Control type 1 - reverse type 2 diabetes with plant based diet


Transforming health by correcting the diet seems too simple, doesn't it?  Maybe it seems a little radical.  Perhaps it looks like quackery to some folks.  However, eating plant-based is less time consuming than checking blood sugar levels all day long, less expensive than paying the doctor and hospital, and more effective in protecting precious organs and limbs than drug therapy.  

A person in poor health has the perfect motivation necessary to take health back.  Sick people can experience renewed health through the life-saving approach of a nutritional, plant-based diet.  Michael Goldberg explains how he has seen people - who have not had diabetes as long as he - suffer from all sorts of health complications such as vision loss, obesity and amputation.  Now THAT is radical!

Dr. Barnard, in the following video, explains the concept of molecular mimicry as a possible trigger for type 1 diabetes which  is a result of destroyed pancreatic tissue.  Studies first made a connection between cow's milk and insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type 1 childhood diabetes) back in the early 1990's.  Recent studies reveal that the elimination of childhood exposure to cow's milk protein can greatly decrease the chance of type 1 diabetes.

Gut Check: Choose health, not junk!

CBS This Morning featured a health spot called "Gut Check" today.  The topic of beneficial bacteria is a key point for improving overall health for people of all ages.  The standard American diet is filled with meat, dairy, sweets, fat and refined carbohydrates.  These foods slow the digestive tract, contribute to the growth of inflammatory "bad" bacteria, reduce the good neurotransmitter production which benefits mental health, makes the body very acidic, and destroys the immune system.  The story on CBS This Morning highlighted the negative effects of bad bacteria being linked to diabetes, obesity and inflammation.

Mac & Cheese - no soy, no dairy, gluten free, delish!

Image
Before changing to a plant based diet, we used to eat a big pan of mac and cheese every week.  It was comfort food for me.  I felt determined to find a healthy alternative to this family favorite and came up with this recipe that doesn't call for nutritional yeast, soy or other seasoning additives which are high in glutamic acids - which result in a bad case of hiccups or heartburn and indigestion.  See what you think!  I wonder how long before I see a version of this recipe on some other plant based site!  :P Mac & Cheese plant-based style 24 oz GF brown rice macaroni 3 cups cauliflower, chopped 4 cloves garlic, chopped 1 onion, chopped 2 cups raw cashews, toasted (toasting is very important for the flavor) 2 T vinegar 1/2 tsp turmeric 1/4 tsp black pepper 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder 1-2 tsp salt - add  to desired taste  after blending "cheese"  Boil macaroni according to directions on package, drain and set aside.  While maca...

The controversy of Gardasil

Image
This topic does not specifically target dietary issues, but rather a need to be well informed in order to perform an act of self-defense.  Please consider and weigh the options when faced with a vaccination decision.  The following videos and links barely brush the surface of information available.  Whatever you choose to do, vaccinate or not, do it as a well informed individual. Dr. Pam Popper: Children's Health, Diet and IQ and Advice about Gardasil http://www.wellnessforum.com/ When a mystery illness of 12 New York school girls hit the news, there were many health scenarios posed as possible causes.  Shortly after the EPA and other agencies were called in to investigate and substance abuse eliminated, the story went silent and we have heard nothing of the possible conclusions.  Listen to the news broadcast on the following link as a few "experts" evaluate the mystery illness.  Notice, in the interviews, the comments about the girls having something ...
