Hi diabetic friends,
I'm a type 1 diabetic since 1980, reasonable well controlled. I'm exercising 7 days a week (as a diabetic should), and my GP says I'm the fittest of her patients!
I'm reading this book 'The pH Miracle For Diabetes' by Robert O. Young and his wife, and I'm wondering if anybody with Type 1 has tried this out?
The principles that he describes in the book seems interesting enough.
Although the lifestyle with limited used of most foods (like meat, any sweets, milk, coffee, tea etc) to stabilize the pH balance between acids and alkalines in your stomach, seems pretty drastic.
I also understand that the possibility of getting rid of the use of insulin, is probably a bit restricted, but I'm willing to try it just to test this out.
Unfortunately doctors and scientists seems not to work on solving the diabetes problem (or cancer or any other diseases, but to always create different new medicines that you have to take every day (insulin, high blood pressure tablets, cholesterol tablets etc), so the farmaceutical companies around can earn their money every day. I'm not against companies earning money, but they seem to overdo it a bit.
So my question is does anyone have any experience with 'the pH balance' way of living, is it worthwhile trying out or not?
