The Dr. Hyman Show
Blood Sugar Chaos: How to Take Back Control & Reverse Diabetes | Virta Health

There's a lot of truck drivers, and these are mostly men. And so they're used to like burgers and meat and stuff. If we tell them, and obviously this is stereotypical, but if we tell them, okay, it's steamed spinach for the rest of your life, guess what? Again, we lose you immediately. So we have to do a lot of individualization.

And so that's on the nutrition side and Krisma can go into more details, but those are some of the cornerstones. And then on a care delivery, I'll just mention that as you said, Mark, even with the best protocol, best nutrition, best nutrition science, if it's here's what to do, see you in three months, guess what?

It's like telling to a driver on a car, okay, just hold on to your steering wheel and keep going. Guess what? First corner and you're gonna drive to the forest off the road. So it's the same thing with nutrition. So the care delivery model that we have, it's basically daily monitoring daily interaction.

So when you hit the first corner, which could be, I don't know, kid's birthday party, or maybe there's like a death in family, or you lose a job, something emotionally really hard to overcome, we're there to help you and guide you. And so that wasn't possible without telemedicine. And now obviously with telemedicine, it's, you know, chronic disease is 24-7, care better be and support

better be 24-7 too. So that's kind of a little bit of, on a high level, the nutrition piece and then combining with this 24-7, more or less 24-7 support that we can deliver that has allowed us to deliver those results. But maybe Griezmann, you can add a little bit nuance to the kind of nutrition piece and how that's different from...

I would also add that we haven't published this. Actually, we published some, but We actually have very interesting dose response data. So pharmaceutical companies usually do what they have to do, like a dose response study. So here's the molecule. You add more of that molecule and then see what happens in terms of safety and in terms of outcomes.

And obviously you can then tease out the correlation and causation, like, oh, more of this acetaminophen, the less you have pain and whatnot. We actually have very interesting dose response data to carbohydrate restriction and seeing what happens to weight, glycemic control and getting off the meds.
