In November 2021, Robert Jones of Oakland, Calif., went to the emergency room. He thought his right big toe was infected, and he had a fever. He didn’t think too much of it, figuring they would give him some pills and send him home. But that’s not what happened. He was diagnosed with diabetes, and complications from the disease meant his toe needed to be amputated. “I’ll never forget the feeling when the doctor looked over and said, ‘Well, Mr. Jones, I don’t know if we can save the toe.
He includes foods high in probiotics, like kimchi and sauerkraut, to rebuild his healthy gut bacteria. That’s because he needed antibiotics after his toe was infected, and that led to a gastrointestinal infection that can still flare up. He also practiced intermittent fasting, generally eating between 2 and 7 p.m. and fasting for 24 hours one day a week. “A lot of people say not to do that, but I have to do what works best for me,” he says.
