About this episode

Mark A. Ashford shares his personal journey of managing and reversing Type 2 Diabetes through lifestyle changes and updates on his health progress.

I am a Type 2 Diabetic. I was diagnosed in December 2022. Since being diagnosed I have made a lot of life style changes with the goal of being off my diabetes medication. In November 2023 I achieved that goal. In April 2025 my doctor recommended I stopped using a Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor - CGM to monitor my blood glucose levels. I have a positive mindset, I adhere to the Life Style Changes I speak about and as of 2026/February/11 I now have a Hemoglobin A1c test result of 5.6% mml/L, which is just 0.1% above the threshold for a Normal reading. Yeah! I also have a new book out, Metabolic Syndrome and Diabetes. It is available on Amazon in eBook, Audio Book and Paperback. This is my journey and my relationship with diabetes.
