6. Research the Keto diet.

It can completely reverse diabetes. It’s probably prevented me from developing it. It runs in my family and I was determined not to develop it. So far, so good but I’m pretty vigilant about sugar nd carbs of any kind. It’s easier than you might think. It’s even kind of fun. I’ve lost 30 lbs. and kept it off. I’m keto about 70%. I relax a bit around holidays and vacation, but always get back on board after about a week ago.
