dr. Westman is an obesity medicine specialist and trusted expert in the therapeutic power of carbohydrate restriction, and clinical research, and has treated patients using low-carb keto diets for over twenty-five years.

The low carb cure, with Dr. David Unwin

Sebastian Rushworth with David Unwin (49 minutes)

Published by: Sebastian Rushworth MD - 9 Jan 2022

David Unwin is a primary care physician in the UK. For the last eight years he's been running a long term cohort study in his clinic, in which he treats his diabetic patients with a low carb diet. The study has generated massive amounts of useful data on what happens when patients with type 2 diabetes switch to a low carb diet. And the results have been pretty astounding, with patients going in to complete remission from their diabetes (something which was previously thought to be virtually impossible), lowering their blood pressure, improving their cholesterol levels, losing weight, improving their liver and kidney function, and being able to go off drugs that they would otherwise likely have had to stay on for the rest of their lives.

In this podcast, I talk to David about how the study came about and what the low carb intervention that he gives his patients consists of more specifically. We then discuss some of the common criticisms of the low carb diet and why they really aren't supported by the scientific evidence, and end with a discussion of what doctors and other clinicians who are interested in implementing a low carb diet with their patients can do to make it happen. I enjoyed this conversation a lot and I hope you will too.
