What if everything you've been told about cancer is only half the story? You may have heard that cancer is a genetic disease, a roll of the dice, or simply bad luck.

Is type 2 diabetes an incurable, progressive disease, as many doctors claim? The research says no. There is a simple, food-based approach that has been quietly studied since the 1970s, and it has helped people get their A1C back to normal without Metformin, without insulin, and without giving up a social life. In this episode, Chris Reade, entrepreneur and author of Beating Diabetes, shares his own story: his A1C jumped from normal to 9.1 in a single year, his doctor handed him a prescription and told him diabetes was an incurable, progressive disease. He walked out of that office and decided to find another way. Four months later, his A1C was back in the normal range. No Metformin. No insulin. No extreme diet.
