What Sets ADS Apart?

We are committed to transforming the landscape of diabetes care. Our approach sets us apart from other organizations, ensuring that every action we take is rooted in transparency, independence, and a genuine dedication to improving the lives of those affected by diabetes. Here’s how ADS stands out in our mission to revolutionize diabetes prevention, management, and treatment.

Unwavering Transparency

We commit to full transparency in our operations. Every donation, financial statement, and fund allocation will be openly available on our website, ensuring you know where our donations came from, and exactly how your contributions are being used.

Independence from Big Industry

The ADS will never accept donations from big-food or big-pharma companies. Donations exceeding $10,000 will require board approval, maintaining our unbiased commitment to your health. Our advice to people with diabetes will never be swayed by million dollar donations.

Practical Support

Our website will offer a diverse selection of easy-to-prepare low-carb recipes, ensuring you can enjoy delicious meals while managing your blood sugar levels effectively. Additionally, we provide lifestyle tips and practical advice tailored to help you maintain normal blood sugar levels and lead a healthier life.

Research for the Future

We are dedicated to funding critical research aimed at finding a cure for type 1 diabetes and proven methods to help those with type 2 diabetes reverse their condition with minimal or no medication.

Education and Advocacy

We will educate healthcare professionals on the most effective diabetes management techniques and advocate for dietary changes in hospitals, long-term care facilities, and schools to prevent and improve diabetes more effectively.

Public Policy Influence

ADS is set to challenge and change the public perception and policy regarding diabetes, advocating that type 2 diabetes is preventable and reversible, and that type 1 diabetes can be managed with significantly less insulin, and fewer hypoglycemic episodes.
