I had two different Fibroscans on my fatty liver by two different drs here in California. The first one showed I had stage 4 fibrosis on my liver... just one step away from cirrhosis. 10 months later I had the other Fibroscan follow-up and it showed NO fibrosis and most everything was "unremarkable". During the course of the 10 months, I went mostly carnivore for awhile and did some keto foods for awhile too, drank less alcohol, mostly reduced carbs and sugar; I wasn't perfect but it all helped. My 2nd Fibroscan showed great improvement! But, neither of the two doctors asked me what I did to improve my liver diagnosis. They said my tests were "unclear" as to why there was the improvement... They just were not interested that I got healthier. Needless to say, I've lost trust in doctors. It's refreshing to see doctors like Dr. Unwin. Thank you.

My husband was 83 when he passed away, but for the last three years, he was on no medication and had no problems with diabetes because I had changed his diet and he also lost 100 pounds of weight which he badly needed to lose. Yes, he can go into admission however, most of the doctors will tell you that no they never go to remission because they’re not educated to that fact. Thank you

I did 90 days without sugar challenge from January 2020. After that, I couldn't go back to sugar. 6 years without sugar, and that was the best decision I made for my health
