In 2018, the NHS gave the green light for GPs to prescribe the GroHealth low-carb programme for type 2 diabetes. Louise Wates spoke to Arjun Panesar, one of the brains behind its creation.
Also available to anyone without a prescription, the GroHealth low-carb programme, which comes under the umbrella of Diabetes Digital Media, can be accessed through the associated website diabetes.co.uk. There is a one-off charge of £29.99 for the full experience, but a wide range of resources can be accessed for free. Currently, according to the website, more than 377,000 people have signed up.
Created in part using data from diabetes.co.uk, which has grown to become Europe’s largest online diabetes community, and under the guidance of GP and low-carb champion Dr David Unwin, the programme is an illustration of how artificial intelligence is paving the way towards tailor-made complementary health solutions. Yet its beginnings were humble, starting as “a bit of a student hobby” for “self-confessed data geek” Arjun Panesar.
A family problem
It may now have members from as far afield as India, Australia, and Nepal, but diabetes.co.uk was initially created only because Panesar wanted to help his grandfather.
