Simply put, diabetes is a defect in the body’s ability to convert glucose (sugar) into energy. Popular television cook Paula Deen’s recent announcement of her diabetes diagnosis generated ferocious debate, however, this widespread disease has likely affected you and your family on a very personal level. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) calls diabetes a “serious and growing public health concern.” In our view, diabetes is the single greatest health issue facing the United States today.

According to the American Diabetes Association, 25.8 million Americans have diabetes, and 79 million more have pre-diabetes, a condition that sets the stage for a diagnosis. And the CDC predicts that the rate of diabetes will triple (yes, triple) by 2050. This scourge is a major cause of heart disease, the #1 killer in America. Perhaps most alarming is that diabetes (Type 2 diabetes) is, in truth, a disease of choice and completely reversible with diet and lifestyle changes.

KC and Monica Craichy take the issue head on in this special SuperHealth Podcast.

LivingFuel HealthAlert: Reversing Diabetes and Controlling Blood Sugar

Diabetes and blood sugar conditions such as insulin resistance and hypoglycemia are commonplace in the discussion of health in modern society.  We are barraged by products, magazines, websites and books that attempt to teach how to “manage” or “live with” your diabetes as if it was something you owned or cared for.  We’ve long taught that Type 2 Diabetes (formerly known as adult-onset diabetes) is reversible with diet and lifestyle changes.  And these same changes can radically speed your journey to Super Health and to your optimal body weight.
 
Today on LivingFuelTV, Monica and I continue our special series on my new book The Super Health Diet: The Last Diet You Will Ever Need!  In The Super Health Diet, I explore the connection between blood sugar and weight optimization which we discuss today.  Discover how you can use strategies and tools from the diabetic “community” to help accelerate you to Super Health!

How You Can Reverse Diabetes Just by What You Eat

by Neal D. Barnard, MD

Cut calories and keep careful track of the fat, protein and carbohydrates (including sugar) you eat — those are the usual dietary recommendations for adults with type 2 diabetes (commonly referred to as adult-onset or non-insulin-dependent diabetes).

Trap: In my experience, many people who follow these recommendations still don’t reap the promised benefits — weight loss, reduced need for medication and fewer complications.

My approach is dramatically different — and it works. My research team and I conducted a series of studies with hundreds of patients, and we discovered that it is possible to improve blood-sugar levels through diet alone.

One Point Away From Being Diabetic

Type 2 diabetics and pre-diabetics are well-advised to eat a “low-glycemic diet.” That simply means you choose foods — and portion sizes — that prevent large spikes in your blood sugar levels. This not only helps prevent the progression of the disease but can actually help you get back to a non-diabetic state-especially when accompanied by needed weight loss.
