Who is Paul?

This week we travel to Lindsay, Canada to talk with Paul Jolicoeur. Paul followed the standard western diet for 2 years, unable to achieve more stable blood sugars. Intrigued by a T1D friend, who was already following the ketogenic diet, he started with keto. Within the next months he lost 56 lbs/25 kilos and dropped his HbA1c from 7 to < 5.8.

He says: “If you can keep blood glucose controlled, you can completely mitigate almost everything about diabetes, which is supposed to kill you”. He further believes that “T1D is an opportunity to take responsibility for your own health“.

In this episode Paul and I explore:
💙 the fear of ketons
💙 loosing 25 kilos
💙 how to start keto…
…see the 5 tips below!

5 Tips to start keto

1. Don’t be concerned about being in ketosis
2. Focus on whole foods
3. Focus on carbs not calories
4. Connect with other diabetics doing keto
5. Don’t expect your doctor to be your keto champion!

For Paul it’s a simple math equation:

The more carbs I eat,
the more insulin I inject
and the greater the chance
of me over correcting and going low
or not doing enough,
and going high.

The fear of ketons
is just some miseducation.
