When we, the cousins, were young our parents did not hide anything from us. We all knew what to expect and how to deal with diabetes. It is not fun to grow up this way. Yet, the knowledge has helped me through the years and it has formed a bond and connection to my larger family.
I take issue with he authorities in the medical community. The doctors still do not have an idea how this condition (not a disease) works. Or how to treat the cause. What is treated are the effects that are manifested.
I use a medicine as a basal (BASE) dose that should keep my blood sugars at a steady level all day. It actually does this. However, and this is a huge issue, I have no energy or libido from the use of this medicine. this is the third medicine as a basal dose that I have used. the first two cause me to have low energy. One had the effect of fluid in my joints and a large loss of flexibility. All of the medicines work for what they were intended for. All of them have side effects that cause the harm of a reduced lifestyle and quality of life.
The worst drug was Bayetta. The active ingredient is formed from Gila Monster saliva that is a poison. The idea was to slightly poison the system and the person will not eat as much. This Dr.Mengela approach to life and health did my health little good and much harm. I do not want to bore a new group of people with my story. If you want email me and I will give a long sad story. Do not use Bayetta.
Take control of your health. There is a good book about food and nutrition that everyone should read. it is the book, The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals. The book was written by Michael Pollan. We, America and the West, are dying from a lack on nutritional food in our diet. We have food, we have huge mounds of food. It is the poor quality of the food and how it is prepared or processed or chemically treated that is the issue. The level of actual nutrients in our food is declining. We eat more as we slowly starve to death.
And that is the issue of diabetes: People who eat and yet they are starving to death. Food, nutrients, cannot enter the system well if at all under diabetes.
What I have done is to use juicing as an alternative to actual solid food. Get the veggies and some fruits to a mixture the same consistency as blood and the mixture will enter the body from the stomach strait into the body. This is not a cure it is a means to get the best level of nutrients into the body to raise the level of health, energy and immunity to where I can function like a normal person.
If you have diabetes be careful and do not accept what is given. Maintain your own health. Eat well and if you have problems walking just sit outside and get some sun.
Do your own work. Be Healthy
