The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee


Mar 16, 2021

It is time to rethink the effect fruit and fat have on diabetes. Cyrus Khambatta, PhD, is living with type 1 diabetes and practices what he preaches — eating a healthy diet filled with the proper carbs and an abundance of apples, oranges, bananas, mangos and other fruit all containing natural sugar!

 

He joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to explain why his fruit-heavy way of eating won’t raise blood sugar, but the standard diet that is loaded with saturated fat can wreak havoc on insulin resistance.

 

Cyrus also discusses:

 

- White potatoes vs. sweet potatoes and blood sugar

- How much faster blood sugar rises from drinking a smoothie than eating fruit

- How to buck genetics and reduce the risk of diabetes when it runs in the family

- How eating a plant-based diet can improve insulin resistance in people who have had diabetes for many years

 

Cyrus is co-founder of Mastering Diabetes.
