Thank you for purchasing Diabetes Diet.

Diabetes Diet is not just for those who have diabetes. It can be used by anyone who wants to prevent or cure diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

For those of you who have diabetes, this book will provide an explanation on how you most likely developed the disease and easy to follow steps to eliminate diabetes from your life forever!

Diabetes is fairly simple to eliminate once you understand how you contracted it. This book will shock and excite you. You will finally understand why you could not lose weight even after eating all of those low-fat foods. You will also learn how to prevent or eliminate heart disease and cancer.

I have included a special diet section just for your pets. Dogs and cats have been developing diabetes and cancer at alarming rates. My vet recently disclosed to me that out of every ten pets she sees at least one of them has diabetes, cancer, or both.

Prior to starting this program, my sugar levels were over 380. Two weeks later, my sugar levels returned to normal. Two years later, my sugar levels are still normal. You may not have the dramatic results I had, but if you commit to making a few small changes in your life, you will change the direction of your health and life forever. I guarantee it!

I would like to dedicate this book to my Grand Mother; My Father, Charles; and to all who have fought the diabetes battle.

I would also like to thank my Mother Dee; my God Mother, Jeanne; my sister Beth and Jana for all their love and support.

Love You All . . . Virginia

CHAPTER 1

Understanding Diabetes

Approximately 1.6 million new cases of diabetes are diagnosed each year in the United States. Each year that number continues to rise sharply. Today the vast and growing number of people in the United States with pre-diabetes is 40 million and those with Type 2 diabetes is 23.6 million! That is over 30% of our population. Diabetes is one of our nation’s most expensive diseases costing us over $218 billion each year! (http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/diabetes-statistics/)

What Is Type 2 Diabetes and When Did It Begin?

Diabetes mellitus often referred to as type 2 diabetes is a condition in which a person has a high blood sugar (glucose) level. It is usually caused by the body either not producing enough insulin or because body cells are not properly responding to the insulin that is produced.

The earliest records of type 2 diabetes started around the late 1930s to the early 1940s. Coincidently, this was approximately ten years after Procter & Gamble introduced the first hydrogenated cooking and corn oils. Their names were Crisco and Mazola.

The emergence of the new type 2 diabetes disease looked very much like diabetes, acted like diabetes, but was not caused by a deficiency of insulin.

At the time, the medical profession could not understand what had caused this new disease to appear so suddenly. After years of research, physicians began to discover that people were producing enough insulin, but the insulin produced was not effective in reducing glucose levels in the blood. The phenomena for the insulin resistance could not be determined by the medical community. They named the new disease non-insulin dependent diabetes, or type 2 diabetes.

Type II, or type 2, diabetes is one of the rare diseases that is not caused by a microbe or impurities in vaccinations.

What Is Insulin and How Does It Work?

Insulin is a hormone that is central to regulating energy and glucose metabolism in the body. Insulin causes cells in the liver, muscle, and fat tissues to absorb glucose from the blood, storing it as glycogen in the liver and muscle. Insulin stops the use of fat as an energy source sad%20face.jpg . When insulin levels are low the body begins to use stored fat as an energy source .

High blood sugar levels sore when your body is unable to produce enough insulin to store the carbohydrates (sugar) you have consumed into the cells. Over a period of time, constant over consumption of carbohydrates cause high sugar levels. These constant high sugar levels stress the body and organs leading to gland and organ damage. The disease accelerates over one’s lifetime.

Insulin is responsible for breaking down carbohydrates into sugar for cells (triglycerides). So the more carbohydrates you eat, the more insulin is produced. That is why it is very important to eat more protein and short to medium chain fats as opposed to carbohydrates. Proteins and short to medium chain fats motivate your body to produce less insulin and burn body fat.

What Causes Diabetes?

You might ask yourself, how did I contract type 2 diabetes? The answer is very simple. Overtime, you consumed excessive amounts of processed foods that contained trans (hydrogenated) fats, and chemically altered flour.

What? I thought sugar caused diabetes. No, sugar does not cause diabetes, but it can escalate the disease.

What? I thought I had diabetes because my pancreas was not functioning properly. That probably is true, but the real question here is, why isn’t your pancreas functioning properly? The main reason a pancreas stops functioning properly is the result of a domino effect that is created by trans fats surrounding your cells.

Recently, it has been discovered that the chemical Alloxan, which is found in white and enriched wheat bread, can cause and accelerate diabetes.

In most cases, type 2 diabetes is NOT caused by genetics. Type 2 diabetes begins and ends with diet.

Doctors use the genetics excuse a lot because they simply do not have or want to take the time to help cure their patients. Most doctors spend about 10 minutes with each patient. Hardly enough time to diagnosis or treat a problem. For most it is easier and more profitable to write a subscription.

Inside the pancreas, beta cells make the hormone insulin. With each meal, beta cells release insulin to help the body use or store the blood glucose it gets from food. If your pancreas produces little to no insulin, you are considered a type 1 diabetic. This is caused by your immune system or some other factor destroying the insulin producing beta cells of the pancreas. The chemical alloxan found in all white and enriched wheat flour destroy the beta cells in your pancreas. It is important to avoid any kind of white or enriched wheat flour. Type 2 diabetes occurs when your body does not respond to the insulin produced (insulin resistance). The main reason for this would be cells having a trans fat cell wall instead of a cholesterol wall. When cells have a trans fat cell wall, the blood is unable to inject the proper amounts of nutrients and oxygen into that cell. We will talk more about this later in the book.

Too much sugar in your blood causes a great strain and damage to glands and organs. As a result of prolonged sugar exposure, the pancreas, glands, and organs will begin to malfunction.

The pancreas regulates blood sugar levels, ensuring they are neither too high nor too low. Poor health in organs or glands, such as the liver, thyroid, and adrenals, can also contribute to blood sugar problems. The main reason for the lowered state of health in the pancreas and other organs are attributed to poor diet, low levels of specific nutrients, or genetic problems.

Again, the main reason people contract type 2 diabetes is because their cells cannot accept nutrients and oxygen mainly due to trans fats surrounding their cells. This trans plastic shield around the cell prevents nutrients and oxygen from penetrating the cell where they are needed. This inability to deposit nutrients into the cell keeps a large amount of glucose in the bloodstream.

The key to removing this extra sugar out of your bloodstream for good is simply this: Remove excess sugar, white or enriched wheat flour and trans fats out of your life forever. This can be accomplished through diet, supplements, and exercise. The maximum sugar/carbohydrate intake for a healthy person is 50 grams a day. That means if you drink one 12 oz sugar soda, you have ingested all the sugar/carbohydrates you can have for that day.

If you are over 40 or overweight, you should be tested for diabetes. Local stores sell home diabetes testing kits for about $20.

White or Enriched Wheat Bread

Almost all baked goods are made with bad flour, bad oils, toxic ingredients, or a combination of all three.

Bad oils include all poly-unsaturated oils and most mono-unsaturated oils. The reason they are considered bad oils is due to their inability to handle heat. Almost ALL oils made in the United States are processed at very high heat levels. Most heat processing levels exceed 400 degrees! Under US law, there are NO heat guidelines for using the term cold pressed or expeller pressed on a product. Unless a product specifically states what temperature it was processed at, you can rest assured it was processed at a VERY high temperature. The higher the processing temperature, the higher the oil yield. Heating poly or mono-unsaturated fats at high temperatures turn them into toxic oils. Good oils include saturated oils (fats) which, by their very nature, are heat stable. Take the guess work out of baked goods. Buy only those products that are made with saturated fats like butter, coconut oil, or palm oil.

Wheat flour is turned white by bleaching the flour using Chlorine gas. Enriched wheat bread uses this same process. The problem with this procedure is a toxic chemical is produced called alloxan. Alloxan is a byproduct that remains in the flour.

When you consume bleached or enriched flour, you are consuming the toxic chemical alloxan. Once alloxan is ingested, it immediately begins to destroy the beta cells in your pancreas.

Remember, the pancreas is responsible for making insulin! Alloxan can induce or accelerate diabetes.

Alloxan is used by many scientist to induce diabetes in lab animals because it destroys the insulin-producing function of the pancreas, allowing glucose levels to shoot sky-high. Unlike the liver, the pancreas does not heal itself. Therefore, white and enriched wheat flour are very important foods to avoid. (Alloxan is a toxic glucose analogue, which selectively destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas when administered to rodents and many other animal species.)

If that isn’t bad enough, most white and enriched wheat bread are made with hydrogenated oils, canola oil, and/or soy products, or a combination of these bad oils and toxic ingredients.

Most refined grains are enriched. Enriched means that certain B vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid), and iron are sprayed back onto the grain after chlorine gas processing. Fiber is not added back to enriched grains. Do not eat ANY white or enriched wheat flour
