This document summarizes Ray Kelly's expertise in helping people reverse type 2 diabetes through lifestyle changes. It discusses the high rates of type 2 diabetes in Australia, especially among Indigenous populations. It reviews research showing that intensive lifestyle interventions can help over 70% of people reduce or eliminate diabetes medications and lower blood sugar levels into the normal range. The document outlines Ray Kelly's "Too Deadly for Diabetes" program, which has helped many participants lose significant weight in 10 weeks through simple dietary and exercise changes. Case studies show individuals reducing medications or coming off them entirely after following the program. The conclusion encourages adopting this approach to help patients and lower healthcare costs from chronic disease.

6. What Do We Know?
• Weight contributes (Esp Visceral)
• Any Weight Loss Improves
• Meds increase over time
• Lifestyle > Meds
• Food intake matters
• Exercise improves
• Obstacles include:
• Expense of food
• No time
• Cost of gym membership
• Can’t cook, etc
7. Why Can’t Our People Do This?
• Just need to:
• Follow the dietary guidelines
• Increase activity
Right????
8. This is a problem for all in the western
world!
• Often lose very little weight
• Still progress in medications over time
• Are regularly told “You’re a diabetic for life”
People get the attitude of
‘Why bother!’
9. Cost of Diabetes
(per person, per year)
• $4,025 if no complications (BP, Chol, Eyes, Kidneys, etc)
• Can rise to as much as $9,645
* Chronic failure in primary care (Grattan Institute, 2016)
* Diabetes: the silent pandemic and its impact on Australia (Baker IDI, 2012)
10. The Current Treatments
All medical centres across Australia:
• Less than 50% achieve target blood sugars
• Only 20% achieve target sugars and BP
*Chronic Failure in Primary Care (Grattan Institute, 2016)
This is with specialists, medications, dieticians, physiologists
and more at the GP’s disposal!
11. What’s the Problem?
• Food advice is often vague
• Exercise advice is often unrealistic
• No improvements on the scales
• No motivation
• Dose is given, and patients eat to sustain
that dose….until meds increase…repeat
• Patients taught to LIVE WITH DIABETES!
12. ‘Experts’ say:
• Very complicated
• Tough to treat
Their answer: medications and surgery
But then we have research and programs that blow all
that out of the water!
13. Current ResearchPiloting a Remission Strategy in Type 2 Diabetes: Results of a Randomized Controlled Trial (McInnes, Smith, et al., 2017)
• 70.4% achieved normal sugars
