If
I asked you if you've ever heard of diabetes, you'd probably
say, "Duh. Come on Sherry, get with it."
But
if I asked you EXACTLY what diabetes is, and more importantly, what causes
or contributes to it, you might not be so smug.
That's
why diabetes is something you MUST know about. Because currently about 25
million people in the US have it, and health experts estimate that by the
year 2050, as many as 1 in 3 people could have it. And it's not fun.
Chances
are excellent that if you don't know enough about it, that 1 in 3 could
include YOU.
If
it's poorly controlled (or worse yet, undiagnosed), diabetes can lead to
heart disease, kidney disease, cancer, high blood pressure, gangrenous
infections (that may require amputation) blindness, strokes and even death.
But
you can easily lower your risk for diabetes by 10X or more with a few
simple tweaks. Hardly anyone should get diabetes if you're responsible at
all with your body.
Here's
what you must know about diabetes, along with some surprising facts about
what may be causing it and what you can do about it:
In a perfect world
In
a normal, healthy body, when food is eaten and broken down, glucose (our
main source of fuel) enters the bloodstream. That sounds the alarm for the
pancreas to secrete the hormone insulin, which tells your body's cells to
absorb and use the glucose. That way, your body has the fuel it needs and
the level of sugar in your blood is regulated.
When
there's something wrong with this happy picture, you end up with diabetes.
Diabetes--Type I vs. Type II
Diabetes
is a degenerative disease that stems from either:
1- Not having enough insulin -
Type I
This
is where the pancreas can't make insulin and it's also known as Type I
diabetes. It usually appears in childhood but can also appear in adults if
the pancreas is damaged due to injury or disease.
2- Insulin resistance - Type II
This
is a condition where your body produces insulin but doesn't use it
properly. Instead your cells don't respond like they should -- they
"ignore" the insulin and close the door on the glucose. As a
result, your body needs to produce MORE insulin to "force"
glucose to enter your cells.
Your
pancreas gets stressed trying to keep up with this increased need for
insulin, and eventually it can't. Then excess glucose builds up in your
bloodstream, and you are looking at Type II diabetes.
Type
II diabetes is FAR more common -- 90% of diabetics are Type II vs. only 10%
being Type I.
So what causes or
contributes to diabetes?
Here
are well-known and other not-so-well-known factors behind diabetes:
1) Eating processed foods and
refined carbohydrates
This
packs on the pounds and creates a vicious cycle in your body that begs for
diabetes.
Here's
what's happening:
Most
nutrient-poor processed foods and refined carbohydrates (sugars, white
flour, white rice and all products made with them), basically turn to sugar
(glucose) in your body.
If
your body burns up the glucose for energy, that's fine. But the problem
arises when there is SO much excess glucose over and above what you need
for daily fuel.
Excess
glucose not used by your body is stored as...
FAT.
And
most people are eating WAY too many processed, refined foods day in and day
out, and packing on the fat as a result.
Plus,
you're tempting fate with your pancreas. That carb addiction is a great way
to stress your pancreas because it has to operate in overdrive to keep up
with your insulin needs.
Eventually
it either can't keep up, or your cells start becoming resistant to the
insulin...
Diabetes
in the making.
2) Unbalanced estrogen
Having
excess estrogen is a contributing factor in the development of diabetes.
This explains why menopausal women have get diabetes fives times as often
as men, since estrogen becomes more dominant during menopause.
3) The use of prednisone
(synthetic cortisone)
Elevated
cortisol commonly goes hand in hand with elevated blood sugar.
4) Enzyme deficiencies
Diabetics
are commonly deficient in lipase (the enzyme that digests fats) which is
needed for the metabolism of insulin and for the best
"acceptance" of the glucose by your cells.
Insulin
metabolism can be hampered or markedly reduced depending on the amount of
undigested fat you have floating around in your blood. So clearly, it's
essential to have the enzymes you need to properly digest fats.
What you can do
There
are two very effective measures you can take to avoid stressing your
pancreas and encourage your body to properly metabolize insulin and glucose:
1. Eat fewer processed foods
and refined carbs
If
you own the Great Taste
No Pain health system, you'll learn some delicious ways to enjoy REAL
foods -- whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats and fish
that move you far away from diabetes, not closer. And the meals are
all easily digested, so you get the nutrients from your foods, instead of
having them destroyed with overproduction of acid and poor digestion.
These
are foods that are nutrient-dense and don't result in the harmful onslaught
of sugar in your body like processed and refined foods. That means less
excess glucose to turn to fat, and less likelihood of insulin resistance
and the resulting type II diabetes.
And
ladies, better digestion also means that excess estrogen can be properly
eliminated with your bowel movements, instead of being reabsorbed and
contributing to diabetes like I mentioned in #2) above.
Plus,
when you do what I tell you to do in GTNP, you feel fuller
longer, so you'll eat less. That can mean a smaller number on the scale
too--how's THAT sound to help you with those New Year's resolutions?
2. Give your enzymes a boost
Unfortunately,
your body doesn't give you a nudge and say, "Hey, you're deficient
in enzymes."
Instead
it gives you subtle hints -- like poor digestion, gas, bloating, acid
reflux and...
Diabetes.
That's
right. If your body doesn't have the enzymes it needs to properly break
down fats (and many people with a diet rich in fats and/or who have lost
their gallbladder are prime candidates), you are reducing your body's
ability to respond to insulin.
A
recipe for diabetes.
That's
why it's essential to eat lots of enzyme-containing foods like fresh fruits
and vegetables.
And
supplement with
a high-quality enzyme supplement like Digestizol Max.
Digestizol Max
is a potent, effective blend of 14
plant-derived enzymes that will get to work immediately and help your body
break down proteins, carbs and fats like it should.
When
your digestion is accomplished efficiently, you can feel the difference
from head to toe:
- Your body can eliminate
wastes and toxins better, so you have less overall inflammation and fewer
aches and pains.
- Excess weight comes off more
easily.
- You have easy, regular,
normal bowel movements -- no more grunting or "Hershey Squirts."
- Less gas, bloating and
flatulence.
And:
You become a less attractive candidate for diabetes.
If
you're carrying excess weight and/or have diabetes in your family history,
it's crucial that you do all you can to prevent this disease from striking
you.
It
can cost you a limb, your sight or even your life.
Your
chances of being a diabetic could become as high as 1 in 3.
Don't
let that happen to you. Beat the statistics.
Let
the power of Great
Taste No Pain and Digestizol Max
help keep YOU healthy and diabetes-free into your golden years and
beyond.
To
your health,

PPS: Margaret has IBS relief
and is down 7 pounds, plus her husband's blood sugar is looking good!:
Sherry:
Before I started your Great Taste No Pain plan I was in constant fear of
leaving the house, not knowing how My IBS was going to act that day. Some
days I stayed on the toilet more than off, with the worse diarrhea.
Sometimes the abdominal pain
was so bad I was wishing I had my gallbladder back--the pain and symptoms
where the same as I had before it was removed because of gallstones.
One time it was so bad I
called 911 to get myself to the hospital for treatment. After that trip I
was put on Prilosec 80 mg a day--this just added to the diarrhea I already
had! It was awful; I can't print the experience that I had here on this
page!
I was then given a
prescription drug that was to take care of the diarrhea. After the 3rd day
an experience I had while out shopping was so bad that I felt that
something else had to be done for me.
I got on the Internet and
found your Great Taste No Pain
plan. I have been on this now
for about 3 weeks, still learning how to combine foods. I went to the
doctor and found I had Iost 7 lbs, and the DR wanted to see my new plan. He
said he needed to be on it himself!
Thank you for this great plan
that is easy to stay on and NEVER be hungry. Also my husband is a diabetic,
and I have been feeding him the same way. His blood sugar readings have
taken a drastic change for the better!
