My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article kzfaq.infoUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.

*My daughter drinks lots of water and urinates with the same rate, there are no other symptoms to show if those have anything to do with diabetes. This is a good information that I have gone through **Diabets.Care** She is 2 years 9 months, hale and healthy, have not done any blood test. But I am not certain if one can get diabetes at such a tender age. Please I will like to know more on that*

Hello Andy. Those are symptoms of Childhood diabetes. My daughter at 14 was just diagnosed with it right before Christmas 2021. The thing is if she's not making insulin that is a recipe for tragedy. She's probably got large ketone in her urine, leg and body cramps, always thirsty can't drink enough water and Che may get headaches and find herself fatigued. I know it's not optimal for a kid to have a negative diagnosis,but again you want to help her. They will give her a blood test and test her blood sugar and insulin levels and ketones. Please take your baby to the doctor or hospital before its too late. My daughter had so much weight loss and stopped eating. If I would have waited any longer there may have been irreversible nerve damage or worse ❤🌻 With insulin (now) she has picked up her weight, eats,has strength and is learning how to manage till we can find out how to reverse.

Try black cumin seed and black seed oil and drink Apple Cider vinegar (unpasturized,w the mother)dilute 2 spoons into a glass of water and chug it 3 times it reduces insulin spikes then cut out all saugar and reduce carbs to only 20-40g a day drink only water w pink salt 5ml per serving then eat foods w low glycemic index like lentil beans,fresh veggies,and no gluten,then reduce all processed oils from your diet. theres a chance You will go into diabetic remission as I did. I lost 255lbs. got taken off all Rx meds,and I just ran 10miles in the cold and never felt better Follow these rules to your new life and youll thank me type1 runs in my family heavy but if when I stopped over eating and attended meetings at overeaters anonymous I defeated this horrible disease with a healthy diet last check my sugar level was 76 and my A1c is 3.9 #NeverLoseHope

Strict whole food-plant based here, going on 4 years. My cholesterol was 210, which isn't real high, but I learned that below 150 was better. 135 now, for years. Weight: 194 lb -> 150 lb, for years not above 155 or so. Blood pressure, previously high and controlled with medicine; also controlled heart rate (resting) which was above 100 beats per minute: now 75 without medicine. Blood pressure 120/84 now, no medicine. This is all with minimal exercise, which I should do more. I am very happy and will never revert. I always cook my own food: whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta with black beans, chia seeds, spinach, carrots, tea. No sugar or salt any longer: no need after the palate adjusts. Fully satisfied 100% with my foods. It is radical, no doubt, compared to standard American diet. But is very enjoyable.

Spikes insulin, raises cortisol, and you can better your cardio by adjusting your weight plan. I used to run 2miles 6days a week before each weight training session. Now i walk at the end of the session and only every other day. Weird getting results not killing myself but i feel better.

He was so right about doctors not helping with diet. When I was diagnosed with T2 diabetes by my PCP, he basically said “you have diabetes, book an appointment with an endocrinologist.” When I asked what I should do in the meantime, he just paused and said “well no sugar. But your endo will probably refer you to a dietician.” But that didn’t happen.

I used to be very sick & heading towards a major stroke and diabetes both of which run in my family genes including cancer. A Vegan entered my life and told me what happens in those dark torture sheds to innocent animals - I was so upset my money was paying for that so I went Vegan thinking I'm probably going to die...let's face it...we're manipulated to think that if we change...something bad will happen. My body completely healed. I'm healthier today at 64 than my entire life. I am so grateful for that Vegan. My compassion saved my life of suffering. I chose to stop causing suffering, and my suffering ended. I look forward to getting older and staying fit strong and healthy. I'm LOVING my health!

This is so inspiring. I can not believe how many people I speak to that are content with just taking the medications and just going to dialysis as though this is a natural process in life. We have passed on the the tradition of crippling our entire generations of family by eating foods riddled with sugars and fats. Very inspiring

I was going to write a Master's thesis on reversing Diabetic Retinopathy with the Raw Living Foods Lifestyle, but my mentor Dr./Rabbi Gabriel Cousens did not get the grant to study a cohort of 400 Adult onset diabetics. Instead, I am writing on reversing chronic illnesses with the Raw Living Foods lifestyle. This is an amazing testimonial. Thanks for your work T.Colin Campbell and Nelson Campbell and all of the wives! Blessings, Shalom and Namasté. :)

Dear Mayor, Servant Leader, this byfar is the best service you could give to our community. Being an African American male, you are a well needed role model. Black men are most reluctant to take care of their health, neglect check-ups, and resistant to any encouragement from spouses or loved ones to seek medical help. Kudos to going to the Doctor! You could have easily blown it off because of your busy schedule and level of responsibility. Thank God you shifted your priorities and now helping others make better choices for a longer and better quality of life!
