"Defeat Diabetes works. It just works".



Dr Iain McIntyre (2 minutes)

Published by: Defeat Diabetes (Australia) - 1 Aug 2021

Despite being a GP with 46 years of medical experience behind him, Iain didn't believe it was possible to put type 2 diabetes into remission.

He had been trying on his own for years. 'Traditional' treatment methods saw Iain go on an increasing amount of medication, with his HbA1c reaching a frightening 9.9.

After joining Defeat Diabetes in January 2020, Iain has lost 10kg and his HbA1c is sitting at 6.8.
