Her Doctor LAUGHS At Her, Gets FIRED | Dr. Shawn Baker & Alex | #diabetes Month

Alex is 33 years old and has been a type 1 diabetic since she was 3 years old. She found Dr. Bernstein's book when she was 26 and started following his methods the next day. Since then, she has reversed most of the long-term complications that she was told were progressive and irreversible and has turned her health around completely. Now, she is very active in the online diabetes community, helping other diabetics find their way to what living a good life with type 1 diabetes looks like for them.
