Before you watch the Beat Diabetes videos below, I want to make it perfectly clear that Adventist Vegetarian Diabetics supports dietary vegans, lacto-ovo vegetarians, and “Adventist non-vegetarians” (who eat “clean” meat/fish). However, we strongly recommend low-carb/keto dietary vegan (< 50 grams total carbohydrates per day). We do NOT support high-carb low-fat dietary vegan.

Dennis Pollock reviews 4 books (including 1 of his own) on how to beat diabetes. 17-min. video.
This is a good time to promote the BEST book for Adventist Vegetarian Diabetics (2nd Ed. published in May 2023)! (Link below.)
Spoiler Alert: Even if you don’t buy the book (Kindle $2.99, paperback $16.99), you can read several chapters online in both formats.

In our Facebook group, the most popular dietary lifestyles are lacto-ovo vegetarian and Adventist non-vegetarian. The most often used diabetes dietary approaches are low-carb high-healthy-fat (LCHF) and low-carb high-protein moderate-fat (LCHP). At the time of this writing, we have not been able to elicit success stories from high-carb low-fat whole-food dietary vegans (WFPB).
The major problem with high-carb low-fat dietary vegans is that they claim their method will “reverse diabetes” by eating freely of all vegetables, fruits, grains, and legumes, without counting calories or carbohydrates. They do not recommend using a glucose meter to check blood sugar daily. They seem to depend only on annual or semi-annual A1C tests and “how I feel.” This approach is in total opposition to our tagline of “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good” (1 Thessalonians 5:21).
