Important advice for HCPs joining the Defeat Diabetes Partner Program
The Medical Board’s Code of Conduct emphasises that a doctor’s primary duty is to a patient, and this cannot be compromised by financial conflicts of interest. Good practice is stated to involve acting in your patient’s best interests when providing a referral and: “Not allowing any financial or commercial interest in a hospital, other healthcare organisation, or company providing healthcare services or products to adversely affect the way in which you treat patients. When you... have such an interest and that interest could be perceived to influence the care you provide, you must inform your patient.”
We recommend you inform patients of any financial interest you have in providing referrals to Defeat Diabetes. Ensure patients are informed about their choices for management of their condition, so there is no suggestion that objectivity in giving clinical advice to patients is compromised by your financial interest. The discussion of treatment pathways should be reflected in the patient record.
AMA Guidelines reinforce that where doctors are referring patients to a service in which they have a financial interest, this must be disclosed to patients and you should address questions patients may have about the financial interest to ensure they do not consider a conflict exists.
Together, we can Defeat Diabetes

Frequently Asked Questions
The Defeat Diabetes Program focuses on a low carb lifestyle, exercise and sleep as the key to preventing and reversing type 2 diabetes and a range of health conditions.
The program is grounded in the latest nutritional and metabolic science. Research shows when you remove carbohydrates, which are high in glucose, you reduce your blood glucose. This lowering of blood glucose brings pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes under control and into remission.
Delivered via website and the Defeat Diabetes mobile app (Apple iOS and Android), the program provides a practical and easy way to reduce your blood glucose levels. You’ll have access to 13 structured lessons featuring videos, masterclasses that provide a deeper dive into key topics, cooking demonstrations, affordable, simple and delicious recipes, resource sheets and a private Defeat Diabetes Facebook community to share support, advice and inspiration.
There is now a significant body of research that shows a low carb, healthy fat and protein approach can have a significant impact on those with type 2 diabetes.
The Defeat Diabetes way of eating can result in better glycaemic control, reduced medication use, weight loss and, in many cases, remission of type 2 diabetes.
Online programs similar to Defeat Diabetes have been established for several years in both the UK and the USA. The UK program has seen more than 450,000 people undertake a low carb program, with a study finding over a quarter of participants reduced their HbA1c to below the diabetes threshold, and 40% reduced their diabetes medications. In the USA, a similar remote care model has also proven to be successful, with 50% of participants in putting their diabetes into remission.
Our recent member survey showed that after just three months on the Defeat Diabetes program, 63 per cent of those with type 2 diabetes returned their blood sugars to pre-diabetic range and all others reported significant decreases in blood glucose levels.
The Defeat Diabetes Partner Program (DDPP) provides tools for healthcare professionals (including GPs, diabetes educators and allied health professionals) to teach patients how a low carb approach can manage type 2 diabetes and, in many cases, help patients achieve remission. The DDPP is free to join.
Some patients desire further support when embarking on a low carb lifestyle under the supervision of their healthcare professional. In this case, the Defeat Diabetes Program, books and community can be helpful resources, acting as a bridge between the practical application of therapeutic carbohydrate restriction and the medical management of a patient.
