Low-Carb Diets Better at Lowering Blood Sugar than High-Carb Diets

Diabetes is a chronic disease that currently affects nearly 30 million Americans, per the CDC. Although diabetes is a complicated disease, maintaining good blood sugar control can significantly reduce the risk of complications – and according to research, one of the most effective ways to achieve better blood sugar levels is to follow a low-carb diet https://saludmovil.com/low-carb-diets-better-at-lowering-blood-sugar-than-high-carb-diets/

Diabetes Test Strips, Ink Cartridges And Big Pharma?


Well, I Didn't See This One Coming.

Congratulations! You've just been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.  Welcome. You are going to learn SO MUCH stuff. And as a lovely parting gift from your doctor for allowing him to share this exciting news with you, here is you very own, brand new glucometer to test your blood sugars, complete with meter, 10 lancets and 10 free test strips.  A "value" of over $100...now yours, absolutely FREE, just for playing "Hey, Why Am I Always So Darn Thirsty?".  Then the doctor disappears, nurse gives you your first little "prick" to show you how to "do it", packs up all of your new stuff into a plastic bag and schedules a 3 month follow-up.  Is that the way it happened for you?  Yeah, same for most of us.

Anyway, now that you're "diabetic", strap yourself in for the learning curve (it looks like a roller coaster at Six Flags). You are about to get a crash course on everything related to being a Type 2 Diabetic from education classes with a "diabetes educator", learn really important stuff about nutrition ( I STILL don't get that whole "exchange" thing ), warning signs, explanations and examples of what happens when your blood sugars are too low or too high.  You'll get books, and manuals, infographics, phone numbers, different doctors or professionals to have on your "care team"  Did you know you are even going to have a dentist and an eye doctor on it?  Just who's NOT going to be billing my insurance company?

So, I thought this was FREE?

The one thing you didn't get with all of your "free" stuff ( actually paid for by your insurance company ), was a "price list".  "Why would I need a price list?" you might ask.  Well because diabetes is big BUSINESS and there TRILLION$ of GLOBAL DOLLAR$ to be made by the same companies that either bill or pay for $425 for an aspirin while in hospital.  You think that's bad?  You ain't seen nothin' yet.  Wait until you need to go out of pocket for test strips.  Be careful to not have a stroke - remember, as a diabetic, you ARE at risk!

Okay...Let Me Have It...I'm Ready Now For MORE Bad News...

Alright, let me prepare you for it first.  You've kind of been in this spot before.

Remember when your "old" computer printer crapped out and you went to Wal-Mart to go buy a cheap one...and WOW, look at how cheap they ARE!  Such a deal. You almost wanted to buy TWO they were so cheap (c'mon, they're printers not big jars of peanut butter 2-for-1...oh wait I DO need peanut butter ).  You were so happy and proud at all the money you saved.  You hurried right home, plugged everything in, ran a test page - LOOKS GREAT - then got to work printing stuff out.

Then....it STOPPED!  After only what seems like 10 pages, it ran out of ink.  The kid at Wal-Mart didn't know that the manufacturer only puts enough ink in the printer to get it home and get you excited.  The reality now hits - you have to go get an ink cartridge - but hey, how expensive can an ink cartridge cost for a $30 printer?  No problem, right?

"WAIT...There Must Be Some Sort Of Mistake!"

How can a BLACK ink cartridge cost almost as much as my printer?  You tell the clerk at the office supply store ( or Wal-mart again ) "You need to check the price in you computer.  It MUST be wrong!"  After 10 minutes of "huh?", you realize you have been "suckered".  But don't feel too bad about it...it happens again when you get your new glucometer.

Remember in your new box for your meter, you received 10 lancets and 10 test strips?  Well, think of the test strips as the ink cartridge ( and in this case, like the "teaser" ink cartridge that came with your new printer - starting to get that "old" feeling? ).  The glucometer was actually FREE - whereas you stilled paid a little money for your printer.  Now if your printer cost about $30 and ink cartridges cost about as much, then it makes sense that if my glucometer is FREE, then my test strips are going to be pretty close to free, too. Right?  Oh, it is always so sad to tell a young child one day that there really is no Santa Claus.  The answer, I'm afraid, is NO!  Not Even CLOSE.  It's very likely that a box of 50 test strips is going to cost just about as much as your ink cartridge - but your ink cartridge is actually going to look pretty inexpensive when you compare it to your test strips.  Watch this very carefully

This Is Not MAGIC...BLACK MAGIC...This Is Only Math!

Let's say your ink cartridge - just the black one - cost you $30.  Now, let's say you're able to find 50 test strips that work with your monitor for the same $30 - not an out of the ballpark range ( it depends on your meter - which was FREE, remember? ).  Now your ink cartridge says it will last for up to 250 pages.  Your test strips will last for 50 tests.  How long is it going to take you to print out 250 pages ( be real here).  2 months?  3 months?  Longer?  Well, on a per page basis, your $30 ink cartridge is going to cost you about 12 cents per page and let's say that is spread out over 3 months.  It's not likely you're going to be using your printer everyday, right?

Now, let's assume your doctor wants you to test your blood sugars just 3 times per day ( maybe even just 2 times ).  You have a box of 50 strips, and you will use them up in just 16 days (not 3 months like the printer). Your test strips cost you $0.60 cents per strip - or $1.80 per day.  I'm not kidding on the per strip cost.  That is a pretty common number.  Let me ask, do you use your printer 3 times per day?  That cost would be only $0.36 for 3 pages if you did.  $0.36 per day for paper or $1.80 per day for test strips?  Your ink cartridge is beginning to look pretty good right about now, huh?  See, it's math, not magic.

Enough, already...All This Math Is Making My Head Hurt

Sorry, but we haven't even gotten to the good part yet.  The reality is that as of just a couple of years ago, prices ranged from 15 cents a strip, to $9 for a box of 50 strips (18 cents each) up to $1.50 per strip. As I showed in the example, a little more than $0.60 cents a strip is not uncommon.

People with diabetes want to show the medical and insurance industry that the high price of test strips quite often meant they were not able to consistently monitor their blood glucose. That was true both for uninsured people and insured people, who said their insurance policies often did not cover strips, or covered  fewer than the doctor prescribed, or covered them with a hefty copay.

Because they are not testing their blood glucose, some people have said they felt that they were guessing on treatment — and therefore were more likely to encounter the serious complications that diabetes can bring, like cardiovascular disease, nerve damage, kidney disease, eye damage (including blindness), foot damage (including amputation - and I can tell you a LOT more about THAT one ), skin conditions, hearing impairment and Alzheimer’s disease.

Why Does Any OF This Matter?

A recent study in California found that the situation with the pricing of diabetic necessities has become more than worrisome; and that gouging for a profit is not right.  At one major retailer, strips went from roughly 33 cents a strip to more than a dollar.  The resources now for most cost-conscious diabetics is to shop on the web.  One example of savings is a customer gets boxes of 50 strips for about $31.50 per box, including shipping — a little more than 60 cents per strip.

According to another shopper, Walmart sells the Relion Prime meter for $16.24 ( 2014) and the strips are $9.00 per 50. That is the best pricing they had found. And just so people know, all of the different brands of meters are required to work within set specifications. The Relion meter in that example is claimed to be just as good as any of the higher priced meters.  Obviously, you can see that diabetes is not going to be cheap.

A Whole New ("Black") Market For Test Strips (And NO...Not Used Ones)

Because some diabetics aren't testing as often as directed, trying to 'horde" or marshal test strips to save money, the danger of "guessing" was mentioned just above.  It is actually so bad that a whole new industry has cropped up...and it's very possible that you've already seen signs nailed to telephone poles or elsewhere say "I BUY TEST STRIPS"...right?

Yep...there's already a "market" for diabetics in need of cash for unused, unexpired, unopened boxes of test strips.  Pretty sick, isn't it?  The bottom line is in order to find the least priced test strip, you need to digging around on the internet.  It might take some work.  Check out the prices of the strips designed for use with your monitor.  A good place to start would be this Google Link.  Another thing to compare is does the price of test strips for your monitor compare to the price of monitors that are less expensive?  Are the test strips priced relative to the monitor?  If so, get the least expensive monitor with the least expensive strips.

Kind of makes the whole ink cartridge thing seem silly, doesn't it?

Reversing Type 2 Diabetes - A Few Types Of Natural Diabetes Control Methods

Type 2 Diabetes is a lifestyle disease that you can control. Natural T2 diabetes control involves following simple steps to keep your sugar levels low. There exist ways that are inexpensive and play a great deal in ensuring that your life does not stall because of diabetes.

As you may already know, there are three types of diabetes namely type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes (occurs only in pregnant women). Type 1 diabetes is severe since the body complete refuses to produce insulin which is the fuel for the body. Type 2 is common, and in this case, the body produces insufficient insulin.

The focus of this article is on the natural control methods for type 2 diabetics.

Here are several natural diabetes control methods:

1.  Eating Fruits - When you have, diabetes makes fruits that are rich in insulin your friend. Such fruits include pomegranates which contain high levels of antioxidants. Other fruits like oranges, lemons, berries and watermelons have insulin properties.

Apples should also be a major component of your diet since they have high fiber content and are low in calories. An eating apple often helps control your cholesterol level and naturally regulates your blood sugar levels.

2.  Drink Water - It is of the essence for someone with diabetes to always stay hydrated. Water is readily available and is free from chemicals. Water is a natural diabetes control in that it helps regulate blood sugar level in the body.

Research has shown there’s a link between a hormone known as vasopressin and diabetes. Dehydration signals the body to produce vasopressin which in turn triggers the liver to produce glucose. Increased glucose production leads to high sugar levels.

So when you have diabetes, it is recommended to take up to eight glasses of water each day. When one is well hydrated, their body sugar levels tend to control themselves naturally.

3.  Green Tea - Wondering what the fuss is about green tea lately? Well, you will be glad to learn that it’s a genetic diabetic control. Research has shown that green tea helps control speeding up of glucose levels in the body.

Drinking green tea mildly every day without adding sweeteners will help you manage your diabetes naturally. It contains antioxidants that regulate the glucose level in the blood.

4.  Natural Herbs - Leaves from several plants and trees have been credited to naturally controlling diabetes. Such leaves include methi leaves, Neem, Basil leaves and gurmar leaves. You can boil these leaves and drink the water.

The leaves can also be dried and crushed into powder form. The powder can then be added to hot water and taken as a beverage. This natural leaves have the ability to monitor the glucose level in the body. They can also trigger the production of insulin in the body.

5.  Nuts - Several groups of nuts also act as a natural diabetes  control. As much as nuts have calories, they have a high fiber content that helps control glucose in the body.

Nuts such as almonds, peanuts, and hazelnuts are rich in magnesium and vitamin E which controls glucose in the body.

The above ways are efficient natural methods that will help you in the fight against diabetes.

4 Types Of Diabetes Natural Treatment

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a natural treatment for diabetes? Fortunately, there is a diabetes natural treatment which is either herbal or involves natural therapies. As you use supplements and drugs in your diabetes treatment, you can also incorporate natural remedies and alternative therapies.

Before trying out these alternative natural methods, it is important to talk to your doctor first. These alternative methods get you out of your conventional medication. It concentrates on more natural methods that will help cure your diabetes.

Most of these methods have properties that lower blood sugar levels. Practicing these alternative therapies will ensure that your body improves its ability to control glucose in the body. More and more people are turning to these natural methods to help them manage and even reverse diabetes.

Below are some natural alternative ways to fight diabetes:

1.  Dietary Supplements - For years supplements have been used to help boost certain elements and minerals in the body. Natural nutritional supplements such as chromium are essential in helping the body regulate its glucose levels.

The use of supplements can be a diabetes natural treatment since it will facilitate the production of insulin. Studies have shown that supplements containing chromium can control diabetes.  A plant is known as ginseng also includes sugar- lowering properties.

Supplements that boost one’s magnesium levels are also recommended. Low magnesium levels in the body tend to worsen the body’s ability to control its sugar levels.  Lack of magnesium is said to hinder the pancreas from producing insulin, and in some cases, it may make the body resistant to insulin.

2.  Acupuncture - Acupuncture is an alternative therapy where thin sharp needles are inserted in specific areas of the body. According to followers of this method, these sharp needles trigger the release of natural painkillers in the body.

Diabetes can cause painful nerve damage. Through acupuncture, the therapist can trigger painkillers that will help the patient ease out of their pain.

3.  Guided Imagery - Relaxation techniques have for the longest time helped patients to deal with their diseases. Through guided imagery, a person with diabetes thinks of peaceful thoughts. A professional is involved in this method.

By having 'happy thoughts', a person with diabetes can cope with the disease better or can even be cured of it. The response from people who have used this method is that it helps them heal.

4.  Fiber Rich Foods - Another natural treatment of diabetes is through eating foods rich in fiber. Plants such as broccoli and cinnamon-rich foods tend to hinder inflammation in the body.

Cloves and dark green leafy vegetables trigger the production of insulin that helps control insulin in the body. An extract from cloves known as eugenol is said to boost insulin activity in the body as well as lower cholesterol.

As you embrace these alternative methods, ensure that you get a go ahead from your doctor. Some of these remedies may interfere with your medication or even cause further problems to your health.

Maybe There Is A Cure For Diabetes (Type 2) After All!

 
Diabetes has risen to be among the top 5 killer diseases in the world. The good news is that it’s curable. Studies have shown that the cure for diabetes lies in weight loss and healthy eating. It is possible adequately treat diabetes by making some lifestyle changes.

Type 1 diabetes is not curable but can be effectively managed by ensuring that one gives the body the necessary insulin. There are insulin products in the products that can be directly injected directly into the blood stream to regulate the sugar levels.

On the other hand, Type 2 diabetes is curable through discipline and sheer will power. Most of the drugs out there try to hide the symptoms of diabetes and slow down its complications.

It’s however necessary to understand that diabetes is a lifestyle disease. The increasing number of people living unhealthy lifestyles has led to a rise in the occurrence of diabetes. Most individuals in the world today have abandoned healthy cultures and opt for quick fixes to their problems. Fast foods and lack of exercise are the norm in almost every household.

How Does Weight Loss Help Cure Diabetes?

A recent research has shown that cutting down on body fat can contribute to cure diabetes. A person who has diabetes needs to lose just a little bit of weight, and they will be healed from the disease.

Previous misconceptions were that one needs to get very skinny to be free from diabetes. However, studies have shown that 13% weight loss which implies about 0.6 grams of fat would help cure diabetes.

By losing weight, the diabetic person sheds fat from their pancreas which in turn boosts production of insulin necessary to regulate blood sugar levels. Losing even one gram of fat from the pancreas will act as a cure for diabetes.

It is of the essence to restrict calorie intake in your body and strive to stay away from foods that will lead to weight gain. Losing even 5% of your weight helps control your sugar levels as well as your cholesterol level.

Watch What You Eat

Healthy eating helps cure diabetes. What you eat directly affects your weight gain and consequently your diabetes. Eating a balanced diet doesn’t have to be complicated.

Ensure that your diet has nutritious and healthy foods. Nutritionists advocate that vegetables should be the largest portion of your plate. Consuming a lot of vegetables especially uncooked ones ensure that your body gets essential nutrients that boost insulin levels in the body and eventually cure diabetes.

Ensure that you consume whole grain foods as well which are loaded with fiber necessary to control glucose levels in the body. You do not need a complicated meal plan. Incorporate readily available healthy foods in your diet. All it takes is a lot of discipline to ensure that you control your portions and eat the healthy stuff.

Keep off processed, refined and bleached food. Going organic will help cure your diabetes. Remain positive and keep in mind that diabetes can be reversed. It lies in losing weight and living a wholesome, healthy lifestyle.

So this is a good start. Work it into a healthy lifestyle and you just might then that there is a cure for diabetes - at least for Type 2!

Reversing Type 2 Diabetes Through Diet And Exercise

So, you are one of the millions who has been diagnosed with diabetes. Hi...ME TOO!  Welcome to the “club”. I bet that type “diabetes” was a word you definitely did not want to hear when you walked into your doctor's office.  All you know about it is that it's a chronic disease that will cause your feet and other body parts to rot. You console yourself, saying that you have many more years before that ever happens. But this is a life sentence. At least that's what you have read before.  Well, it's not all that...really.  There's actually good news about Reversing Type 2 Diabetes Through Diet And Exercise.

This article aims to tell you that you can easily reverse your type 2 diabetes. Not through surgery, not through dozens of pills and other medication, but through diet and exercise. Yes, you got me right. Diet and Exercise! It's that easy! Well, at least the concept is.

You need to resolve to change your lifestyle. Put away that bag of chips and soda, get off your behind and make a change! The only way to reverse type 2 diabetes and maintain it that way is by diet and exercise. Type 2 diabetes is caused by a resistance to insulin. This does not happen overnight.

Your body has gotten accustomed to bad food and no exercise. Type 2 diabetes is caused when you accumulate so much refined sugar in your body that it cannot handle the load. It produces more insulin which causes you to gain even more weight. At this point, you might say, “But I only drink diet soda.” Do not lie to yourself. Even the most “diet” of sodas have some form of sugar in them. High carb meals and wheat products like white bread and pasta are not exonerated from the list either. These are converted to sugar in your body only minutes after ingestion.

Some people say that you should slowly ease into a healthier diet, but I recommend going cold turkey on all the harmful foods you are eating. Diabetes may have eased itself into your body, but you do not want it there any longer than it should be. Here are a few tips:

•    Switch to eating a more plant and healthy protein-based diet.
•    Avoid ALL refined sugars.
•    Increase your intake of healthy Omega-3 fats such as salmon.
•    Choose fruits as snacks and desserts
•    Supplement your diet with useful minerals such as Magnesium and Chromium
•    Fast intermittently (you can find guidelines on how best to do this)

Exercise is also important for reversing type 2 diabetes. It increases your body's muscle mass, enabling it to control the functioning of insulin more. Exercise also helps you lose weight – obesity is highly associated with type 2 diabetes. If you have been inactive for a long time, start by taking a brisk walk in your neighbourhood. Always aim to break a sweat and bring your heart rate up to the point where you can barely speak as you workout (Make sure that it is within the safe range). With time, you will be able to walk longer and eventually do some high-intensity workouts.

Putting all of this into practice will make you feel better and you could reverse your type 2 diabetes in a matter of weeks!  No Kiddin!

What Are Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 Symptoms?

Just how big is the diabetes problem worldwide?  I have heard of Type 1, Type 2 and Gestational diabetes, but what are diabetes mellitus type 2 symptoms and is it the same as Type 2 diabetes?

Over the past two decades, the number of people globally who suffer from diabetes shot up to 230 million worldwide - 30 million of them just in the U.S. Millions of lives have been lost and the ability of the health care system to deal with this disease is severely challenged while trying to manage this epidemic. This according to recent information provided by the International Diabetes Federation.

Diabetes is where your body can't store properly or use fuel for the energy the body needs. It's glucose - a form of sugar - that is the fuel that your body needs. It's from these foods that glucose comes from:  bread, cereal, pastas, rice, potatoes, some vegetables and fruits. Your body needs insulin to properly utilize glucose. Insulin is a hormone that is produced by your pancreas.

Essentially, Diabetes is identified as three basic types: Type 1, Type 2, Gestational diabetes. Gestational diabetes will occur only during pregnancy.

Types of Diabetes Mellitus:  Diabetes mellitus is a clinical condition that has numerous causes. There are two classes of diabetes mellitus.  They are idiopathic and secondary.

The idiopathic form of diabetes falls into two main types; insulin dependent and non-insulin-dependent. The insulin-dependent form of diabetes mellitus (Type 1) is identified also as IDDM.  It's identified by the development of "diabetic ketoacidosis" (DKA) if not treated with a therapy of insulin. The Type 1 diabetes class is more likely developed childhood (why it is also called juvenile diabetes) and is caused by autoimmune destruction of b-cells found in the pancreas.

Insulin-Resistant (or non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus - Type 2 is identified also as NIDDM.  It's characterized by a persistent condition of hyperglycemia.  It rarely leads to ketoacidosis. Type 2 diabetes is usually diagnosed in adults age 40 and older.  It was previously known as adult onset diabetes. The Type 2 form of diabetes can be the result of genetic defects that are known to cause both insulin resistance and deficiency. The two main forms of type 2 diabetes are:

Late onset common with obesity and late onset not related to obesity.

Example meal plan for managing diabetes (type 1 or type 2):  Select foods that you like and satisfy hunger for you.  Be sure to include "carbs" (carbohydrate foods) with each meal or snack as needed to manage blood sugar (glucose) levels. Eat the biggest meal at lunch or for dinner.  You need to seek immediate medical attention if diabetic symptoms occur.  From time to time, and particularly Type 1 suffers - these can occur abruptly. It could lead to 'diabetic keto acidosis' (DKA).  This is a medical emergency. Symptoms of DKA include loss of appetite, unexplained weight loss, vomiting, unusually excessive urination, confusion and other altered states of consciousness all leading to diabetic coma. Please seek immediate medical attention if you see these symptoms occur.

The conclusion to take away from the question "What Are Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 Symptoms?":  Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 and Type 2 Diabetes are virtually the same disease - with symptoms being the same.  Really the only difference is in the semantics of the name.

Can You Reverse Diabetes? With Simple Lifestyle Changes and 3-Step Diet Plan Reversing Diabetes is Possible



The term 'reversal' is applied when diabetics can go off their insulin medication but still need to stick to certain lifestyle changes in order to completely stay off of it. So, what are these lifestyle changes that can help reversing diabetes?

September 30, 2014 Medical science has again proved its mettle by answering the gigantic question, can diabetes be reversed? While, now days, you can find a diabetic in each house spending a fortune in diabetes drugs and insulin injections, simple lifestyle changes have been introduced by medical researchers that helps reversing diabetes. The only thing these diabetics need to reverse diabetes is commitment.

About Type-2 Diabetes

Type-2 diabetes is commonly known as “adult - onset diabetes” that mostly affects people over 40 years of age. As the age grows, insulin making capacity of a person lowers and the blood sugar level increases beyond the normal range making the important cells non-functional. That is when the person starts suffering with diabetes and has to take insulin for normal functioning of cells.

Reversing Diabetes with simple lifestyle changes and 3-step diet plan

A simple lifestyle change is the key to reversing diabetes. Diabetics can alter theaffects of diabetes by strictly following a 3-step diet plan that will aid them in maintaining a normal blood sugar level, losing extra weight and improving health consciousness. The 3-step diet plan includes a simple diet containing all natural foods, regular exercises (breathing and relaxation, stretching, meditation etc) and intake of some natural supplements. All the steps are crucial for reversing diabetes successfully and retaining a sound health.

Staying away from sugar and other artificial sweeteners is a must for all diabetics. Adding leafy vegetables and natural foods to the diet and exercising regularly helps a lot in controlling blood sugar. These simple lifestyle changes are what it takes to reverse diabetes.

The Research

According to recent medical studies, diabetics can stop the progress of type-2 diabetes by just losing 10% of their total weight and refrain from taking medications. In a recent studies performed on 10 diabetics, 80% totally got off their diabetes medication within a year by following this simple 3-step diet plan and the rest 20% were identified as pre-diabetics as their blood sugar level reached the normal level. Results were best for those who lost the most weight.
