Causes of Diabetes
Today, most people with diabetes are only treating the
symptoms and not getting to the root of the problem.
But worse, many medications given to diabetics are
actually compounding the problems.
The best
way to manage your diabetic condition is to address
the actual cause of it... not just the symptoms.
Doesn't that make more sense? Let's look at what
type 2 diabetes really is.
Diabetes...
A Simple Explanation.
Other than
the genes you inherited, there are two primary causes
of diabetes:
1) a
long-term diet that has been high in carbohydrates and
2) nutritional deficiencies.
Your
body breaks down carbohydrates into sugar (glucose)
which then enters your blood stream. The more
carbohydrates you eat, the higher your blood sugar
goes. In response, your body produces insulin. Insulin's
job is to push the blood sugar into the cells.
On
the surface of the cells in your body are insulin
receptors, which act like little doors that open and
close to regulate the inflow of blood sugar.
After
many years of consuming a high-carbohydrate diet, your
cells have been bombarded with so much insulin that
these doors begin to malfunction and shut down.
With
less doors open, your body needs to produce even more
insulin to push the glucose into the cells. More
insulin causes even more doors to close and as this
vicious cycle continues, a condition called "insulin
resistance" sets in.
The
insulin resistance can get so bad that your body can
no longer produce enough insulin to push the blood
sugar into the cells. The blood sugar then rises out
of control resulting in type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is
simply an extreme case of insulin resistance.
The
key point for you to understand is that your energy,
wellness and longevity are primarily dependent on
improving the sensitivity of your cells to insulin -
how well your cells open and close the doors and clear
sugar from the blood.
What's
the Bottom line?
Since
type 2 diabetes is really a severe case of insulin
resistance, the solution to your condition is to
find a way to increase the sensitivity of your cells
to insulin and help your body get the sugar out of the
blood and into the cells so it can be metabolized and
turned into energy. (This inability to metabolize
sugar is one of the reasons why most diabetics often
feel tired and fatigued.)
The
Deadly Effects of Excess Insulin!
Your
"metabolism" is the food processing and
energy production system of your body. It is made up
of extremely fine-tuned internal processes.
Insulin
is the master hormone of your metabolism. When it is
out of balance and your insulin levels are
consistently elevated, a long list of deadly
complications are created:
*
Heart Disease
* Hardening of the Arteries
* Damage to Artery Walls
* Increased Cholesterol Levels
*
Vitamin & Mineral Deficiencies
* Kidney Disease
* Fat Burning Mechanism Turned Off
* Accumulation & Storage of Fat
* Weight Gain
In his best-selling book Protein Power, Dr.
Michael Eades wrote,
"When
insulin levels become too high... metabolic havoc
ensues with elevated blood pressure, elevated
cholesterol and triglycerides, diabetes, and obesity
all trailing in its wake. These disorders are merely symptoms
of a single more basic disturbance in metabolism,
excess insulin and insulin resistance."
Nutritional
Deficiencies from excess insulin.
Science
has shown that excess insulin also causes your body to
become deficient in many vitamins, minerals and other
nutrients. It's a proven fact that being deficient in
these nutrients is directly linked to and a cause of
high blood sugar levels.
The
importance of Chromium
Chromium
is essential to proper metabolism and maintaining safe
sugar levels. Excess insulin depletes your
body's chromium. In Protein Power, Dr.
Eades further states,
"The
insulin receptor, the structure on the surfaces of
your cells that actually become resistant to insulin,
requires chromium to function properly. Deficiency of
chromium is rampant - it affects 90% of the American
population - because a diet high in starch and sugar
puts a heavy demand on the insulin system to handle
the incoming carbohydrate load, and that demand
depletes chromium."
Chromium
is critical to blood sugar metabolism and as a
diabetic you can be pretty sure that you are severely
deficient in this nutrient. If you ever wondered where
your "sweet tooth" and sugar cravings come
from, now you know - chromium deficiency!

Now
that you know how and why people develop type 2
diabetes and know
some of the consequences of not controlling your blood
sugar level,
here
are your choices:
Fortunately,
your body has miraculous healing powers, is very
resilient and operates in a very intelligent manner.
If you give it the right fuel and the right nutrients,
it will respond very quickly. Some exercise and the
right attitude also help!
The
first step is to switch your body from an
out-of-control, nutrient-depleting and fat-storing
machine into a clean, nutrient-rich, fat-burning
machine.
To
do this you must must:
-
Restrict
the carbohydrates in your diet and
-
Take
the right nutritional supplements (see
below).
These
two actions are not optional or negotiable!
Your body will only burn fat (and properly utilize
nutrients) if its metabolism is balanced. Doing 1
and 2 above on a regular basis is the only way to
address the root cause of your diabetic problem and
balance your body's metabolism for the long-term.
