HIGH BLOOD SUGAR IS AN INDICATION OF A MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM
POPULAR UNDERSTANDING:
Diabetics do not make enough insulin or the body does not use all the insulin it produces. Insulin is a hormone that assists the production of glucose (sugar) to be absorbed into cells and then converted to energy. The pancreas secretes enzymes that assist carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism. Once the pancreas is non-performing then digestive enzymes are not supplied for digestion. The condition imbalances the liver, gall bladder, spleen and all digestive related organs. In unmanaged diabetes, glucose and fats remain in the blood stream, where with time, the primary body’s digestive organs become impaired and eventually diseased.
DIABETIC STATISTICS:
- Seventeen million Americans are walking around with diabetes, and 200,000 people will die this year due to related complications. Diabetes sets up conditions for heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney failure, leg and foot amputations, pregnancy complications, and deaths related to flu and pneumonia. At risk, are the 5.9 million Americans who are unaware that they have the condition.
- We spend $100 Billion a year on diabetes, directly and indirectly. In 1997, the average health care cost for a person with diabetes was ,071, compared with ,699 for a person without diabetes.
- U.S. adults with diabetes increased 49% from 1990 to 2000. Increases are expected in the next decade and beyond.
- Diabetes is an epidemic. In 1990, there were only 4 U.S. states determined to be at epidemic levels. In 1995, the amount raised to 11. In 2000, there were only 6 states that were not at epidemic levels.
What happened to the other 44 states in 10 years? What is occuring in our country where a disease can over run us. We are being secretly invaded by a force greater than any terrorist group. Is anyone paying attention? That’s more than 15 million plus people caught in the grips of this top level threat to our country. Where’s the equal level response by our government and medical establishment?
UNDERLYING CAUSATION
While insulin production and all the relevant symptoms in the body is a concern, to rest here and just declare the pancreas is the source of the ailment is not enough. Its a key element but not the whole. Some other factors:
Diet & Elimination: While diet plays another primary role in the story, reducing protein, carbs and sugar, soundly, helps but there is more to the setting that needs to be acknowledged. The quality of our food is less nutritious. Our U.S. sources have exhausted the top soil quality. Instead of replenishing our land with our natural wastes like other longevity zones, the U.S. drains its precious elimination down the sewage lines to the oceans. As a result we have to look to natural sources of foods and diabetic herbs.
Life stressors: Stress wears down the life force. Are we experiencing more strain than our parents? Difficult to say. They survived World War II whereas we have been subjected to escalating undeclared wars, increasing amusement channels, artificially constructed anti-diseases,chemicals, taxes, etc. If, we try to live up to expectations and not restore ourselves (body, mind, spirit) then our adrenals-kidneys will become depleted which is the home of our vital energy production. The consequence is that all of our body organs do not have the vitality to maintain. Subsequently, body organs do not do their jobs and need to be restored not individually but systemically before further non-understood ailments surface.
Character: Our ability to interpret, positively or negatively, may have a lot to say about our ability to manage personal conflict. If we see things positively then our perceptions and response is that we are challenged and figure out solutions. When negative, then opportunities will be missed because we are strapped by fear. That high level of anxiety speeds up aging, perpetuates fear and opens the door to an unprotected immunity.We need to discover or relearn how to raise courage during taxing times. As we believe, we perceive, so shall our life follow.
