Hi I'm Richard Morris, Canberra Australia. In 2014 I was very sick with complications

from type 2 diabetes. After taking the dietary advice at the Australian Diabetes Association,

I became more diabetic. God, I hate that. Yeah, it's not fun. I did some research though,

which led me to the ketogenic diet. Spoiler alert, I reversed my type 2 diabetes by

drastically reducing my carbohydrate intake and increasing my consumption of healthy fats.

In 2016, I was determined to help my buddy Carb by showing him what I did in the science

behind it. Hey y'all, I'm Carl Franklin from the United

States. I also used to be a type 2 diabetic but not quite as severely as Richard. Yeah.

I devoured all the information Richard sent me and after a mutual friend went keto to

address prostate cancer, I also went on the ketogenic diet. That was in February 2016.

By April, I was in full swing reversing my diabetes. We're not doctors and we don't give

medical advice. We're just a couple of dudes on the internet who reverse the diabetes

by following a ketogenic diet. And we just want to share our experiences and what we know

about the science behind the ketogenic diet. Yeah, so we started this podcast at Chronicle

Carl's Journey and to provide some solid information to those curious about this dietary

lifestyle. Right. And we have over 200 podcast episodes. In fact, this is 223. Nice.

And you know, some of those have been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times. We also have

a community after failing miserably on Facebook miserably. We moved our online community

to the ketogenic forums. We're tens of thousands of people share their experiences.

We also founded an annual ketogenic festival called KetoFest. Cal and I both software

developers. And as such, we found ourselves at software conferences several times a year.

We tend to gravitate towards the conversations that happen in the whole ways at conferences.
