Reversing Diabetes Naturally

Can you reverse diabetes naturally.  Yes! according to these articles

Reversing diabetes in 30 days or less

From Dr. Joseph Mercola remission of diabetes possible with diet and exercise


  • Severely limit or eliminate sugar and grains in your diet, especially fructose which is far more detrimental than any other type of sugar. Following my Nutrition Plan will help you do this without too much fuss.
  • Exercise regularly. Exercise is an absolutely essential factor, and without it, you're unlikely to get this devastating disease under control. It is one of the fastest and most powerful ways to lower your insulin and leptin resistance. If you're unsure of how to get started, I recommend reviewing my Peak Fitness program for tips and guidelines.
  • Avoid trans fats.
  • Get plenty of omega-3 fats from a high quality, animal-based source, such as krill oil.
  • Optimize your vitamin D levels. Recent studies have revealed that getting enough vitamin D can have a powerful effect on normalizing your blood pressure and that low vitamin D levels may increase your risk of heart disease.
  • Optimize your gut flora. Your gut is a living ecosystem, full of both good bacteria and bad. Multiple studies have shown that obese people have different intestinal bacteria than lean people. The more good bacteria you have, the stronger your immune system will be and the better your body will function overall. Fortunately, optimizing your gut flora is relatively easy. You can reseed your body with good bacteria by eating fermented foods (such as fermented vegetables, natto, raw organic cheese, or raw milk kefir) or by taking a high-quality probiotic supplement.
  • Address any underlying emotional issues and/or stress. Non-invasive tools like the Emotional Freedom Technique can be helpful and effective.
  • Get enough high-quality sleep every night.
  • Monitor your fasting insulin level. This is every bit as important as your fasting blood sugar. You'll want your fasting insulin level to be between 2 and 4. The higher your level, the worse your insulin sensitivity is.

What really causes heart disease and plaquesand sudden death?

Live healthy and long

From Mercola articles

According to this article, it is not cholesterol per se. This is according to Dr. Fred Kummerow, who is now 100 years old in his book, Cholestero is not the Culprit.  Increase consumption of transfat and processed cholesterol are.  Transfat lead to reduction of the bodies ability to produce transcyclin which keeps the blood flowing.  And this leads to sudden death.

Processing leads to processing of cholesterol like frying eggs or frying powdered egg.

The best alternative therefore is to avoid processed food.

Also avoid sugar.

Here is the full article.

Dr Mercola being Accused of Lying, Because I Told You the Truth

From Dr Mercola archives | September 18, 2013


                   


 From OpEd news: pharmas continue to endanger life of many.  Did they contribute millions to the Obama campaign?

This has been expected that as Dr. Mercola writes many truths on vaccines, the Big Pharma companies will use their resources to silence the site of Dr. Mercola.  Truth will be silenced as vaccines are big money no matter what. The mindset that vaccines are good for the health of all and disease prevention  will be promoted.

Dr Mercola says that big pharmas are issuing veiled threats and even used the influence of UNICEF to gang up on him and his site, without addressing the health issues of vaccines that have been published.  Mercola lists down what wrong things these big pharmas have done so far, like being fined for various violations, frauds, briber, cover ups,  in USA and even in China.

Why is health care cost so high in US, and also acting up in the PHL too?

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archive | August 14, 2013

A heart surgery costs about $1 583 or 95,000 rupees (the Indian currency is on verge of devaluation so it could be even lower) in India and about ten times as much in USA, eg. Cleveland Clinic $106, 385.  Efforts are underway to reduce the price some more in India to about $800 within the decade to make the procedure to most of the Indians who live on less than $2 a day.  (There is the Aravind hospital in India which does a cataract surgery for only $5!!)  Everything could be reduced including supplies and drapes which could be a model for developing countries.

In the US though, every thing is about opportunistic pricing (maximizing because of health care system?) According to Dr. Devi Shetty

This gave rise to medical tourism and prices in other countries, even with the hotel and air travel are much lower than in the US.  Such countries include Thailand, Taiwan and India.  However such travel are risky because of superbugs in such countries, and other risks associated with travel.

Steven Brill of Time Magazine did an investigative piece on US health care cost which are sometimes shocking!  Costs/prices could be staggering. Profit motive, profit maximization.  Health care costs in US total are the health care costs of top ten countries after it;  yet longevity in US is at the tail end.

They also have many unnecessary procedures.

Health care should be more classified as a social business.  And the largest hospitals in the PHL, the big four, Makati Med, TMC, Cardinal, and St. Lukes (two are owned by MVP) are on profit maximization, opportunity pricing trajectory like US (vs the income levels of Filipinos)

If I were given longer life and have more business opportunities, I will have health care facilities patterned after India.









Drinking caffeinated black coffee reduces suicide risks in adults - study

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archives | August 21, 2013

A meta study involving 280,000 coffee drinkers show that coffee drink (2 to 4 cups a day) reduces suicide risk by 50%.  Drinking coffee induces the production of serotonin, dopamine noradrenaline, and Brain Derived Neutropic Factor (BNDF) which induces the production of more neurons

Low level of low BNDF causes depression while neurogenesis induced by BNDF has an antidepressant effect.

To get most effect from coffee drinking drink it black without creamer or sugar. And go for organic pesticide - free coffee

Do Omega 3 fatty acids raise the risk of prostate cancer?

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archives | July 31, 2013

Dr. Mercola has long advocated the taking of Omega 3 for many ailments.  And yet reccently headlines blared the possible danger of Omega 3 for prostate cancer developments.<tumorigeneric?>  These scary news came out of Science Daily, Huffington Post, Time, Nursing Times, and Time Magazine.  The news was based on a finding published last July 10 at the Journal of National Cancer Institute

It was pointed out though that none of the subjects took Omega 3 during the time of treatment/or study,  The higher DHA level was equated with taking Omega 3 supplements.  There is a criticism vs. Dr. Alan Cristy by Dr. Bowden in a Huffington Post rebuttal that the conclusion by Dr. Cristy was related to his strong anti nutrional supplement bias.

It was conveniently not mentioned/ignored that the subjects:   smoked, took alcohol, and were obese:  other cancer triggering factors.

What is more addictive than cocaine?

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archives | July 18, 2013

Yes what is more addictive than cocaine.

It is refined sugar.

Using magnetic imaging of the brain, researchers confirmed highly processed carbs stimulate brain center involved in reward and craving, resulting in excess hunger.

The study which was published in  American Journal of Nutrition subjected men between ages of 18 to 35 to functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging.  And the subjects were fed high and low GI food.  The high GI diet initially resulted spiked the blood sugar level and then crashed which stimulated the brain center called nucleus accumbens the brain center for addictive behavior.

Thus if you consume an amount of sugar,your reach a level of tolerance, in which you are not pleased anymore, thus you have to consume more to reach the same level of taste.  This is according to Dr. Robert Lustig.  It is interesting to note that sugar is top ingredient in many processed food products in US like Prego, as spaghetti sauce.

Thus, this consuming passion to eat causes obesity.  Obesity is now a disease in USA.

Food manufacturers have mastered the art of adding the right amount of sugar to reach the point of bliss.  And they have mastered other taste as saltiness, sweetness -  the science of addictive eating.

Dr. Mercola recommends avoiding plenty or processed food and sugary items.  Instead he recommends exercise and drinking black coffee.  The latter can reduce addiction to this cause of obesity

How to make yourself mosquito proof?

Live healthy and long

From Dr. Mercola archive | July 22, 2013

Summer in USA means tick and mosquito bite.  In the PHL, is is mosquito season all year round.

How do you fend off mosquiitos - the most lethal animal on earth -  even more lethal than suicide bombers, plane and auto crashes.?

Well the first to avoid is DEET - which is found to have harmful effects.

Your other options include

l. Spraying with citronella oil. Citronella grass is plentiful in PHL and I planted several in my yard. Are the mosquitoes less in my house (I think so)

2.  Cinnamon oil leaf (for killing mosquitoes)

3.  Clear vanilla extract with olive oil

4.  Catnip oil

For reducing itchiness and swelling from  insect bites, you can use the following:

l.  hot and cold compress

2.  cucumbers

3.  aloe vera

4.  basil

5.  peppermint

I have the 5.  Fortunately, I think there is not much mosquito near our house despite breeding ground for mosquitoes

l.  It is highly efficient;

2.  You develop flexibilty

3.  You develop core strength.

4.  Both cardiovascular and strength training.

Soda drink may actually trigger cravings, weight gain and even leukemia - Dr. Mercola.com

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola.com archive | July 24, 2013

Despite repeated advertising claims, diet soda (I used to drink plenty of Zero and Mega drinks) with aspartame actually cause cravings, weight gain, obesity and even diabetes.

In a Journal entitled Appetite  aspartame and saccharine caused more weight gain than sucrose.

As for the link between cancer and aspartame and cancer, aspartame has been found to induce cancer of the liver in male rats.  In a longest study between cancer and other causes, aspartame has been linked to Hodgkin's lymphoma and leukemia.  The study came out in 2012

For splenda (sucrolose), the rating for splenda (I shifted to splenda from aspartame) has been downgraded from safe to caution

Do not deprive yourself of this, or else you have 2.5x risk of getting inflammation and heart disease

Live healthy and long

From Dr. Mercola archives | June 27, 2013

About 41 million Americans sleep less than 6 hours a day and run the risk of having chronic inflammation and heart disease (inflammation causes constriction of blood vessels) and poor circulation.   2.5x more than those who dont. 

Sleeping late has the following disadvantage:

l.  Poor memory;

2.  Weakened immune system

3.  Accelerate tumor growth;

4.  Causes pre diabetic stage

Avoid sleeping pills though because they cause amnesia and risk of dying.

Sleep is the result of interaction between sleepiness  and noise.  If noise is greater than sleepiness you cannot sleep:

Tips for getting enough sleep:

l.  Have  a sleep sanctuary.  maintain temp between 60 -80 degrees F.

2.  Stop using gadgets before going to bed.

3.  Exercise before going to bed

4.  Alcohol tends to prevent good good night sleep

This drug nullifies the value of exercise for good health

Live healthy and long

From Dr. Mercola archives  |  June 7, 2013

Taking statins nullifies the value of exercise, one of the cornerstone of good health.  Those taking statins increased their aerobic capacity by mere 1.5 per cent or even decreased it at the end of 12 week period and even decreased mitochondrial content (used for energy production) by 4.5 %

Those who did not take statins on the other hand:   increased fitness by 10 per cent and mitochondrial content by 13%.  I was foolish enough not to follow the doctor who prescribed statin for an elevated cholesterol level.

I just biked and it was good enough to reduce cholesterol, uric acid and bs level

Exercise - Yoga and Strength Training good for aging people

Live healthy and long

From Dr. Mercola fitness | May 17 2013

Many senior Americans do not get enough exercise (or visit the gym)

I met a senior citizen today who said he is joining a triathlon.  I cant now.  I hate the swimming part.  But I can do the bike and the running part.

The seniors can do strength training, high intensity interval training or engage in yoga.

Benefits of exercise are:

l. Improved sleep;

2.  Preventing falls and fractures;

3.  Improved mood and mental health;

4.  Reducing risk of medical condition as heart disease, dementia, Type 2 diabetes depression, cancer and other types of premature death

It is never too late to exercise.  I have seen plenty of senior citizen and converse with them, over 60 who can still bike up Antipolo and are very strong (ehem like me)

The hygiene hypotheses of health - being too clean does not strengthen immune system

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archives   | May 13, 2013

Being too clean does not strengthen the body's immune system  Exposure to germs help your immune system develop antibodies to fight diseases.  Studies suggest that over hygiene diseases have doubled over the years.  Such diseases include allergies, asthma, eczema, heart disease.

Thus too much dirty dirty talk to infants make them succeptible to infections and diseases.

I learned of one such treatment for asthma (after observing incidence of asthma in city dweller children and those who live in rural areas -  there was less incidence in rural areas) is putting ascaris eggs subcutaneously in asthma victims (yuck) and the children improved.

Will you allow such treatment for your baby?

Health benefits of mushrooms - cheap cures

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archives | May 13, 2013

Fungus, or its visible manifestation, mushroom are one of the most potent natural cures in the planet.  They are more closely related to humans in terms of same pathogens;  note that the source of many anti infectives:   penicillin, tetracyclines,  and streptomycin are from fungus.

Health benefits of mushroom:

1.  Weight loss
2.  Better nutrition
3.  Better immune system
4.  Improved Vit D. levels

Cordyceps, also known as caterpillar fungus, or tochukasu, is favorite among athletes because it increases ATP production (part of molecular body chemistry) contributes to strength and endurance and anti aging.  Cordyceps is unlike other fungus because it grows out of body of insects.  Cordycepin, an extract of cordyceps is known to have anti cancer/tumor properties and is also useful for asthma, renal failure, stroke and rheumatoid arthritis.

There are poisonous and toxic variety though. So be careful

Other beneficial mushrooms are:

1.  Shitake  (Lentinula edodes)

2   Reishi  (Ganoderma lucidum)

3.  Turkey tail  (Trametes versicolor) The most researched mushroom.  It contains two polysacharides:    PSK and PSP and is known to be effective vs Stage 3 breast cancer, HIV, AIDS, Candida albicans E.coli,  and Strep pneumonia.

4.  Himematsutake  (Agaricus blazei)  has remarkable anti cancer properties;  contains 6 polysaccharides;  decrease insulin resistance in diabetics, treat polio, improve hair and skin, normalize cholesterol

Avoid pesticide inffested foods

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr. Mercola archives  May 8, 2013

The article merely stresses why organic foods are better and safer.  Most vegetables and fruits are pesticide laden. I had student before from Baguio who washed Mt. Province vegies sold at Baguio City market. She said her fingers and hand were burned as a result of this operatios meaning to say that vegies in Baguio have plenty of pesticide.

Meaning that you can eat plenty of vegies  -  the 5 fruits and 5 vegies as prescribed and still have the big C.   Because of the pesticide.

Which vegies have most pesticides?

Apples Celery Cherry tomatoes
Cucumbers Grapes Hot peppers
Nectarines (imported) Peaches Potatoes
Spinach Strawberries Sweet bell peppers
Kale Collard greens Summer squash

Which one have least (still with pesticides though) toxins?


Asparagus Avocado Cabbage
Cantaloupe Sweet corn (non-GMO) Eggplant
Grapefruit Kiwi Mango
Mushrooms Onions Papayas (non-GMO. Most Hawaiian papaya is GMO)
Pineapple Sweet peas (frozen) Sweet potatoes

Physical therapy is as good as Knee surgery 


    Some 510,000 people undergo arthroscopic knee surgery as treatment for arthritis and at 5,000 to 7,000 dollars that add up.  And this may be unnecesary because they are no better than placebo.  Some treatments include Physical Therapy, exercise, sulfur, asthaxanthin, Vit D., omega 3,egg cell membrane,  hyalorunic acid, turmeric, and curcumin.  The use of glucosamine and chondritin has been found not to provide significant relief.  Use of NSAID, and analgesics have been found to be risky.  I know of a gouty arthritis patient who was operated on bleeding stomach because of too much analgesic intake.
