Type 2 Diabetes Pt 1: Diet & Disease Management (Dr. Nicola Guess, U of Westminster) Get Real Health

Dr. Nicola Guess joins Dr. Chana Davis to discuss taking control of type 2 diabetes through nutrition. Dr. Nicola Guess is a world expert on how nutrition affects the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes. She runs a private clinical practice as a registered dietitian (RD) focused on type 2 diabetes. She is also an Associate Professor at the University of Westminster, a Research Fellow at King’s College London, and co- director of CityDietitians. In addition to her RD training and experience, Dr. Guess holds a PhD in Diabetes Prevention and a Master's of Public Health. Dr. Guess explains how different dietary strategies can help manage and reverse type 2 diabetes (or achieve "remission"). Dr. Guess discusses the role of body weight in type 2 diabetes, and why even modest weight loss can be clinically meaningful. Her science-based, personalized approach is a refreshing change from the usual "my diet is best" wars. This episode is the first of a two part conversation.
