Seriously? Here's some FaCts:

Type 2 diabetes accounts for approximately 90% to 95% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes; type 1 diabetes accounts for approximately 5-10%

And type 2 diabetes can be put into remission at any stage of the disease, or do you think there is only one path: ever increasing insulin shots, amputation and death?

In the 70s total diabetes as a measure of population was 1%. Its now over 10% and can you guess what type has been the main "lifestyle" disease?

Type 1 was never a death sentence. The original "treatment" was ... low/no carb in the 1800s.

But that's besides the point, Diabetics are never even told that they can restore insulin sensitivity and/or put the disease into remission. Its just more pills and injections.

Lets see:

  • Option 1: Doctors provide plans for patients to reduce their carbohydrate intake, pushing their diabetes into remission; or
  • Option 2: Doctors listen to pharma reps that "this is the next big thing", they ceate another billion or 2x or 3x Billion pill and patients continue treating diabetes as a progressive disease that slowly takes toes, feet, eyes and legs.

What'll it be Jimmy? Door number 1 or door number 2?
