I've just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes

Drink heaps of beer and lots of sweet stuff and you will be cured in no time.

Two words - colloidal silver.

Type 2 diabetes is reversible fortunately.

Eliminate all sugar and grains from your diet immediately. Avoid vegetable oils, super bad. Stay a million miles away from corn syrup, processed and refined foods.

Eat a high fat diet consisting of meat, organ meats, fish, eggs, butter, and you will see quick improvements.

Welcome to the club.

You can beat this. You will get a lot of advice, but only you can ultimately make the decision to change your life. You probably know what you need to do. Do it.

Cut out soda pop and all bottled sweet drinks. Make Sun Tea, add no sugar, just lemon if you want.Cut out all junk food, switch to chicken, and add more veggies to your diet. You got to lose some weight. Chances are, if you lose the weight and change your diet, you might not be diabetic anymore.

All you need is to listen to Jason Fung on youtube. Saved my life.

Nelly?

On a SUNDAY?

One meal a day will fix you right up, especially with low or zero carbs.

Stop eating PEZ

Two words. Keto Diet.

I'm currently 56yrs old(male) and I've beat my "Diabetes"

About 12 years ago I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes when I went in to have my Gallbladder out.

I had a fasting Blood Glucose Level of 350(normal is 80-100) and previous blood work the week before had it at 400 !

I was put on the standard meds, Metformin(2000mg), Lisinopril(Blood Pressure) and Simvastatin(Cholesterol) ....and told to follow the American Diabetes Association Diet.

Up till that point I had always been "healthy", well at least I thought I was...In reality this had been building for years due to poor eating habits(junk food)

So, like most, I started to try and improve my diet and exercise. It was/has been a struggle to say the least...I'll explain:

1. Following the ADA diet didn't work, I'd eat as they say and my BGL would still rise(greatly at times)...After almost a year of that with NO improvement I quit, and switched to Adkins

2. The Adkins diet offered weight loss and an improved BGL but I was still considered "Diabetic" by medical standards. and I kept craving sugar and salt constantly and was hungry most times.

Personal info: I'm 5'7" and have ranged from 145lb at 18yrs to 216lb at my heaviest...when I started "beating diabetes" I was 206lb

As I said, the Adkins diet offered benefits but I stayed hungry.

I've spent countless hours "sweating" doing Aerobics and lifting weights but at 3mo, 6mo etc...with no real results so I always gave up.


So fast forward to mid July 2019...woke up one morning and even though I was once again trying to "eat right" my BGL was 140, this was with the addition of Glipizide(another diabetes med) to the Metformin.

I decided to look for help again.....

I found it !

Dr. Sten Ekberg:
[link to www.youtube.com (secure)]

Just watching his explanation(s) of how human physiology worked and how to exercise properly I've been able to drop to 180lb(as of this morning) and have a 84 BGL(WITHOUT ANY MEDS !!)

So here's my current Diet and Exercise program

*Diet:
NO/LOW Carbohydrates
NO Bread
NO Pasta
NO Rice
NO Potatoes

I read labels and strive to keep Carbs at 30 grams or below if possible
NOTHING passes my lips that has more that 1 gram of Sugar(But I strive to avoid Sugar at all cost)

I eat Meats(Chicken, Beef, Pork, Fish) and ignore "No Fat/Low Fat" foods/claims....The MORE Fat the better !!!

Also Salad and other Veggies(check nutritional info and avoid the high carb and sugar ones)

I use liquid Stevia in my Coffee, and liquid only(the packets/powders pose a problem I'll cover later)

I do keep several "Sugarless" hard candies available but only have one every 2 days or so

*note on the "Bad fours"
After you get your body back to some symblance of "healthy" then you can have Pasta, Rice every so often(once every two weeks at first, more as you "Heal")

Oh HELL that dreaded word "Exercise"

You have to get off the couch and out of the recliner !!!!

Look at Dr. Ekberg's vid(YouTube) on Exercise for explanation

You'll need a Heart rate monitor for best results

Once you determine your HR and find the 60% number(Just google Heart Rate for Exercise formula) to calculate your rate...Mine is currently 130bpm....Don't exercise above the 60% bpm...doing so just negates any weight loss gains....See the vid, Ekberg explains why .

So for me:
60mins of walking/fast walking to reach and hold the 130bpm goal

3 mins total(2 to 3 times a week) of the HIIT(High Intensity Interval Training) explained in Dr. Ekberg's vid

and that's it...NO WEIGHTS At this time(Will come later)


So that's it...You can do it !!! but only if you really set your mind to it

Explanation on "Alternative Sweeteners"

Aspartame
Saccharin
Sucralose(Splenda)

ARE ALL POISON .

Now, the Powdered "revelation"

These sweeteners(including Stevia) are very potent for their weight.
You would not be able to stand drinking anything(Cup of Coffee) "sweetened" with a Full pack of "powdered" stuff, they're just too potent ...The Mfgs have to "Cut it" with something "else"

most times that "else" is, believe it or not, Glucose !!!

So the FDA allows a Manufacture to call their product a "Artificial Sweetener" even though it actually contains "Sugar"(Glucose)

Liquid* Stevia is the only thing I've found that's safe ...

*they do offer some tiny "pill" size tablets for travel and such...just read the label and avoid any with "extras" like Maltodextrin(Which I'll cover in a sec)

Maltodextrin ...Awww heaven forbid this abomination !!!



Maltodextrin:

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide that is used as a food additive. It is produced from starch by partial hydrolysis and is usually found as a white hygroscopic spray-dried powder. Maltodextrin is easily digestible, being absorbed as rapidly as glucose and may be either moderately sweet or almost flavorless (depending on the degree of polymerisation).

It is commonly used for the production of soft drinks and candy. It can also be found as an ingredient in a variety of other processed foods.



Almost ALL of those 'Diet' / "Low Fat" / Diabetic / "Sugar Free" .. "Foods" you see in the stores contain Maltodextrin...Which most people's bodies treat and react to as "SUGAR"


STAY AWAY from Maltodextrin

Thank you so much for your response. This is exactly what I was looking for.

TYPE 2 DIABETES IS A SCAM!

Cannabis will cure you in 5 weeks.

You're welcome

Another thing that has really helped is the intermittent fasting ...once I went to a low carb/high fat/protein diet all my 'constant hunger' went away ....I now eat at 11/11:30/12pm and again at 4pm and then nothing but water/coffee(sometimes) till the next day

Look up Dr. Ekberg and Dr. Eric Berg(both on youtube) on the Keto diet/Fasting and exercise ...Its really life changing !!

Good luck to you

Are you overweight, OP?

You can cur3 it with Keto. Good luck

Thanks for taking the time to write all that information, however, everyone is different, physiologically speaking. What works for some, doesn't work for others. The basic rock bottom way to beat diabetes 2 is to only eat as much as you are going to burn, on top of the 1,000-2,000 calories we burn naturally each day. I started with a 300 calorie a day diet for a month and walked as much as I could, each night, on a treadmill. I dropped from 365 lbs, my heaviest, to 180 lbs. IN 6 MONTHS! My diabetes 2 was GONESVILLE!!! I felt great, I finally got a sex life (which was completely missing from my life, because I was a fat slob!)

If you follow what I tell you, you will lose the weight and the diabetes.

Good Luck,

God Bless!

I did exactly this in January when I was diagnosed with type 2. Lost 109 pounds in seven months and lowered my a1c from 7.9 to 4.8 in 90 days. You can do it. Commit to it and don’t stop

Fasting has been proven to cure diabetes.

"British researchers develop “cure” for Type 2 diabetes: starve yourself"

And then once you cure it.... go on a NO FAT vegan diet.

The way this reads came out strange I should clarify

I only eat twice a day, once sometime between 11am and noon and once at 4pm

sorry for any confusion .

too add: one of the MOST IMPORTANT things is NO SNACKING between meals even if you stay with three meals a day !!!

Yeah... Body fat causes diabetes.


Lose weight.

When I was on a no fat vegan diet I lost loads of weight. Still on that diet.

Very slim now.

Wow. Congrats!
