Brooklyn borough president Eric Adams (NYPD for 22 years) reversed his diabetes through WFPB. In 2020, he wrote a book to educate the public about this food-based intervention.
Eric has appeared in many YouTube videos showcasing his reveral story of Type 2 Diabetes reversal. Excerpts from this video (3 mins, 2020) — presentation to USDA Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee, 2020:
He retired from New York City Police Departmant.
One morning, he couldn't see the alarm clock upon waking up. Was told he was losing eyesight ("blind in one eye"); met 5 doctors; diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes; was told he had permanent damage in hands and feet; was told he was going to lose some limbs. Started doing research (Eric says he has good research & investigation skills, having been in NYPD for so many years). Discovered WFPB and PCRM (Dr Neal Barnard's organization).
After 3 weeks of WFPB, eyesight returned. Within 3 months, A1C dropped from 17 to 5.7. "Nerve damage in hands and feet went away." "No medicine, no insulin, only food!"
His mother (80 years old, 15 yrs diabetic, 7 yrs insulin, 9 medicines) reversed her diabetes within 2 months: zero insulin, zero medicines.
"It was never my DNA; it was my dinner!" — Eric
Eric Adams experienced reversal of damage to his nerves and eyes. Is WFPB known to reverse nerve damage (diabetic neuropathy) and restore eyesight (reversal of diabetes retinopathy)? See Dr Greger's 7-min video above.
Eric appears in several YouTube videos where he shares his personal story, imploring people to adopt WFPB.
