How to Reverse Type 2 Diabetes Without Medication with Dr David Unwin
Saison 2 · Épisode 33
jeudi 29 octobre 2026 • Durée 48:36
In this episode, Dr Elizabeth Thompson talks with Dr David Unwin, a GP based near Southport, about his journey from a conventional, prescription-first approach to becoming aleading voice in lifestyle medicine for type 2 diabetes. David reflects candidly on the years he spent frustrated with patients who weren't improving, before realising the problem lay with the advice he was giving rather than the patients themselves. He describes how a shift toward low-carb, collaborative, and data-driven care, sparked by his wife Jen's encouragement to run free evening clinics, transformed both his practice and his own health, as someone living with type 2 diabetes himself. The conversation covers the ethics ofinformed consent, the risks and benefits of GLP-1 drugs, the power of visual tools like his sugar-teaspoon infographics, and the remarkable outcomes his practice has achieved, including drug-free diabetes remission in as little as eight weeks for some patients.
Key Takeaways:
159 patients achieved drug-free type 2 diabetes remission, averaging just 8 weeks
Practice saved the NHS over £350,000 in diabetes drug costs since 2018
93% of pre-diabetic patients reached normal blood sugar on a low-carb diet
GLP-1 drugs carry real risks; informed consent matters as much as the prescription
Sugar-teaspoon infographics, translated into 39 languages, made glycemic load easy to grasp
Turning point: realising he was to blame for patients' lack of progress, not the patients themselves
Collaborative, choice-based care improved outcomes and strengthened doctor-patient trust
Over 30 peer-reviewed papers built on real-world data from his own practice
About Our Guest: Dr David Unwin is a family doctor at the Norwood NHS Surgery in Southport, UK, where he's practiced since 1986. He's helped 150 of his Type 2 diabetes patients achieve drug-free remission, one of the best results of any clinic in the world, by pioneering a low-carb approach to treatment.
A Royal College of General Practitioners clinical advisor on diabetes and Fellow of the college, David has published over 20 research papers on reducing dietary carbohydrate toimprove blood pressure, cholesterol and kidney and liver function. His famous "teaspoons of sugar" infographics have been translated into 35 languages and downloaded millions of times, and his research has twice been recognised, including "paper of the year" from the International Academy of Nutrition Educators, and the most-read paper in BMJ Nutrition's history. Together with his wife, psychologist Dr Jen Unwin, he's spoken to audiences worldwide and hiswork has been featured by the BBC, the New Scientist, The Times, and the British Medical Journal among others. He shares his insights with over 100,000 followers as @lowcarbGP on Twitter. READ THE FULL SHOW NOTES HEREIf you’re interested in learning more about Integrative Medicine, you can:

No Visible Disease: How Dale Atkinson Refused to Accept a Terminal Cancer Diagnosis
Saison 2 · Épisode 32
jeudi 15 octobre 2026 • Durée 47:23
In one of the most extraordinary conversations on the Integrative Medicine Matters podcast, Dr Elizabeth Thompson speaks with Dale Atkinson, a former financial crime investigator diagnosed with stage four oesophageal cancer in October 2024 and given less than twelve months to live — amid his partner's own cancer surgery and his mother's sudden death. Rather than accept a purely palliative path, Dale applied the forensic thinking from his career to build his own Integrative Oncology protocol: combining chemotherapy and immunotherapy with mistletoe therapy, high-dose vitamin C, hyperbaric oxygen, targeted supplementation and anti-inflammatory nutrition, mapped against his tumour's genetic sequencing. By July 2025, he had no visible signs of disease. He shares how he did it, and why he co-founded 'Beyond the Standard' to push for systemic change in integrative oncology.
Key Takeaways:
✦ His career investigating financial crime gave him the research skills to forensically analyse his own diagnosis
✦ Next generation sequencing of his tumour geneticsformed the foundation of his entire treatment protocol
✦ At its peak his protocol included mistletoe, high dose vitamin C, hyperbaric oxygen, infrared saunas and up to 180 pills a day
✦ When he eased off the protocol after clearing the cancer, it began to return - maintenance is as critical as the initialintervention
✦ 76% of cancer patients use complementary approaches alongside standard of care, yet the NHS records none of it
✦ His message to every patient: ask questions, push back, and do not let politeness cost you your life
About Our Guest: Dale Atkinson spent nearly two decades working in financial crime prevention, regulatory compliance and governance for organisations including HSBC & Deutsche Bank. In October 2024, he was diagnosed with stage IV oesophageal cancer and told his treatment would be palliative, following the death of his mother and his partner’s cancer diagnosis within the space of a few weeks. Drawing on analytical skills from his career, Dale researched his own integrative care plan, combining conventional treatment with evidence-informed lifestyle, complementary and repurposed interventions. In 2026, scans showed no visible signs of disease. Dale is co-founder of Clear Signal Partners, a consultancy focused on trust, performance and hidden organisational risk and owner of Peak Health & Fitness. He is trustee and director of the Pure Serenity Foundation and co-founder of cancer charity Beyond the Standard. He is developing a portfolio non-executive career across healthcare and financial services governance and writing a book 'Killing Dave' named after the tumour his eldest son named “Dave”.

Saison 2 · Épisode 31
jeudi 1 octobre 2026 • Durée 39:29
In this richly inspiring conversation, Dr Elizabeth Thompson welcomes Jayn Sterland, Managing Director of Weleda, to explore what happens when business, nature and integrative health collide. Jayn shares her journey from a high-flying global career in fashion to leading one of the world's most purpose-driven natural health and skincare companies, a path shaped by a pivotal moment at her son's hospital bedside. Together they explore the philosophy of anthroposophy, the science and soul of biodynamic farming, and Weleda's extraordinary global work with farming communities from Moldova to Morocco. With warmth, honesty and hard-won wisdom, Jayn makes a compelling case that integrative health isn't radical or alternative, it's simply common sense.
Key Takeaways:
Mind, body and emotions are inseparable, health is whole
A midlife values crisis can be your greatest turning point
Biodynamic farming works with nature, not against it
Sustainability means putting back as much as you take out
Ethical business and commercial success can go hand in hand

Homeopathy and the Human Side of Oncology with Dr Jean Lionel Bagot
Saison 2 · Épisode 30
jeudi 17 septembre 2026 • Durée 38:00
Dr Jean-Lionel Bagot, founder of France's first outpatient integrative oncology centre in Strasbourg, joins Dr Elizabeth Thompson to share his vision of a medicine that was never meant to be divided. Drawing on decades of clinical experience in oncology, palliative care, and homeopathy, Dr Bagot makes a passionate case that Integrative Medicine is not a new idea, it is simply good medicine, with the patient at its centre. He takes us inside his remarkable day clinic model, now replicated across six French cities, where cancer patients receive free, multidisciplinary integrative care, from homeopathy and acupuncture to mindfulness and a shared therapeutic meal. The conversation ranges from the practicalities of reducing chemotherapy side effects with homeopathy, to the profound importance of listening, examining, and sending every patient home with a smile.
Key Takeaways
• Integrative oncology is simply good medicine — conventional and complementary care united around the patient
• France now has six free integrative oncology day clinics offering homeopathy, acupuncture, mindfulness and more
• Homeopathy does not interfere with chemotherapy — over 10,000 isotherapic prescriptions with zero cases of interference
• Isotherapy (homeopathic potency of the patient's own drug) significantly reduces chemotherapy side effects
• Start homeopathy at diagnosis, not after side effects develop — prevention is far more effective than cure
• Ascending potencies of Phosphoricum Acidum offer real relief for cancer-related fatigue
• Organotherapy supports organs and nerves damaged by treatment, including chemo-induced peripheral neuropathy
Deep listening and thorough examination are not just clinical tools — they are acts of healing in themselves
Intensive Care to Aromatherapy: One Nurse's Journey to the Heart of Healing with Rhiannon Lewis
Saison 2 · Épisode 29
jeudi 3 septembre 2026 • Durée 44:12
In this brilliant episode of Integrative Medicine Matters, Dr Elizabeth Thompson sits down with Rhiannon Lewis, a former intensive care nurse turned clinical aromatherapist, educator and founder of the International Clinical AromatherapyNetwork, a global community of over 2000 practitioners in more than 90 countries.
Rhiannon brings a rare combination of clinical rigour, deep botanical knowledge and genuine passion for the therapeutic potential of essential oils, and the conversation that unfolds is one of the most practically rich and scientifically grounded explorations of aromatherapy we have had on this podcast.
Together Elizabeth and Rhiannon explore the history and science of essential oils, the growing evidence base across anxiety, sleep, pain management and cancer care, the remarkable emerging research on antimicrobial resistance and biofilm disruption, and why something as simple as the smell of a rose or a sprig of lavender can produce measurable changes in our neuroendocrine system and skin inflammation. What emerges is a compelling case for why aromatherapy deserves a much more prominent place in modern integrative healthcare, and a powerful reminder that nature has been offering us its medicine for a very long time.
Key Takeaways
🌿 Essential oils are concentrated chemical cocktailswith measurable therapeutic effects, not just pleasant smells
🧪 The strongest evidence for aromatherapy is in anxiety, sleep, nausea and pain management
💊 Peppermint and menthol are showing remarkableresults for chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy
🦠 Essential oils can disrupt biofilm and bacterialcommunication making them a powerful tool in the fight against antibiotic resistance
🌹 Choice and personalisation are built into every aromatherapy treatment giving patients genuine agency in their care
From Pharmacy to Ayurveda: One Practitioner's Journey to the Root Cause with Bobby Sira
Saison 2 · Épisode 28
jeudi 20 août 2026 • Durée 43:19
In this wide-ranging episode of Integrative Medicine Matters, Dr Elizabeth Thompson sits down with Bobby Sira, a pharmacist turned integrative practitioner whose journey has taken him from conventional pharmacy through Ayurveda, yoga, functional medicine and integrative oncology.
Bobby holds the precision of modern science and ancient Ayurvedic wisdom in the same breath, finding in both a shared language of flow, balance and healing. Together they explore his concept of horizontal and vertical healing, the parallels between Ayurveda and pharmacogenomics, and why the body's soil must be prepared before medicine can truly work.
What emerges is a philosophically rich yet practically grounded conversation, ending with a simple but profound reminder: we cannot solve the problems inside us with only the things outside us.
In this show you will learn about:🌿 True healing moves in two directions at once, horizontally through tools and treatments and vertically through inner rootedness and purpose
🌱 The body is like soil and must be prepared before any medicine can truly take root and flourish
🧬 Ayurveda and modern epigenetics are converging on the same ancient truth about identity and balance
💊 Pharmaceuticals are one tool among many and must always be used in relationship to the whole person
🔬 Pharmacogenomics is already here and will transform how we prescribe and personalise cancer treatment
🧘 Just five minutes of daily meditation measurably reduces inflammation and changes how we receive and process everything around us
🕯️ Illness can be understood as a loss of cellular identity and healing as the journey back to wholeness
🌟 Knowing what lights someone up is one of the most powerful clinical tools a practitioner can have
About the Guest:
Bobby is an Integrative Pharmacist and founder of PharmAveda UK, repositioning pharmacists as clinical integrators within personalised and integrative oncology. A King's College London graduate with over 25 years across NHS and private healthcare, he began questioning a system brilliant at targeting disease but underpowered in supporting the terrain. This led him to train in Yoga, Meditation and Ayurveda in India, alongside nutrition, counselling and therapeutic movement. Bobby's practice is further shaped by advanced training in Integrative Metabolic Oncology, including fasting-mimicking protocols, ketogenic strategies and metabolic modulators.
Functional Medicine, Spirituality and the Art of Whole Person Care with Dr Sally Bramley
Saison 2 · Épisode 27
jeudi 6 août 2026 • Durée 42:34
In this rich and deeply moving episode of Integrative Medicine Matters, Dr Elizabeth Thompson sits down with Dr Sally Bramley, a conventionally trained doctor who found her way to integrative and functional medicine through two pivotal experiences: a serious illness that shook her to her core, and a period of profound aliveness spent in New Zealand that opened her eyes to what health could truly feel like. Sally brings a rare and beautiful combination of rigorous scientific training, functional medicine expertise, somatic therapy, mindfulness practice and deep spiritual inquiry to her work, and the conversation that unfolds is one of the most honest and wide ranging explorations of what it means to truly heal that we have had on this podcast.
Together Elizabeth and Sally explore the limitations of the fix it model in conventional medicine, the role of the nervous system in healing, the rising importance of the divine feminine in healthcare, what compassion really means in a clinical context, and why illness, rather than being something to befought and removed, might sometimes be the body's most important invitation to change.
Key Takeaways:
🌿 Integrative medicine offers the freedom to meet each person exactly where they are
🔬 Functional medicine is a powerful framework but only works when it addresses root causes not just symptoms
💔 Personal illness can become the greatest doorway to deeper healing and genuine clinical compassion
🧠 The body holds an extraordinary intelligence that is always trying to heal given the right conditions
🌸 The nervous system must feel safe before any real healing can begin
🤝 True compassion means fully seeing someone exactlywhere they are without needing them to be different
✨ Illness can be an invitation to change rather than simply an enemy to be defeated
🎨 The best clinical practice is a creative responsive dance not a rigid protocol
Killing Carbs: The Answer to Type 1 Diabetes? with Dr Ian Lake
Saison 2 · Épisode 26
jeudi 23 juillet 2026 • Durée 45:19
In this fascinating episode, Dr Elizabeth Thompson sits down with Dr Ian Lake, a biochemist turned GP who also happens to have lived with Type 1 diabetes for over 30 years. Ian shares the remarkable story of how a terrifying hypoglycaemic episode alone in a field in Norway, combined with an early diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy, led him to radically rethink how he managed his condition. Drawing on his background in biochemistry, his training in traditional Chinese medicine and his discovery of the pioneering work of Dr Richard Bernstein, Ian made the decision to dramatically reduce his carbohydrate intake and focus on managing insulin rather than glucose. The results were profound. What follows is one of the most illuminating conversations you will hear about how the body truly works, why insulin is far more important than we are typically told, what ketones actually are and why they are nothing to fear, and how a 1000 mile cycling trip through the Alps became the ultimate real world experiment in metabolic health, ending in a book that could genuinely change how Type 1 diabetes is understood and managed.
In this show you will learn about:
🚴 A near fatal hypo in Norway changed everything
🔬 Insulin matters more than glucose, always
🥑 You don't need to eat carbs to have enough glucose
🍄 Nutritional ketosis and diabetic ketoacidosis are completely different things
🧠 Ketones are a powerful and natural brain fuel
⏰ Timing your meals around insulin's natural rhythm is a game changer
🏔️ Low carb eating gave Ian the freedom to cycle 1000 miles without worry
📖 Shifting Gears puts the science of insulin into language everyone can understand
About the Guest:
Dr Ian Lake is a GP with 37 years of clinical experience based in Stroud, holding degrees in Medical Cell Biology, Biochemistry and Medicine from the University of Liverpool. Diagnosed with LADA, a form of Type 1 diabetes, in his mid thirties, Ian spent two decades managing his condition conventionally before switching to a very low carbohydrate diet with transformative results. He is now one of the UK's most passionate advocates for low carb approaches in Type 1 diabetes, speaking at conferences nationally and founding member of the Public Health Collaboration, a charity dedicated to promoting real food for health. His new book "Shifting Gears" tells the story of his 1000 mile cycle ride through the Alps and his journey to understanding insulin metabolism in a whole new way.
The King's Physician Who Changed British Healthcare with Dr Michael Dixon
Saison 2 · Épisode 25
jeudi 9 juillet 2026 • Durée 42:30
In this inspiring episode of Integrative Medicine Matters, Dr Elizabeth Thompson sits down with Dr Michael Dixon GP, pioneer and one of the most quietly revolutionary figures in British healthcare. Michael shares the remarkable story of how a rainy morning drive to surgery, chronic migraines, eczema and a profound sense of professional dissatisfaction led him to open his practice to a Christian healer and how that one decision changed everything. What followed was a 30-year journey that took him from curious country GP to the architect of the social prescribing movement now operating in over 40 countries. Together they explore why human connection is the foundation of all healing, why our health service is financially unsustainable without a radical shift upstream, and why the answers to our biggest health challenges may lie not in the next pharmaceutical breakthrough, but in farms, forests, communities and each other.
What You'll Learn in this Episode:
🌿 Integrative medicine is simply good medicine that puts the whole person first
💊 Over medicalisation is making us sicker and our health system financially unsustainable
🤝 Human connection is not a soft extra — it is one of our most powerful therapeutic tools
🌱 Social prescribing started with one GP and one vision and is now a global movement in 40 countries
🏡 Connected communities where everyone plays a role are one of the most effective medicines we have
🌾 Farms, forests and nature are not luxuries — they are the next frontier of preventive healthcare
🔬 Cancer, obesity and mental health crises are rising because of how we live — we must go upstream
🙌 When clinicians treat the whole person they rediscover the joy that brought them to medicine in the first place
