  • Finally diabetes education applied to Filipino food! Please make more health-related foods related to Filipino food specifically for diabetics. It is so hard for Pinoys because the food relies heavily on rice.
  • This video is so informative and helpful. I was diagnosed with diabetes 6 weeks ago and I'm still struggling to understand what I can and cannot eat. Thank you for this!!
  • i Love how informative and fun this video is, kept me hooked til the end <3 more please

  • @topofladder
    been a diabetic for 18 years and the diet I wish I followed from the beginning is the dash diet Although it is for people with high blood pressure its great for people in general as this diet allows for more vegetables and fruits which is always a good thing and reduced salt and reduced fat in the meal plan. I just started the Dash diet and I don't even miss things like pizza or fries or any of that stuff because I know i;m going to be having a great meal that will fill me up and will be real food with good nutrition

    I was diagnosed with diabetes 30+ yrs ago and I am a Type 2 diabetic that is insulin dependent and have been injecting insulin for 33yrs. Diabetes education is so much better these days. Ive learned more in the last few yrs then I have in the whole 33yrs I've been a diabetic. Im happy to have found your channel.
  • Thank you so much for this! My father in law has been a type 2 diabetic for years but has not been making the best healthy choices. Rice is such a huge part of his meals but I’ll definitely let him know the tip you shared about not eating it freshly cooked.
  • @kalilove8153
    Would love to see more videos like these! Very informative and entertaining!
  • @YvanIke
    OMG, I love her! No dull moment!
  • @zee4347
    Please make more of this. It is very helpful.
  • You Did Not Choose To Be Classified As Diabetic, But You Can Choose To Fight Back Against Diabetes 💪
  • @bamski8412
    Forgot to say…I’ve been watching FEATR for it’s innovative content but ONLY SUBSCRIBED because of Jo Sebastian’s program! Very relevant! KUDOS!!! 🙏
  • Jo is the best!!!!!!! Thank you Featr team for having these educational content for our kababayan to learn more about. Pinoy health is so so important!!!!
  • @Andrea11240
    I just found your channel. I love it!! I'm a 65 year old Type 2 diabetic trying to avoid going on Ozempic! 😫 Thank you for the wonderful exercises!!💞💞💞
  • @case.rapone
    I’ve been really trying to educate myself (thank you YouTube university) on type 2 diabetes to help my boyfriend feel and eat better, get to live to be happier and a couple years longer would be a great bonus too!! he’s been better at taking his insulin more regularly (mostly because I do it for him but I don’t mind) so that’s good so far but what I’m making a goal for him, with his permission and doctors approval of course, off insulin within a years time. Ive been reading and watching that this can be done in a safe and steady way. That’s obviously the most important aspect of this whole journey. Safety. I’m rambling, but to bring it back to the video…this is hands down the most thorough but simple video I watched, compliments to you on making this digestible and easy to understand. I just wanna say I think you should do more videos like this they could really help people!!! I will definitely be showing him this video along with a few others to watch together, thank you so much!!!
