Total Cure For Diabetes Rejected By Doctors

This is another “I Told ‘Em!” Something I’ve been saying for decades and now science is beginning to prove I was right all along!

For nearly 40 years I’ve been asking why diabetics are given “lines” of carbohydrate and told to eat it and then take their insulin to reduce it!  If diabetes is a disease which cannot safely handle carbs, why is God’s name tell patients to eat the stuff? It has never made sense. I’ve cured thousands of diabetics by simply saying “Do not eat carbohydrates.” A great many of them came off insulin altogether.

Now a new study has shown that a very low-calorie diet of 600 calories a day totally reverses type 2 diabetes [71st Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association, San Diego, June 24-28, 2011.Diabetologia. published online June 24, 2011.]

Eleven people who had been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes within the past four years slashed their calories for eight weeks, sticking to liquid diet drinks and non-starchy vegetables.

After one week on the diet, participants' fasting blood sugar levels were no longer elevated.

MRI scans showed that the fat levels in the pancreas fell from around 8% -- considered high -- to a normal 6%.

After eight weeks on the diet, their bodies were once again making sufficient insulin, essentially reversing their diabetes.

Three months after going off the diet, seven were free of diabetes. That’s about a 70% cure rate. Brilliant!

So what is the doctor’s response who carried out this study? Don’t do it! Study head Roy Taylor, MD, director of the Newcastle Magnetic Resonance Centre at Newcastle University in England said they were not recommending calorie restriction as a cure for diabetes.

"We have to figure out a more practical way for people to get these results -- that is, to get fat out of pancreas and keep it out," Taylor said.

Diabetes is one of the top three killers in the Western world. It’s tragic because it is such an easy disease to treat: just eat differently!

But over and over patients are told to eat their “lines” and take insulin and/or drugs.

It’s Not Just About Calories

The problem with eating “lines”, or any carbohydrate food, is that it is typically grains, corn derivatives or soy. These are not natural foods for Man, despite all the hype. We can’t metabolize them properly. Diabetes is the almost inevitable result.

 We need meat, lots of lovely red, delicious meat. It’s Man’s natural food (sorry vegetarians). Calories which come from animal sources do not have the negatives of grains and soy.

 Forget all the nonsensical propaganda about red meat. I’ve never seen ANY study that shows red meat is bad for us. Only studies which investigated red meat and synthetic manufactured meats combined! That’s silly because the disgusting filth that is offal meat (in sausages, burgers, spam etc) is not healthy. But it takes down red meat in the results, which is very health.

 Once this story got born and became “science”, it’s now hard to dislodge. But if you look at our historical diet, Man ate 60% of his calories as red meat. In those days, from plentiful skeletal evidence, we know that Cro-Magnon Man was superbly healthy and tall. There was no evidence of skeletal disease, such as arthritis. Deformities only appeared when we over hunted, populations expanded and we start to eat more vegetables!

 It got rapidly worse when we became farmers, instead of hunters, and began to consume grains.

 In modern times and due to marketing propaganda, we have been told to eat more grains. Whole grains are supposed to be “good for us”. Oh yeah? Well, why is it that the population has moved into an obscene degree of obesity? Because grains rare wrong for us!

 Diabetes has rapidly risen to be a top-3 killer and may well move higher. Carbohydrates are ruinous. Period.

 Dire Need Of Nutrients

 There are two essential substances that protect us from high insulin problems. The most famous is chromium. We need about 400 mcg a day. It is a co-factor of insulin and helps keep diabetes at bay.

 Excess insulin levels lead, among other things, to low energy levels, more body fat, cravings for sweet foods, and raised cholesterol.¹

 What is the richest natural source of chromium? Red meat, especially beef. So the ranting against red meats is not only off-target but is actually killing citizens, by denying them adequate healthy chromium.

 Incidentally, red wine too is a surprising good source of chromium, which is probably one reason for the French paradox and why French women are famously skinny.

 Another vital and little-known nutrient is vitamin K2 (K1 is no good). It too helps control insulin metabolism and balance our blood sugar.²  

You can get vitamin K2 from leafy green vegetables. But it occurs most in two foods you are told are “bad for us”: beef and eggs. We need 50- 100 mcg a day, so take a supplement with those levels. 

K2, incidentally, protects against calcification of the arteries. It also strengthens bones and improves memory function. A 2008 study published by the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) has revealed that increased intake of vitamin K2 may reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 35 percent.³  

This is all good news for us, as we grow older!
