Taking medications for Type II Diabetes ?

Recently diagnosed with Type II Diabetes?

Told you have Pre-Diabetes?

Type II Diabetes is increasingly being recognized as reversible with intensive lifestyle interventions.
​The Wellness Garage Diabetes Reversal Program is a physician-led, team based approach to help you safely reverse your diabetes through intensive lifestyle changes.

Learn more about the science behind lifestyle interventions in diabetes:

• Is Diabetes Reversible - Part I
• Is Diabetes Reversible - Part II
• Is Diabetes Reversible - Part III

The year-long program starts with a detailed assessment , that identifies your current metabolic health and reviews your current lifestyle risk factors and behaviours that are contributing to your diabetes.

Using proven science, our multi-disciplinary team of physicians, nutritionists, exercise professionals and health coaches design a personalized plan for you to optimize your nutrition, exercise, sleep and stress tolerance.
​
Our physicians manage your medications - reducing them as your nutrition and exercise habits change - allowing you to safely reverse insulin resistance and the metabolic dysfunction that led to your diabetes diagnosis.

Our primary concern is your safety as you make changes.
Medication management is critical in any diabetes program.  Our physicians will manage medication changes to avoid hypoglycemic (low blood sugar) episodes.
