Reveal the cures, please…?8

After visiting this category for a little while, I am intrigued. I see a number of patients with supposedly incurable illnesses that I understand some of you know the cures for….PLEASE share the knowledge with me. What is the cure for diabetes type 1 and type 2? Osteoarthritis? Asthma? Emphysema? Multiple Sclerosis?

I have read many, many times so far that there are actual, total, 100% CURES for "almost all" disease…

I can’t think of any reason that you would not want to share these with me. I consider myself an open minded person (heck, I believe in and utilize spinal manipulation, after all) and I would be DELIGHTED to start curing these heretofore chronically ill people. If your cures actually work – I will become a strong advocate from WITHIN the "traditional western medical" comunity!!

It’s a win-win proposition…..so come on – tell me the cures…..
No – I am really NOT being sarcastic. After having seen people on here repeatedly claiming that there are CURES (not preventions, but CURES) – I really and truly want to know. I have seen the Kevin Trudeau infomercial but confess I have not read his Miracle Cure book… He clearly and unambiguously states that there are CURES for these things and many others.

Mr Nair – I am well aware of the traditional treatments for these things as I am a physician.

Unlike my MD counterparts – I utilize methods (manioulation) that many of THEM sneer at – so I am very open to "alternatives".

I am extending a hand from the "traditional world" to the "alternative one" – I am hoping for meaningful answers – not new age mumbo-jumbo,
noabuse – so, in other words – you have absolutely nothing constructive to add?
Know the Cause – you always sound very angry….Here is your chance to let the secret out that you claim "Big Pharma" is supressing….HERE’S YOUR CHANCE………tell me a cure for any of those things…….I don’t understand why any of you people won’t share this info that you seem so interested in getting to the masses….it just doesn’t make any sense to me.
noabuse – like I said – nothing constructive to add. I often wonder about people who, instead of building their OWN case – concentrates on tearing down another’s.

I am sorry that you are not willing to share your knowledge with me.
Know the Cause: "…I am living proof that natural cures are out there…"

Please share your natural cure with us…

Good question!

This truly is a win-win situation. If no one answers then we will know they don’t work. If someone, especially with detail, answers then [seemingly] we got a cure!

I am a believer in holistic medicines (mind you haters) and I really think the best solution is PREVENTION. Practing rather HEALTH and preparing will be able to stop it all. Like the tridosha practice in Ayurveda and the 3 treasures in Taoism, we need to take care of ourselves from the start. Cure is prevention. People don’t take care of themselves and drive themselves to these chronic health problems.

The thing about conventional medicine is that it can rid of long standing health problems that alternative medicine cannot. The alternative medicine doesn’t focus on symptoms where it is right in some cases. I don’t know why it wouldn’t go there…

gangadharan nair- The questionstionare asked for cures not treatments…

Rhys M- Well I think you must have done something to upset the Qi of your body. Either not taking care of yourself or not taking care of yourself properly. A person needs to make sure their Qi as reflected in their Aura is free-flowing.

what are the symptoms, cures, and treatments for diabetes?5

diabetes type 2, or 1 what ever?

What Is It?
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition in which the body cannot successfully convert sugar into energy for tissue and organ cells. A person with diabetes will have abnormally high levels of blood sugar, especially after consuming starchy foods like rice, potatoes, and bread. Diabetes can affect both men and women at any age. Even children can develop cases of diabetes. There are three types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and type 3.

Types
Type 1 diabetes occurs as a result of an autoimmune condition. The pancreas is unable to produce enough insulin, and as a result, glucose builds up in the bloodstream. It is unknown what causes type 1 diabetes.

Genetics, viruses, and autoimmune conditions can cause type 1 diabetes to occur. With type 2 diabetes, a person’s fat, liver, and muscle tissue do not respond properly to insulin. As a result, the pancreas produces more and more insulin while sugar builds up in the blood at the same time. Type 2 diabetes is related to genetics, diet, exercise, and obesity. Type 3 diabetes occurs when the brain signals insulin production to stop, resulting in damage to the brain cells and central nervous system.

Symptoms & Warning Signs
The most common symptoms are frequent urination, increased thirst, and increased fluid intake. Other symptoms include blurred vision, feelings of irritability, severe fatigue, unexpected weight loss, feelings of extreme hunger, irritation of the skin in the genital area, and slower healing of superficial wounds. Weight loss tends to be seen most commonly with Type 1 diabetes. Unlike type 1 diabetes, the symptoms for type 2 diabetes develop very slowly.

Causes & Risk Factors
The exact cause of diabetes is unclear, but several risk factors are evident. People are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes if they eat a diet that is high in fat, are overweight, or have a family history of diabetes. Age is also a risk factor.

Prevention & Treatment
Patients can prevent type 2 diabetes by following a well balanced diet and by maintaining a regular exercise routine. Patients of type 1 diabetes may need to take insulin injections. Treatment may also be necessary for complications including heart problems, kidney failure, pancreas problems, and infections.

Tests & Diagnosis
A urinalysis is the first level of testing and can show glucose levels in addition to how fat is broken down. Blood glucose tests (fasting and non-fasting) can provide a more detailed breakdown of whether the person has diabetes.

There are so far no cures for diabetes.

Anyone tried Budwig diet to lower or cure Type II Diabetes ?5

I have read on some information on Budwig diet and it indicated that it can sure Type 2 Diabates if strictly followed. Anyone with diabetes has tried this ?
I am just diagonised with diabetes and my first blood test showed fasting sugar of 132 but when I checked with glucometer in a week after the above test it showed 125. I year ago my blood sugar was 98. I am now looking aggressively if I can get my blood sugar below 110.

Also, while I read about Budwig diet I thought it is worth giving it a try. So also want to check if anyone has experience with it. Remember, as some people pointed out that for Budwig diet to be successful, you not only have to take this special diet for few weeks or months depending on how high your sugar levels are, but also have to avoid all non-organic food and other oils, eggs, etc that have lots of saturated fats.

Anyone who has tried it, please chime in with your experience.
I would appreciate answers from anyone who has tried this protocol. Not from people who claim to have "common sense" and so on.
I would appreciate answers from anyone who has tried this protocol.

I’ve heard of the Budwig protocol being used for cancer & I’m sure it’s fine for diabetes but it’s not something you can do for a few weeks & be "cured" of diabetes. It does work because it replaces carbs with good healthy fats but if you end it & go back to carbs, you will regain your health problems.

Dr.Richard Bernstein (the diabetes specialist & a type 1 diabetic) from his book, "Diabetes Solutions" pertinent chapters available to read online -

What if I, a physician, told you, a diabetic, to eat a diet that consisted of 60 percent sugar, 20 percent protein, and 20 percent fat? More than likely, you’d think I was insane. I’d think I was insane, and I would never make this suggestion to a diabetic (nor would I even make it to a nondiabetic). But this is just the diet the ADA recommended to diabetics for decades.

Whether you eat a piece of the nuttiest whole-grain bread, drink a Coke, or have mashed potatoes, the effect on blood glucose levels is essentially the same— blood sugar rises, fast. … our saliva can break starches into the shorter chains on contact and then convert those into pure glucose.

With a number of important exceptions, carbohydrates, or foods derived primarily from plant sources that are starches, grains, and fruits, have the same ultimate effect on blood glucose levels that table sugar does.

http://www.diabetes-book.com/book/chapter9_3.shtml

All carbs (even vegetables) are converted to sugar (glucose) in the body. Posted below is a fascinating interview with Dr.Richard Bernstein (the diabetes specialist & a type 1 diabetic) on youtube where he demonstrated how whole grain bread turned to glucose within one second in his mouth! He says the exact thing would happen with corn or an apple as well.

Dr. Joe Prendergast, an endocrinologist /diabetologist has managed over 1500 diabetic patients and, in the last decade, not one of his patients has had a stroke or heart attack. Only one has even been hospitalized! His secret—50,000 units of Vitamin D3 daily. Dr. Joe further reports:

http://enews.endocrinemetabolic.com/2008/05/vitamin-dthe-cure-for-many-diseases.html

SEVEN REASONS TO EAT MORE SATURATED FATS -

1) Improved cardiovascular risk factors

Saturated fat in the diet reduces the levels of lipoprotein (a) abbreviated Lp(a)—that correlates strongly with risk for heart disease. The only dietary means of lowering Lp(a) is eating saturated fat. Eating fats raises the level of HDL, the so-called good cholesterol.

2) Stronger bones

Saturated fat is required for calcium to be incorporated into bone – According to expert in human health, Mary Enig, Ph.D., as much as 50 percent of the fats in the diet should be saturated fats.

3) Improved liver health
Studies show that saturated fat encourages the liver cells to dump fat content. Saturated fat has been shown to protect the liver from the toxic insults of alcohol & medications and even to reverse the damage.

4) Healthy lungs

For proper function, the airspaces of the lungs have to be coated with a thin layer of lung surfactant. The fat content of lung surfactant is 100 percent saturated fatty acids. Replacement of these critical fats by other types of fat makes faulty surfactant & potentially causes breathing difficulties, collapse of the airspaces & respiratory distress.

5) Healthy brain

Your brain is mainly made of fat & cholesterol. Though highly unsaturated essential fatty acids found in cold-water fish (EPA & DHA) are important for brain & nerve function, most of the fatty acids in the brain are actually saturated. The brain needs saturated fats to function optimally.

6) Proper nerve signaling

Certain saturated fats, found in butter, lard, coconut oil, & palm oil, function directly as signaling messengers that influence the metabolism. Without the correct signals to tell the organs & glands what to do, the job gets done improperly.

7) Strong immune system

Saturated fats found in butter & coconut oil (myristic acid & lauric acid) play key roles in immune health. Loss of sufficient saturated fatty acids in the white blood cells hampers their ability to recognize & destroy foreign invaders, such as viruses, bacteria, & fungi. Myristic & lauric acid have potent germ-killing ability. We need dietary replenishment of them to keep the immune system vigilant against the development of cancerous cells & infectious invaders.

Should Ins. companies pay for gastric bypass surgery if lives are at risk and the surgeryis there best hope?2

Gastric Bypass surgery ( roux en Y ) has now been proven through long term studies to cure type 2 diabetes in 95 percent of patients. Reported on MSNBC

I have had gastric bypass surgery and belong to a Yahoo group for support. They are now doing surgeries on people who are not overweight to cure diabetes. The cure rate is so high. What we believe really doesn’t matter. Insurance companies are slow to start covering anything that costs them money. Some policies even list GBS as an exclusion.

Besides, if you haven’t researched the procedure, most people think it is a surgery that makes it easy to lose weight. That is so far from the truth. In reality I have to watch every single day to be sure that I get all the nutrients I need. People die of malnutrition by not watching what they eat after this surgery, not that that’s very common because we learn how important eating correctly effects our life.

So the person who answered your question stating that this surgery has not been proven to cure diabetes is incorrect. The hormone in the lower section of your stomach no longer interacts with any food. That’s what the cure is about, not about what you eat after surgery.

Can diabetic neuropathy for type 2 diabetes be cured ?5


I cured mine. I was falling down about three times a week, because the message from my brain didn’t get through to my knee.

"Japanese scientists have identified a form of vitamin B-12 that protects against neurological disease and aging by a unique mechanism that differs from current therapies."

"Some of the disorders that may be preventable or treatable with this natural vitamin therapy, called methylcobalamin, include chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson’s disease, peripheral neuropathies, Alzheimer’s disease, muscular dystrophy and neurological aging. Americans have immediate access to this unique and new form of vitamin B-12, and, unlike prescription drugs, it costs very little and is free of side effects."

I used 30,000 mcg/day for ten days and then 10,000 to 15,000 mcg/day. It took a couple of months, but now has been over six months since I have fallen.

Type 2 Diabetes researchers?1

Does anyone know of at least 20 scientists (their names) trying to find the cure for type 2 Diabetes? Ones that are alive and working?

Look on the American Diabetes web site and JDRF web site (although JDRF is more concerned with type 2).
You may not find this information because a lot of the research is done by pharmaceutical companies, and insulin pump companies like Medtronic and not by individual researchers. There are teams of people working on the various aspects of diabetes within these big corporations.

Okay, Everyone PLZ take this seriously.?13

Me and a Group of people are trying to put on a charity concert in Kentucky. And we have taken polls and the bands people want to get with in these 2-3 concerts are: The Jonas Brothers, Jordan Pruitt, Pushplay, Vanessa Hudgens, Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana, Billy Ray Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Flyleaf, and Demi and Dallas Lovato. I have a few connections to Pushplay, but I need connections to Hollywood Records to make this happen.

Any Ideas on how to get ahold of Hollywood Records, Pushplay, Taylor Swift or Vanessa Hudgens?

It would be greatly appriciated.

All the money raised goes to an Environmental Charity and a Cure for type 1 diabetes charity. Please Help.
i know that nick has diabetes, I just asked mandy(jonas bff) about this whole thing and she said that Jordan Pruitt, Pushplay, and especially the Jonas Brothers may be interested! But this isn’t for MY charity (i dont have one) this is to donate to already excisting charities, and i have asked a few, and they are interested!!!

But I know I will not get all of these bands, but if I get the Jonas Brothers or Pushplay, I am sure we can raise a lot!

You have to call their production companies, agents or bookers. If you go to their official websites or look on the CD jackets you’ll see small print on that.

Blessings on your concert idea.

I Need Help Revising Part Of My Speech. Could Anyone Help Correct It For Me??2

This doesn’t mean that caffeine is completely bad for you, it all depends on if you take in the right amount. The good side of caffeine is that it helps people to become more alert, making it useful to stay awake, and reduce fatigue. Besides giving us the energy to wake up early in the morning, it also makes us think faster, improves our physical performance, treats headaches, increases the effects of some medications, improves short-term memory, and speeds up reaction time. In a 2003 study published in the Journal of Pain, it states that
you should take caffeine one hour before exercise in order to reduce muscle soreness. Caffeine may also help to prevent Parkinson’s disease, helps you to make better decisions, elevate your mood, cure skin cancer (in mice), help prevent type 2 diabetes, and liver disease, such as liver cancer.

Therefore, the next time you pick up a cup of coffee or any other caffeinated products, you will be more aware and knowledgeable about what you put in your body.

I learned this a long time ago: teachers don’t necessarily like when students use the word YOU. Think of your audience. You are speaking to anyone interested about caffiene, right? So narrow it down to either saying "it all depends on if one takes the right amount…. or an individual, and so forth. It’s not much, but I hope this helped. Help me with mine now?

What do you think of my letter to friends and family asking for jdrf donations?3

Dear Friends and Family,

On Saturday, October 20th, I will be walking in the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes, along with my church youth group, friends and family. As you may know I have juvenile diabetes and I am insulin dependant. As a result my life is far from normal. My daily routine is on a constant schedule in order to stay healthy. I check my blood sugar 5 to 8 times a day and I’m constantly pumping insulin through my pump site which I change every 2-3 days. This equates to approximately 2,920 finger sticks and 183 pump site changes every year. Since I have been diagnosed, I have poked my finger over 9,592,200 times, taken 7,300 shots, and inserted insulin pump sites 1,278 times. And this will continue for the rest of my life unless a cure is found.

I am the only one in my family with type 1 diabetes. Most people don’t know that it can strike any family and that you can never “grow out of it”. I will be insulin dependant for life. Every day I put great effort into doing things I do not want to do and hoping I do not develop the complications associated with diabetes. You see, the longer I have diabetes the more likely I am to develop complications such as kidney disease, blindness, heart disease, stroke, and nerve damage leading to amputation. Even if I do everything I am supposed to, I can still develop these complications. A cure is the only way out.

My team has come together to set a goal of $1,000 and we would like to ask for your support by sending a tax-deductible contribution to us that we can submit to JDRF on that day. Please help me and the millions of other kids fight diabetes and find a cure.

JDRF gives more resources to diabetes research than any nonprofit, nongovernmental organization in the world. Over 80% of every dollar raised by JDRF is channeled directly into research efforts. Since 1970, they have provided over $900 million to diabetes research.

Please support us by making your check payable to “JDRF” and mail it to my address by October 19th. Thank you for your donations and words of support. We are very grateful!!!

I wish I had more thumbs so I could put them all up. It was compelling, emotive and tax deductible

I am sending mental spring for your legs
Good Luck (c;

Do you think it’s diabetes?6

I am 10 years old. I’m a girl. I am 90 pounds. Anyway, in January (early), two hours after eating chocolate pudding, my random finger prick thingie was 124. I do have a fruity (strawberry-banana) taste in my mouth, weakness, and i’ve been getting alot of fevers. I HATE going to the doctor, and i’m deathly afraid of needles. I have perfect vision, and the only foot infection was when I picked my toenail and got an infection, which was like 4 years ago, and got cured quickly. I’m afraid of amputation. What should I do? My mom is 100% posotive I don’t have it. I pee every 4-6 hours. On my mom’s side, 4 or 5 people have/had diabetes (type 2) and on my dad’s side, 2-3 (type 2). My cousin’s friend, when she was diagnosed, had 600. What could MY symptoms be, besides diabetes? I’m not underweight, i’m a stong (muscular armed) 10 year old, who is 90 pounds. I am also 4′10. Remember, 10 points for best answer. Thanks
* I haven’t brushed my teeth in like 3 days…oops…and I have a sore throat, and my mom said that’s probably why I have the weird fruit taste. It dosen’t taste that sweet, it tasted like a rotten strawberry banana taste! No one in our family has/had type 1.
*I DID, like 5 minutes ago, which developed last night, has a fruity taste in my mouth…that just went away!!
* I have no feet problems, except I do have a big space between my big toe and second toe. But, that’s how I was born. It’s on both feet. My feet always smell bad..lol…but we DO sweat! I polish my toes like most girls do, and I keep my feet clean.

type 1 diabetes is classified by increased thirst, increased hunger, and increased urination. Hunny you would be peeing at least 2-3 liters a day. the approximately 2-3 quarts. 124 is a very normal blood sugar, nothing wrong with that at all. type 2 diabetes, which i think you are much to thin to have, has basically the same 3 symptoms as type 1. type 1 you lose weight even though you are increasing the amount of food you are eating. i don’t think there is anything wrong with you. eat healthy and exercise and you probably will never have to worry about diabetes.
