That's what the front page of the New York Times and the covers of all the big magazines should be printing. The reality of the matter is you can expect mainstream media to be the last to ever publish an event like this because then they would lose their biggest sponsors: the drug manufacturers of the world. Fact is getting control of America's diabetes epidemic demands the public gain a better understanding of diabetes known causes. The emergence of Metabolic Syndrome X has leaked some key findings through the big media cracks, but many health seekers have already started to solve this epidemic puzzle on their own. Let's speed this up a little and put some of this "leaked out" information about diabetes and related illnesses together. Many scientific studies have shown an obvious connection between inflammation and diabetes. In fact, 50% of people with insulin resistance (pre-diabetes) also have hypertension, which is classified as an inflammatory condition. Metabolic Syndrome X is insulin resistance, high blood pressure, cholesterol, obesity and "inflammatory markers" all together wrapped into one package. What I'm sharing with you isn't medicine; it's science! Anyone can find out how to remove the cause of diabetes and these other illnesses such as Metabolic Syndrome X, even without being a medical doctor - just being a fan of real science is enough to qualify. I find it most exciting to discover science-based evidence that supports common sense; it seems so hard to find either these days. There are studies linking chronic systemic inflammation to diabetes, as well as heart disease, even cancer. When news of this gets out, it is going to be HUGE! The risk factors for diabetes still stand, and if you want to cure your diabetes then the only way is to address its root cause by making lifestyle modifications. Curing diabetes in itself is the epic event of our times. Here are 3 things you'll have to change to cure your diabetes: * Your Attitude: "If you think you can or think you can't, either way you are right!" * Your Diet: "Too much animal fat disrupts insulin function." * Your Lifestyle: "Laying around smoking and drinking alcohol and pop is harmful." Diabetes is a complex series of symptoms that starts with "loss of cellular energy, acidosis and then inflammation." Beyond that, your immune system becomes overburdened, as your cellular communications degenerates and gets scrambled. Diabetes type II is an effect of low-grade chronic systemic inflammation and there's proof diabetes type I is also associated with inflammation! Your insulin is a messenger molecule. When its message gets scrambled, you can bet it's not the only thing going wrong in your body. Inflammation markers can also predict pre-diabetic conditions such as weight gain, hypertension, gestational diabetes and onset of insulin resistance. Start with improving cell health, increase vital energy, detox and nurture your body with a natural alkaline diet, and at least, get some mild exercise.
