The raw food diet and a special kind of macrobiotic diet are just two ways to reverse diabetes. Though results are not assured because each case is different. Reason being that individual variables are many as overall health condition, allergies, capacity to metabolize certain nutrients and stress level plays a significant part. These below techniques apply mainly to Type 2 diabetes. This can as well be beneficial to diabetes Type 1 sufferers. All these approaches are to your general health and immune system too.



There Are Some Steps to Naturally Diabetes Reversing



* Number one step is to consult your doctor before making any change to your diet or any medications.



* The second step is to eat low-glycemic, organic, vegan, live raw foods. You have to choose foods that are grown in a hale and hearty way, with the least amount of chemicals. Meaning you should eat directly from nature. Also drink green juices of your liking, which are low-glycemic and full of nutrients to boost your immune system.



* The third step is to stay away from alcohol, refined foods, fast food, dairy, meat, caffeine, junk food, candy and sugar. Diabetic's body need not to process complex fats and chemically unhealthy products and substances.



* The four step is to eat three meals and two/three snacks every day to keep up your metabolism.



You can make use of your juicer to make leafy green, apple and ginger juices to snack on and clean your system. Again choose your raw food combinations to make your juices keep up low-glycemic content.



* The fifth step is to exercise on a daily basis for 30-60 minutes, if possible cardiovascular activities, like walking or running.



Another Steps to Reverse Diabetes With Macrobiotic Diet for Diabetic



* Number one step: The dissimilarity between this kind of diabetic diet and the other diet is that foods here are, for the most part, cooked. In addition, the macrobiotic diet is based on the yin/yang principles applied to food and need some basic knowledge to get significant results.



* The second step is to choose healthy, unrefined, organic, whole foods. Prepare them and combine them in line with the macrobiotic guidelines.



A pressure cooker can be used to cook grains and beans to the correct degree while maintaining their strongest nutritional effect. Each type of grain, bean and vegetable should be cooked in line with the macrobiotic guidelines.



* The third step is to stay away from shellfish, all dairy foods, all animal food including red meat and red meat fish, all sweet foods and drinks, tomatoes, vinegar, fruit, melon potatoes, eggplants and all mushrooms.



* The number four step is that your every day nutrition must be low in fat and have protein and simple carbohydrates. Your main foods should contain brown rice (short, medium or long grain), millet, buckwheat, and combinations of rice/millet/buckwheat, sweet brown rice, azuki beans and rice and gomashio (roasted sesame seeds and sea salt, in a 3-to-1 or 5-to-1 proportion). Numerous side dishes are available, like shio kombu (seaweed), tekka miso, kabucha and other winter squash, and miso pickles.



* The fifth step: A specific edition of the macrobiotic diet is designed to have a stronger effect in the reversal of diabetes.



Diabetics should eat is brown rice only with 100 grams of potimarron (kombucha squash)and 50 grams of azuki beans on a daily basis. You may make use of your pressure cooker for best results.

What is Diabetes?



Diabetes is a condition when the pancreas cannot make any or enough Insulin in our immune system.



There are various types of diabetes; the most common are:



• Type 1 Diabetes - The effects from the body's failure to produce insulin naturally and require an external source usually done by injection of insulin.



• Type 2 Diabetes - The effects from insulin resistance, a condition in which the cells fail to use insulin produced properly. Eventually, the amount of glucose in the blood increases while the cells are starved of energy.



Glucose is our body main source of fuel, which comes from the foodstuff that we consumed daily. It enters our blood stream and is needed by our body cell for energy.



To use glucose, our body needs Insulin. Insulin is a hormone produced in pancreas naturally. It is important and it enables our cells to absorb glucose from our blood stream to turn them into energy.



If the body cells do not absorb the glucose from the blood, the glucose accumulates in the blood resulted to a high blood sugar level. The ideal blood glucose level should be in the range from 4.0mmol/L to 7.0mmol/L (72mg/dL to 126mg/dL). Reading above the range can lead to vascular, nerve and other health complications.



Facts



As of today, diabetic patients among the world populations are estimated to be more than 180 million and it is projected to increase by double in Year 2030 as new economies develop.



Juvenile diabetes appears to be due to defective gene that causes self destruction of insulin producing cells in the pancreas. Insulin must then be taken regularly to support life.



On the other hand, the Adult inception of diabetes appears to be due to suppression or inhibition of normal pancreas production. Being middle age, overweight, lacking of exercise and consuming large amount of refined sugar and dietary fat (more than 20% of daily calories) is the typical consequences. Usually insulin is unnecessary but a pancreatic stimulant drug is often prescribed.



Risk



People with diabetes are at higher risk of health complications that involve damage to small blood vessels and nerves that can affect the eyes retina known as (diabetic retinopathy) and eventually lead to blindness. Moreover, the small blood vessels can also affect the kidneys, make damages to the kidneys known as (diabetic nephropathy), and leading to kidney failure that needs for dialysis.



These people are also at a greater risk of developing hardening of large arteries (atherosclerosis), which can result in a heart attack, stroke, or poor blood flow to the legs. Some people with diabetes who develop (peripheral neuropathy); can cause damage to the nerves in the legs and have poor blood flow to the legs may eventually need an amputation.



It is known that the more affluent a society, the incidence of diabetes is higher as compared to underdeveloped nations. So, it is the modern lifestyle and dietary that is affecting and influencing the Diabetes condition, causing people to suffer from this sickness. Study has shown that over-weights and obesity have higher than normal level of blood glucose; are facing a stronger risk for type 2 diabetes.



Cure



Currently, patients who visit doctor for treatment are prescribed the most common type of drug known as Metformin. How effective is the administration of Drugs for curing Diabetes? It can never be cured if the root cause of the problem is not dealt with. Diabetes is more a symptom rather than a disease; it is a sign telling us that the immune system is confronted.



The better approach to the treatment of Blood Glucose lies in the belief of getting back our immune system to natural state by cleansing, getting rid of toxics that are taxing the body cells and to enable the pancreas to reproduce Insulin naturally again.



A program of healthy dietary and physical activities; life style change, is more superior to consuming pharmaceutical Drugs. Do not think of taking more Diabetes Drugs!

You First Need To Change Your Mindset



Traditional medicine teaches you to "manage" your diabetes. Everything in traditional treatment revolves around "controlling" your blood sugar. You will need a radical shift in how you approach things if you want to reverse your diabetes. "Managing the disease" and "controlling blood sugar" is not going to cure diabetes! Curing diabetes is a very obtainable goal but in order to reach that goal you must first make it your primary goal - NOT just controlling blood sugar. You need to get down to the root causes of the disease and fix THOSE. If you do this, your blood sugar will go down naturally.



Food Can Be Medicine and It Can Be Poison



Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician, is known for saying, "Let food be thy medicine and let thy medicine be food." Food can literally cure disease or it can cause disease, depending on what you eat. People with diabetes have damaged their cell membranes through years/decades of eating toxic foods... and no, I'm NOT talking about sugar or fat. The endocrine system of diabetics is damaged and their hormones are out of balance. Eating the right food and eliminating toxic food like trans fat is literally like taking the right medicine and it will literally put you on the fast track to reversing your diabetes.



Start Taking Better Care of Your Emotional and Mental Health



When most people think about getting healthy and curing disease, they automatically focus on their physical health. However, you need to understand that your emotional and mental health very directly and emphatically affect your physical health. In fact, emotional and mental stress is the #1 overlooked cause of diabetes. Research has clearly shown that stress causes insulin resistance. It causes an increase in stress-related hormones which over time cause diabetes. Reducing stress will help cure your diabetes.



Exercise More But Not Necessarily In the Traditional Sense



It has been well proven that exercise can help with reversing diabetes. However, if you haven't exercised for a long time, the idea of starting to exercise may seem daunting. If you are feeling this way, I want you to remember that exercise does not have to be a high energy activity like jogging, lifting weights, or aerobics. Research has shown that just a small amount of low-impact exercise can reap a huge benefit. Just a simple walk in your neighborhood, a little yard work, or just getting out of the house doing light activities can make a world of difference.



Dig Deeper, Pay Attention To Details, and Don't Be Fooled By the Over-Simplification of Facts



If you get the right information, you will have the power to cure diabetes. You need to start digging deeper and understanding that details matter. Don't accept everything at face value. Don't rely on what you read in magazines or on the internet. The popular press often glosses over pertinent information - information that you need to really make a plan work. The press often omits important details and they almost always over-simplify to the point of not giving you all the information you actually need. You need to seek more detailed information whenever possible. You need to understand how important this is.



Take Good Care of Your Soul and Spirit



For some people this means being involved in organized religion. For others, however, this may mean something quite different: learning to take time to smell the roses, reconnecting with family and friends, pursuing hobbies that bring you great joy, visiting places that give you a sense of internal peace, exploring the wonders of nature, meditation, listening to 30 minutes a day of music you love, adopting a pet to share your life with, etc... Only you can decide what lifts your spirit and nurtures your soul. The point that I am making is that you need to make this one of the highest priorities in your life and don't let anything stand in your way of doing so.



Be An Active Participant In Your Own Diabetes Cure



Most people that have cured their diabetes have one thing in common: they took charge of their own destiny. If you want to reverse diabetes, It is extremely important that you do not blindly follow what your doctor (or anyone) tells you. Your doctor should be an important adviser to you but he/she should not be running the show - YOU need to be the one in charge. The opinions and approaches of doctors vary widely. Some doctors are more compatible with the goal of curing diabetes naturally than others. If you find that your current doctor is resistant to this idea, it is probably in your best interest to shop for a new doctor.
