Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

Hello Starter Story! It is such a pleasure to do this interview! I’m Brent Bottelsen, one of the Partners in Type2Diet.

Type2Diet is a first-of-its-kind Meal Replacement company specifically focused on helping people beat their diabetes and pre-diabetes. We never thought we would be in the diabetes business, but when we learned how many people are suffering from diabetes, we knew we needed to do something to help this global epidemic.

To give an idea of the staggering numbers, as of 2017, 34.2 million people in the United States have diabetes (10.5% of the US population), and 88 million people aged 28 and older have prediabetes. This is 34.5% of the adult US population. Today, we have helped thousands of people across the country lower their blood sugar, increase their energy, and put their diabetes in check.
