When Stanford scholar/athlete Cyrus Khambatta, Ph.D., was 21, his world was rocked by a series of shocking autoimmune diagnoses, including type 1 diabetes. He adopted a low-carb, meat-heavy diet at his doctors’ instructions. After a year of having his glucose plummet and soar uncontrollably, he’d had enough: one day, after a dangerously high reading, he hurled his glucose monitor against the wall, fell onto his couch, and cried. When he stood, he vowed to learn everything he could about nutrition, so he could master his diabetes. Cyrus earned a Ph.D. in nutritional biochemistry from UC Berkeley and then co-created the Mastering Diabetes Method to reverse insulin resistance in all forms of diabetes. He has helped more than 10,000 people improve their metabolic health using this evidence-based protocol. His New York Times bestselling book, Mastering Diabetes, written with Robby Barbaro, has brought him international acclaim as a leading nutrition and fitness coach.
