DIABETES AND US !
A man in his 30s was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. He was rich,respected had a loving family, the only thing he lacked in his life was his health.😣
Due to Diabetes his health had gone for a toss, during his life span he was admitted in the hospital for more than 20 times with heart, kidney, liver, eyesight damage and an amputated leg.
He spent plenty of money on medications and doctors.💊💊
He left the world at 60 cursing every moment of his life, saying he had everything but couldn't enjoy a single moment of his life and it all started because of Diabetes.💉💉
India has become the Diabetic capital of the world, more than 33% of Indian population are Diabetic.
what may be the reason that every 3rd person in India is a Diabetic??
You will be shocked to hear that its not our genetics, heredity or a sydentary lifestyle, but the root cause lies in the food we eat.
Yes you read it right its the food we eat...!!🍞🍔🍟🍕🌭🍿🎂🍨
Before getting into it, I would like to give you a brief Introduction on Diabetes.
Diabetes is a METABOLIC disorder in which our body looses its ability or becomes less efficient in using glucose,
with which the glucose in the blood doesn't get used by the cells instead keeps rising in the blood.
Normal physiological blood glucose levels range between 80-120mg/dl,
an average human has 5ltrs of blood in the body which means the normal glucose in the blood must be
approximately 5 grams.
But what we do is dump minimum of 80-100 grams of carbohydrates/Sugars in every meal in the form of rice,bread,chapati,roti,grains,table sugar and fruits.
All Carbohydrates are a form of sugar, when consumed gets converted into glucose instantly or without much delay.
So when we dump these foods in everymeal our blood glucose level shoots up, now a hormone known as Insulin produced by the Beta cells of Pancreas comes to rescue, manages the blood glucose levels and transports the excess into liver,muscles and fat cells.
🛑🛑 The problem starts when due to regular bombarding of Carbohydrates/Sugars, the cells become resistant to insulin with cell receptor damage or the Pancreas due to overwork of producing Insulin, and is no more capable of producing Insulin hormone in enough quantities or the insulin produced is not able to clear the blood sugar. This leads to diabetes in a person .
🙆♀️ what can be done to stay away from Diabetes?
Is it exercise,medications,doctors or something else?
😇The answer is again food, yes the right food...!!
Carbohydrates/Sugars like rice,chapati,roti,Bread,grains,table sugar and fruits when consumed get converted into glucose after digestion, which elevates the blood glucose levels rapidly, then a surge of Insulin hormone has to come and manage the blood glucose levels.
So what if we elimiante Carbohydrates/Sugars from our food list?
-Your question maybe, then what to eat?🤔
My answer- We will eat what we were meant to eat as humans.🤗
That is protein and Fat (ghee, butter, coconut oil, cheese, milk, yoghurt, paneer, chicken, red meat, fish and the list continues), and complete elimination of Carbohydratyes/Sugars, which you can call it as a low carb diet/lifestyle or a ketogenic diet/lifestyle.
Yes when we eliminate Carbohydrates/Sugars the blood glucose levels will not elevate so there will be no need of an Insulin spike to manage the blood glucose and
thus you can stay away from Diabetes or if already diagnosed help yourself from worsening out.
But what makes me completely helpless and angry is people instead of changing the food which is ruining them,they instead visit a doctor and purchase a list of medications
and start having it and keep worsening their body day by day.
To give you an analogy its like you are wounded you go to the doctor,the doctor dresses the wound up gives you medication and then you go home, keep scratching the wound while having medicatons and think that the wound will be healed.
Is it possible?..........No right? 😭
The same thing happens ,you get diagnosed with diabetes doctor gives medications, you go home have medication but you don't act on the root cause that is eliminating
Carbohydrates/Sugars and instead have pills or Insulin shots which will manage the blood glucose. And then your body instead of healing itself starts degrades from heart,kidney,liver,eyesight,nerve damages and the list goes on !
Medication with right nutrition would help them in reversing their pathologies.
Yes i have seen 2 of my clients reverse Type 2 diabetes and lower Insulin doses in an Insulin dependant patients with the right nutrition and so can YOU !😎😎😎
Hope this shall help some!
