Renegade Scientist Discovers Cause of Diabetes-Medical Science is Slow to React
Diabetes is a debilitating disease
It robs those afflicted of their sight. It causes poor circulation sometimes resulting in amputations of the feet and legs. And ultimately it costs countless thousands their lives. The U.S. Surgeon General says that an estimated 300,000 deaths per year may be attributable to obesity. Overweight and obesity are closely linked to type 2 diabetes.
An Electrifying Moment
Dr. Robert O. Young, a scientist and microbiologist, sent shockwaves through the medical community when his published report pinpointed the cause of diabetes. Young was collaborating his research with Johns Hopkins Medical School, But chances are that if you are being treated for diabetes, your physician hasn't mentioned this.
The overwhelming majority of diabetics have been told that diabetes has no cure-based on the premise that the cause is unknown. Yes, Dr. Young's discovery sent shockwaves-but for the most part the shock was that a multi-billion dollar industry was delivered a wakeup call.
Our Immune System Can Not Handle the Load
For as long as human beings walked this planet, the immune system it was equipped with has kept it healthy. The body and all of its related functions evolved to the point that when alien microbes invaded its space, the immune system destroyed them.
The Western Diet
But as man evolved, so did his diet. Researchers studying why people in under-developed countries contract fewer disease than we in the Western world fall victim to. The outcome of this research was simply that western peoples developed a diet that has been smothering the immune system generation after generation.
It began with the Industrial Revolution, when manufacturers began offering prepared, pre-packaged foods and a new genre of things to drink. The western diet leaned toward the carbohydrate side. So we began consuming more sugar and starches, which are converted into sugar during the digestive process.
The Fast Food Nation
Today in the U.S, and many European countries, we have become a Fast Food civilization. High calorie, high carb meals are the norm. So much so that 1/3 of the U.S. population is overweight-bordering on obese.
And as mentioned earlier, obesity and diabetes are closely related.
A word here about what diabetes is: The function of the pancreas is to convert sugar into glucose. Insulin produced by the beta cells in the pancreas carry the glucose to the cells throughout the body, which they convert into energy. No glucose-no energy.
Dr. Young's Discovery
Dr. Young's astounding discovery was that the blood has become highly acidic due to our diet. When the acid reaches high levels it floods the pancreas causing the beta cells to slow down insulin production, and at times-stopping insulin production all together. And to compound the problem, even if enough glucose-bearing insulin reaches the cells, the excess acids prevent the cells from accepting it.
The real culprit in this scenario is the food we eat. We tend to consume too may high acid content foods.
High on the list of acidic foods are most animal meats: beef, pork, fish and fowl. Certain vegetables like corn, beans and most grains (flour) are acidic too.
Neutralize the Acid
Does this mean that to be healthy we have to be vegetarians? Certainly not! We should eat smaller portions of meat and neutralize the acidic effects by eating alkaline foods. A perfect balance may be hard to achieve but literally thousands of people are completely free of all diabetes symptoms by following a strict diet that balances acid and alkaline foods and is low in carbohydrates.
Knowledge is power and the more you have, the better are your chances of becoming diabetes free. There is no silver bullet. But a dedicated effort on your part will produce significant results. It will not happen overnight. I have seen testimonials from real people who claim positive results after being diabetic for many years. In fact thousands of people world-wide have reaped the benefits of a no sugar, low carb, and low acid diet. The result has been freedom from the drugs and insulin being pumped into their bodies.
This is not to suggest that you quit taking drugs, just change your lifestyle and you will not need them anymore. Here is information that will help you make an informed decision as to what to do next.
