Chronic Health Conditions Discussion and Support

solution, because the way I cured my diabetes may not work for you, is short sighted at best. The way that worked for me is working for many, many people. Each one of them would say that you are not part of the solution to try to deny that what works for others isn't valid because you haven't tried it or it may not work for you. We are each individuals and as such not everything will work the same for each of us.

I cured my diabetes, so why are you yelling at me that there is no cure????? There is a cure for many. Your trying to discredit what I and others have worked very hard to do, against the advice of doctors and pharma, who stand to profit greatly if we stay sick, is very selfish. I'm very sorry that you have diabetes. That doesn't negate that some people can cure theirs or improve their blood sugars. I was really pissed to have diabetes myself and even more pissed that my (now fired) doctor kept giving me the party line advice about it. She laughed at me and told me I'd go to an early death if I didn't follow her advice. She seems to be wrong. And if she's not.... then at least I'll enjoy the short time (according to her and her pharma reps) I have left, as opposed to my life before, when I had no energy, was depressed and just waiting to die.

If you read my post, you'll notice that I also tried for years to control mine with low carb and exercise and had limited success. Even when I was low carb, I was still eating processed foods, whole grains, soy and many of the overly processed fats like corn oil and canola. When I cut those things out, my health changed for the better. Fact. I absolutely don't think it will work for everyone, nor would I ever say that, but that doesn't mean it's not a viable alternative.

I used to have to eat every two to three hours to keep my blood sugar under control and because eating carbs that were anything but low starch vegetables caused me to be hungry all the time. When I switched to what is called primal or paleo, I was able to cut my meals down to 2 per day, due to the high fat content that kept me feeling full and just didn't allow for the spikes in blood sugar. I didn't change my exercise, but I'm aware that lifting weights is a good idea and at some point I'll add that. I'm not remotely saying that what I did was easy and that everyone will see the same results. This thread was for suggestions that might help others.

Your post helped no one and was simply an insult. I do not understand why people are so flipping pissed when someone else has success at something. No one is bashing you. I'd be thrilled to death for you if found a way to help yourself and I wouldn't give a flying fig what it was you found that worked! If if worked for you, I'd celebrate that!
