Diabetes... Sweet Story of Healing
In a time not too long ago, there lived a little girl named Lindsey. (Real story.) She was born on the pale side of health and never seemed to get better. At six she was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. Then began the scramble to save her life. Heavy doses of insulin. Seventeen different drugs. But nothing worked. Gradually her listless body began to shut down. First the bladder. Then the kidneys. Then the liver. Her mother, in a frantic effort to buy time, wanted to donate a kidney. But the doctors refused. It was too late. The damage too great. Lindsey went home to die. But then someone suggested giving her sugar. At first, Lindsey's mother was horrified. But then she became convinced enough to add eight simple sugars to her daughter's diet. Nothing happened...at first. It took time. But then improvement began to shine from behind Lindsey's wasted face. Gradually, her organs started functioning again. The prescription drugs were dropped. Her insulin requirements were cut in half. Today, Lindsey is an energetic young girl of 12. Loves sports. And is trying out for cheerleading. Did the simple sugars heal her? No. Simple sugars have no healing power of their own. Yet recent Nobel Prize winning discoveries in medicine confirmed that they are essential for the functioning of human cells. And it is the cells that perform the healing. Not only do they heal but, as in Lindsey's case, the damage caused by the disease is often reversed. Is diabetes the only disease affected by these simple sugars? No. There are thousands of testimonials from people with life debilitating and life threatening diseases that have been helped. Cancer...MS...Fibromyalgia...arthritis...and that's just the beginning of a long list. So why haven't you heard about this? The Science of Simple Sugars is relatively new. Plus the sugars are classified as 'food' which tends to place them below the radar of most doctors. This means you may have to check out the science on your own. There are a number of resources available. It will eventually become standard medical treatment. But until then, many people will suffer and even die because of the lack of knowledge. Don't be one of them. Doug Grant and his wife Jan have helped many people learn about the Science of Simple Sugars. For more information visit http://www.GrantForHealth.com

Syndrome X - What Is It And Have You Got It? Syndrome X or the X factor as it is sometimes known was first described in 1988 by Professor Gerald Reaven , an endocrinologist at California's Stanford University after twenty years of study. Since this first identification the understanding of Syndrome X has come a long way. Normal Blood Sugar Levels ARE Possible for a Diabetic! What are normal blood sugar levels? Fasting (blood sugar level after not eating for 8 hours) blood sugar should be between 70 milligrams per deciliter to 100 mg/dL. Your blood sugar should not be above 100 at any given time; If it is, this suggests a pre-diabetes condition. A level of 100 - 199 suggests prediabetes. A level over 200 suggests that you have either Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes. Diabetes Meal planning includes choosing healthy foods, eating the right amount of food, and eating meals at the right time. The American Diabetes Association and the American Dietetic Association developed 6 food exchange lists for the purpose of meal planning for people with diabetes as part of a diabetes diet. The 6 lists for a diabetes diet are: starch or bread, meat and substitutes, vegetables, fruits, milk or dairy, and fat. Every food on the list has approximately the same amount of carbohydrate, fat, protein, and calories for the amount given. Raising Happy Diabetic Kids This is the first in a series of articles I am about to embark upon concerning this subject. As my family gets older and matures with this disease I think back to the early days and wonder why aren't we all on medication for depression? Why don't we have standing twice a week appointments with a psychiatrist? How did we end up so normal?(whatever that is) As I look back this didn't happen by accident, nor am I Super Dad, and I didn't plan it out step by step. It was mostly just paying attention, luck, and decent communication between my girls and me, granted sometimes at the top of our lungs. Benfotiamine - A New Tool In Preventing Diabetic Complications? Benfotiamine made headlines globally in 2003 when researchers released information about a study that was conducted at The Einstein College of Medicine in New York. The bottom line of this study was that a substance of the allithiamine group of the naturally occurring thiamine-derived compounds had positive effects on neuropathy, retinopathy and nephropathy and heart/circulatory problems in diabetics. Type I Diabetes: Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Type I diabetes is also known as insulin-dependent diabetes or juvenile diabetes. This form of diabetes is mainly found in children. The primary problem in all forms of diabetes, regardless if it is Type I or Type II is that the glucose (sugar) levels of the body are too high. Insulin Insulin has two critical roles in the body that we cannot live without, yet it can be the root of many health problems, including diabetes. Insulin carries sugar (glucose), fat and protein into your cells where they are used for energy and the repair of your cells. When you eat, a certain amount of the food will be converted into glucose and enter the bloodstream. As the sugar levels rise, the body senses it and the pancreas secretes insulin to lower the sugar. This is insulin's second main function. Diabetes is Manageable It is estimated that over 18 million people over the age of 20 in this country have diabetes. Persons over the age of 45 and those considered obese according to the Bio Mass Index are in elevated risk categories for this potentially fatal disease. Once diagnosed the potential health conditions that may result are: partial to complete blindness, kidney disease, hypoglycemia and certain sexual and urological problems including erectile dysfunction in men. Despite all of these potential effects the truth is very simple-diabetes is manageable! Medical Supply Cases for Insulin and Diabetics Medical supply manufacturers are continuously conceptualizing medical supplies needed by people who are in delicate health condition ? medical supplies that may enable the patient to lead a life with at least a semblance of normalcy. The Profect Solution for Diabetics Diabetes, which affects more than 6% of the US population or over 18,000,000 people [i], is diagnosed when the body is not creating or effectively utilizing the hormone called insulin. As a result, much-needed energy from sugar, starch, and other sources are not being exploited as effectively as they should. This can lead to severe adverse health consequences, including nerve, ocular, and kidney problems [ii]. Living Healthy with Diabetes Diabetes affects around 16 million Americans and about 800,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. Diabetes attacks men, women, children and the elderly. It spares no race. Recognizing Early Symptoms Diabetes Early symptoms diabetes Build Health: Want To Prevent Diabetes?
