Insulin

All mainstream dietary information is horribly wrong. They encourage diabetic people to eat high carb, low fat but it only makes them more sick and fat. In fact YOU CAN CURE DIABETES BY DRASTICALLY REDUCING CARBOHYDRATE INTAKE.

Thread: If you want to be thin and stay thin (and avoid Metabolic Syndrome), then you have to eat high fat

check this thread and google ketogenic diet and Bernstein diabetes solution

Take care

Yep. I once cured my cat from diabetes by switching it to meat only food. For a human, the Atkins diet my do the trick.

I'm only suppose to eat less then 45 grams of carbs.:(

Need more information?
How old are you? weight? Type I or Type II?

Type I = Insulin a must.

Type II = Insulin as a last resource when all else fails.

The less known fact is that you can only eat meat and stay healthy without defiences as long as it is not overcooked, because overcooked meat doesnt prevent scurvy. Inuit people used to be totally carnivorious and they were healthy, without cardiovascular diseases and obesity.

WHATEVER !

Best to keep with your Dr. Advise I would say.

Type 2. I've been diabetic for about 5 years now. I weigh 185 give or take a few pounds in either direction. I'm 56. My Dad was a brittle diabetic. His Mom had major problems with her diabetes. The bad thing is I'm an emotional eater,stressed out big time taking care of my Mom. I noticed when we found ot about her lung cancer and other health issues is when my A1C jumped up from 7.5 up to 10.2. Stress I think is what caused it. Bah I'm feeling disgusted I guess.

Woot ! Who gave me 5 stars? Hugs to you.

Trans fat and sugar cause diabetes type 2. Don't eat them.

Take evening primrose oil and use honey for a year while trans fat leaves body. You will be cured in a year.

Take vitamin B complex and multivitamin to speed recovery.

Do not resume eating trans fat and sugar you will get diabetes again.

By the way, the diabetes drugs deplete you of B12. Without B12 you may need to have your feet removed in a few years.

Me

Sighhhhh.I want to eat something and I know I shouldn't.

Your Dr. did the right thing for sure for your situation. Still try your best with regards to diet control etc.

God bless you

Ya. I'm really going to try.Thanks for caring.

Hey Type II diabetic here...It's pretty simple actually.

Lots of fresh salad and fresh veggies
little bit of protein at each meal
eat whole grains
little bit of dairy

If you want to ask questions and learn
www.diabeticconnect.com

it was a real lifesaver for me to learn from the experiences of other Type II diabetics

brought my A1C from 10.5 down to 5.5
daily fasting blood glucose is always around 100-105 now.

Exercise makes a HUGE difference in your Blood Glucose, it's beyond belief what a little exercise can do for diabetics and humans in general.

Check out that site it will help solve the "what can I eat dilemma"

The reason you are so hungry is the trans fat makes up your cell walls and does not let nutrients into the cell.

Evening primrose will replace the trans fat in your cell walls and let the nutrients in. Takes about 3 months to stop the hungry all the time feeling.

Tryptophan and melatonin at bedtime with milk and crackers will stop the cravings and make you sleep well.

my mom start on insulin 5 years ago and she controls the insulin picks that was impossible to control with medicine.

she also adds to her diet camote and nopal everyday... natural way to manage insulin.

Thanks I will check it out.

I will have to find out what trans fat are. I probably eat tons of it.
Lol My Doctor met my Mom today and said she understood why I was stressed out all the time. It made me feel better her saying that.

Trans fat turns off your D6D enzyme which turns off your endocrine system. No hormones. Insulin is a hormone.

Evening Primrose circumvents the D6D enzyme until the trans fat leaves your body and the D6D enzyme starts working again.

A thread that also recommends this.
Thread: I have cured people of diabetes and cancer ask me a question.

google:
duodenal switch, diabetes

I know others with diabetes who have successfully eliminated the disease due to the duodenal switch.

Because of the adjustment of the anatomy, it stops the insulin issue. It isn't even about the "new eating"...it changes the way body to stop the insulin response that is screwed up...

I am not a diabetic nor expert, but you should find plenty of reading to give you hope.

Don't be hard on yourself... it's not a death sentence. it just means you need to manage your intake. Just eat right drink plenty of water and go for a walk every day.

You'll be fine... you know what the greatest lesson I've learned so far is?

Buy the biggest tupperware tub that will fit in your fridge easily, and always keep a lots of salad in there. don't buy the packaged stuff... chop up your own and make it fresh all i one big batch.

Carrots, cucumbers, green peppers, red cabbage, spinach, etc. Avoid iceberg lettuce because it turns brown quickly, use romaine instead... FYI the red cabbage acts like a magnet and keeps the lettuce from oxidizing too quickly. adding a good amount of sliced red cabbage will make a bunch of salad last 2-3 longer.

When you're hungry and going to reach for something... reach for a salad ... if it's already prepared sitting there you'll be more willing to choose the salad. If you must dress it use a vinaigrette thats mostly vinegar.

Carrots are my go-to snack. I go through 4-5 bags of carrots a month.

I really like carrots, and they are satisfying and crunchy.

very important to take the shot at the same hour everyday and to do it on the right place ....

don't worry you will feel ok don't be afrait of insulin mean while try natural way to control diabetes including to lose fat eat no bread fry's etc...
I know for a close friend that he reverse diabetics losing the 15 kilos he had of overweight in 6 months...
I know is easy for a man... but is a fact if you lose weight and eat right you can beat diabetics

Hi OP, Im Type 1 Diabetic and you will feel SO much better when you start having your Insulin. I totally understand how you feel right now, it's scary injecting something into you every single day, in my case 4 times a day. The tiredness, sickness, depression and everything else that comes with being Diabetic is hard. Don't be too hard on yourself if you give in and eat something that you probably shouldn't, we are only human, Things would be different if we'd have been born Diabetic as we wouldn't know any different, It's harder to be diagnosed later in life. I really, really struggle with it, I'll be honest, Not 1 day goes by when i don't find it hard. I feel that when i was diagnosed i lost a big part of me. I've had it for over 10 years now and I've made HUGE fuck ups with my Diabetes and I've probably significantly reduced my life span because of it.
The best advice I can give is to take each day at a time and don't be too hard on yourself. You'll get there and you'll feel lots better soon enough. Although there are side effects with Insulin and each person reacts differently to them, you should start feeling better. Take Care OP.

Thanks everyone for your words of comfort and support.

This chocolate cake I'm eating for breakfast is amazing!



Oh, sorry.

well I know my brother, that has also had high sugar (300ish) started a couple of weeks ago.

He is no longer exhausted, no longer sees blurry. I had a long talk to him about it, at first he he was fighting against it...

now he is happy he started, you will be too

Those doctors are stupid then because carbs are most easily turned to sugar.

I have a hard time believing a doctor would not know that.

there is no cure for diabeties, its a chronic disorder.

some can controll it with diet though

It's doubtful that the traditional Inuit diet was "totally carnivorous": [link to huntgatherlove.com]
