How to completely reverse type 2 diabetes - without dangerous drugs

Did you know that it's estimated that 370 Million people worldwide have some form of diabetes... and a whopping 60 Million Americans are walking around with prediabetes, and most of them don't even know that they have it.  Now that's a full blown epidemic that should have us all concerned.

Why has this become such a growing problem in recent years?

Well, the main reason is that we've become of world of carb addicts.  There's other factors too...less exercise, the chemical burden that we are exposed too, etc...but the main reason is the massive excess of carbs that comprises most people's diet.

We've gone from our hunter-gatherer ancestors (with an ancestral diet high in protein, healthy fats, and low to moderate carbs from fruits and veggies) into a modern day world of carbohydrates everywhere we look.  And I'm not just talking about the refined "bad carbs" that everybody talks about... sugar, corn syrup, refined flour, etc.

I'm also talking about the so-called "good carbs" that the food industry wants you to think are "healthy"... In fact, that "whole grain" bread and cereal that you've been brainwashed into thinking is healthy has actually been proven to raise blood sugar levels even higher than refined sugar many times (depending on the type of grain with wheat being one of the worst).  

This constant assault on your pancreas to produce insulin in response to all of these "whole grains" that everybody loads into their body on a daily basis not only causes insulin resistance over time, but also added weight (particularly in the abdomen from chronically high insulin), higher triglyceride levels, and eventual type 2 diabetes. 

I'm always shocked (and a bit saddened) when I see that most people don't realize that type 2 diabetes can be 100% completely reversed through diet changes and exercise.  It's as if our entire world is brainwashed to think that drugs are the only answer.  I've even talked to actual doctors that don't even understand that type 2 diabetes can be reversed without drugs.  It's almost as if they've forgotten fundamental biochemistry of the body.  Let's just think about it logically for a second...

Type 2 diabetes is 100% caused by poor diet over years and years, and can be 100% reversed by a good diet along with exercise.  Very simply... do the opposite of what caused the diabetes, and you will reverse it.

It's so shocking to me that even many doctors today don't realize this obvious connection. 

Even if you watch the popular TV show, "The Biggest Loser", you'll see that so many of the contestants on that show start the season with full blown type 2 diabetes, and when the season is over, they are 100% cured of their diabetes, simply because they lost most of their body weight and changed their lifestyle. 

Does the entire medical establishment purposely turn a blind eye to all of these case studies where people completely reverse their diabetes through proper nutrition and exercise, without drugs?  Do they do this on purpose to sell more diabetes drugs?  I would hope not, but I'm not so certain of that.

Unfortunately, diabetes drugs actually make matters worse, because they only mask the immediate problem of blood sugar control, but never fix the underlying metabolic problems, which is insulin sensitivity and healing your pancreas.  I've been reading one of the best books on this topic lately, called The 30-Day Diabetes Cure, by Dr. Stephan Ripich, and it's a phenomenal book if you want the easiest, fastest, most natural way to completely reverse type 2 diabetes while also getting slimmer at that same time.

Dr Ripich points out in his book that just mindlessly lowering blood sugar with drugs isn't the same as HEALING your diabetes.  In fact, it actually makes matter WORSE, because you still end up still eating the wrong foods that continue to assault your beta-cells in your pancreas, causing further damage.  With drugs, you end up "watching your numbers" all the time and taking drugs, but your diabetes continues to worsen relentlessly. 

To make matters worse, Dr Ripich points out many studies in his book that correlate diabetes drugs to increased rates of death, and increased rates of heart attacks.  Obviously, taking diabetes drugs is not the solution to type 2 diabetes... the solution is to permanently change the way you eat, and also permanently change your lifestyle, and you can easily reverse diabetes over time, and save your life.

Dr Ripich also has dozens of case studies in his book, The 30-Day Diabetes Cure, which proves that his approach to nutrition can indeed 100% cure (yes, CURE) your diabetes.  I'm terribly saddened that so many people think diabetes is a lifetime sentence of blood sugar monitoring, dangerous drugs, and crippling complications... it's NOT!  It just takes YOU to start changing your lifestyle and your food intake, and it WILL reverse itself.

You can watch Dr Ripich's video below about how his solution works and his case studies that have totally reversed their diabetes in only 30 days with his plan:

If you're already convinced about trying out Dr Ripich's 30-day Diabetes Cure plan, and don't need to watch his video describing case studies, etc, you can go right to this page here for the 2 order options for his book.  You can choose the ebook version or physical book version right on that page if you want to skip the video case studies.

I'll be talking more about blood sugar control in upcoming newsletters as it's a hot topic and one I've been putting a lot of research into lately.
