John – Day 2
Jay is a cancer survivor and lost a kidney. In the process, the tumor damaged his pancreas and he got Type 1 diabetes. He took insulin for nearly 10 years without anybody telling him about the power of a good diet. His doctors allowed him to eat crazy foods as long as he took his shots.
He believed the lie that insulin is harmless and would take care of everything. But for those 10 years, Jay felt “sick.” He was just so happy to have escaped cancer that it seemed like an acceptable trade off. So, he’d eat with friends, entertain guests at dinner, but he’d retire after an hour or two to sleep. That’s what all his diabetic friends did. And after all, he had dodged the cancer bullet.
Imagine the disconnect when he came to see me! I explained that insulin wasn’t a “cure all” and that he was still in trouble. He needed 65 units of Lente and still all that regular insulin! Despite an A1C of 8.3, this was totally fine with his endocrinologists.
Today, Jay has completely revised his lifestyle consistent with the The 30-Day Diabetes Cure. He doesn’t nap anymore. He goes to the gym and doesn’t eat a crazy meal afterwards. And one might wonder, if after all this self-destructive behavior condoned by the conventional doctors, could he turn this around? Yes. Even after years of high sugars, he was able to significantly reduce his insulin and lose 20 pounds with a healthy diet.
