This episode covers the success story of one of Dr Gary’s patients, Andrew Berger, who has used a Sapien diet & lifestyle to manage his type 1 diabetes. Andrew is an inspiration for all of us – not just those with type 1 diabetes. He shows us how we can persevere despite setbacks in our health, even with a broken healthcare system.
