What is low carb eating?

Let's be honest, we love food as much as the next person.

Our approach is simple and isn't extreme dieting. You only need to make small, manageable adjustments that will allow you to enjoy real food, without a blood sugar spike.

Four steps to reducing carbs

Low carb doesn’t need to be hard and you don’t have to miss out!

Healthy fats

  • Eating fat doesn't make you fat.
  • Healthy fats can stabilise your hunger and energy levels.

The Defeat Diabetes way?

Enjoy fats like butter, cream and full-fat dairy. 

Prioritise protein

  • Protein is essential. We need it to build and repair muscle and cells.
  • Keeps you full, and reduces cravings.

The Defeat Diabetes way?

Prioritise meat, chicken, fish or eggs for every meal.

Healthier swaps

  • Use almond or coconut flour when baking.
  • Swap pasta for zucchini 'noodles', and try crisp lettuce instead of tacos!

The Defeat Diabetes way?

Stick to under 50 grams of carbs each day.

Don't deprive!

  • Defeat Diabetes is not a diet; it's a way of life.
  • Enjoy treats like dark chocolate or almond flour cakes. Delicious!

Know your risk and prevent type 2 diabetes

More than 120,000 Australians developed type 2 diabetes in the past year alone.

That's one person diagnosed every 5 minutes!

Although type 2 diabetes is often treated with medication and modifications to diet, it is a serious, life-threatening condition.

Understanding your risk of developing type 2 diabetes is critical. Prevention could save your life.
