Lifestyle Changes Cut Diabetes Risk in Half

Lifestyle Changes Cut Diabetes Risk in Half

I am going to repeat myself again, but the main thing with DM 2 is insulin resistance. This is secondary to America's obession with carbs. Most take in more carbs in relation to protein and fats. Which are very important when it comes to the physiology of the body. Any time you overload on carbs, many things start to happen: your pancreas works over time, as well as the liver, you have fluctuations of insulin and blood sugar levels, your cortisol levels go up/down and eventually stay up and so forth. The main trigger is that your body starts to store sugar in your muscles and most do not exercise enough. So when the muscles stores are filled, the next place is to let if "free flow" in the blood. The end result is that your body cannot handle the blood glucose levels, as well as all the carbs/sugar coming in. You end up with pancreatic insulemia and insulin resistance. Your body cannot keep up and you are now unable to decrease blood sugar levels becuase your body is insulin resistant.

As well, as I have said before, insulin is the KEY that opens the doors of the receptor sites to store fat. So, most, not all type 2 diabetics are skinny, but have guts. This is one of the signs of being insulin resistant. Some great principles to follow are:
# Your are what you eat and when you eat
# Get to bed by 10 and rise no earlier than 6 a.m. (physical repair is between 10pm-2am and mental repair is between 2am-6am)
# Drink ½ your body weight in ounces of water per day
# If it wasn’t here 10,000 years ago, don’t eat it
# If it has a shelf life than it is a nonfood and should not be eaten (it takes more energy for you to metabolize and assimilate a nonfood than that food actually provides you with)
# If it is white, don't eat it (salt, sugar, flour, pasteurized milk)
# If it is clear, don't eat it (jello's, juice, etc). Bacteria grows around it and most clear fluids are sugar water.
# If you are not eating for your metabolic type, it is like putting unleaded gas in a diesel engine
# If you can't eat it, don't wear it! (www.eastwest.younglivingworld.com)
# Stay away from or eating food from microwaves!
