Diabetes–not for life
It has always been a known by many that diabetes is for life. Also, one needs to take medication the whole life through. Those diagnosed with adult-onset, or type 2 diabetes are told this fallacy. It is interesting to note that 25% of people over 40 now are victims of this life-threatening condition.
You will be surprised to note that more and more reports are received on a complete reversal–no need for medication. These reports come from former diabetics, by those who follow a low ‘glycemic load’ diet, combining a mineral supplement and the spice cinnamon.
Fedon Lindberg from Norway, world renown diabetes doctor has reported a complete reversal of the most common form, type 2 diabetes, and even in those injecting insulin, by this radical non-drug approach. ‘A balanced low glycemic load (GL) diet, coupled with a healthy lifestyle, can also achieve non-diabetic sugar levels without the need for medication – therefore ‘reversing’ the disease,’ he says. He has challenged the Norwegian Diabetes Association to change its advice.
Despite 15 controlled studies on chromium, 13 of which show benefit for stabilising blood sugar, most diabetics are still being told ‘you get all the nutrients you need in a well-balanced diet’.
This is simply untrue for chromium. A really good, wholefood diet might give you 50mcg a day. You need 500mcg a day if you are diabetic. (It is very safe to take this much as the toxic level is above 10,000mcg.)
