> But, since the disease had been known as diabetes for almost twenty

>

> This new ideal wonder drug would be, like insulin, effective in

>

> Like insulin, it would be highly profitable to manufacture and

> stimulate the use by physicians as a prescription drug. Testing

> required for these approvals would have to be enormously expensive to

> prevent other, unapproved, medications from becoming competitive.

>

> This is the origin of the classic medical protocol of " treating the

> symptoms " .

>

> By doing this, both the drug company and the doctor could prosper in

> business and the patient, while not being cured of his disease, was

> sometimes temporarily relieved of some of his symptoms.

>

> Additionally, natural medications that actually cured disease, would

> have to be suppressed. The more effective they were, the more they

> would need to be suppressed and their proponents jailed as quacks.

> After all, it wouldn't do to have some cheap effective natural

> medication cure disease in a capital intensive monopoly market

> specifically designed to treat symptoms without curing disease.

>

> Often the natural substance really did cure disease. This is why the

> force of law was used to drive the natural, often superior,

> medicines from the market place, to remove the cure word from the

> medical vocabulary and to totally undermine the very concept of a

> free marketplace in the medical business.

>

> Now it is clear why the cure word is so vigorously suppressed by law.

> The FDA has extensive Orwellian regulations that prohibit the use of

> frightening to the drug and orthodox medical community.

>

> The commercial value of symptoms

>

> After this redesign of drug development policy to focus on

> ameliorating symptoms rather than curing disease, it became

> necessary to reinvent the way drugs were marketed. This was done in

> 1949 in the midst of a major epidemic of insulin resistant diabetes.

>

> In 1949, the US medical community reclassified the symptoms of

>

> With this reclassification as the new basis for diagnosis, competing

>

> As the underlying cause of the disease was widely ignored, all focus

> Nature of the disease

>

> Diabetes is classically diagnosed as a failure of the body to

> properly metabolize carbohydrates. Its defining symptom is a high

> blood glucose level. Type 1 Diabetes results from insufficient

> insulin production by the pancreas. Type 2 Diabetes results from

> ineffective insulin. In both types, the blood glucose level remains

> elevated. Neither insufficient insulin nor ineffective insulin can

> limit post prandial (after eating) blood sugar to the normal range.

>

> In established cases of Type 2 Diabetes, these elevated blood sugar

> levels are often preceded by and accompanied by chronically elevated

> insulin levels and by serious distortions of other endocrine hormonal

> markers.

>

> The ineffective insulin is no different from effective insulin. Its

> ineffectiveness lies in the failure of our cell population to respond

> to it. It is not the result of any biochemical defect in the insulin

> itself. Therefore, it is appropriate to note that this disease is a

> disease that affects almost every cell in the seventy trillion or so

> cells of our body. All of these cells are dependent upon the food

> that we eat for the raw materials that they need for self repair and

> maintenance.

>

> The classification of diabetes as a failure to metabolize

> carbohydrates is a traditional classification that originated in the

> early 19th century when little was known about metabolic diseases or

> about metabolic processes. [15]

>

> Today, with our increased knowledge of metabolic processes, it would

> appear quite appropriate to define Type 2 Diabetes more fundamentally

> as a failure of the body to properly metabolize fats and oils. This

> failure results in a loss of effectiveness of insulin and in the

> consequent failure to metabolize carbohydrates. Unfortunately, much

> medical insight into this matter, except at the research level,

> remains hampered by its 19th century legacy.

>

> Thus Type II Diabetes and its early hyperinsulinemic symptoms are

> whole body symptoms of this basic cellular failure to properly

> metabolize glucose.

>

> Each cell of our body, for reasons which are becoming clearer, find

> themselves unable to transport glucose from the blood stream to their

> interior. The glucose then either remains in the blood stream, is

> stored as body fat or as glycogen, or is otherwise disposed of in

> urine.

>

> It appears that when insulin binds to a cell membrane receptor, it

> initiates a complex cascade of biochemical reactions inside the

> cell. This causes a class of glucose transporters known as GLUT 4

> molecules to leave their parking area inside the cell and travel to

> the inside surface of the plasma cell membrane.

>

> When in the membrane, they migrate to special areas of the membrane

> called caveolae areas. [16] There, by another series of biochemical

> reactions, they identify and hook up with glucose molecules and

> transport them into the interior of the cell by a process called

> endocytosis. Within the cells interior, this glucose is then burned

> as fuel by the mitochondria to produce energy to powercellular

> activity.

>

> Thus these GLUT 4 transporters lower glucose in the blood stream by

> transporting it out of the bloodstream into all of our bodily cells.

>

> Many of the molecules involved in these glucose and insulin mediated

> pathways are lipids, that is they are fatty acids. A healthy plasma

> cell membrane, now known to be an active player in the glucose

> scenario, contains a complement of cis type w=3 unsaturated fatty

> acids. [17] This makes the membrane relatively fluid and slippery.

> When these cis fatty acids are chronically unavailable because of our

> diet, trans fatty acids and short and medium chain saturated fatty

> acids are substituted in the cell membrane.

>

> These substitutions make the cellular membrane stiffer and more

> sticky and inhibit the glucose transport mechanism. [18]

>

> Thus, in the absence of sufficient cis omega 3 fatty acids in our

> diet, these fatty acid substitutions take place, the mobility of the

> GLUT 4 transporters is diminished, the interior biochemistry of the

> cell is changed and glucose remains elevated in the bloodstream.

>

> Elsewhere in the body, the pancreas secretes excess insulin, the

> liver manufactures fat from the excess sugar, the adipose cells

> store excess fat, the body goes into a high urinary mode,

> insufficient cellular energy is available for bodily activity and

> the entire endocrine system becomes distorted. Eventually pancreatic

> failure occurs, body weight plummets and a diabetic crisis is

> precipitated.

>

> Although there remains much work to be done to fully elucidate all

> beginning of a biochemical explanation for the known epidemiological

> relationship between cheap engineered dietary fats and oils and the

> onset of Type 2 Diabetes.

>

> Orthodox medical treatment

>

> After the diagnosis of diabetes, modern orthodox medical treatment

> consists of either oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin.

>

> n 1955, oral hypoglycemic drugs were introduced. Currently available

> oral hypoglycemic agents fall into five classifications according to

> their biophysical mode of action.[19] These classes are:

>

> Biguanides Glucosidase inhibitors Meglitinides Sulfonylureas

> Thiazolidinediones

>

> The biguanides lower blood sugar in three ways. They inhibit the

> normal release, by the liver, of its glucose stores, they interfere

> with intestinal absorption of glucose from ingested carbohydrates

> and they are said to increase peripheral uptake of glucose.

>

> The glucosidase inhibitors are designed to inhibit the amylase

> enzymes produced by our pancreas and which are essential to the

> digestion of carbohydrates.

>

> The theory is that if the digestion of carbohydrates is inhibited the

> blood sugar cannot be elevated.

>

> The meglitinides are designed to stimulate the pancreas to produce

> insulin in a patient that likely already has an elevated level of

> insulin in their bloodstream. Only rarely does the doctor even

> measure insulin levels. This drug is frequently prescribed without

> any knowledge of preexisting insulin levels.

>

> The fact that elevated insulin levels are almost as damaging as

> elevated glucose levels is widely ignored.

>

> The sulfonylureas are another pancreatic stimulant class designed to

> stimulate the production of insulin. Serum insulin determinations are

> rarely made by the doctor before prescribing this drug. This drug is

> often prescribed for type II diabetics, many of whom already have

> elevated ineffective insulin.

>

> These drugs are notorious for causing hypoglycemia as a side effect.

> The thiazolidinediones are famous for causing liver cancer. One of

> them, Rezulin, was approved in the USA through devious political

> infighting but failed to get approval in England because it was

> known to cause liver cancer.

>

> The first doctor that had responsibility to approve it at the FDA

> refused to do so. It was only after he was replaced by a more

> compliant official that Rezulin gained approval by the FDA. It went

> on to kill well over 100 diabetes patients and cripple many others

> before the fight to get it off the market was finally won.

>

> Rezulin was designed to stimulate the uptake of glucose from the

> bloodstream by the peripheral cells and to inhibit the normal

> secretion of glucose by the liver. The politics of why this drug ever

> came to market and then remained in the market for such an

> unexplainable length of time with regulatory agency approval is not

> clear. [20] As of April 2000 law suits commenced to clarify this

> situation [21]

>

> Today insulin is prescribed for both the Type I and Type II

> diabetics. Injectable insulin substitutes for the insulin that the

>

> Of course, this treatment, while necessary to preserving life for the

> Type I diabetic, is highly questionable when applied to the Type II

>

> None of these medical strategies are designed to normalize the
