Diabetes help ??

[Guest guest]

Does anyone have any suggestions for losing weight and keeping blood

sugar low? I have tried a few things, but they were a waste of money

(coconut oil ?, some type of amino acid pill, etc.).

the cure is to eat foods that have enzymes they will help you lose all

the weight you care to. learn about the foods that contain enzymes and

eat only the food that contains enzymes the weight will be easy to

lose. i did it and lost 52 lb and looked better and felt great and had

lots of energy and it wasnt hard at all to do give it try it works and

you will be glad you did and every one will ask how you lost the weight

it took me seven months to lose

52lb

Get Henry Bieler's book, " Food is your best medicine " read the

paragraph on Diabetes on page 169. Here's what he says:

" In treating adult diabetics I have been able to control sugar in the

urine by diet alone....I place the patient on a cleaner diet. The

most valuable regime for the diabetic is a vegetable diet-cooked,

non-starchy vegetables and vegetable soups. My aim is to aid the

depleted pancreas, whose chief chemical element is a

potassium-compound. So the potassium rich vegetables are of special

value. If the potassium level can be built up, this not only rebuilds

the pancreas but neutralizes a great deal of the acidity which is

always in the background in diabetes.

 

The best way to handle a diabetic case, I have found, is to take him

off insulin and to put him to bed. If the patient will not accept

this and the rather rigorous diet, then I am powerless to help. The

diet consists of lightly cooked non-starchy vegetables, like celery,

parsley, zucchini and string beans, liquified in a blender and used as

a soup. The patient remains on this until the urine becomes sugar-free

by test. He stays in bed to conserve his energy in order to give the

liver and the pancreas every possible chance to do their work

unmolested from the acids of exertion. It may take from one day to

four days or more to get the patient sugar-free.

 

He is allowed then to resume his normal activities while following a

fairly careful diet; he is watched to see how long it takes to develop

sugar again. When this happens, he is once again " fasted " in bed on

the vegetable soup. Generally then it takes half the length of time to

get him sugar-free. What I work for is an ideal diet for his

particular case which will maintain him sugar-free and still give him

enough energy to do a cerain amount of work. "

 

More information on diabetes from another book:

" The biggest culprit seems to be polyunsaturated oil. Studies have

shown that when polyunsaturated fats from the diet are incorporated

into cellular structure, the cell's ability to bind with insulin

decreases, thus lowering their ability to get glucose. In other

words, the cell membrane which allows glucose to enter into the cell

degrade when too much polyunsaturated oil is consumed in the diet.

Insulin is then unable to get to cells. Polyunsaturated oils are

easily oxidized and damaged by free radicals. Fats of all types,

including polyunsaturated fats in the cell membrane can adversely

affect the cell's function, including its ability to allow hormones,

gluecose, and other substances to flow in and out of the cell.

Therefore, a diet high in refined polyunsaturated vegetable oils

promotes diabetes. Most oils used to cook animals' dry and canned

foods are polyunsaturated vegetable oils.

 

The only fat that diabetics can eat without fear is coconut oil. Not

only does it not contribute to diabetes, but it helps regulate blood

sugar, thus lessening the effects of the disease. Research has shown

that coconut oil improve insulin secretion and utilization of blood

glucose. Coconut oil added to a diet enhances insulin action and

improves binding affinity compared to other oils.

 

One of the consequences of diabetis is a lack of energy. This is due

to the inability of cells to get needed glucose. Without the glucose

to power cellular activity, metabolism slows down and the entire body

becomes tired. Coconut oil raises metabolic rate causing the body to

burn up more calories and thus it also promotes weight loss. "

 

In short, you have to do a 100% lifesytle change. You need to do what

Bieler said in his book for a few days and test your sugar level after

that.

You may want to use cinnamon powder or sticks with

dried mulberry leaves steeped as tea. Take after each

meal. But of course, you have to take the diabetic

diet. No carbs if possible and definitely no sugar.

Fenugreek also is a potent diabetic remedy, but one

has to be careful as this can really drop your blood

sugar.

Kenn,

 

I do know so. I tried it myself when i learened that

fenugreek was effective in bringing down blood

glucose. However, i found it too strong, got

hypoglycemia and needed to drink a lot of orange juice

til my glucose was stabilized.

 

I normally take moringa tea (from frozen leaves) with

cinnamon sticks and mulberry leaves. I dropped the

mulberry leaves as it made my stomach acidic. I now

just take moringa oleifera tea with cinnamon sticks

and add cayenne pepper (for overall good health). I

take this at least four times a day. My blood glucose

is now stabilized. However, when i can't resist

sweets, then i add a pinch of fenugreek to my

tea...just a pinch and i actually feel my blood sugar

coming down but to a safe level.

 

Moringa oleifera frozen leaves may be purchased from

Filipino stores or Asian/Chinese Groceries. It is

called drumstick/malunggay/horseradish leaves.

Hi, my other half is diabetic, I got him started on coconut oil, he felt so

much better, then I got Dr. Bernsteins book on diabetes, he recommends no

sugars, as in no carbs also and that you can control you BS levels and keep

them level even when you eat if you follow his plan.

 

 

 

Even following it loosely helps a lot and then I did research on whey. I

had originally been looking for a high protein, low cal light fruity drink

vs a heavy milky smoothie something for myself to help maintain my weight,

it has been great for both of us..

 

 

 

You can get a lot of different wheys at health food stores or the Vitamin

Shoppe, they seem to have the best selection of the low cal ones, many of

the ones you see are for body builders and bulking up and are high in

calories.

 

 

 

I also found an unflavored one so I could then add it to anything including

my morning coffee. A 2 lb container will be anywhere from 30 - 40 dollars.

 

 

 

Because it is a high protein it helps your body burn long, low and slow and

stops the peaks and valleys, it also will and can replace a good amount of

food and when used between meals will more than satisfy you.

 

 

 

The protein helps keep your metabolism working longer and hence you will

burn more calories and less fat will be stored.

 

 

 

He has lost 20 - 23 lbs in 3 months, he is down around 196 now.

 

 

 

The coconut oil also helps, but we have found it harder to incorporate by

following Bernsteins diet since we have cut out almost all breads, crackers

etc, he does have a piece of light wheat toast in the morning and we really

slaver on the coconut oil, it also helps with metabolism is an anti-fungal

anti-viral oil and has many other health benefits, there is a coconut oil

forum here on . I massage the oil on his legs and feet, helps keep

things nice and healthy and the massage helps keep circulation well.

 

 

 

BUT you must buy a no heat virgin, un-refined oil, it should run you 20-25

dollars for 54 oz's.

Sealady,

Please look into using undenatured whey. Google Duncan Crow also.

duncan's site has recommendations for the brands. He has lot of stuff

on whey and its benefits.

He is active on coconutoil and candidiasis .
