This pork stir-fry combines the savory flavors of miso and soy along with crisp vegetables.
After a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes Journalist Neil Barsky initially followed his doctors advice and began insulin injections. He also did his own research and found a community already aware of the root of the problem. After cutting out the carbs, he dropped his A1C, got off medications, and now considers himself cured.
Use ½ bodyweight on the cleans.

Preparation
In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste (1 Tbsp) and soy sauce (1 Tbsp) until well combined. Set aside.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp of sesame oil. Once the oil is hot, add the sliced pork tenderloin (4 oz.) Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the pork is nearly cooked through. Add the diced red peppers (½ cup) to the wok and stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until they start to soften. Add the snow peas (1 oz) and stir-fry for another minute, keeping them crisp-tender.
Pour the miso-soy sauce mixture over the pork and vegetables. Stir to coat everything evenly and cook for another minute to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from heat and drizzle with the remaining ½ tsp of sesame oil and serve hot.
“To his credit, when my doctor saw my blood sugar numbers, he took me off all medication. “You don’t need me any more,” he said. But he also evinced a shocking lack of curiosity about what I did to lower my A1C so dramatically. I now realize my doctor was making an honest attempt to follow the guidelines issued by the American Diabetes Association. I didn’t ask him if he was aware that the top five funders of the ADA are the pharmaceutical companies Abbott, AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly and Co, Novo Nordisk and Regeneron.”
