Diabetics...Save Your Feet...No More Amputations...One Simple Cure

reply to post by Zaphod


I watched a documentary a while ago about a town that had a higher than usual rate of diabetes. They cut out all grains, because as they're digesting, most of them turn to sugar. They even replaced rice and noodles with cauliflower. Everyone lost a lot of weight, and the type 2 diabetics living there were able to go off their meds.

If someone is to cut all grains, they must eat lots of vegies for the fiber.

a ketogenic diet is helpful to teach the body to use fat for sugar rather than carbs.

atkins is kind of a variation but the people who just eat a bunch of red mat all the time for the protein and fat are doing themselves harm... so you are absolutely right about vegetables being important for fiber, nutrients and other types of protein than just the meats.

not only does it create blood sugar but there are additional problems with grains... not that they are not good for many people, but they can have problems like all food. that's why it's good to know these things because consistencies change and it's good to keep up with what is going on in your body because you can't spend your whole life at the doctor.

I was about to say that changing your diet to a more veggie dense diet would help out more too. It's more long term, gets rid of diabetes, and the toxins will transported through the bodily waste like intended, and not through the skin.

Still, it's some useful info.

you can actually put the charcoal in a bath with you (a cup of it i think) and that will draw a lot of toxins out for you. you will be black afterwards though

here is a link to buy it, or you can make it yourself

The cure is even simpler than that ... its called diet and excercise! OMG!

I am a sufferer of type 2 diabetes and am only slightly overweight. I also know some quite thin type 2 diabetics.

I have been trying to loose weight for years, the problem is that if I don't eat enough carbohydrates, my blood sugar levels plummet, I have a hypo and can even black out. Definitely not good, who knows what other damage that is doing, too!

After every hypo I have massive migraines too.

All those who say weight loss is a cure for diabetes are provably wrong (in the case of my skeletally thin type 2 friends) and have no experience with the disease.

Diet & exercise can help reduce the symptoms but is not a cure. Wish it was.

Would you like to tell us what the cure is. Whats the point in saying that there is a cure for it but not relating wat it is - not very smart.

Sorry, I don't know exactly what chemical it is...it's just my personal belief that there is one in existence that is being suppressed by big pharma.

Plus there is the BCG vaccine that has been very promising in curing diabetics. It's in its third phase of testing I think, and from what I hear it's been quite successful. It hasn't received any funding from the American Diabetes Association, probably because they are their to milk diabetics for all they're worth.

Soaking feet and body in a Hydrogen Peroxide solution helps too. Adds oxygen to the blood.
Here is some further info:
"Just recently, a drug trial for a Type 2 diabetes drug was stopped because of risk of stroke.

www.sciencedaily.com...

Perhaps here we can shed some light on why: one popular drug - Metformin - for Type 2 diabetes actually works by stressing the body and ACTIVATING AMPK. The researchers ASSUMED by using up the available glucose lying around it would cure both obesity AND insulin resistance. Here at MSGTruth, we believe that the Type 2 diabetes drugs that act this way actually CAUSE insulin resistance and stroke risk:
snip........
CoQ10 is being given to heart patients right now. CoQ10 deficiency actually INHIBITS AMPK. Why are we giving ANYONE drugs that ACTIVATE AMPK and stress the body on purpose? So we can give them expensive glutamate blockers and CoQ10 later?"

I think only type 2 diabetes is curable. Exercise and weight loss (proper lifestyle diet) will cure it completely.

Type 1, the kind that people get when they're otherwise healthy children, is different. I've known people with the type 1, and they exercised religiously, and ate properly, and looked great (totally fit with tiny waistlines), but were incurable, only treatable.

When I say Diabetes, I'm talking about type 1, the much more serious kind. Type II really shouldn't even be called Diabetes. They are completely different ballparks.
I believe a cure for type I already exists.

Correct 600 calories a day for 6 weeks has been shown to be extremely effective in curing type 2. Literally the insulin ducts get clogged up with fat deposits. The low calorie diet help remove these deposists and return normal insulin flow.

You never cure diabetes once you have it. (only perinatal diabetes is "cure-able" by the mother giving birth )
You are only controlling it with diet. that will only last so long until your body can no longer make enough insulin at that lower body weight.

You can control it with diet or medication or a combination of both

Then you also have people out there that have type 1.5 diabetes or Latent Autoimmune Diabetes of Adults
many of these are typed as type 2 till the doctors find the type 2 treatments do not work.

Alzheimer's may be a type 3 diabetes.

Are you suggesting we wrap out heads in charcoal.

But according to a recent study, fruit and vegetable fiber intake isn't associated with a decreased risk in colorectal cancer, which is the biggest thing that fiber is "supposed" to do.

Those diets also cause depression and other side effects of consuming a starvation diet. Not to mention, upon returning to a "normal" caloric intake, the diabetes returns rather quickly.

I often wonder why so many amputations have to take place and why no one is doing anything to prevent them and why so few solutions are available.

I'll tell you why. It's because A) Dietetics, endocrinologists and other health authorities are wrongfully afraid of fat, which leads to a high-carbohydrate diet. And high-carb diets are not healthy for diabetics and B) Health authorities believe obesity leads to insulin resistance and, subsequently, Type II Diabetes. And since they, once again, misunderstand obesity, they prescribe a low-calorie/low-fat diet and exercise to cure the obesity which, in their minds, should effectively relieve diabetic symptoms (peripheral, or systemic, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia).

It comes down to the condemnation of fat and the misunderstanding of the biochemistry involved in obesity, and diabetes really.

Grains are heavily pushed, as well, to diabetics as being a healthy carbohydrate when, in fact, it spikes blood sugar longer--granted not higher--than other non-grain carbs (starch, white-bread, etc.). Then, of course, the role of wheat gluten and, more importantly, grain lectins are simply disregarded. They're essentially poison, mind you.

I could keep going if you'd like...

I'd like to hear more of what you say.

I tried the Atkins type diet for a while and found myself feeling tired and unwell most of the time.

My sugars never really returned to "normal" (4-7 mmol/L range) and I had to continue with my meds & insulin to keep things in check, so I decided against continuing with the diet.

Atkins is a great diet to a point but NEVER should be used by a diabetic on insulin.
as a EMT i have had to transport a number of the people that have tried this.

You can go into fatal ketoacidosis(diabetic ketoacidosis+ atkins ketoacidosis) or insulin shock.

This thread is beginning to get life treating post if diabetics try some things posted here.
Diabetics should always check with there doctors before trying anything posted on the internet.

My mother has made poultice using the following for years:

activated charcoal
flax
a little bit of flax oil
olive oil

Mix half and half charcoal/milled flax. Work in a couple drops of flax oil. Then work in enough olive oil to make it like a thick paste. Place between the layers of a paper towel (Viva is ideal for this) and apply to any area where there is infection.

Not a cure for those tough to treat skin staph infections. But it is a wonderful, non medical treatment that provides immediate, cooling relief. Just keep your prepared poultice in a container in your fridge so it doesn't go rancid.

ETA: i have heard great things about French Green Clay, and have considered adding this to the poultice mixture to see if it increases the effectiveness.

They are provably wrong. Diet/exercise may help diabetes, but not always. Diabetes is caused by a malfunctioning organ, or some other malfunctioning process associated with that organ (pancreas).

A low carb diet is good for someone with hyperglycemia. But with hypoglycemia, you just have to micro manage blood sugar and have contingencies covered at all times.

This thread is just filled with terrible information. Not regarding the charcoal in general, but just as far as anything that's been said about diabetes. Are we confused much?

Make no mistake, diabetes (both types) especially type 2, is extremely simple to remedy. It is a perfect example of an ailment that results from eating foods that HARM your body. It's very simple. We've been tricked for many years into eating foods we've been told are okay to eat. "Oh, it's okay in moderation..." No, it's still harmful in moderation. Poison doesn't have to be acute - it can be anything that damages cells or prevents them from functioning over a period of time. But guess what? That's 90% of the food in these "grocery stores". So what now?

If you want to get rid of diabetes and do it fast, then the only way to succeed is to eat the foods that HELP the cells of the body. If you eat raw, living fruits and vegetables ONLY, then you will not have diabetes. Period. If you do this for a significant amount of time, then you will regenerate proper pancreatic function. And before you ask, yes, if you go back to eating pathetically, then you will get diabetes again. No wonder - you are eating the foods that couldn't be better designed to cause diabetes and cellular malfunction.

Common cooked grains and cooked sugars are the two worst things possible a diabetic could eat. You think it's ok to eat a bagel for breakfast? That's the worst choice possible, you may as well eat an oh henry bar for christsakes. These sugars and refined grains (complex carbs = high amounts of refined sugar) require your pancreas to work like a madman to produce all the insulin required. The poor thing is shot because we don't have a clue.

The biggest area that stonewalls people is their believe that a carb is a carb which is sin of the highest regard. 30 carbs from a bagel is 100% different then 30 carbs coming from raw fruit. Comparing the two is like saying water is the same as lava because they are both liquid. It's absolutely insane to compare.

And by the way, natural, raw, fruit sugar enters the cell wall by diffusion, meaning it doesn't require insulin as a carrier to enter the cell and be used as energy. This means it gives your pancreas a much needed break.

And also, sugar is absolutely essential to all cells. Sugar is cellular energy. Period. You require it to live just as your car requires gasoline to run. People get confused when they hear sugar which is unfortunate. But do not be confused. Think of the water/lava analogy. All raw natural fruit sugar (fructose) and raw natural vegetable sugar (glucose) are simple carbon chained constituents. They are essential to all cells of the body. Altering and bonding them to minerals by cooking changes the molecular bonds of these simple sugars and you are essentially "turning water into lava" and the cells of your body are taking the hit. The fact that "diabetes" arises or that the pancreas goes down, is just the first domino. (and for the love of god, do not get raw fructose/glucose confused with cooked/molecularly altered fructose/glucose. That's the water/lava comparison again)

The good news is, it's completely reversible in all instances and it is completely your choice. BUT, if you want to "eat the foods you enjoy, because you like the taste" - than that's unfortunate, because you won't be getting rid of anything.

At least you made the choice.

Type 1 diabetics need to understand that they'll still need insulin injections even if they consume a meal that doesn't spike blood sugar. Reason? Ketones, the byproduct of fat oxidation, build up in the blood if insulin isn't present.

Ketosis is normal and quite healthy to an individual with a properly functioning pancreas (or at least partially). Ketosis in a Type 1 Diabetic becomes Ketoacidosis....which leads to hyperglycemia and eventually a diabetic coma. Type 1's certainly need to be take caution when consuming less than 75g of carbs a day.

Amazing. Truly needs to be bumped. This is the kind of answer I was looking for when I made a thread about what to do if you were in a situation where you was bitten by a snake or a spider and couldn't goto the hospital worse case scenario, you'd die. What options or preparations could you have without going to the hospital?

Good thread, finally I've found an answer. Thank you.
