The Keto Community

Braden was diagnosed as a Type 1 Diabetic on the day before school started in 1993. He was told by his coach that he didn’t want him to play football but Braden played football and marched in the band until he graduated from High School in 1998 as a top student with honors. This granted him the opportunity to attend a Top 10 Business Program at The University of Texas at Austin. Upon graduating, he has had opportunities applying data for sports clients in professional sports, political clients, and assisting Civil Engineers. Braden’s desire to use data extends beyond sports. He has a desire to shake the status quo in Type 1 Diabetes Management. This desire came from his own personal transformation after he left a workout in an ambulance and spiked troponin levels, thus believed to have had a heart attack. Today, he has a perfect 0 Calcium CT Score. He has converted his fatty liver into a healthy liver in a period of a year and a half shocking even his own endocrinologist. Braden peaked at 298 pounds before focusing his research and data to his own health management and dropping over 115 pounds. Workout and exercise will only account for about 15%. Nutrition will carry the heavy load and Type 1 Diabetics are already at a huge disadvantage. This is where Braden steps in. He has been on both sides of poor Type 1 Diabetes Management and excellent Type 1 Diabetes Management with an A1C of 5.4. This experience equips to educate with the mantra, “Transformed Lives Transform Others.” He desires to transform the lives of others.
