Rethinking Diabetes: What Science Reveals About Successful Treatments

Gary Taubes in Conversation with Abby Schwartz

Jan 18, 2024


Join Spark Your Health for a discussion delving into the history and hopeful new future of diabetic treatments based on newer principles and research, featuring award-winning journalist and writer, Gary Taubes, in conversation with Mount Sinai VP of Disease Management, Abby Schwartz.

Gary Taubes pulls back the curtain on the reliance of insulin as a treatment and studies how treatment plans have been taught and guided to both doctors and patients over the past fifty years, while diabetes continues to be on the rise. In his newest book, Rethinking Diabetes, Gary Taubes argues passionately for a rethinking of the current medical treatment regiment for diabetes, while leaning into nutrition support and education and pursuing further clinical trials to support those impacted to the fullest extent. This promises to be a cutting-edge conversation which brings us to the brink of innovation in medical strategies.
