DIABETES (ADULT TYPE II)
Natural Support To Prevent And Reverse This Condition
Diabetes Mellitus is a condition of abnormally high blood sugar (above
126mg/dl) on two separate occasions. Type I diabetes is caused by a
destruction of pancreatic cells that produce insulin. It is a more
serious condition, and more difficult to control, than type II. Type
II diabetes is related to Western diet and lifestyle and can almost
always be controlled by diet and lifestyle changes alone.
Uncontrolled diabetes (blood sugars that
continue to go above the normal 120mg/dl) result in a four-fold
increased risk of atherosclerotic heart disease and a five-fold
increased risk of stroke. Diabetes also increases the risk of nerve
damage leading to eye disease, peripheral neuropathy (nerve disorder),
increased risk of infection, and compromised circulation sometimes
resulting in gangrene.
DIET AND LIFESTYLE RECOMMENDATIONS
- Diet: work with an
alternative medicine physician to
discover optimal diet. High carbohydrate diets are often prescribed
for diabetics, but low carbohydrate diets (The Super Fast Diet) work much
better for most type II diabetics. Diet alone will often cure
diabetes.
- Maintain a normal weight. Overweight
makes the body resistant to its own insulin.
-
Exercise regularly. Exercise
improves the body’s response to insulin, decreases blood sugar
levels, normalizes weight and improves circulation.
- Drink 64 ounces of pure water daily.

DR. MYATT’S COMMENT
Diabetes leads to serious health complications. All of the problems
associated with aging—-impaired circulation, decreases of hearing and
eyesight, and heart disease are accelerated in uncontrolled diabetes.
Fortunately, Type II diabetes is almost always controllable through
diet, lifestyle, and corrective nutrients and herbs. Insulin is
sometimes but rarely necessary and may be preferable to other
glucose-lowering drugs. It is important to keep blood sugar levels
within a normal range, thus avoiding the multiple health risks and
premature aging that diabetes causes.
I find that well over 90% of Type II diabetic patients can achieve
normal-range glucose control by following
The Super Fast Diet and the
above-listed primary support measures. If blood sugars are not
dramatically improved (and often completely corrected!) after three
months on this program, consult with an
alternative medicine physician who can help you find the best diet
and supplement program. I am available for consultation by telephone
and I have an excellent success rate with type II diabetic patients.
