so why do you think it is that some people can eat tons of carbs and sugars and never get diabetes??? and then others do???? I think it contributes, but I don't think it causes it, or everyone who ate lots of carbs and sugars would have diabetes.... ----- Original Message ----- From: Rob Combis To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2003 1:32 PM Subject: RE: CS>Diabetes
I could not agree more. This is definitely a condition not a disease. It is very easily reverseable. There is an herbal remedies group on yahoo where you can learn a lot from asking questions about this. I have learned a ton there. Your diet is vital in reversing this. Stay away from carbs and especially refined sugars. As you body gets bombarded with sugar in order for it to burn off the sugar it excretes insulin. After a while your body develops a resistance to insulin and must produce more and more to burn off the sugar. This resistance to insulin is called, diabetes. Here is a post from the herbal remedies group that talks a little about this. --Rob I want to bring up the sugar thing. Eating too much sugar does make you gain weight because it burns off very slow in our bodies. Sugar is a carb. It increases your appetite and causes your insulin levels to spike. When you eat starches, flours, and yeasts your also adding sugar into your body. To burn off these sugars your body puts out insulin. By bombarding your body with so much sugar for so long, your cells become resistant to the insulin thats put out to burn all this sugar off and now your body must produce more and more of it and the result is insulin resistance (Diabetes). When the FDA told us to cut out meats because it raises our cholesteral and eat more macaroni and such, it created the largest generation of Diabetics. I believe (this is my own thoughts) that sugar was not meant to be a part of a healthy diet for us. It has only negative effects on the body and nature always balences things out so because sugar has such a bad effect on us, I dont believe we were ever intended to eat it. I have done so much reading on this. -----Original Message----- From: Dean Miller [mailto:dtmil...@midiowa.net] Sent: Thu 11/13/2003 3:06 PM To: silver-list@eskimo.com Cc:
