Featured patient story
Man With 11% A1C Level Changes Life Through Diet | Jay Hunt
Jay Hunt was at his son’s wedding in Colorado when he began having trouble breathing and could barely put one foot in front of the other. The trip to the mountains and photos from the celebration in June 2018 caused him to make changes in his lifestyle. Learning healthy eating habits helped Jay shed more than 40 pounds, lower his A1C from 11 to 5.4 and no longer need the long list of medications he was taking daily.
