I met an extraordinary couple while attending a nutrition conference earlier this year in Phoenix, Arizona who head a television production company called Atlanta Teleproductions. Richard and Melanie Vogan have over three decades of filming experience and they are using that to help spread the message of low-carb living for diabetics through a series of interviews with the experts. That’s why they created a new web site called DiabetesNewsStand.com which is “dedicated to the education and prevention of the "diabetes epidemic.”
How are they gonna do that? By sharing amazing videos online with interviews featuring the most knowledgeable and successful doctors and diabetes experts in the world today. It’s an ambitious project that certainly warrants the support of anyone who cares about taming the exploding diabetes epidemic with real, innovative solutions to the problem–not more of the same failed treatments centered around prescribing more and more medications and insulin. Regular “V-Issues” will be presented on this new web site to share from the researchers, physicians, authors, nutritionists, and advocates of healthy living for people suffering from diabetes.
First up is their interview with Dr. Mary C. Vernon, who discusses insulin resistance, the role of insulin in the body, blood sugar abnormalities, traditional vs. dietary measures for controlling diabetes, and so much more. As you will quickly notice, Dr. Vernon is arguably the most articulate and ardent supporter of a low-carbohydrate dietary approach for controlling diabetes in the world today. Her enthusiastic and impassioned plea for people to take notice of livin’ la vida low-carb is difficult to ignore. This diabetes doc from Lawrence, Kansas is the real deal and she’s making a difference in the lives of her patients who embrace the concepts she talks about with them individually as well as in the book she co-wrote with Jackie Eberstein entitled Dr. Atkins’ Diabetes Revolution. That why she's been nominated for the 2008 "Diabetes Educator of the Year" award and deserves all the accolades she has received.
Kudos to Richard and Melanie Vogan for starting off their new “V-Issues” series with a bang by presenting this fabulous interview with Dr. Mary C. Vernon to the online world. You’ll be seeing a lot more of these in the coming months, so be sure to check DiabetesNewsStand.com for even more outstanding interviews and comments from the biggest names in low-carb living! If you would like to support this effort to share even more videos from low-carb experts in the future, then e-mail Melanie at melanie@diabetesnewsstand.com or call her in Atlanta at 770-777-1265. After spending some quality time with Richard and Melanie, I can tell you they are as committed to the cause of sharing the truth about livin’ la vida low-carb as I am. Whatever you can donate to this cause I know will be used for the greater good of promoting low-carb to those who need to hear it the most.
