Struggling with type 2 diabetes, high blood sugar, or climbing A1C?
Sick of more prescriptions, more side effects, and feeling stuck?


The Diabetes Remission Roadmap is the podcast for people with type 2 diabetes who are sick of being told they’ll be on medications for life. 


This podcast is your roadmap to reverse type 2 diabetes naturally — so you can lower your A1C, get off meds, lose weight, and get your energy back.

Each week, your hosts Brian Bisher and Cory Jenks — pharmacists turned health coaches — share tips on medication, movement, muscle building, mindset and more.


This is the informatin your doctor should have told you. We promise it'll be much more fun and useful than sitting through another diabetes education class.

In today’s episode, we’re talking about something most parents have never been told — how early our relationship with sugar is actually formed.

Ready to take control of your health too? Book your free Blood Sugar Breakthrough Call and let’s put together a winning game plan for your situation.

Breaking news for anyone on GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy): major patient assistance programs are being dropped for Medicare patients.

Most people with Type 2 diabetes are stuck in patterns they know aren’t working — but can’t seem to break. They follow doctor’s orders, take the medications, and get their labs checked... yet still feel tired, frustrated, and dependent. In this episode, Brian breaks down why that happens — and how the illusion of control from medication keeps so many people trapped in the patient mindset. You’ll learn the key difference between the Patient Mindset (getting things done to you) and the Rebel M...
Would a good Father want His child to stay diabetic, sick, and stuck on medications forever? Of course not.

In this solo episode, Cory pulls back the curtain on what really drives diabetes reversal — and it’s not the crash diets or miracle meds you’ve been sold. It’s the hidden math of daily choices. Just like compound interest, every decision adds up. A skipped walk here, an extra soda there, or a workout cut short doesn’t feel like much in the moment… until those little choices compound into a diagnosis. The good news? The same math works in your favor. Small shifts — like walking after meals, ad...

Cory kicks off this solo show with a spicy question: “What’s the beef with Costco rotisserie chicken?” 🐔💥 You’ll hear the story of a client who swapped out his nightly pasta mountain for the warehouse-club classic—only to have his doctor zero-in on the chicken’s ingredient list instead of celebrating a drop in post-meal glucose. In 10 fast-moving minutes, Cory covers: Macro math that matters — why a ready-to-eat bird still trumps carb-heavy comfort food.Perfection paralysis vs. practical prog...
