DIABETES
Everything we eat affects the level of our blood sugar and insulin.
That is why food is a main factor in the beginning, development and treatment of the disease.

Following a diet is one of the most important factors in treating diabetes. Even if you take medicine to keep your sugar at the right level, it is still very important to eat the right foods. Talk to your doctor about what diet is right for you because it should be based on the severity of your condition, your life style and your type of work.
Here are just general guide lines. You should get vitamins C, K and group B. Natural sources of vitamin C are wild roses, citruses, apples, parsley and vegetables.Sources of vitamin B1 are yeast, whole grains, poultry and many vegetables. You will get vitamin B2 with yeast, milk, eggs, fish and meat. There is vitamin A in cream butter, milk, meat and fish. Sources of carotene are vegetables and fruits.
These foods are recommended: pomegranate, lemon, onion, garlic, cinnamon (1/2 tea spoon of cinnamon a day will lower your blood sugar. You also can add pieces of cinnamon in your tea), fish, broccoli, kidney beans, lentil, barley, cabbage, turnip, coriander seeds, blueberries, pears, beans, viburnum, dogwood, pumpkin, beets, cabbage, oatmeal and horseradish.
These foods are NOT recommended: sugar, jam, syrups, beer and mayonnaise.
Limit the foods containing cholesterol like cream butter, fat meat, egg yolks and lard, etc.
Remember that there is a lot of glucose in some fruits and vegetables, like grapes, bananas, potatoes and persimmon.
Introduction To Diabetes

Diabetes is a growing health problem in the world today. Did you know that approximately 20.8 million children and adults are diagnosed with diabetes in the United States alone? These numbers are growing every day. The exact cause of diabetes is not clear, however, lack of exercise and obesity are huge factors in the development of diabetes. This article will give some general information about diabetes.

Glucose is considered the body's fuel. We get glucose from the foods that we eat. It is not just sugar alone that is converted into glucose, but also starches and carbohydrates are chemically broken down into glucose. Without glucose your body would not function. All muscles and major organs in your body need glucose. But how does the glucose get to the proper destinations?

Insulin is the hormone that distributes the glucose to the liver, fat cells and muscles. A diabetic does not produce enough insulin or for some reason, his body is not able to process it effectively. When this happens the glucose stays in the blood and produces high blood sugar.

Diabetes can be classified into the following three types:

Type 1 Diabetes

In type 1 diabetes the body produces little or no insulin and daily injections of insulin are necessary to sustain life. This type is usually present from childhood and is also called insulin dependent diabetes.

Type 2 Diabetes

It is the more common type of diabetes and usually develops in adulthood. With type 2 diabetes, the body is unable to effectively use the insulin produced. Most type 2 diabetics are managed by diet and oral medications.

Gestational Diabetes

This type develops during pregnancy and usually goes away after the birth of the baby.

It is important to know the risks factor of diabetes. One of the biggest risks factors is a family history. If you have a parent or sibling with diabetes, your chances of developing diabetes are very good. Also being over 45 years of age, being obese, having poor eating habits or being of African American or Native American descent can increase your chance of becoming a diabetic.

If you have any of the above risk factors, be aware of the warning signs of diabetes. Contact you doctor if you have any of these signs and symptoms:

- Increased appetite
- Increased thirst
- Frequent urination
- Slow healing cuts or infections
- Increased amount of infections
- Blurry vision

If you are diagnosed with diabetes, treatment will usually involve diet changes and oral medications. In more severe cases, insulin injections may be prescribed.

Diabetes is manageable if the proper treatment regimen is followed. Talk with your doctor and a good diabetic educator. Have your doctor set you up an appointment with a registered dietician. She can show you what you can and cannot eat on a diabetic diet. Check your blood sugar levels frequently. Educate yourself about all the treatment options out there. Lose weight and become more active. Getting a diagnosis of diabetes is no reason to stop living.

HEALTH TIP
Usually alcohol is not recommended for people who have diabetes. And it is hard to find an explanation why. There are two sources of getting sugar in your blood: carbohydrates of your food and glucose from your liver. If you are healthy, you constantly get glucose from your liver and your blood sugar does not drop lower than 3.3 mmol/L.
If you have diabetes and you are not getting glucose from your liver,  your blood sugar will be increased after you eat but the carbohydrates will be assimilated by your body because of the insulin effect and the level of your blood sugar will drop lower than 3.3 mmol/L. You will get a serious case of hypoglycemia.

Alcohol blocks entering glucose from your liver. That is why if you are going to drink alcohol, you should prevent getting hypoglycemia. NEVER take pills that lower your sugar before drinking. You must eat before drinking and alcohol will be absorbed slower. Do not drink champagne because the bubbles help fast alcohol absorption. You have to eat carbohydrates (cereal, bread, pasta, ziti or apples) right after your drink.  
Check your blood sugar in a few hours.
When your blood sugar suddenly drops a lot, you can feel sudden weakness, cold perspiration, numbness of your lips and tongue, intense hunger, trembling and a rapid heartbeat.
If you feel that your blood sugar is decreasing, get fast absorbing carbohydrates like a few pieces of sugar, very sweet tea, water or juice because usually you have only about 1 min to start helping yourself before it is too late. Do not eat candies, chocolate or cookies because glucose from this kind of food assimilates slowly. After, you should eat a few pieces of dark bread or a bowl of potatoes or cereal.
Tell your relatives and friends in advance what they have to do in a case of hypoglycemia. Your friends and relatives should not pour water or put any food in your mouth if you passed out. If you do not have glucagon for injection, they should rub some honey or fruit jam in your gums and call 911.
ALWAYS have a few pieces of sugar and  dark bread with you.
Also, it will be great if you prepare a card with information about how to help you if you suddenly get hypoglycemia and pass out. Carry this card everywhere with you.
BEAUTY TIP

People who have diabetes know that it takes a long time for even small scratches to heal. Sometimes it can be very painful.

Here is a great easy remedy. Prepare carrot oil. Put 1 glass of grated carrots in a small pot and cover the carrots with vegetable oil. Put the small pot in a big pot with boiling water (steam bath). Close the small pot with a cover. Keep it on a heat for about 15 min (until the oil in the small pot is ready to boil) and let it cool in room temperature. Then filter the oil. Your carrot oil is ready. Rub it in your sore spots and eat 1 tea spoon of the oil 4 times a day. Hold it in your mouth for 3 min before swallowing. Keep the carrot oil in your refrigerator. You will not believe how fast your sore spots will heal.

How To Play the Diabetes Game To WinIt is amazing that no one is talking about beating diabetes simply by making some easy alterations to the foods you’re already eating.

No one ever talks about “beating diabetes”, everyone seems to be content with finding ways to “control diabetes” or “live with diabetes”. And for good reason.    
Listen, if somebody showed you how to beat diabetes… they wouldn’t make very much money off of you. But if somebody invents a pill or a shot that helps you live with diabetes… they’ll get your money week-after-week, month-after-month, year-after-year until the day you die.

Over four hundred hears before the birth of Jesus Christ, Hippocrates said…
Just as food causes chronic disease, it can be the most powerful cure 

While it’s an uncommon solution here in the Western Hemisphere (most doctors are trained to pass out drugs, not actually fix the problem), many people are actually banishing diabetes for good by fixing the problem with food!



Diabetes: The Vitamin & Mineral ConnectionPeople don't die from diabetes.  They die from "complications". 
"Complications" develop from "symptoms", therefore, first there are "symptoms" letting you, your body, and/or  your doctor know something is going wrong. 
Because the body tries to heal itself,  if the correct action is taken to SOLVE  the ROOT CAUSE of the symptom, the symptom may disappear and then cannot develop into a "complication".   
If  an incorrect action is taken, such as not giving the body what it needs to heal itself, then the symptom will likely worsen and then develop into a "complication" ;  resulting  in blindness, amputation, kidney (renal) failure, or in a worst case scenario  ... death.
If you could discover and solve the root causes of the various symptoms while they were still "symptoms",  would not the symptoms likely disappear  and then could not develop into "complications"? 
TWO  CONCLUSIONS :  "Complications" are merely "symptoms" that have developed into advanced stages.  Also "complications"  "may"  be prevented if you discover and solve the root cause of the various "symptoms", WHILE THEY ARE STILL "SYMPTOMS"!
 This is cutting edge research! 

Natural Diabetes Handbook is more than just a book:  It's your personal coach, a reference guide, motivational tool, by all accounts,
A TRUE LIFE SAVER! The work in this book is based on the latest research into natural diabetes remedies.
 This book clearly shows that a new and different approach is far superior at preventing....improving...even reversing diabetes than traditional methods.
