Three things you can use in clinic on Monday

A single sheet, written in plain language, that you can photocopy and give out at the end of an appointment. It covers the mechanism in one paragraph, four concrete steps for the week, what to expect day by day, and a clear warning to speak to you first if the patient is on insulin, a sulfonylurea or antihypertensives. The QR code opens a free seven-day email plan, so your patient has daily structure between appointments without any further work from you.

The randomized trials most likely to come up in clinic, each with its PMID so you can reach the source in one step: meal timing and frequency, glycemic control and insulin requirement, weight and cardiometabolic risk, the mechanistic meal studies, and referenced answers to the three objections you will actually hear - protein, cost, and "my symptoms are not metabolic". Findings are given by direction of effect only; the numbers belong with the papers.

What to say, what to check, and - the part most often missed - which medicines need attention in the first two weeks. This diet changes drug requirements before it changes the next set of labs: insulin requirement can fall within days. Includes a medication watch-list covering insulin, sulfonylureas, SGLT2 inhibitors, antihypertensives, warfarin and levothyroxine, a baseline lab list, B12 and supplementation, and a week 2 / 6 / 12 follow-up schedule.
