Hey guys, this is Stu from one 80 nutrition and I am delighted to welcome Dr. Nicki Steinberger back to the podcast. Dr. Nicki, how are you?

Dr. Nicki

I'm fantastic. Stewart. Thank you for having me back. How fun two years later.

Stu

Absolutely. Well, I think that there's a whole heap that we need to catch up on, and no doubt we've all made some learnings during that time as well. So I'm really keen to dial in, but first up for all of our listeners that may not have heard our previous conversation, I would love it if you'd just tell us a little bit about yourself.

Dr. Nicki

Yeah. So if I go back, oh, about 10 years, I could start there and say that I found myself with some peculiar symptoms, shaking and fatigue and getting very burnt out and went into the doctor and had some tests done. And I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. So 2010, 45 years old, and that's when I got to work on questioning, what can I do about this? I don't want to jump into pharmaceuticals. I want to see what I can do with lifestyle. And lo and behold, I tested 12 months later and I had reversed it. So what I was doing was working and that of course felt phenomenal. And I had an aha moment. And then I went on to teach workshops and coach folks and transitioned from going towards psychotherapy into holistic health education, which I had been really studying for most of my life.

I published a book on it in 2019, Wave Goodbye to Type 2 Diabetes. It was endorsed by Dr. Christian Northrup. And then here we are today and talk about I'm opening Ditch the Sugar Academy and working with folks one-on-one and really focusing in on sugar addiction.
