Reframing T2D , turning mountains into molehills

Governments and Health organization around the world seems alarmed at the escalating financial burden that obesity and T2D that is crushing the health systems. One would think thatthey would be more ready to explore and embrace all available solutions that offers to resolve and relief these chronic health issues...but the sad reality is that they remain committed to "evidenced based" solutions peddled by the food and pharma industries. "Eat less, move more", "Low fat, healthy balanced whole grain diet" is the common misdirection.

An approach that has resulted with this
"CONCLUSIONS In community settings, remission of type 2 diabetes does occur without bariatric surgery, but it is very rare."
http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/early/2014/09/12/dc14-0874

The 7-year cumulative incidence of partial, complete, or prolonged remission was 1.47% (1.40–1.54%), 0.14% (0.12–0.16%), and 0.007% (0.003–0.020%), respectively.

Fortunately in recent years a small but growing group of physicians around the whole have come to realize the misinformation and misdirections regarding metabolic health and chronic illnesses. For over 4 decades we have been told that saturated fats and over consumption of calories are driving us to metabolic oblivion...and it is only reversible thru extreme medical procedures, wide concoction of drugs and will power that can scale the highest mountain. The efforts and cost of restoring us seems...insurmountable.

That is until we are given the necessary information about maintaining metabolic balance. When we realize that a lifestyle that lowers our insulin need sets our fats free...The mountains that seems so insurmountable gradually melts away into a molehill...

T2D and obesity isn't really about glucose and using all kinds of pharmacological agents to reduce our glucose levels. It is about knowing the interaction of carbs, insulin, fats, fasting and ketosis. That simply maintaining a lower level of circulating insulin enable us to access the fats that has been locked away for years.

And the many low carb, low insulin advocates....helped me reduced my HbA1c from 11% to 5.5% within 3 months.

And come to the conclusion that we can turn mountains into molehills...
