Most people say, paint, tiles for computers, phones. But do those things really affect you? What’s something that would cause people to protest, something so crucial that the government cant tell us, Something that I haven’t really seen in comments…I believe its medicine. Im probably wrong but, my theory is that its just a idea that will probably give you only 50% chance of helping you. Is that why natural medicine is significantly better? Is it just to make the government or company’s look good? Is it to give society a sort of closure, or is it for money? If you think about it, medicine like pills, vaccines and etc cost a lot of money, and is somewhat crucial to society. If we were to find out that they put plastic, or glitter in one of our most important products. That would cause a huge problem. It would cause an outbreak and is that why they dont tell us? When your teacher ask “if you were on a stranded island, what’s the first thing you would bring?” You might think Water, food, maybe even weapons. But you can get and find a way to filter water, you can last without food, you can even make your own weapons, but what is one thing that you cant easily get…medicine. A med kit is what one would say. Its not like you know exactly how to make natural medicine, you might even make your infection or situation worst. This shows the importance of medicine, and how its one of the most controversial topics around. one of my familly member has problems with their health and stopped taking her Medicine. They started drinking things like green juices and more natual medicine. She had diabetes and the next time she went to her doctor, they said her diabetes was gone. If it is in medicine and the glitter is plastic, is that why they dont tell us? I’m most likley diving too deep into this, but thats my theory
TL;DR

As someone who is diabetic myself, and has thus studied quite a bit about how it works, I would need a whole lot more proof to think that statement is anything more than B.S. I assume this is Type 2 Diabetes being talked about (not inherent, but acquired later in life). It can be controlled with drugs, diet, and weight loss/excercise, but it doesn't just disappear. The underlying glucose intolerance is still there. I don't see how you could *tell* if the intolerance (i.e. the disease) was gone. The regular A1C test only tells you your average blood glucose over the last three months, and therefore if the combination of drugs, etc you are doing are keeping blood sugar low enough to not damage the body over time.

You would need a different set of tests, which they don't normally do, to measure the glucose spike that happens after eating sugary stuff. That means hanging around the lab for hours for multiple blood sugar readings, or doing a series of home tests over hours at home after going *off* the prescriptions long enough for their effects to wear off. But in that case you aren't going to the doctor, you are finding out for yourself at home.

I know this was your first post, and you don't know the forum culture, but we have a low tolerance for spammers and B.S. So the onus is on you to back up your statement or we will consider you the type to ignore.
I don't know - since it is an insulin resistance in type II, not a glucose intolerance [basically, we eat too many carbs, for too long, and our body starts demanding more, and isn't processing it properly], avoiding insulin spikes long enough will fix the insulin issues. I know, I've mostly done it [need to prolly go back to kept/fasting once my arm heals from surgery - but because of fibro and gerd, not my blood sugar] I got my NP to add insulin to my regular blood tests, my A1C is not quite normal, but its closer than it ever was with the old way of 'you have to eat carbs to keep your blood sugar from crashing' - in fact the only other time it was close I was restricted to eating protein shakes [with sugar], Chef Boyardee, and cottage cheese - and that's with an infection that required me to do IV antibiotics at home for a month and a half [I think - I was on opiates for almost a year with that mess.]

If you or anyone else wants a Dr's take on this, look for Jason Fung on You-tube - he's a kidney specialist, and its been mostly his advice I've been following over the past 3-4 years, and it has helped a lot.
