Diabetes – The Misunderstood Disease

Type 2 Diabetes is one of the most misunderstood diseases in medicine. It is typically thought of as a disease of high blood sugar. (High sugar is the symptom, not the disease).

To further confuse the issue, doctors will tell you it’s hereditary. If that were so, how does one explain the 600% increase in Type 2 Diabetes worldwide in the latter half of the last century (much of it within the same generation)? More and more children are developing what was once an adult disease.

Clearly something more than just genetic predisposition is at work here.

Limitations of Conventional Treatment

Conventional treatment focuses on lowering blood sugar levels with the use of oral medication and/or insulin. Even while sugar levels are controlled in this manner, the disease marches on, leading to conditions such as neuropathy, retinopathy and nephropathy.

If controlling sugar levels was all that was needed, why do diabetics develop these problems?

Conventional treatment lowers blood sugar levels while raising insulin levels. This approach solves one problem while creating a host of other problems. Current research clearly shows that high insulin levels play a major role in:
