Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 While I know of many clients and other people who have followed raw food CLEANSING programs (very specific) and who have had their diabetes go into remission, I cannot say I am one of those people. However, I do offer a program to clients that can perhaps (everyone is different and compliance is paramount) assist in either stablizing your blood sugar or placing your diabetes into remission. As I stated, there is no cure for any degenerative disease only management of it. Please visit www.bodybyblisss.com and feel free to call me for a free consultation.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Yes, I have seen it many times. My best friend also healed her husbands diabetes in a month, on a lot raw and some cooked organic vegan. Please check out the e-book: http://www.truthpublishing.com/haltdiabetes_p/print-cat21267.htm Managing at a raw institute I always saw type 2 diabetes, even very very severe cases, respond 100% and very quickly. You may email me also at Schoolofrawk You are right for not wanting all the meat and cheese! You can do this, totally. I believe there is no reason for type 2 diabetes... You are on the right path.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Disagree - degenerative diseases, can, and are cured everyday; the body knows just how to do that. For diabetes, and all other sugar-metabolic disorders, start by cutting out the fat - all of the overt fat -- meat dairy nuts seeds oils avocadoes anything that has fat a leading portion of its calonutrient ratio makeup. Diabetes is *not* actually a " sugar " disease - it's a problem of too much fat in the bloodstream, coating everything, and making it impossible for the pancreas and its insulin to do their job. Remove the fat, and the insulin can do its job. Many people have been cured of diabetes (Type II) in just a few short months. best, Bob http://health.PathOfHealth rawfood , " Anne Kaspar " <bodybybliss wrote: > > While I know of many clients and other people who have followed raw food > CLEANSING programs (very specific) and who have had their diabetes go into > remission, I cannot say I am one of those people. > > However, I do offer a program to clients that can perhaps (everyone is > different and compliance is paramount) assist in either stablizing your > blood sugar or placing your diabetes into remission.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Hi Mstrong, make sure during your raw path of healing your diabetes that you continue to take he medicine you need until your doctor tells you your getting better to decrease it and then stop it all together. I also believe a raw diet can help diabetes. I have read many stories. mstrong56 <mstrong wrote: IS THERE ANYONE OUT > THERE THAT CURED THEIR DIABETES WITH A RAW DIET? YES, ME.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 That is wonderful, Congratulations!!! I am so impressed by what you and people like you are doing for yourselves! Would you recommend the Rave Diet or Eat to Live (or something completely different) for a 50 year old male on the S.A.D. finally tying to turn his health around? I am about 50 lbs overweight and have high cholesterol and some depression but other than that no significant problems-that I know of. I have been doing a lot of reading and lurking here for the past few of weeks. I was on meds for panic attacks up until about 6 weeks ago. Then I read an article about caffeine, I was drinking 10 plus cups of coffee a day and had been for the past 25-30 years. Well I now limit myself to 1 cup per day, take NO meds for Panic Attacks and have had NO panic attack symptoms for the last 4 weeks. So I now want to continue on this path. I certainly have a lot to learn and am not sure where to start. 2 weeks ago I tried going completely organic raw vegan. After day 2 I felt like I had a very bad flu (I am guessing this is some type of " healing crisis " ). So I stopped. I still am recovering from a deep cough which is much like the smokers cough I had prior to quiting about 6 years ago. So, I am looking for a place to start. Something with a menu plan for a few weeks would be ideal -I think. My apologies for this being so long. I only intended to ask that first question but once I got going some sort of outpouring seemed to want to occur.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Okay... yes, the reining gurus say cut out the fat. once you read further and further into what they say, they say cut out the wheat, the high glycemic foods (yes, in the beginning, people with sugar sensitivities have to ditch those -- most such people think *sugar*, *chocolate*, *sweet foods-- NOT fruits*, *desserts*, and so on) People with sugar sensitivities (most people with adult onset diabetes would fit into this category, as well as many other people who find it difficult to control their eating/weight, and, so, would be ideal candidates for adult onset diabetes) do not really need to hear that they can eat anything they want to eat as long as it is raw. Why? Because humans do what they want to do. A new raw foodist is as likely to backslide as not. Tell a sugar- sensitive to eat any fruit she or he wants to eat, and you have a person in sugar overload who will then likely go off the plan to eat more sugar-loaded food. Read the natural hygiene literature further and you find that high glycemic foods are, in fact, often proscribed in the beginning, for certain individuals. The technology which has led us to understand the concept of sugar sensitivity was not available to the early natural hygienists, but, equally, most of the " downfall foods " available to the modern eater were also not available. One of the problems with the low fat diet, as demonstrated in today's society (American) is that when fat is eliminated from processed food, sugar is increased, to compensate for the lack of flavor. People who are accustomed to a SAD diet are more than likely to add in sugars such as sweet fruits, honey, agave syrup, etc. (dangerous for sugar sensitives). They will do this because they do not read through the entire body of literature, just as those on this list who tout eliminating fat, or eating low fat diets suggest. The unfortunate upshot is that they are equally likely to overindulge in sweets and sweet fruits. In this, I speak from personal experience, as a sugar sensitive. Even knowing about natural hygiene, and basically following it in my diet plan, when I began to buy raw food cookbooks this year, I found a plethora of desserts and other foods which contained agave syrup, honey, maple syrup, or other so-called " raw " sweeteners, which I tried. The most interesting thing that I noticed was my increased appetite, as well as the corresponding weight increase, as I added in such foods. Clients of mine who have switched to raw foods, but tried to maintain a low fat diet, as suggested in most books, have found it difficult to a)stick to a raw diet and b) lose weight. Studies have shown that the human body needs approximately 27 grams of fat in a day. That is met by 3 T of flax seed. People who suffer from bipolar disorder, ADHD, chronic fatigue syndrome, etc., tend to react positively to a diet which includes the minimum (27 g) of good fats. Unfortunately, overweight people tend to believe that they should cut out all fats, and, so, they eliminate exactly what their bodies need, often in favor of foods which will not help them heal. Margaret I know myself, and I know about my sugar-sensitivity. rawfood , " Bob Farrell " <farrell.bob wrote: > > Disagree - degenerative diseases, can, and are cured everyday; the > body knows just how to do that. > > For diabetes, and all other sugar-metabolic disorders, start by > cutting out the fat - all of the overt fat -- > > meat > dairy > nuts > seeds > oils > avocadoes > > anything that has fat a leading portion of its calonutrient ratio makeup. > > Diabetes is *not* actually a " sugar " disease - it's a problem of too > much fat in the bloodstream, coating everything, and making it > impossible for the pancreas and its insulin to do their job.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 > Hi Mstrong, make sure during your raw path of healing your diabetes that you continue to take he medicine you need until your doctor tells you your getting better to decrease it and then stop it all together. I also believe a raw diet can help diabetes. I have read many stories. I take no meds of any sort. Some B-12 (vegan), some D, some DHA (from microalgae). My (vegan) MD does extensive blood tests 3x/yr and tweaks my vitamins. Someone else said " cure " is a strong word. I couldn't agree more. I am cured. I can eat sugar or (raw)papaya/bananna pudding or a few big baked potatos with a minor spike that settles right out. Do I make a habit of it? NO. It's what I do day in - day out that matters (massive amounts of dark leafy greens). I do like to occasionally pull out the blood meter and intentionally insult my system just to see how it's working (quite well). Get the crap off your ateries so what insulin you do have can get where it's trying to go. What makes a cell " insulin resistant " ? Being coated with a barrier of fat would be my guess.

OK, Someone like me that's serious. You sound like my clone. I'm happy to help. You will probably be descended upon by people selling miracle green food powders and such nonsense. They are not out to help you, just themselves. You are dead on in your thinking. Email me your USPS address and I'll send you a copy of the ravediet, or better yet go to www.ravediet.com and buy the DVD WITH the book, it's cheap as Mike is mostly an angry guy out to get the info to people and could care less about $$$. He has no products to sell (how refreshing). BEST DVD EVER. Made me switch totally in 10 minutes and I was hard core SAD diet guy. Watch it. ETL is Dr. Fuhrman www.drfuhrman.com his program is right in line with rave, china study and most serious research into disease reversal. Fuhrman is also my personal MD and a real scientist that reads and understands all the studies. You should buy his book (eat to live) and DVD (greatest diet). These things are the perfect way to get started, by serious intelligent people talking about what is real and proven, NOT what they wish were so. There is a whole lot of really bad science, old wives tales, etc., in the raw food movement. Stick to what reasonable, well educated, common sense people have to say. I've learned a lot in the year I have been doing this. For example there are the colon cleanse people (ugh). It has been pointed out to me that eating a ton of fiber as in kale, collards and other stuff that I liquefy into green smoothies, is like eating scotch brite pads and will clean you out and keep you that way just fine. Also, avoid all the " miracle foods " , you don't need them, almost everything you need is at the grocery store. The only miracle to these foods is how many stupid people part with so much money for them. You mentioned organic. It makes a difference in some things and not much difference in others. My friends at ewg.org have thoroughly researched this and published a list of what to only eat organic and what you can safely eat conventional. See http://www.foodnews.org You will need to watch B-12 a through discussion of this and other vegan health issues that is RELIABLE is at http://www.veganhealth.org/b12/ Good Luck, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 I am in agreement with Bob Farrell on this issue. Just cut out all the overt fats, and your diabetes will start to melt away. In fact, its not even necessary to become 100% to get this health benefit. Doing a low-fat vegan diet, say like McDougall, ought to handle the diabetes. But with a low fat raw diet like Dr Graham's 80/10/10, there will be an acceleration of health in multiple dimensions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 Working at Creative health Institute (www.creativehealthinstitute.com) I saw tons of diabetes reverse it. Diabetes is one of the easiest diseases to reverse, it responds instantly to diet (type 2) My friend Nicole reversed her husband's diagnosis in WEEKS, and his BS was over 300, fasting. It is " gone " as long as he eats a certain way---and that includes tons of delicious foods! Yes, you may follow the RAVE diet, or Furhman's. They are similar. I would recommend this e-book: http://www.truthpublishing.com/haltdiabetes_p/yprint-cat21267.htm I have not read it but I have read about the author and it is all in alignment with a raw vegan diet and herbs and natural healing. It can't hurt. Would you believe I mentioned that book on the diabetes 2 board and I got booted off because they don't want to hear that they are curable? I mean, that is the actual reason they gave! So, stick with this group. ;-) You can totally improve your health and feel GREAT. Nobody is too old to start. I saw a severe 84 yr old diabetic improve drastically over the course of a mere 12 days.... Go for it!

Why is there even the question that diabetes cannot be reversed? My father cured his back in the 60's through a cooked (cringe...:>)) diet! All he did was cut out all junk and most fats. It's the most obvious disease that can be cured through diet, as compared to say others such as lupus and arthritis, which also respond well to dietary changes.

" Body can do anything, given WHAT IT NEEDS. All you need is some good direction, education and discipline. Body will bring you " back to health. " Another good choice for A VERY THOROUGH EDUCATION on rawfoods is Chidiet, Jum Carey's program for about $500.00. VERY COMPREHENSIVE, but should teach you everything you need to know about raw. Again, quite an educational tool. Many books available too - anything by Gabriel Cousins or Brian Clements is highly recommended. Just know raw foods is split into many factions - you will need to reseach WHAT WILL RESONANT WITH YOU, so you can do it, achieve success.

Also, offering to give RAVE away for FREE, is considered spamming. How I profit from this elludes me. Seems all these board moderators want is to endlessly keep people in victim mode, discussing dangerous, nasty side effect, life long treatments that don't work. Obviously, none of these people pay me to send folks their way, I'm just enthusiastic after being personally cured of diabetes and heart disease this simple way and I'm pissed off at how simple it is and want to spread the info to those willing to do a little work and take personal responsibility for their health. Many are willing but need a start. Just doing my part (maybe a bit more) to help the inevitable avalance of people rejecting the food industry poisons and adopting healthy organic, non-GMO, plant based diets.

It's insidious, diabolical, and heinous to deny that dis-ease can be reversed. It most certainly can be done through healthy living, which includes eating living foods, but also includes taking care of the bodymind through exercise, meditating, and having the mindset to not allow emotional reactions and upsets. How many people, books, and movies are going to have to espouse these facts before the rest of the world is going to wake up? People are still being muted, harassed, thrown in jail, and having licenses revoked for attempting to tell the truth. It reminds me of Galileo Galilei, who was put on house arrest for publishing the heretical information regarding a helio-centric solar system. He was later exonerated, when everyone came to their senses. In 1992. Melanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Melanie - the general population will always take the easier, softer way - a pill, a potion, a shot...... You have no idea how many people exclaim to me " I'd rather die than eat the way you do. " And you know what, some of them have died. My own father and mother to be precise. They thought I was a " health nut " . Well, my father died of colon cancer at 66 and my mother was dead 4 years later at 72 of liver failure. A medical doctor even told her to stop eating meat and dairy, but she " couldn't " . Her exact words were, " I can't stop drinking milk, I'm a Swede. " What the happyheck that had to do with anything is beyond me, I didn't want to get into it with her. My last memory of her in our family home was her sitting on the couch with many of my vegan cook books (this was even before we went raw!) spread around her. She was just so miserable because " I can't eat this, I can't eat that, I can't go to lunch with Pat, I can't, I can't, I can't... " She was so ingrained in the negative she never saw the positive. She never saw she could have lived longer and seen her grandkids graduate. She could have seen greatgrand babies that came pretty quickly after she was gone. All her cousins, who are Swedes by the way, are still alive so I just don't think she would have gone so young had she changed a few things. I miss her so very much. Oh, don't know where that came from, but thanks for listening. The other thing I wanted to add was we changed our diet over night. The week after my father died I started reading " Diet for a New America " and went vegetarian immediately. Shortly thereafter we became involved with EarthSave and met John Robbins and we went vegan. Mom's illness was a long time process and we were in the process of going raw when I discovered she had been in liver failure for years (another doctor misdiagnosis). I will be 57 in a couple weeks and my husband is 62. We both are still healthy, active, and he still works a physical job. Neither one of us take any medications whatsoever. None. We have not had an antibiotic in our household in 22 years, our children have not been immunized, neither has the dog (I get more grief over that than the kids!). People still don't get it. They ask how we keep our health and when we tell them they run screaming from the room! Figuratively speaking. So this has turned into a lot longer post than I had anticipated when I sat down and read your message. All in all people will change when they are sick and tired of being sick and tired and for some that day never comes. Off to see what I've got for a green smoothie this morning.

It's medical fascism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 There was a new doctor at our local hospital-- she came here from Germany-- who was a diabetes specialist who taught people how to heal themselves with diet. The hospital fired her. Pathetic, but people are slowly wising up a little bit. Not much though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad, and I'm sorry you lost your parents so early. It's interesting (strange, morbid, etc.) how people only want to see the negative. I find that a lot, too. I just don't get that people don't understand how important diet is in their overall health. It's obvious! Isn't it? Is it just me? I am also amazed at the people posting that they have been kicked off and out of groups for even mentioning the things that have worked for thousands of others.
