When was the last time you had your HbA1c tested?

Five steps; 1. Intermittent fasting 2. Apple Cider Vinegar before bedtime in water. One tablespoon diluted in water. Cold water is best for me. 3. Take a walk in the morning before eating breakfast. 4. Good sleep. 5. Reduce stress.

Hi Kait 😁👋 I enjoyed your Video. My A1c was 7.2 and after 10 months of low sugar intake and reduced carbs with intermittent fasting now it is A1c 4.7 🙂👍☕

01) Intermitted fast (f.e. 16/8; eat between 12pm-8pm window; incorporate electrolytes while fasting) 02) ACV 1 tbs in water 03) take a walk in the morning 04) good sleep 05) reduce stress

Hi Kate! Feb2021 I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes with a A1C of 14.6. I lowered it to 5.8 by May2021 and finally to 5.5 by Nov2021 all with never taking any medication. Your tips and tricks helped a lot so just wanted to say thank you 🙏🏻

1. IF: eating window 8 hr; fasting 16 hr 2. ACV: apple cider vinegar + water - before bed - before eating 3. take a walk in the morning 4. good sleep 5. reduce stress

Man I just got a call from my Dr that I’m prediabetic and I’m here crying because I’m at 5.9 and reading you’ll stories have me smiling thank you so much I will incorporate these tips in my daily routine

Girl your videos helped me get my PCOS in control, regain my periods and I was able to get pregnant with my daughter, I'm 32 weeks along and I just wanted to thank you so much for your videos and education, you made miracles happen with my body! So much love to you Kait!! 💕

Hi Kait, I discovered your video's just before Christmas and have learned a lot. I think it's the way you present and describe the affects of the things we eat and when we eat them. My NY res was to start to pay attention and change my diet quite a bit. I'm getting close to 60 and have all the symptoms of insulin resistance. I actually changed my diet significantly after Christmas and I can feel the difference already. The longest I can fast for is 12 hours as I am on medication for BP and epilepsy (brain tumour). I had 90% of my left temporal lobe removed 5 and 1/2 years ago and since then just put on weight due to lack of ex and simply eating the wrong foods. I'm on a low Carb's diet now and have locked the fridge between meals to stop the snacking, it's a tricky thing because I don't work now. I'm happy to say that I do feel and look better already. Looking in the mirror I see myself ten years younger!!! Thanks Kait, you have made a true difference to me and I'll recommend to anyone I can.🥰

Good video Kait. I had a A1C of 13 in 10/2020. Got placed on Metformin and latter Faxiga which lowered it 6.7 after 6 months. Then after going on a low carb diet and starting intermittent fasting it got down to 5.0. Got off the drugs and have been doing well ever since.

Wow! Great information, Kait. I am currently off on stress leave from work - my HgbAIC was highest it has ever been!! We talk alot about stress, but I tell ya, reducing stress, I have learned, is about the environments I am in. All the meditation, breathwork, exercise, etc could not help my body amidst ... Removal of self from the abusive, toxic work environment is what I had to do. Self care is my job right now and so glad I cam across you!! Thank you😊

my A1c was 9.6. I started drinking AVC and 18-6 intermittent fasting. I stopped high intensity exercise, and started walking. The last blood panel my A1c was 4.6

You helped me huge about 6 months ago. Thanks to you and your suggestions my A1C went from 13.0 to 6.5 in 3 months. I have the proof for the non believers. Kait knows what she's talking about. Thank you so much for everything!

I reversed my type two diabetes 4 years ago,with a healthy diet intermittent fasting 16 hours daily and exercise two hours everyday.

This video was helpful. I have to take better care of myself as type 2 Diabetic. I have really screwed myself up. I live USA in Northern California. Just before Thanksgiving 2022, my right eye went blurry. I went to the ER. and was treated for migraine and high blood pressure. The eye was still blurry. My eye doctor told me, on November 22, 2022, I had a nerve 3 palsy, which my optic nerve went lame. My right eye was down and out. Blurry vision and double vision. I cleared on having no stroke and no anuerysm. The cause was high blood sugar. My A1c was 10. I started going to the doctor again in August 2022 and my A1c was 13. My A1c last month was 8. My eye is healing and my blood sugar is back in normal range with medication, diet, and exercise. I had to do CT imaging scan, for an aneurysm at Renown hospital in Reno Nevada during a huge spike in COVID, RSV, and flu. I got really sick after that. Lesson learned. To the diabetics and prediabetics, stay on course and disciplined. The damage is not good.

Hi Kait, I’m so glad I found your channel, I am absorbing every bit of info you give, recently diagnosed with type 2 and trying hard to reverse it. You give such clear explanations about how to take control of this illness I am very greatful ! 😊

My A1C was 7.7 and now it is 6.6. I am still working on getting it even lower. I will be following these tips. Thank you for this video.

Hi Kait, Glad you posted this helpful tip. I had a test three months ago and will be following up with another soon. It sits at 5.7 which was disappointing but looking at the other blood tests there's been massive improvement with kidney and liver panels back to normal and when I think about it, it's a good sign that Intermittent fasting, along with prolonged fasting has helped me get where I am. Having had a distal pancreatomy the likelihood of type 3c diabetes is inevitable and my aim was to lessen the impact. Apparently there is a 3 year window when this will occur, I am almost at the three year mark since surgery and I am hoping that with steadfast effort I will be able to keep it under control. I am so grateful this journey has been made easier to achieve with great tips. You are right about electrolytes and what a hassle it is to find one without sugar. Thank you.

Hi, KAIT.....Just watched your 5 ways to lower A1C. Loved it. My test in October 'was 11.3. Ate better & test a few days ago reduced that to 9.7. That said, I'm gonna implement your program as my health is becoming atrocious. I have foot neuropathy, sleep apnea, CHF, anemia & COPD just to name a few things. At 86, I might only have a few years left but longevity is a FAMILY TRAIT SO i WANT TO GET BETTER..and BE BETTER! I've subscribed to you & appreciate what you said. Thanks....Paul Maguire 4/30/23

Thank your for your wonderful presentation on A1c. I am 25 years old with 50 years of life experience (meaning I am 75 years old). Couple of months ago, a nurse from SCAN insurance company came to my house to update my health data in their system. She used her equipment to measure my A1c. After the test, she was pleased. My A1c was (if I remember it correctly) around 4.7. At the time, I was doing intermittent fasting where throughout the day I was drinking beet juice (organic beet boiled), Saved its cooked part knowing its oxalate was gone for my meal time with some other vegetable, eggs, sardine., etc. After cooling the beet juice, I squeezed lime (not lemon) and added some cream of tartar (for potassium) and some pink salt (for minerals) to it. One of my possible downfalls recently knowing I am in clear with Aic, I have indulged myself having a few dates after my first meal of the at about noon, These dates are from Trader Joes not Human Dates. I am possibly over doing it; this background information is for the following question. Question: What option are there available to check my A1C? Scan has good online (for over the counter) medication and supplies. I may be able to get one of the products hopefully you will recommend. This way, I don't have to go to my PCP to check my A1c. Thx.

Hi Kait I agree with others that your videos are being pushed out more. I just found your videos last month but have been binge watching m any after a 2 week vacation out of the country. My a1c was 6.4 at my physical on 1/30 and I'd gained 35lbs since my physical 12 months prior. I was prescribed metformin which I refuse to take. I prayed talked to my 5 siblings who all but one had the similar yrs prior. To the point I started IF, lowered my carbs cut out all sugary foods and began walking on t by e treadmill for 45 min 5 days a week. I don't eat out during the business weekdays but never have. I've lost 26lbs so far I don't know I w what my a1c is now but I feel better I get better sleep, less stress I'm 55 retiring next year and can't wait to have my a1c tested again. Oh I fast 20 hrs a day on week days and 116-18 on Saturday and Sunday. Your videos are amazing my mother was an insulin dependent diabetic for 33 years she passed at 83 but not from diabetic complications. I wish I knew all over learned in the last 4 months about the disease I'm sure I could've help her get rid of the medication.

Dear Coach Kait, I wish to express my deepest gratitude for all the insightful and concise information you provide, which is remarkably easy to comprehend. Your guidance has been instrumental in reducing my A1C from 5.9 to 5.6, as well as improving my cholesterol levels. Having blood tests is always a nerve-wracking experience for me. About one or two months ago, when I didn't hear back from the doctor regarding my results, I was perplexed and filled with apprehension. When I finally contacted my doctor, I was informed that they didn't reach out because all my blood results were in the normal range. I was genuinely taken aback. Interestingly, I didn't make drastic changes to my diet, just minor, subtle ones. The most beneficial advice that you provided, I believe, was the encouragement to fast during the night. As a night owl who meets with global clients in the night, it was quite common for me to eat something around 3 am. This was a habit I picked up during my 12 years in the medical field when I worked night shifts and had my meals at such odd hours. Hence, nocturnal eating seemed quite normal to me. However, following your advice, I started fasting from around midnight until about 2-3 pm. There are nights when I slightly break my fast, usually with something high in protein, but for the most part, I manage to fast through. If I falter and break a fast, I don't dwell on it negatively, instead, I aim to do better the next time. I genuinely feel that this fasting regime, occasional apple cider vinegar, and the strategy of pairing proteins with carbs played a significant role in reducing my A1C. Having achieved this, I now appreciate the healing power of food, and the importance of feeding ourselves correctly, especially for those of us dealing with insulin resistance. The wisdom you have shared surpasses any advice I've received from a doctor or dietitian. I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation and acknowledge you as a true blessing and a gift from God. I am certain that your guidance is saving many lives, as it has mine. Please continue doing this incredible work. I cannot thank you enough, and I am not certain if I could have made these strides without your support. Finding your videos was unexpected, but their concise and straightforward nature has made them a joy to watch. Once again, thank you immensely for being such a blessing.

My A1C was tested at 14.0 on 08/22/22 After getting serious about lowering carbs and practicing time restricted eating, my results on 11/30/22 were 7.3. Still high but my daily average blood glucose test have lowered since then and I hope my next A1C is even lower.

Thanks Kait. My husband found your page and he loves and now he’s showing it to me. Thanks for educating us!!!

I have learned so much from your videos and am glad I found them. I love that you don’t just say do so and so but explain the reason behind it. I’ve shared your videos with 2 of my brothers as well. Explaining the reasons behind why you do fasting for instance was an aha moment for me. Not only did it make perfect sense to me but motivated me to try this and I have seen positive results. So thanks so much.

August 1st 2022 I started my lifestyle change and gave myself roughly 90 days. Prior to that I was at a horrid 12.3 A1C….almost insulin dependent and didn’t really know I was diabetic until the symptoms started to present themselves. Hence beginning the august goal. Mid November I went to get my blood work again and this time A1C was at a solid 5.9! Started eating much healthier, leafier darker greens, nothing white or only 10 percent at least (white bread, white pasta, white rice etc) started eating whole wheats, black rices, brown rices, brown pastas etc. stopped ALL form of liquid sugar and desserts! No sodas, sugared teas, smoothies! Juices! All gone and just as important I started lifting and doing light cardio 4 times a week. Everything helps ladies and gentlemen. Definitely also started drinking a couple cups of apple cider vinegar with my meals.

I took my A1C from 11.9 to 6.0 in 3 months by fasting 15 hrs every day!

Hi Coach Kait! Thank you very much for the tips. I've actually been intermittent fasting for almost five months, and I will definitely add what you have suggested to help lower mine, which is at 5.3. I will keep you posted.

Love how simple u explain each five steps

Hi Kate, I reduced A1c from 7.2 to 5.2 in four months with IF, keto and exercise. I also lost 20kgs. Great content! I enjoy learning new tips and tricks :)

Hi from DFW, I just learned after being sick for a while that I have DKA😢. It has changed my life overnight. My A1C is 14, well that's as high as the hospital could measure 😢😢. I am walking and want to try intermittent fasting. I am on a long-term insulin and not sure if I should do a fasting right now. I want my A1C to go down and I believe I will try this...thanks. I hope this helps me lose weight also. Thanks for sharing ❤❤

Thank you! I am recently diagnosed. You covered some issues I'm having Much appreciated

It’s wonderful to see good results like this without added meds. Thank you.

Hi Cait! I love your videos! I was able to bring my HGBA1C from 7 to 6.2 in 3 months (this year), with no medication! I did it with low carb diet, walking and IF. Your videos really helped...thanks! ❤

My a1C = 5.7 down from 6.1. I have lowered carbs, if, food order, checking blood sugar, quit sugary margaritas, for the most part. I need to drink acv at night, I hate it so much though, and start working out again in the am. Nice video!

You are a joy, Kait. I'm learning so much from you. Thank you for making these videos.

Hi Kait. My A1c is now 5.3 thanks to all the advice and tips you have given. I don't go out to walk as often as I should but I have been running and jumping on the spot every morning for about 5 minutes. Eating more protein & fibre. No food other than black and herbal tea after 8.00pm. light breakfast around 8.00am no food till about 14.00pm etc. You're the best 👌💖💐

Tested at diabetic A1c levels last spring. Cut out artificial sweeteners (Sucralose, etc.) do intermittent fasting occasionally, try to eat when I'm hungry and not eat out of boredom, and also do a low-carb/keto approach to eating most days. My fasting glucose has gone from in the 170s to anywhere from 85 to 120, depending on the day, and the stress level. Actually getting my bloodwork done again next week. Anxious to see how my levels look. I am not a perfect specimen of making the best food choices by a long shot, but I also know that I do not want to spend the rest of my life being a slave to insulin or pharmaceuticals, so I do my best to only fall off the rails occasionally :)

A1c is 6.3. I’m trying to start back intermittent fasting. I had great results with it in the past but got off track. I’m trying to eat healthier too. Today is day #1. I’ll give you an update in 3 months when I have a new A1c drawn.

I’m so happy that I did find this channel ❤ God bless you

First time listening to you thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge I’ll be tuning into your channel more often. Greg

Hey Kait. Haven't had my fasting sugar checked in a while but am asking for a bunch of tests when I get my physical this year. I am wondering what your thoughts are on apple cider vinegar tablets vs liquid as well as thoughts on intermittent fasting with reactive hypoglycemia and PCOS?

Down to 5.7. I have implemented all of your ideas plus many more

Thank you for your tips on handling high A1C. Specific tips and tactics are SO helpful, especially if they are easy to implement. Subscribed!

Glad this video came up today! A1C creeps up every year for me. This last check a couple of weeks ago it was 6.4!!!

Hi Kait Great video! Would love more videos like this to help with managing diabetes. I went to check out the electrolytes but unfortunately the ones I wanted were sold out. Hopefully they will be back in stock soon. Keep up the great work!

Thank you you’re a life saver , I am an old lady and high blood sugar is new to me I am seeking all the information available to keep it at bay. God bless you ❤

Hi Kait. Thanks for sharing this useful information. Enjoyed!

I’m working towards lowering. I changed my eating habits by removing daily sugar treats and wearing a glucose monitor. Since January 6th. About six weeks. Also watching carbs, the monitor was/is amazing learning tool for seeing what foods impact my blood sugar. I haven’t added intermittent fasting, not quite there. March 1st is install date. I’m hesitate because it works but in the past, I didn’t maintain and the poor habits and weight came back. My literal health at stake and I have the power to avoid getting diabetes. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Kaitlin! Really appreciate your video! It’s encouraging to know that there are things that can be done that can help. My A1C is 5.7 so I want to get ahead and do something about it now. Your recommendations are simple and easy to use! How long will it take to see results? Thank you 🙏🏾

Thank you for these practical tips!

I am glad I came across your channel. Thank you for the wonderful content.

In 2022 My A1c dropped from 8.5 down to 5.6 thanks in part to your channel! Keep up the great content on health and wellness.

My A1c was 5.7 in October, the first time it's ever been remotely this high. My doctor wasn't concerned, but I'm determined not to get full blown diabetes, especially with the trouble I've been having testing my blood sugar at home. For whatever reason, I don't bleed enough! So I have to get this under control so I don't have to stick myself 14 times to get a single reading.

So glad I found your channel today. I'm watching a lot of your videos. I find the content helpful and I like it that they're short videos. I'm getting back to keto and will incorporate intermittent fasting. I do have insulin resistance and I do love carbs, much to my chagrin. Keto has helped me before so I'm hoping it'll wok again. Thank you for your videos! Keep it up!

There are at least 3 to 4 good to excellent diabetes advisers on KZfaq. With at least two are MD's. However, you are the best. Your clear advice has helped the most to defeat or remove my symptoms. I adore you. Thank you.

My HbA1c is 5.3. Can you make a video regarding the damage sugar causes to the eyes? My blood sugars are nornal but I'm certain my eyes are more blurry and sensitive to light on days when I consume more sugar than usual

Hi Kait ... I'm new to your channel but really enjoyed and was inspired by this video. My A1C was 6.9 and brought it down to 5.7 with a low carb diet and IF. However, I was disappointed last week when my A1C went up to 5.9 so I'm thinking to increase IF 20/4 window or go omad. I'm a work in progress but determined 😊 I'm looking forward searching for your other videos.

Excellent advice! Going to start today! 🙂

Nice simple steps which I am going to try starting this weekend.

Carnivore and berberine took my aic from 5.7 to 4.7 in 6 mo and my fasting glucose from 5.9 to 5.1.

Love your channel! My glucose reading was 74. I ate an apple and 1/4 cup of macadamia nuts and now it is 115 after 2 hours. Been doing the 22/2 fasting and I have never feel better! The 74 reading spooked me. I really don’t want to go lower than 85.

Thank you Kait. I found your video realistic and helpful. 💜

Hi, I enjoyed watching your show and thank you for those helpful tips.

Hi Kate, I've just been told I am diabetic at 6.5. Thank you for all your great content.

So glad I found your channel! I am 73 and in good health but my latest A1c was 6.0 and the Dr wants me back in 3 months with it lower. Can I expect it to lower enough to prevent diabetes in 3 months? I’ve just started with no snacks (or very few between meals if needed), and fasting 12 -13 hrs every night . Love your videos! ❣️

Very helpful video thank you so much

This was very informative!

Excellent clip Miss Kait.

love this page very insightful. thanks for the info

So glad to have explored your channel. I’m a type1 diabetic and have been having raised levels of hba1c and feeling like shit all the time. I noticed how much my card intake has increased since I started living independently and I have reduced animal products from my diet which explains the problem
