When sugar becomes trapped and begins to increase in the blood stream, eating sugar at this point can be life-threatening. Not having enough glucose reaching the cells and organs of the body can also be fatal. If the heart cells run out of glucose, heart failure occurs. If the kidney cells run out of glucose, kidney failure occurs. If the eyes don’t get their glucose, eyesight will fail. The same applies to a sugar-starved liver, pancreas, […]

Populations that eat meat regularly have the shortest life spans and the highest incidence of degenerative diseases. According to published reports of national health statistics from around the world, one out of two people in the industrialized world will die from heart disease or a related blood vessel disease. In other words, heart disease is the leading killer disease in the world, with cancer following closely behind. As long ago as June 1961, the American Medical […]

Type I diabetes affects nearly 700,000 people in the United States. It is the most common chronic metabolic disorder to affect children. Caucasian populations, especially Scandinavians, have the greatest risk, and people of Asian or African descent have the lowest risk of developing this form of diabetes.
Type I diabetes is usually diagnosed in children or adults under 30. The difference of risk is less due to genetic factors than to dietary ones, as we shall see […]

Approximately 16 million people in the United States are diagnosed with diabetes based on national statistics. In reality, through, this figure is much higher. It is estimated that another 5.4 million people have the disease and are not aware of it. Type II diabetes, also called adult onset diabetes, now appears routinely in six year old children. Minorities are at particular risk, as their diet consists mainly of cheap fast foods, such as hamburgers, fried chicken, pasta, […]
Does craving for sweets and starchy foods indicate diabetes?
The answer is not really. However, it can indicate the stage of pre-diabetes. Having cravings for sweets and starchy food shows that there is something not quite balanced with regard to processing complex carbohydrates or storing complex sugars in the muscles and in the liver and it usually indicates that the liver functions are subdued due to bile duct congestion with intra-hepatic gallstones where the bile is […]
Processing meat requires a huge insulin response, more than eating half a pound of sugar!
Hi, this is with regards to diabetes and meat consumption or animal protein consumption and I have stated in my diabetes book “DIABETES NO MORE” about how the human body, while processing meat, will require a huge insulin response which is much, much bigger than in response to eating half a pound of sugar.
And this can be, […]
The pancreas is a small gland with its ‘head’ lying in the curve of the duodenum. Its main duct joins the common bile duct (of the liver and gallbladder) to form what is known as the ampulla of the bile duct. The ampulla enters the duodenum at its midpoint. Apart from secreting the hormones, insulin and glucagon, the pancreas produces pancreatic juice containing enzymes that digest carbohydrates, proteins and fats. When acid stomach contents enter the duodenum, they are […]
Healing the Pancreas
This is a question on the pancreas and the question goes; can you please tell us how to heal the pancreas?
Now, there are many illnesses related to a dysfunctional or weak pancreas, for example diabetes, but something that is rarely considered is that it is to a large degree due to impaired liver and gall bladder function. What happens very often is that when the liver bile ducts get congested and […]
Ways to Balance Blood Sugar and resolve Insulin Resistance
Hi this is a great question from Kenny Chan: What is the best way to balance blood sugar or resolve insulin resistance?
In order to answer that question, we have to identify the root causes for abnormal blood sugar level and not just rectify or attack the symptoms such as high blood sugar or the inability of these cells to take up […]
