This program changed my life! For the first time, I feel that I understand diabetes and that I have some control over this disease! I eat better, have lost weight, reduced my medications and stopped taking insulin. I feel that I have better control over my health. A big thank you to Dr. Byrne and his staff for running this program.

The 4+2 Diabetes Reversal will actually do just that. Dr. Byrne is not only highly professional and knowledgeable but also an excellent communicator as well as a compassionate person. Information is presented in a way that is easily understood and actionable. All questions are addressed in each session. I have been able to take the information provided and cut my diabetes medication in half, reach a normal BMI as well as lower A1C and cholesterol levels in a very short period of time. Best of all I have renewed energy and feeling well again

My doctor gave up on me, and then I found Wellness Garage on Facebook. It was a lifesaver for me. I made great progress in a very short period of time. Lost weight - only got to lose 15 more pounds. My depression has subsided, I feel hopeful. I'm on my way to be the first person to reverse Type II Diabetes in 3 generations of diabetics. I'm forever thankful to Dr. Byrne to help me and others to get out of this misery and free us and show us a way out. You can do it, it's a lifesaver.

Excellent program, very informative, led by Dr Byrne who is very empathic and non-judgemental. Delivered in a professional way that is easy to understand. Lots of enthusiasm and encouragement. Provides weight management and insulin resistance information including general wellness and nutritional advice. I have seen great results in a relatively short time period. Would absolutely recommend it.

This program helped me change my lifestyle drastically in a great way. The nutritional aspect of the program was what really helped me control my glucose levels. Learning about what whole foods I should be consuming to help my body function better made me more conscious of what to buy. Additionally, I learned the importance of exercise as a person with diabetes. It motivated me to go for walks every day and decreased my sugar levels significantly. There were many other useful bits of information that I learned overall in this program. It truly made me want to make important changes in my life so I could live a life without worrying about my diabetes.
