Thanks to my research on diabetes, I’ve come to know that there are many different ways to improve our health and even cure “incurable” diseases (as allopathic physicians say) such as diabetes. I guess that every one of those who have diabetes got this disease for different reasons: eating too much (and especially white flour and sugars), stress, a trauma, blockage of nerve pathways in the spinal cord, prolonged emotional problems, inherited, by a virus, caused by a drug or vaccines in children, etc… With this in mind, it seems logical that each one should look the best method to cure him/her according to what may have been the cause of their diabetes. What works for me, may not work for another one and vice versa. The good thing about natural therapies -practiced by specialists-, is that although it may not be the most appropriate for your particular case, it [...]
Well, lets get to the point with the therapy that I’m using to heal my diabetes! Everything began one day, about four centuries before Christ, when Hippocrates said: “Let food be your medicine, and medicine be your food.” I’ve always asked myself why traditional medicine considers Hippocrates as the “Father of Medicine”, even making medicine students take the Hippocratic oath before becoming “real” doctors who then completely forget how medicine should be according to him. Why hasn’t more research been done on nutrition to keep, treat and heal the body? After all, that’s what nature has put at our disposal. After 9 years of trying different therapies (low-carb diet, Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, Homeopathy…) I think I’ve found what is really helping my body achieve a better health, decrease the insulin dose, and have deep trust that I can, and I will, heal myself. It’s not that the other therapies don’t [...]
Today I wanted to give a trick that helps to stay focused on the goals we have in mind. Every year we plan things and we set goals. At the beginning we are confident and very focused on what we want. But over the days, weeks or months, depending on the individual, the strength of the conviction we had at the beginning fades. Until one day we no longer remember what we wanted. Well, there are little tricks to avoid that. Since I can’t, nor want, miss my goal, the day I started with the diet that is helping me cure my diabetes, I wrote with my wife’s lipstick on the bathroom mirror: “I’ll achieve it!” To which my wife wrote below: “Yes!” I chose that place because it’s something I watch every morning when I wake up. So every day I see it and I remember what my main [...]
Diabetes, sport, food, insulin … Hmm, I know these concepts are closely linked in reference to diabetes and we shouldn’t think of one without considering the others. I mention this because it seems that for now I’ll have to manage my health without one of them to help cure my diabetes, at least partially. As I said on a past post, I suffered a muscle strain in the quadriceps (actually it was broken) playing soccer. After having visited 2 times a physiotherapist and having received intensive massages that helped a lot, I thought I thought I would be able to do sport again soon. Yesterday morning, giving baby food to my son, I ducked and my qudriceps stretched again hurting a lot. I noticed that it will be a while until I can play sports again (well, at least I can go for a walk) It seems to me that [...]
As promised, here you have the latest statistics with the evolution of my blood sugar as well as injected insulin during the last month of diet to cure my diabetes type I. The amounts of insulin are shown per day, that is, that the day indicating 3 units of insulin, that is the sum of all the day (three meals). You notice that I’m particularly proud of this day, don’t you? Perhaps it’s worth mentioning too, that the last two weeks I wasn’t able to do sport, due to a muscle contracture in the leg happened playing soccer. When I can start exercising again, I’m sure it will improve my health even more, lowering sugar levels and insulin needs even further. By the way, the graphs in this post are taken from Sugarstats.com, a software service that provides online diabetes management, community support and collaborative sharing to motivate and improve [...]
This works! Yesterday I announced that today, if all went well, I would only put 1 unit of insulin. Well, today I come with the results. I’m proud to say that 1 unit insulin was enough for every meal! My blood sugar ranged between 60-94. And don’t think that I didn’t eat carbs. My breakfast has been: 80 grs. whole oats, 1/2 apple, 1 pineapple slice, 4 strawberries, walnuts and hazelnuts, all mixed in a muesli. My lunch: a large mixed salad with 80 grams lentil sprouts and melon and almonds as dessert. Dinner: Another large salad with 80 grams whole oats and almonds for dessert. If you sum up the carbohydrates contained in these meals and the tiny amount of insulin I needed, you can tell how well my body is reacting to the diet to cure my diabetes. I look forward to writing such good news in future [...]
Some of you may be wondering: if this blog is a journal about this guy’s diabetes cure, why isn’t he speaking more about it? And you are right. You have every reason in the world to question it. As you probably know, diabetes comes slowly and is also supposed to go away and heal slowly. In my case, I don’t see drastic changes every day or every week, but a gradual and continuous improvement. Funny, how one becomes conscious of his body when he cares and gives him what he needs. Now I notice the effects of each small change. For example, a stomachache or a herpes affect directly sugar levels in my body, rising them up a little (but since I started this diabetes diet / treatment my sugar has not passed 160!) Also, this time the lip herpes only lasted a week and has been very small. Another [...]
I was supposed to write about my 5th day on Juice Feasting last saturday, but I didn’t because I had to stop drinking those juices. After one week taking only vegetable juices, it seems that my body had enough, because I started getting a weird sensation in my stomach just thinking about the juices. Since my priority now is to listen to my body’s signals carefully, I decided that it was enough. My body didn’t want anymore. Maybe I wasn’t preparing the juices correctly or mixing the right vegetable combinations, I don’t know. The fact is, that I began slowly to introduce some solid vegetables, then salats and now salats with seeds, tahini with cucumber and nuts. Since my blood sugar levels while juicing were fine (without almost insulin intake at meals), I decided that my body would also be able to manage some salats and nuts without insulin. In [...]
Lets see the first results and conclusions of the first weeks following this diet that is helping me heal my diabetes type I. First of all, in order to show you that this is working, let me show you two features of my blood sugar levels and the insulin injected, one week before beginning with the diet until one week after.   I began with the diet on July 21st and, as you can see, one week before the blood sugar was having ups and downs, although without high peaks. That seemed to be more or less okay. Back then I was injecting 6-7 units of rapid-acting insulin for each meal and 14 units of low-acting insulin before going to bed. The interesting thing occurred the very first day I started the diet, since I could start reducing the insulin, one unit at a time, until just needing 1 [...]
Today I want to give a tip that can help us improve ourselves in any field. Visualisation is one of the most important techniques, and at the same time less known or used in order to get what we want in life. It’s something that athletes and elite sportsmen/women practice everyday before facing their exercises. And it seems that it works for them! But this technique can be used in whatever aspect of our life. If it works in sports, it will work for us as well! Here you have a video about how the pancreas works (with and without diabetes, with diabetes type I and diabetes type II) This way, once we have seen our pancreas “in action” with images (remember that our minds work with images), we will be able to use visualisation to imagine and “see” our body working the way we want it to work, that [...]
I know that by following information about a therapy that has been applied successfully on some patients, it is important to know what kind of patient he/she was and be familiar with his/her health situation. Therefore, I’m going to write, as briefly as possible, about the kind of patient I am. My name is Charly and I am 32 years old. I got diabetes 9 years ago, after three weeks of suffering the usual symptoms that indicate diabetes type I: extremely tired, very thirsty, need to urinate all the time, very hungry, eating lots of calories and sugar in order to „make up for“ being so tired and hungry (totally wrong!), and loss of 10 kg. until a weight of 62 kg. Being 186 cm tall, you can imagine how thin I was. Scared by the situation, I went to the hospital for two days, from where I left insulin-dependent, [...]
