Welcome to Diabetes in Reverse
Hey, we're Jared and David, two nurses on a mission to reverse the decades-long upward trend in obesity, diabetes, and prediabetes across America.
It all started when we met working in the ICU. We watched too many people struggle with diabetes that never had to get that bad, and we set out to change the standard approach to treating it.
Through years of research, we've built a simple, guided process to help you take back control of your diabetes.
Jared's Story with Diabetes
In 2014, my doctor told me I had prediabetes. It caught me off guard. I wasn't obese. I didn't eat junk. I thought those were the things that gave people diabetes.
So I did everything right. Fruits, vegetables, beans, a big bowl of oatmeal every morning. Exactly what you're supposed to eat.
Four years later, I sat in his office while he read my labs off the screen. "You have diabetes. My nurse will teach you to use insulin. Four injections a day." No mention of food. No mention of exercise. No other option but medication.
So I doubled down. Ate even cleaner. Followed the standard advice to the letter.
And I got worse.
For over a year I fought it and lost. Depressed and defeated, I was close to giving up. Doing everything right had made me sick, and no one could tell me why.
Then a close friend told me about a completely different approach that had turned his health around. I had nothing left to lose, so I tried it.
Within two weeks my blood sugars were under control. Working with my doctor, I came off my diabetic medication entirely.
That's when I knew this had to be my life's work.
David's Story with Diabetes
My wife has been a Type 1 diabetic since she was 6. We married when she was 20, and back then I barely understood the disease. I'd sit through her doctor visits and not follow half of what was said. We were doing everything right and still fighting blood sugars we couldn't control.
Then I became an ICU nurse, and I saw the deadly side up close. Kidney failure. Amputations, toes, feet, whole legs. Blindness from retinopathy. All from diabetes complications.
I was overwhelmed and scared for my wife. And as I learned more about the risks around pregnancy and childbirth, I got scared for the children we hoped to have.
But something else happened over those years. Helping my wife manage her Type 1, I'd learned what actually worked, and I started to see those same things could help people with prediabetes and Type 2. The tools were right in front of me.
Standing in that ICU, watching the complications roll through bed after bed, I knew someone had to do something. And I was the one standing there watching it happen. So it had to be me.
How Diabetes in Reverse works — and why it's not like anything you've tried.
Thirty years combined in the ICU. We watched patients suffer through uncontrolled diabetes, handed a pill bottle and told that was the only option. We knew there had to be a better way.
Our system is built on peer-reviewed research and goes straight to the root cause, not just the symptoms.
You get personalized coaching from ICU-trained nurses who've fought this disease at the bedside and in their own families.
No one-size-fits-all protocols. No more medication than your body actually needs. Just real, lasting change.
