    Trying so willfully to come off T2DM

    Totto I appreciate your concern. I am not doing anything different from the Newcastle trial, except that my diet is ketogenic. Thus allowing deeper visceral fat to be burned. I know that I can up my calorie intake to a higher level. But I am afraid that my will may waver with time. However my...

    You are 100 percent correct. I may have rushed into saying "rich, while the proper phrase is " processed carbs rich" countries. And Yes, low activity plays a big factor in causing the condition.

    Trying so willfully to come off T2DM

    Low carbing has many advantages. So does low fat diets. Although I think low carbing is essential in treating T2DM, I am not really a proponent of either school of dieting. I would logically deduce that low carbs diet is good for diabetic people, while low fat is better for cardiovascular...

    ="RuthW, post: 969372, member: 148713"]You have the usual affliction of the "diet-causes-and-cures-everything" blinkered crew. Not one mention of physical activity. And diabetes, like cancer is epidemic nowadays because people don't die earlier of bacterial or even viral disease as they used...

    My own explanation of how IR develops should be very easy to understand and consequently to reverse. Just when the body enters a starvation mode and starts to lower its insulin level In order to conserve muscles. The opposite happens when the body experiences surplus food. It should enter a...

    [QUbeliefs ,although I used the word Faith, are based on credible scientific research. I am not religious too and in fact this is why i strongly believe in the human body ability to heal itself. It is already proven that bariatric surgery and acute caloric restriction do reverse T2DM in most of...

    When i started my water fast i was very worried in the first few days wondering how long i could go on without food. The reason I continued for 24 days was because I felt hungry on that day only. During the fast I was active like a 20 years old

    "Brunneria, post: 969226, member: 41816"]Really? That is fascinating. My mother has been a severe dieter all her life, and guess what, underactive thyroid. Do you have any links? When you're going on zero carbs you're not really reducing your food. You're only relying on the food that you...

    Trying so willfully to come off T2DM

    Diabetes is becoming an epidemic in our days much more than a hundred years ago. It even existed in ancient egyption times. But the reason why it is becoming an epidemic is most certainly due to highly processed foods specially white flour bread and corn syrup in addition to the fact that human...

    Genetics will only make you susceptible to diabetes. The real culprit is our modern diet with highly processed food and abundant cooking oils.

    Trying so willfully to come off T2DM

    Hi Totto I think controlling blood glucose levels is great but only half the story. In my opinion a person becomes diabetic for having too much visceral fat and diabetes is a symptom in this case not the actual illness. I think that type 2 diabetes was confused with type 1 because they both have...

    The newcastle trial was conducted on people who had diabetes for less than 4 years. And the diet was tried for only 8 weeks. What I am doing different from that trial are 3 things. First I discontinued all diabetes medications except metfor in order to bring my insulin levels to the lowest...

    To answer your question. I'm type 2. It runs in the family and both my late parents died from its complications. I still see your point that maybe my diabetes progressed to type 1 after so many years from diagnosis. what makes me think that my best shot at it is by losing substantial weight is...

    Trying so willfully to come off T2DM

    I started attempting to cure myself from T2DM three years ago since I got convinced that it was not an ever lasting curse. I am driven by my faith that the pancreas can always meet the insulin requirements of the body even at partial functioning. The artificial insulin brands available in the...
