In last week’s article, we mentioned that 95% of diabetes cases are reversible. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes, your body has forgotten how to regulate insulin on its own.  It is a myth that you simply eat too much sugar and that if you just eat less sugar, you can get your diabetes under control.

The first thing you need to know is that if you use artificial sweeteners or artificially sweetened sugar free foods, you need to wean yourself off of all of it! You are much better off just having sugar, but in moderation. Nothing causes more insulin confusion in your body than when it thinks it’s having sugar and it’s not. This contributes greatly to your body not being able to regulate insulin on its own.

Healthy LifestyleThere is much hope in the reversal of this epidemic in our community. Knowledge is the key. The best news is that it can be reversed naturally and in doing so, your overall health will improve. Even if you haven’t been diagnosed, the information in this series can be very beneficial for you in preventing most diseases. It’s not as difficult as it may seem to live a healthy life. Added bonuses to turning your health around are weight loss, extra energy and a youthful appearance to name a few.

Taking action in the following areas will get you on the road to reversing diabetes. Even if you are dependent on medication to regulate your blood sugar levels, you can reverse your condition by:

 

  • Limiting sugars, grains and processed foods
  • Addressing problems with your digestive system
  • Reducing stress
  • Balancing Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats
  • Exercising
  • Losing excess weight
  • Taking supplements where your diet is deficient

Don’t be intimidated by this list. As I mentioned, it is easier than it seems. Changing one thing at a time can keep the process from becoming overwhelming. Where most people fail with diet and lifestyle changes is in trying to go cold turkey and change everything at once. In this series, you’ll be given all of the tools and information you need to make it happen.

If you’re one of those people that thinks you don’t like ANYTHING that’s considered healthy, I promise that you can find a healthy equivalent of pretty much anything that you consider to be a staple in your diet. You CAN eat healthy meals and still enjoy great tasting food, so stay tuned!
