Stopping 300,000 MT sugar importation a cure for diabetes?

Live healthy and long

The plan to import 300,000 metric tons of sugar, proposed to SRA chairman and  DA secretary PBBM was reported to have  been denied by Malacanang.

Surely there will be supply issues for both consumers and industrial users.   And much more this will deny sugar to many pre diabetics and diabetics.   The only way to lower BS is not to take any form of sugar.  Surely this supplty problem is a cure.  

We diabetics should be glad

Concerns raised on face to face classes, monkey pox, and dengue

Live healthy and long

Citizens have to face 3 fold concerns over 3 health issues:    face to face classes, monkey pox, and more cases of dengue.

1.  For covid 19, cases are rising and projected to be as high as 10,000 in October
2.  There is all ready a monkey pox case in the Philippines   Elsewhere in the world as in USA, there has been an increase in the number of cases
3.   An alarm has been raised over the increase in number of dengue and deaths from the said disease.  It seems to be reching an epidemic status

But #1 is sure is a great concern.  More infectious strains are spreading, And surely face to face classes are superspreader events.   While we try to revive the economy 10,000 cases per day is worrisome.   

In Japan and South Korea, there has been an upsurge in the number of cases.  In Jpan, it was as high as more than 100,000 cases per day.  

Rethinking on face to face classes at this point   The children are very vulnerable because most of them are  unvaccinated

Dr Neal Barnard - a nutrition approach towards diabetes; eliminate fat

Live healthy and long

Dr.  Barnard observed that the approach to diabetes has been to  reduce sugar intake since symptoms show too much sugar in the blood.  He however conducted a research that showed that the blood sugar cant enter the cells because of the block to the intramcellular portion of the cell and that is the presence of fat that prevents insulin from releasing blood sugard to the cellular level

Therefore the key to preventing and curing diabetes is lessening fat to cover the cells.  Thus a vegan approach to treating diabetes.

It was observed that patients who have lesser fatty diet completely reversed the diabetes.   For those who continue to be on same diet, the diabetes progressed.

'In Japan, where there is low incidence of diabetes, it was observed that diabetes incidence quickly increased due to export of fast food:    burgers and fried chicken.
