Thank you for the insight! Yeah I really do not want to go on them but since the numbers have been trending up the last few years now and the family history both the doc and I want to avoid diabetes if I can!

I will dive deeper into foods to eat for sure I try to avoid junk food and eating out for the most part since that is an easy thing to address. Lol the meth comment brought me a good laugh cause you are right! Hopefully, I can change my diet though, and avoid this whole issue!

Some are as simple as:

Broccoli. Seafood. Pumpkin. Nuts. Okra. Flaxseed. Beans. Fermented foods.

You just have to try to fit some in your diet..

The meth, despite being kind of a joke, i believe would be less harmful in rigth amounts rather than what semaglutide is doing to intestines.. Big pharma is now finding amazing secondary effects of this new wonder drug, but most is pushing the profit agenda..

If you have no other chance, then sumaglutide it is.. But try your best before go into this life long life crippling drugs.

I heard a joke a couple days ago that would fit this example.. It was someone saying doing this is like taking Chemo just to avoid going to the barber.. It would fit in the semanglutide narrative. better to start with real foods before

OMG THAT IS GREAT!!!!! I will for sure look into those and figuring out how to add them in and see how it goes. I think one of the biggest things at least for me is the mental aspect of it but I feel like I should be good and able to pull it off!

100% agree with @fm

Eat good food, cut back on animal products if cholesterol is an issue, get in some aerobic activity. Doesn't have to be a massive change to make a huge difference.

Oh.. Cholesterol is another rabbit whole.. Same as Salt.. Big Pharma Is attacking Cholesterol and Salt despite both being SUPER inportant for brain fuction.. No cholesterol way less synapses on the brain..

Seams like they love to dumb us down..

Yeah I have dysautonomia and salt is so critical but they make it seem so bad. I mean after all electrolytes are salty after all!

I heard CBD is a good complement to aliviate the dysautonomia.. You can look into it if you havent tried yet
