Welcome,
I'm Dr. Krista Ellow & I am a diabetes medication reduction specialist.
I have never met a single person who wanted to be on medication for type 2 diabetes. But the entire health system is telling them they have no choice.
There is always a choice. Let me help you get started.
Simple Start Tip #1
Write Down Your Blood Sugars (yes really). Here's Why....
-
It helps you figure out how well your medication is working (or not working).
-
It tracks your progress as you work on your health and treatment goals (no more guessing where you started).
-
-
Tracking actually reduces anxiety & increases understanding about high and low blood sugars.

I left the clinic so I could spend a little bit of time getting people off meds, instead of spending years deciding which meds to prescribe next.

Simple Start Tip #2
Learn how to lower your carbs and sugars (glycemic load). Here's why...
-
Reducing carbs and sugars will lead to immediate reduction in blood sugar, and the reason you're on medication is high blood sugar.
-
Reducing carbs and sugars over weeks to months actually starts to reverse insulin resistance, which is the cause of type 2 diabetes, and the reason you're on medication.
-
Eating more simply actually reduces all inflammation in the body and you will start to feel better ALL OVER!!

I Truly Enjoy...
...helping people free themselves from diabetes and all the "rules" that come with it (I hate rules). I help them find a space where they finally feel healthy, balanced, satisfied and accomplished.
For me, it is about you feeling empowered to live the best version of yourself. I want to shift how this disease is treated on a large scale.
