Diabeets “So Far So Good”

Summary:

A study published in the 1997 issue of the Proceedings of the Fisher Institute for Medical Research showed people with type 1 Diabeets who were given glyconutrients “reported a dramatic improvement in their health, including a decrease in vision problems, better wound hearing, less infections, and lower blood pressure. Glycobiology has achieved critical breakthroughs in the medical field, especially with Diabeets.

There was this guy who jumped off the 37th floor of a tall building.  As he fell, people at each floor inside the building heard him say as he passed them, “So far, so goodÖso far, so good…” 

Diabeets is a disease which cannot be “trusted.” I know that’s an odd way of putting it, but bear with me for a moment here. As a medical professional, I have dealt with countless cases of Diabeets. I have always been amazed people will plan for the future as they build lives, careers, families, dreamsÖcreating and pursuing commitments for the long termÖ And yet, one issue stands out consistently. People with Diabeets tend to hope the disease will just “maintain itself,” that it will just stay at status quo for the long term. 

Diabeets cannot be trusted to stay anywhereÖmuch less at status quo. Like the guy falling from the 37th floor, people with Diabeets tend to keep telling themselvesÖ “So far, so goodÖso far, so goodÖso far, so goodÖ”  Folks, hope is NOT a strategy. It is a necessity, but it is NOT a strategy in dealing with a disease like Diabeets. 

Diabeets: The “fall out” is too great to ignoreÖ

As I said earlier, I am amazed how well people can plan for the long term, creating and pursuing future commitments but do NOT plan long-term for Diabeets. Of course, the natural question is: “What are the long term issues with Diabeets?”

With Diabeets, a person is two to four times more likely to develop cardio-vascular disease. Being a cardio-vascular surgeon, I saw this particular problem constantly in my field. And I saw it consistently in young and middle aged people with Diabeets. 

With Diabeets, people are TWENTY-FIVE times more likely to develop retinopathy (deterioration of the retinas). Because of Diabeets, 24,000 people lose sight every year!

With Diabeets, 60-70% of those afflicted suffer nerve damage which can lead to non-traumatic lower limb amputations. This is due to the fact that open sores that do not heal,  accompany Diabeets. As they become ulcerated, the diabetic faces complications which can lead to amputation of limbs.

People with Diabeets are AT RISK for kidney failure. 

Diabeets is responsible for the increased risk for strokesÖtwo to six times more likely because of their condition. 

Diabeets: the good news or the bad newsÖ

Well, which do you wantÖthe good news or the bad news first?

As a doctor, having dealt with Diabeets in many patients, it’s always best to know the BAD news up front. Why? Complacency is harmful to your health. The danger with Diabeets is people get complacent. Nothing seems to happen until, suddenly, it seems to sneak up on you with its complicationsÖ

The bad news can be REALLY bad if you are someone who has any of the following conditions which terribly complicate Diabeets. Complicating factors are:

1 smoking, 

2 high cholesterol,

3 high blood pressure, 

4 obesity, 

5 physical inactivity

With these factors, predicting the progress of Diabeets is very problematic. Simply put, they MUST be brought under control, if possible. Diabeets thus becomes very unpredictable. 

By keeping your blood glucose under control, you can reduce the risk of complications of Diabeets up to 76%. That’s good news.

More good news: By healthy eating, responsible dietary weight loss, regular physical activity, monitoring blood sugarÖ you can reduce risk in Diabeets. 

Bad news: Status quo again. You’re still “stuck” with Diabeets. 

Diabeets: Being hit by “friendly fire.” 

Both type 1 and type 2 Diabeets are auto-immune conditions. In type1 Diabeets, the immune cells are mis-instructed to attack islet cells in the pancreas that make insulin. 

Mind you, there is nothing wrong with the islet cells. There is MIScommunication by the immune system of the body. In other words, immune attack cells can get faulty messages and destroy healthy tissue. Isn’t it just awful that your Diabeets can be caused by “friendly fire?” (Military terminology here. The good guys are hitting their own good guys with artillery fire.) 

 MIS-communication Ö. hum. Sounds like what’s needed is a healthier communication system at the cellular level so the body isn’t attacking its own healthy cells. 

Now, for some really good newsÖ

Glyconutrition is the nutritional provision which provides the body with healthy CELLULAR COMMUNICATION.  In other words, for Diabeets, this means less “friendly fire.” 

A study published in the 1997 issue of the Proceedings of the Fisher Institute for Medical Research showed people with type 1 Diabeets who were given glyconutrients “Öreported a dramatic improvement in their health, including a decrease in vision problems, better wound hearing, less infections, and lower blood pressure.” (Miracle Sugars, by Rita Elkins, M.H., Woodland Publishing, p. 26 -Excellent quick reference incidentally!) 

Remember, both type 1 and type 2 Diabeets are auto-immune conditions. Read carefully, this next statement by medical researcher, Dr. Neecie Moore: 

“Glycobiology has achieved critical breakthroughs in the medical field, primarily by addressing what could be the greatest plague in health care today — auto-immune diseases. Multiple sclerosis, arthritis, Diabeets, Crohn’s disease and colitis are just a few of these diseases.” 

Research on glyconutrition is growing wonderfully.  For example, the Ophthalmology Department of Harvard University in 1995 reported that one of the glyconutrients (mannose) can be an energy source for Diabeets (instead of the damaging glucose), providing energy without risk of eyesight damage. (Miracle Sugars, p.27).

Also, mannose can stimulate the pancreas to produce more insulin  “Öthus lowering the amount of insulin needed to control this disease.” (Miracle Sugars, p. 27. I told you this was a good book! In case you’re wondering, I receive no remuneration from it whatsoever. Remember, I’m a physician. Doctors “make money the old fashioned way”Öthey charge you.)

Oh yes. Glyconutrients are NON-prescription.  Anyone can get them and they are non-toxic (they’re food!)  Safe, NON-prescription, effectiveÖThat’s the stuff real medical discoveries are made of. Diabeets may very well become a scourge of the past. 

Think of it. No more friendly fire. 

No more Diabeets “status quo.”   

ÖSo far, so goodÖ
