Welcome to the Type A Diabetic Manifesto

Welcome to the Type A Diabetic Manifesto

Start here to read through each chapter of the manifesto in order >> 

What is a Type A Diabetic?

What's a Type A Diabetic?

Someone who takes control, is open to new ideas, does not blindly accept advice from experts, is curious, and is not willing to accept that their condition needs to harm their health >>

What is Diabetes?

What is Diabetes?

If the medical community can’t define it correctly, maybe we’re diagnosing it wrong, too >>

It's Time to Stop Calling it Diabetes

It's Time to Stop Calling it Diabetes

Diabetes is a century-old term that has outlasted its value. It’s time to redefine diabetes >> 

Stop It With The Diabetic Types

Stop It With The Diabetic Types

It’s time to end the silliness around diabetic types. It not only creates too much identity around a disease, but it also obscures far too much information. It’s time for a complete reboot of thought around what we call diabetes >>

Does News about COVID-19 and Diabetes Worry You?

Does News about COVID-19 and Diabetes Worry You?

If you’re managing glucose like a Type A Diabetic, it shouldn’t. Because diabetes isn’t the problem – glucose toxicity is >>

Got Pre-Diabetes? No You Don't.

Got Pre-Diabetes? No You Don't.

There is nothing “pre” about having elevated blood glucose >>

Your Doc is Probably Too Happy with Your A1c

Your Doc is Probably Too Happy with Your A1c

It’s understandable given the population management issues at hand, but the Type A Diabetic knows better than to accept A1c mediocrity and resulting complications >> 

Diabetics are on a Medical Assembly Line

Diabetics are on a Medical Assembly Line

To healthcare providers, diabetics are a never-ending freight train of glucose dyshomeostasis, which means we’re put on a medical assembly line, stamped (diagnosed), prescribed, and released >>  

The Cult of Diabetes

The Cult of Diabetes

“I am a diabetic” is an insidious statement, allowing an insulin disorder to metastasize to your mind >>

Got Type 2? Actually, You Merely Have an Allergy!

Got Type 2? Actually, You Merely Have an Allergy!

Type 2s rejoice: The Type A Diabetic views your condition as a food allergy. Type 1s win, too: Eating and acting like a Type 2 reduces your need for insulin >>

Diabetic Complications Don't Exist

Diabetic Complications Don't Exist

It’s time to acknowledge that “diabetic” complications are rooted in elevated glucose levels, not in the underlying insulin disorder condition >>

Guess What? You Might Not Need Meds (or Insulin)

Guess What? You Might Not Need Meds (or Insulin)

Thanks to the miracle of technology, we no longer have to guess about “what works” – we can know for sure. And I know for sure that treating carbs as an allergy and exercising strategically keeps me gluco-normal, and may forever >>

Use The Type A Diabetic Glucose Control Panel

Taking back control is the theme of this entire manifesto. This simple glucose control panel is designed to help you do just that. >>
