The REAL Diabetic Diet
Actually, a NO-carb or carnivorous diet is the best way to handle Diabetes. In fact it cures type II immediately.
Now that I've found out I was at stage one of Type II Diabetes, I've been doing lots and lots of research on what to do to reverse this. "Reactive Hypoglycemia" or "insulin resistance" as it's usually called has been destroying me for 3-4 years now, without me actually realizing what it was.
2-3 hours after I'd eat, I'd feel seriously anxious and like I was going to pass out dead where I stood if I didn't eat something.
I've come to the conclusion, like the NY Times's article "What if it was all a big fat lie" that America has been misinformed and mislead for the last 30 years or so. Lots and lots of people are on "low-fat, low calorie" diets and yet obesity and type II diabetes are at record levels.
The ironic thing about the ADA, and all these "health" organizations is that they all have some form of vested interest in the drug companies. I'm not siding with Kevin Trudeau necessarily. Kevin Trudeau is a fraud and has been scamming people for years now. However he does make a couple of good points about the drug comapnies. Why should the drug companies want you to cure anything? If you take something and it cures whatever you have, the drug company isn't going to profit much. Drug companies, just like Fast Food chains, are worried about QUARTERLY PROFITS, NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE TELLS YOU.
I've experimented myself with "the other hypothesis", low-carb diets, and this is the only thing that has come along in the last 4 years that has even remotely addressed my blood sugar problem. However, there is a problem with this hypothesis. Think about it. If restricting carbohydrates causes our health to improve relative to the amount we ingest, would it not make sense (if we were able to survive without them) to completely cut them out? Would that not be optimal?
So, I am now cabohydrate free. I only eat meat. I do not eat vegetables, fruit, grains, sugar, bread, pasta, cereal, or anything related. The only thing I eat is meat. I do not eat organ meats for their high starch content either. All I eat is red meat, chicken or pork.
No matter what anyone tells you, fat is NOT the enemy. Insulin and carbohydrates ARE. I've tried that "low-fat" garbage twice in my life and replaced it with carbs. Both times my body became a fragile shell, and basically fell apart. I have pictures to prove it.
Low-fat diets are unhealthy. Fat is essential, and the U.S.
