  CHRIS READE Reversing Type II Diabetes with Soluble Fiber

  Aug 21, 20261h 1mS1

  Most people with type 2 diabetes are told it's a forever sentence. Chris Reade was one of them. In 2017, his A1C hit 9.1 with zero warning. He refused medication, did the research, and built a food system around the science of soluble fiber. Six months later, his A1C was 5.5. Seven years later, it has never gone back up. In this episode, entrepreneur and author Chris Reade explains how he reversed a shocking diabetes diagnosis using soluble fiber instead of medication, and why simple, sustainable habits beat extreme diets every time.
