| "In some cases, the bay leaf effect can extend by months the amount of time diabetics can avoid insulin shots or it can minimize their reliance on insulin shots.
Bay leaf tea can be made by steeping several bay leaves in hot water. Two to three cups a day is the suggested dosage. A less-effective alternative is to add the leaves to sauces (such as pasta sauce) or soups.
Caution: Never eat bay leaves directly, as they can be poisonous. And don't rely on this or any other alternative treatment to replace prescribed medications for diabetes, a serious condition in any stage." - Bottom Line Books, Uncommon Cures For Everyday Ailments (Get the book.) |
 "Likewise, if you take diabetes pills or give yourself insulin shots, dizziness may indicate your blood sugar level has dropped naturally. In either case, talk to your doctor about lowering your dose and the feeling will go away. Remarkably, some of life's little annoyances seem to have abated.

"Ask any diabetic who has to take insulin shots what she should do when she has an attack of low blood sugar. That's right, drink OJ. It, or any fruit juice for that matter, will raise your blood sugar so fast and so high that I couldn't put a tourniquet around your arm, find a vein, and inject 50 percent dextrose into you any faster.

 "For those who have type 2 diabetes, or "adult-onset diabetes" (about 90% of those with diabetes; 10% have type 1 or gestational), insulin shots are not necessarily required for treatment. Ten million Americans have impaired glucose tolerance, putting them at risk for the development of type 2 diabetes. From 2000 to 2010 the prevalence of type 2 diabetes is projected to increase by 46%, from 151 million to 221 million worldwide. And calling the disease "adult-onset" is fast becoming a misnomer, since more and more children and young adults are being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes each year."- J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.) "It is an immune-system disorder that is related to an insulin deficiency caused by an autoimmune attack on pancreatic (3-cell islets; treatment with daily insulin shots is required. Type 1 diabetes is a condition that needs to be treated for life, and at this time it is not preventable. However, it is actually fairly uncommon: Only 10% of people who have diabetes have type 1." - J.

 "I recall Grandma took insulin shots in her later years. So I must have low insulin, too."
"Not necessarily. Since your blood sugar problem—and your mother's and grandmother's, too—came on after age 55, it's likely that you have 'type 2' diabetes. In type 2, insulin levels are often too high, and go up much more rapidly in response to sugar and carbohydrate intake."
"So if there's too much insulin, how come the sugar's high, too?"
"The insulin's not being used properly by the cell membranes, so the insulin can't take the sugar from the blood into the cells as it's supposed to."- Jonathan V. Wright, M.D. and Alan R. Gaby, M.D., Natural Medicine, Optimal Wellness: The Patient's Guide to Health and Healing (Get the book.) |
 "After eight weeks at home, his need for insulin shots vanished." Chart 7.2 shows a sample of patients and how eating a plant-based diet lowered their insulin medications. This is a huge effect.
In another study of fourteen lean diabetic patients, Anderson found that diet alone could lower total cholesterol levels by 32% in just over two weeks.16 Some of the results are shown in Chart 7.3.
These benefits, representing a decrease in blood cholesterol from 206 mg/dL to 141 mg/dL, are astounding—especially considering the speed with which they appear. Dr."- T.

| "Inhaled Insulin Has Drawbacks
Exubera requires carrying a device the size of a flashlight, plus foil-wrapped insulin packets. insulin shots are less cumbersome, quicker and virtually painless.
Other drawbacks: Long-term effects on the lungs are unknown...inhaled insulin often still requires a patient to take one or two injections of long-acting insulin each day.. .insurance coverage is uncertain.

 "USA Today told readers that Rezulin "may reduce or eliminate the need for insulin shots for nearly 1 million diabetics . . . The drug is taken orally and will help some Type II diabetics control blood sugar levels. Of the patients who can take Rezulin, 15% might be able stop insulin shots, officials said."
When potential side effects were even mentioned, they were dismissed as inconsequential. The Copley News Service called them "quite mild."- Donald L. Barlett and James B. Steele, Critical Condition: How Health Care in America Became Big Business (Get the book.) |
 "Rather than simply applying as a me-too drug for treatment of type 2 diabetes, Parke-Davis emphasized that the drug was needed for people who wanted to take fewer insulin shots.
There was something else going on in regulatory affairs. In the FDA advisory committee meeting for Rezulin, for example, company reps presented unclear safety data about liver complications, then promised to submit clarifying data if the drug was approved. It was, but they didn't. For reasons never completely explained, the FDA accepted the promise for future data and then signed off on Rezulin."- Greg Critser, Generation Rx: How Prescription Drugs are Altering American Lives, Minds, and Bodies (Get the book.) |
| "None of his fifty patients were overweight and all of them were taking insulin shots to control their blood sugar levels.
His experimental diet consisted mostly of whole plant foods and the equivalent of only a cold cut or two of meat a day. He put his patients on the conservative, American-style diet recommended by the American
Diabetes Association for one week and then switched them over to the experimental "veggie" diet for three weeks. He measured their blood sugar levels, cholesterol levels, weight and medication requirements. The results were impressive." - T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D. and Thomas M.

| "The doctor said these days as long as the fasring sugar isn't over 200, they usually don't prescribe pills or insulin shots, just go to some diabetes classes if I want, and try to lose some weight, that would probably help. I've always had a problem with that, same as Momma and Grandmomma, too.
"Have you started a diet program?"
"No, that's partly why I'm here. My oldest daughter, LaDonna, she's changed into a regular health nut since she started having her children, she's got 3 now." - Jonathan V. Wright, M.D. and Alan R.

 "However, without investigating and rectifying what has put the body into this awkward position in the first place, merely administering insulin shots to the patient to enforce a lower blood sugar does not only not solve the problem, but, as we will see, makes it worse. This quick-fix approach actually makes a true cure impossible and, at the same time, increases the risk of developing many other ailments.
It is now known to be a fact (again) that diabetics suffering from either type have an increased risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, blindness and Alzheimer's disease, etc."- Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.) "And as surprising as it may be, a healthy person who receives insulin shots develops diabetes, which is not so uncommon, given the high percentage of false positive blood tests nowadays. "Once a diabetic, always a diabetic" is a sad consequence of medical intervention. But it doesn't have to be this way. For example, scientists at a Toronto hospital recently made a stunning discovery which could lead to a near-cure of Type 1 diabetes." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.) "Thus, a previously non-insulin-dependent diabetic now needs insulin shots, which greatly increases his health risks. This is completely unnecessary. I have had such insulin-dependent patients turn vegan, and within just six weeks become free of the main signs and symptoms of diabetes, for the first time in 20-30 years. Chronic disease is only chronic for as long as its causes are intact. Insulin injection is the very thing that keeps the patient from recovering." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.) |
| "He is ultimately prescribed daily insulin shots and other toxic pharmaceutical drugs as a "cure" while his life slowly begins to deteriorate. He continues this decline throughout his life until both of his feet are amputated as the final "treatment" for his diabetes. And to make matters worse, since childhood he was provided this DRUG by the people who loved him the most!
Although this is a harsh and sad story, it happens all too often." - Dr. Edward F. Group III, DC, ND, DACBN, Health Begins in the Colon (Get the book.) |
 "They don't lose their teeth, they don't have arthritis, they don't have diabetes, they don't need insulin shots, they don't have cancer, they don't have asthma, they don't have allergies, they are not constipated, they don't have insomnia, and they live to be an equivalent of about 180 years old. Interestingly enough, they go through their entire lives without taking any prescription or nonprescription drugs.
So is there a way that we as human beings can do some very simple and easy things that can keep us disease free, illness free and full of life, energy, and vitality?"- Kevin Trudeau, Natural Cures They Don't Want You to Know About (Get the book.) |

When potential side effects were even mentioned, they were dismissed as inconsequential. The Copley News Service called them "quite mild." The New York Times quoted an FDA official as saying that adverse effects "appeared to be rare and relatively mild, including infection, pain and headache." The only cautionary note was that "animal studies suggest that the drug should be prescribed with caution for patients with advanced heart failure or liver disease." - Donald L. Barlett and James B.

 "In December 2002, Mac Gober, Founder and President of Canaan Land Ministries, weighed 308 pounds and was taking heart and blood pressure medication as well as multiple insulin shots every day for his diabetes. He nearly died and was barely able to function. Starting the
Four Corners program at the recommendation of Dr. Don Colbert, Gober began by exclusively taking a whole meal super food shake instead of meals for 30 days. Then for two weeks he substituted two meals per day with the superfood and had one typical Four Corners meal per day."- KC Craichy, Super Health 7 Golden Keys to Unlock Lifelong Vitality (Get the book.) |
