Jubilant Creature lifestyle

The Sugar Control lifestyle.

Controls: Diabetes II and Hyperactivity. Aids with: anti aging, plus weight loss.

We are intended to be happy healthy jubilant creatures where our bodies thrive in its naturally intended rhythm.

Unfortunately, we often do unnatural acts to our bodies not in tune with nature. This causes us to become physically sick and unhappy miserable creatures. Our misery includes being forced to take diabetes pills, injecting ourselves with insulin and forcing Ritalin type drugs on our children.

The below jubilant lifestyle goals may give one insight and direction to have ones body return to its lost natural rhythm:

_______________________________________

Due to the fact we often eat the wrong foods, not sleep enough, nor exercise plus lingering viruses and sickness we either live with; or have not yet completely overcome, -over time our adrenal glands; that produces most of our hormones, gets out of its proper rhythm.

The result of our hormones being out of balance is for one with type 2 diabetes to have too much “free fatty acid” in our blood and one develops “leptin resistance” which causes a vicious cycle of weight gain and high blood sugar. As a result we age quicker and are more susceptible to illness and disease. Our livers become inflamed and toxic.

The goal of this lifestyle is to get our adrenals back into rhythm and have our hormones work the way they ought to -which enables one to control diabetes, weight gain and rapid aging.(It would also help hyperactivity in children)

__________________________________________

This lifestyle emphasizes three goals; namely- Eating Correctly, Supplementation, and Exercise.

I- Proper Eating:

GOAL: Always Keep Your Glycimic Load Level Low- by intaking and eating only low glycimic foods, taking supplements, and always exercising.

Concentrate on your Sugar load reduction-

As a “goal” try to only Eat 1,200-1,500 calories a day ________________________________________

Goal-Avoid foods that “always and routinely makes sugar soar high”; namely the higher Glycimic load carbohydrates.

In essence, why be forced to take insulin, diabetic pills, or Ritalin to lower your sugar?

Why have ones child in a hyperactive state if one can feed ones child properly avoiding spikes in high sugar that sensitive kids cannot deal with??

One must “at least think about”what foods to avoid that makes our sugar soar high and what we can substitute in foods to keep our sugar more in balance.

DRUGS, INSULIN AND RITALIN would not be necessary if one simply avoided raising their sugar to begin with by: only eating and consuming low Glycimic load carbohydrate foods with your 3 meals a day and by eating ones proper amount of Protein per day (in grams).

In addition, on should include the intake of special blood sugar lowering foods and supplements

(herbs, vitamins, minerals, amino acids) that “naturally” lower ones sugar.

This idea also helps hyperactivity in children. Why raise a child’s sugar so high unnecessarily so that a child must live on drugs like Ritalin?

Furthermore; it is important to exercise as it lowers sugar levels and burns calories. (Children must also exercise)

Avoid all high sugar Glycimic load carbohydrate foods in your 3 meals a day.

We must learn to NOT keep routinely raising our sugar WITHOUT EVEN THINKING ABOUT IT.

One must: Read all labels as to “how many grams of sugar is in a product” to include drinks.

This includes juice drinks –often given to children.

As an example: “Sunny-D” has around 27 grams of sugar and only 5% juice. (It also has many calories). It is a high glycimic carb drink.

–This product should not be given to kids with hyperactivity (water is best solution). At least dilute “Sunny D” by adding ½ water.

Diet Soda sweetened with “Splenda” is another alternative to give kids until they are slowly taken off all sugary drinks and urged to drink water.

Always dilute apple juice by ½ water.

PROTEIN- applies to adults and children

The right minimum amount: 1 gram of protein per body weight is needed per day. If you weigh 190 pounds your goal should be to eat 190 grams of protein.

EAT (Low Fat) PROTEIN- Eggs, Chicken, fish, 7 Turkey, Beans, low fat meats are best.

The Secret: Why eating protein makes a person loose weight and helps control blood sugar !!!!!

“Protein- builds lien Muscle”.

Lien Muscle burns sugar and fat even when you are resting!!!!!!!!

Note: Protein does not raise your sugar levels.

Note: Protein helps one feel satisfied and not hungry.

If you do not eat enough protein in your diet, or with supplementation your body will crave and get the protein it needs from your existing muscles. YOU WILL BE BURNING UP YOUR MUSCLE

(IF YOU FEEL SORE A DAY AFTER DOING HOUSEHOLD CHORES OR EXTRA- EXERTING YOURSELF EVEN A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN USUALL IT IS BECAUSE YOU ARE PROTEIN DEPRIVED. DO THE SAME TASK WHILE EATING MORE PROTEIN AND YOU WILL NOT FEEL SORE-TRY IT)

Most diabetics and people today have no lien muscle, or very little because they do not eat enough protein !!!!

If you have No lien muscle, sugar and fat is not burned and you will KEEP storing the fat and get worse diabetes. Children will have to take more Ritalin and other drugs to deal with the sugar their brains cannot process.

Protein; also has the amino acids that the brain needs for neurotransmitters in the brain to function properly. Protein in essence is; also, an important brain food. (This is important particularly for children who should have protein every day before going to school)

It is crucial and very Important to realize that “There is a problem with getting enough grams of protein that one needs per day from food we eat”.

UNLIKE IN THE PAST OUR DIET TODAY IS NOT BASED ON EATING PROTEIN IT IS BASED ON EATING HIGH GLYCIMIC CARBS.

IN ADDITION THE PROTEIN WE DO EAT DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH GRAMS OF PROTEIN PER BODY WEIGHT THAT WE NEED.

(WHEY PROTEIN SOLVES THIS PROBLEM AND WILL BE DESCRIBED BELOW)

As an example OF THE PROBLEM:

1 EGG HAS only 7 GRAMS OF PROTEIN !

If one weighs 190 pounds one would have to eat at least 27 eggs a day to eat ones protein needs.

A PERSON NEEDS 1 GRAM OF PROTEIN PER BODY WEIGHT PER DAY (In this example 190 grams of protein) 27 eggs X 7 grams =190 pounds.

Therefore YOUR Goal: Always question whether you are eating enough protein.

Here are some examples of food products and their protein content:

Fresh- Turkey burger 20 grams.

Fresh- ¼ pound lien hamburger 20 grams

Fresh- ¼ piece of fresh chicken 22 grams

Fresh- 1 average fresh fish 22 grams.

Fresh- Fat free milk 9-10 grams –(has sugar)

TUNA CAN ABOUT 22 GRAMS

Sardines about 21 grams

Tofu 9 grams per serving

1 slice American cheese 4 grams

Frozen- Burger 9 grams

Frozen- Turkey 9 grams

In the old days we always ate abundant amounts of fresh chicken, cheese, fish, steaks, liver, egg omelets for breakfast, and turkey in almost every daily meal.

This is why people use to get enough protein.

People use to cook the above fresh foods. (Less women worked, stayed home and cooked meals. Today we have no time to cook and the above foods are more expensive.

Today we live on high glycimic carbs and protein is more expensive.

Note above how the “fresh” items have more protein.

TO SOLVE THE “modern day Protein problem” DO THIS:

Note: “Even when not doing exercise” do the following to boost protein levels:

1) Whey protein powder:

Whey protein powder has 22 grams per scoop (usually 22-26) and is the key to increase your protein to proper levels.

Have up to 2 scoops in the AM and 2 scoops in the evening mix with water.

This way you will have around 88 grams of protein a day to begin with. 22 X 4 = 88 grams.

Get the rest of your grams of protein from food keeping in mind that fresh protein food has more grams of protein than frozen.

Whey protein has very little sugar and comes in vanilla and chocolate flavors it has few calories.

ADD THIS TO YOUR WHEY PROTEIN MIX:

2) Glutamine powder:

Take 1 teaspoon in AM and PM. 4,500 mg each teaspoon Glutamine powder.

Glutamine powder:

A) stops sugar craving.

B) helps muscles recover after exertion like housework or working out at the gym.

C)helps CHILDREN WITH ADD/ ADHD .

Children that weigh around 50 lbs.- SHOULD TAKE:

½ TEASPOON of Glutamine powder in the AM before school with 1 scoop of whey protein -and another ½ Glutamine powder and one scoop of whey protein in the evening. (AROUND 3,000 MG GLUTAMINE per day 44 grams protein whey)

Glutamine (powder) has the amino acids that the brain needs for neurotransmitters in the brain to function properly.

(200 mg of Magnesium is also recommended for hyperactive/ ADD children per day)

Snack slice up lite salt

Celery

Fresh Garlic

Green Peppers

Spinach

No Tomatoes or Carrots, onions

No raisins

(Onions raise sugar)

SALAD DRESSING:

Use Spices on Salad- instead of dressing or with a tablespoon of dressing. Try this trick: First sprinkle Garlic or Sage powder on your salad. Now put one tablespoon of your dressing over the powder. The powder will make the dressing stick to it and you can use a lot less dressing. Try low calorie low fat dressings.

Note: If you eat salad with no dressing after a few weeks you will begin to taste the natural tastes of your salad and not need any dressing. Test this out it works.

Cut up squares of Tofu

Garlic Powder ( Not Garlic Salt)

Onion Powder

SAGE Powder

1 spoon lite dressing over spice powder

Salsa can be put on Salad instead of dressing- very low calory

Cut up apricots 2 pieces

Apple Cider Vinegar can be used.

Ken’s steakhouse lite Rasberry Walnut Vinegreete. Put spoonful on salad after using Garlic powder. Put this on Tofu

Suggestion At the start

Eat more of all blood sugar lowering foods/spices-more often.

Idea-

Snack on Fresh Parsley,

Drink cinnamon tea /Buy Splenda Packets

Eat Okra –Snack (add salsa heat)

Heat- Green Peas, Green Beans, Collard Greens- (Snack or side) add Parkay butter spray

Eat Walnuts

Use Sage Powder on Salads and other foods

Brew Green Tea/ use Splenda

Eat various beans 3 tablespoon full of beans at a time only- (high carb but helps regulate blood sugar)

Eat Salads with Frozen vegetables, Beans as sides. Eggs chicken, Turkey, Fish, and Meat as main dish. Chile can be a main dish or side.

Try to increase Protein intake to at least 110-160 grams per day. Read all labels. Protein will increase your lien body muscle . Note 1 gram = 1,000 mg. Target goal is 1 gram of protein per body weight. EXERCISE; also, CREATES LIEN MUSCLE

_________________________________________________________________

Use for flavor

Mustard

Salsa

Spices

Fresh garlic

Parkay /no Calorie like Butter Spray (supermarkets- like Publix)

Good to spray on frozen vegetables

Hot sauce-Louisiana

Apple Butter/ Jams to brush on /chicken /turkey/ fish

Horse Radish

Avoid high glycimic foods that will make your sugar soar: Examples-

Avoid eating with your “three meals” a day:

All sugar- even natural sugar

Salt-Sodium-look on all labels avoid high sodium

All fruits, Bananas, Corn, Grapes

ALL CEREALS, and Oatmeal

All Rice and Pasta

ALL BREAD/ CRACKERS /PRETZELS ETC.

ALL foods TO INCREASE FIBER Note- salads, beans and frozen vegetables will give you enough fiber.

No Tomatoes or Carrots, onions. Carrots can be in a frozen blend. (Do not buy bags of carrots you will eat them all. Tomatoes you will eat them all too)

No Bagels- worst thing that raises sugar!

No white potatoes/or French Fries 2^nd worst thing that raises sugar!

(If you must eat French fries buy the thin ones and deep fry in olive oil at home)

No raisins.

Avoid V-8 drink (all are loaded with sodium)

Avoid Ice cream -with no sugar added -still has sugar

Avoid sodium- read labels of everything you buy

Note salt is as bad as sugar for you use it only a bit.

Avoid the food pyramid- It will kill you

Note: 40 Grapes is the same as eating a candy bar.

If you want to and must eat a high glycemic food:

You can eat the above higher glycimic foods “alone by itself” 3 hours after you eat a high protein low glycimic carbohydrate meal. Around 10 AM . 4 PM and 9 PM.

After you eat the higher glycimic food do not eat anything else for another two hours after you eat the high glycimic carbohydrate food.

Example: Eat an apple by itself and nothing else for two hours after you eat the apple. The apple should be eaten 3 hours after your meal.

Best idea and goal: It is better to eat foods on the above list only on occasion and at these specific times after one realizes they are not healthy food choices.

Why is the above a good idea? It is based on how our bodies work and deals with food we have just eaten:

Learn this fact. It Explains everything:

After one eats a meal blood sugars will soar and rise. Only after 2 hours has the sugar lowered enough to eat more.

As a result, if you keep eating high glycimic foods within the two hours, you will have soaring up high sugar levels which the body has had no time to lower. Eventually you will feel tired and your body will shut you down. -Hyperglycemia

II. Sugar TESTING Rules:

Below will teach you- How to be your own guinea pig and laboratory rat plus learn about your individual body’s reaction to sugar:

NOTE:Checking Sugar: After changing your lifestyle for about three weeks and eating the way you ought to, you will discover that there is no need to do blood testing anymore .

You will see that your sugar is around 180 2 hours after you eat the above foods and is going down. You will have learned how your body reacts all the time to certain foods.

After the 3 week period: Only test on special occasions Such as when and if you are sick or feel tired. This testing is only done to prove to yourself that –“the way you feel has nothing to do with your blood sugar level”.

“Never go by how I feel” and eat -check your blood.

Again never just assume your sugar must be low because of how I feel and eat like a pig. If you do you will never control your diabetes.

_______________________________________________

A1C diabetic blood test

It is crucial every 3 months go to your doctor for an A1C diabetic blood test that will tell you the average sugar for that past 3 month period. If it is below, or at 7.0 you do not need to take pills or insulin.

Make sure you Ask your doctor for the actual number. Ask your doctor for a copy of your blood test and read it. 99% of doctors do not want you to know about the results of this test they should be doing routinely. Do not be ignorant ask them what your average blood was. 6.5-7.0 is normal. Get another doctor if they will not talk to you. Do this ASAP.

Because this A1C test exists one does not have to check their blood every day and keep a record in the little book Doctor’s use to give you.

Secret is out: No Doctors look at this book you keep anymore they only look at the result of you’re A1 C test. That is why they are making you test every 3 months!!!!!

TESTING FOR THE INITIAL 3 week PERIOD:

1) Before you eat. Sugar should be between 90-130

2) 2 hours after you eat –sugar should be going down by now. Sugar should be around 180.

____________________________________________

3) Those taking insulin already - Only take insulin two hours after you eat after checking if your sugar is high between 150-180 or more. (or what number your doctor told you).

(-Make sure your Doctor is asked the sugar level “number” your sugar should be at before you take more insulin, or eat- never take insulin blindly like every 4 hours)-always check your sugar level first. If your doctor never told you these numbers get another doctor.)

As an example-If your sugar is at 120 and you take insulin or pills you will feel very tired because you will be making your sugar go even lower -too low.

_______________________________________

4) Check Sugar in morning before you eat. If sugar is above 130 already eat a bit less, and more of the low glycemic foods listed in this document.

5) Check Sugar before you go to sleep. If sugar is super low below 110 eat a little bit-This will be very rare!!!!

6) if you feel generally tired, or are sick-do not eat to feel better first check your sugar. Most probably your sugar is above 180 and you ate too much.

You will find that your sugar is the right number most of the time if you follow this lifestyle and that you feel the way you do because you are just really tired or sick , or your sugar is too high-you ate too much already.

BE Your own guinea pig (LAB RAT):

7) Experiment on yourself for 2 weeks- a must way to learn about yourself and foods!

A. You must and should test individual foods to learn how your individual body reacts to different foods for about 2 weeks.

Testing food Idea:-How it works:

Let us take Oatmeal as an example. Check your sugar -lets say it is 130 before you are going to eat- a bowl of oatmeal.

Now eat one bowl of oatmeal and nothing else for two hours. Now Check your blood two hours after you ate the oatmeal. Is it 180 ??? If it is 180 then you know it is okay for you to eat one bowl of oatmeal with nothing else.

If it is 200 never eat a full bowl of oatmeal, or eat ½ half a bowl and test plus see what your number is. The number will be about ½ lower as you ate ½ less.

B) IDEA-Now do the same type of test the next day with one apple. Find out what your sugar is 2 hours after you eat one apple -try other foods.

Conclusion: Once I learn how specific foods react in my individual system I can eat them by themselves without other foods and know what my sugar will be two hours later.-in this way you can eat some of these other foods outside of my 3 meals a day.

8) Exercise blood testing important! IDEA- Check your blood before an exercise workout and after the workout and see how much the workout is lowering your sugar.

Only do this Exercise blood test once (or twice) to prove to yourself what I am writing is true (not every time you work out)- Remember this is a one, or two time experiment you will learn from about yourself.

You will be shocked to learn that a 1 hour workout does not lower sugar a very big amount.

Very important exercise RULE 1: Do not eat a lot before exercise (big meal) assuming you will burn it off or to avoid -the myth of low blood sugar hypoglycemia.

If you eat a big meal before you work out it is better not to work out at all.

See more about workouts below and what to eat before a workout:

______________________________________

The above “experiment testing” will teach you how your body is reacting to: individual foods, exercise, and generally with sugar. Once you know this you can add these individual foods you tested as a snack in your new lifestyle keeping in mind what you know about how each of these foods react 2 hours after you eat them that is how they will react in your individual system.

___________________________________________

Sugar too high rule:

7) Eat less of the wrong foods if your sugar is high, eat more of the foods in this document-plus include sugar lowering foods EX: walnuts . Drink a lot more water. Exercise.

Remember Exercise does lower sugar-take a walk at least

__________________________________________

III. Feeling tired rules-

1) Do not eat to feel un-tired

2) Check your blood sugar. Only eat if your blood sugar level is very, very low below 110.

3) Do not automatically assume you have low sugar hypoglycemia and eat immediately. Never do this. Your sugar will go way up.

4) You may actually just be tired. Take a nap. (Children should take naps.)

5) If you sugar level is okay (not below 110) now is the time to exercise .

6) Exercise doing aerobics for at least 15 -30 minutes. This will get you untired. Test this idea out at least and you will see it works. The reason for this is that your sugar was too high burn it off and feel great.

7) Note Diabetics get tired when their sugar is too high above 180.See below

IV. How to workout

Before & after workout-Eat some:

1) Before: Eat Low Gycimic load Complex Carbohydrates

For energy before workout:

Eat: 1 and ½ hour before your workout

a. about 100 calories worth, or 40 grams of low glycimic carbs no more.

b. Eat at least 22 grams of protein. (1 scoop whey). Otherwise your lien muscle gets burned up. 2 SCOOPS IS BETTER. /OR 1 SCOOP WITH plus milk which has 9 GRAMS PROTEIN)

c. Take one teaspoon of Glutamine powder.

The above will give you the energy to do your workout.

d. (Some people take “creatine powder” that pumps up the muscles. It is good to take it with fat free milk as milk has both protein and has some sugar (Milk-12- GRAMS OF Sugar 9 protein per cup- to help the creatine powder work). Creatine is made up of arginine, glycine and methionine.

Note: Some people: if you do not take the creatine “with a sugary drink” you may get “diarrhea” if this is the case you should drink apple or grape juice (up t0 27 grams sugar with the creatine (People react differently to creatine)

Low Glycimic load Complex Carbohydrates Examples of:

Nuts & seeds. Cashews, Peanuts, almonds.

Matzah- (with Parkay spray) (28 grams of Carbs per 1 Matzah) Suggest you smear matzah with 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter for more protein.

Cabbage

Okra

Beans -3 tablespoons full only

Eggplant

Brussel sprouts

Yogurt-low fat with aspertame

Dried apricots 3 med =12 grms carbs 51 calories

Peanut Butter

2)After: a workout of 1 hour

a) “within 1 hour”. Drink Whey Protein. Big bottle. 2 lbs 2 scoops add water. 44 grams

Otherwise if you do not drink whey protein within 1 hour after your workout your lien muscle gets burned up. Your body needs immediate protein after a workout.

b) Take Glutamine powder- 45000 mg 2 times a day. Reduces food cravings helps build muscle- Take one of the 2 times a day after your workout. Take this even on days you do not work out twice a day.

c) Some people take creatine 1 teaspoon again as described above.

Conclusion & idea: Get a tall plastic water bottle. Mix 1-2 scoops of whey protein, 1 teaspoon of glutamine powder, 1 teaspoon of creatine powder with 1 cup of milk. Seal the bottle and shake it up plus drink. You will have about 50 grams of protein before your workout. Also, Eat 40 grams of carbs 1- 1/2 hour before your workout. Make another shake after your workout and drink within 1 hour after your workout.

The Workout itself

½ hour to 1 hour 5 days a week:

1) minimum ½ hour to 1 hour of aerobics- Most important burns sugar. ( one hour is really the minimum as it takes ½ hour to burn existing sugar and another ½ hour to burn stored sugar). Leptin resistance only starts to dissipate after 40 minutes of aerobic exercise.

2) Do light weights even 10-20 lbs at first ½ hour to 45 minutes which is better (3 times a week.)

Note: It is better to do the weight resistance exercise first and then aerobics if doing a combined workout.

Note: Suggestion: 1 day aerobics 1 hour the next day weight resistance for 1 hour.

Weight resistance exercise-Muscles need 1 day to recover so do different muscle groups each day.

______________________________________________

MUSIC & Exercise Crucial advise:

Buy a cheap mp3 player for music while you workout.

Invest in a $30 MP3 player. Load about 30 of your favorite songs.

Most computers have Windows Media Player. Ask someone how to use it. One puts their music CD’s into their computer and can then stick their Mp3 player into the computer and put the songs on the mp3 player. Buy good headphones. Suggests disco music or music with a beat during your workout.

Taking a walk is another good exercise especially with your MP3 player.

V. Sleep- at least 7- 8 hours this helps lower blood sugar. Take melatonin if you cannot sleep. Sleep greatly reduces leptin resistence.

If you feel tired check your sugar level. You may actually be tired and not need to eat to raise sugar levels. You probably have eaten too much and have high sugar hypoglycemia- do not eat

Do not assume when you are tired that you have low sugar hypoglycemia and will collapse. This is the biggest lie and mistake we make and are convinced to be aware of. Low sugar Hypoglycemia-is a myth !!!!! Check your sugar if you are tired. See Below about the Hypoglycemia myth.

Take a nap. Do not be afraid you will sleep 8 hours and get out of your sleep time rhythm. You will be surprised that you will nap for ½ to 1 hour and wake up totally refreshed for hours. TRY IT

VI- Glycemia- rollercoaster

When one gets diabetes it is like you entered to ride a rollercoaster that you will never get off –the Name of this rollercoaster is-“The Glycemia”

How to ride -“The Glycemia”-key change your lifestyle: and learn the following

VERY LOW and HIGH Glycemia explained:

1) Very Low Hypoglycemia

Rule number 1:Extremely very very Low sugar Hypoglycemia-is a myth and very uncommon !!!!!

Feeling sleepy cause your sugar is way too low below 110. Doctors warn patients to eat 5 small meals a day to avoid this looming threat of collapse. Do not believe them. Always keep your sugar around between 110 before, AND 180 2 hours after eating using this lifestyle.

WHY LOW HYPOGLYCEMIA IS A MYTH!

I ATE TOO MUCH FOR YEARS FOR FEAR OF THIS MYTH INCLUDING EATING A BIG MEAL BEFORE GOING TO THE GYM

Think- If Extremely very very low blood sugar hypoglycemia were true then everywhere you go, every single day, where there are large amounts of people someone would be fainting FROM LOW SUGAR HYPOGLYCEMIA like at a supermarket, a ball game, or in traffic.

-It never ever happens!!!! It is a myth-

Most important Never eat automatically assuming your sugar is obviously low. Check your blood. Once you check a few times you will understand what I am writing and have no need to check.

Hypoglycemia- never eat five meals a day to avoid it. Your sugar will remain high-always. If you do not believe me eat the 5 meals and check your sugar.

Logic: If you eat 5 meals a day to avoid the hypoglycemia myth your body will never have the 2 hours necessary to naturally PROCESS AND lower your sugar.

EATING 5 MEALS A DAY IS LIKE CONSTANLY ADDING GASOLINE TO AN ALREADY BURNING FIRE. THE FIRE WILL ALWAYS FLAME UP AND SOAR. HIGH CARBS -SUGAR IS THE FUEL YOU WILL BE ADDING.

If you do not believe me check your sugar when you think your sugar is low. Only if it is 110 should you eat to increase your sugar. This never happens. Test yourself. Do not assume your sugar is low.

Logical thought: Very Low sugar Hypoglycemia must mean a person who has ate so little that they have no fuel like a car fuel tank on empty is this you??? Of Course not.

Very Low sugar Hypoglycemia is perhaps for type 1 diabetics that took too much insulin, or for someone who is fasting a long while for some odd reason.

Medication -lowering sugar medicines- Some doctors both prescribe pills that lower ones sugar (like glyburide) along with other pills that sensitize the body to insulin like (Metformin). Ask your doctor what type of pills you are taking . Most doctors do not prescribe both types of pills at the same time if they do your sugar can become too low if you take the lowering drugs.

Note: You will die early if you continue with these doctors. These pills stop working over time and you will then be put on insulin have a heart attack or amputations.

2) Very high Glycemia explained:

High sugar Glycemia happens when you ate too much high glycimic foods without any protein and your sugar is soaring high and you will get sleepy. Above 180 2 hours after you ate.

This is what you as a diabetic are feeling most of the time when you are tired- do not eat. It particularly happens after dinner does it not?? After you first ate snacks and then dinner??? I bet! Stop this practice and you will not be forced to take a nap after dinner.

Do not fool yourself to say oh I ate too little- Check your blood a few times to see.

______________________________________

KEY to get off the rollercoaster and slow it down: New Lifestyle eat only low glycemic carbs with your meals, much more protein and workout if you can. Take supplements.

Snack on occasion: One can eat higher glycemic sugar carbs one at a time after one tests these food individually eating them separately. Example 1 Bagel in the AM with nothing else that AM.

VII Supplements:

When to take them: Good to take pills right before you eat to absorb them:

Anti- inflammatory liver help-Detoxify your liver

Your liver may be inflamed due to many causes.( viruses –herpes- plus poisons we consume like Trans Fats etc.) The liver controls where your free fatty acid goes and will turn it into visceral fat around your belly if the liver is not working properly:

Ask you doctor to do a “C Reactive Protein Test” (CRP) to see if you have inflammation.

The following helps the liver:

1)Milk thistle 600 mg day

2)Cystein 1,200 mg day

3)Turmeric up to 3.8 grams a day- (Very important one) reduces fibrinogen levels (inflammation)-this is being developed into a drug to treat diabetics.

4) Artichoke leaf extract

Important: To help your liver detoxify: Avoid-Trans fat, partially hydrogenised oils, high fructose corn syrup, i.e (all processed foods)-good luck.

The Liver, Free Fatty Acid & Leptin:

Free fatty Acid -this is the fuel of the body. Food turns into Free Fatty Acid.

The leptin hormone regulates with the liver (like a thermostat in your home) what happens to the free fatty acid.

In diabetics and as we age this system gets out of rhythm and the free fatty acid is stored as fat all over the body including in your muscles! This is due to a toxic liver and leptin resistence- which means that although we have the leptin hormone it is not working and is not getting into where it is needed.

Reducing Free Fatty Acids:

Take Niacin (vitamin B3) up to 3 grams a day. 3,000 mg. Suggest you take anti flush niacin pills (one gets a red face taking regular niacin) during the day and a regular niancin 1,000 mg pill before you sleep. Your body will get use to the regular niacin after a few weeks. (After taking regular niacin, if you feel itchy at night or have a red face take two aspirin). Anti flush pills are sold all over. Niacin also helps raise your good HDL cholesterol levels along with exercise. Niacin prevent Heart attacks. 2/3 of diabetics get heart disease.

The more high glycimic carbohydrates one eats the more Free Fatty Acids are made. Eat less of the high sugar carbs and you will have less Free Fatty Acid to begin with for your liver to deal with. Eat less processed food so that your (FFA) is not full of poison-(like trans fat) One should know that: The liver does not know how to deal with TRANS Fat (Man made Fat) as an example.

Reducing Leptin resistence:

Sleep

Excercize for 40 or more minutes,

Arginine, BUILDING BLOCK OF HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE-HELPS SEX DRIVE—VITACOST

Aspirin,

Vitamin E,

DHEA,

Nettle leaf,

fish oils, OMEGA 3 UP TO 6 GRAMS PER DAY IS GOOD

VIII Colon AND GAS help

(IT IS IMPORTANT TO: Go every day -a lot)

IF YOU DO NOT GO a lot EVERYDAY YOUR BODY WILL CONTINUE TO ABSORB NUTRIENTS from your intestines THAT WILL BE CONVERTED TO FREE FATTY ACID which your liver will distribute to fat storage areas all over your body including within your muscles.

ELIMINATE WASTE DAILY, or you will gain weight forever.

MOST DOCTORS FAIL TO TELL YOU THAT DIABETICS USUALLY SUFFER FROM BOTH CONSTIPATION AND/ EITHER GAS AS PART OF YOUR CONDITION. Some doctors know this and prescribe pills- avoid these pills.

Below will help you:

RULE: Never eat extra fiber or take fiber pills powder to help this situation. It will not help you and only make your gas worse. Increasing fiber will also elevate your sugar especially if you consume breads, cereals etc.

You will get enough fiber from eating the salads, frozen vegetables, nuts and beans in this lifestyle: you need no more fiber.

Supplements to use:

Triphala pills 2 pills 3 times a day. This is a very mild natural laxative and eliminates gas. You do not go quickly and will have more normal bowel movements --vitacost

Aloe vera pills- Aloe vera is a natural laxative that comes with other supplements like:

Aloe with Fennel

Aloe with casa sagra

Aloelax 3 Nature’s way- is another one

Take one of the above aloe pills as directed on the bottle

Some Aloe pills have more Millograms of Aloe than others so experiment with the ones with less mg’s first and see which works for you. Suggest aloe with fennel 500 mg first one pill taken at night. (Can be taken nightly)

Note it is abnormal not to go each day. Do not get worried about getting addicted to these natural laxatives. (I asked a gastro doctor who told me to take them.)

GAS and Irritable Bowel:

1) Pepogest pills avoids gas. Take as directed on the bottle 1 hour before you eat. It has peppermint oil-

2) Mastic Gum pills- helps control gas and irritable bowl syndrome plus kills H pilori and other viruses. (Greek remedy)-

NOTE: Most Colon problems are a result of the large amounts “visceral fat” that is around your belly button that surrounds all your organs- which is not natural not too little fiber.

VIII Drinks- that help:

WATER- One’s goal is to drink one gallon of pure water a day.

Note: most of the time when we are hungry we are really thirsty-Test this theory out.

1) TEA-

A. Chamomile tea- Make hot and ice tea

Plus try any other blends of tea without caffeine. Reduces leptin resistance

B: Green tea- helps with weight loss and is anti-oxidant- helps the liver- suggest you make 1/2 gallon of ice green tea a day and drink 4 cups a day. Has caffeine so limit it.

2) Apple cider vinegar/ with Mother

DRINK 1/8 OF A CUP . FILL ½ INCH BOTTOM OF GLASS

Apple cider vinegar with Mother –BRAGG BRAND- (WHOLE FOODS store)- DRINK WITH GINGER ALE OR COLA. TWICE A DAY

3) Diet Soda with Splenda

4) fat free milk in moderation as it has sugar

___________________________________

IX- FAST FOOD( suggested by a friend to me)

Taco Bell- I am told they give out a brochure about Fresco

Do not get supreme ones

Order fresco style only- ask them each to be made “fresco”they put in extra salad type stuff and take out fatty stuff

Hard Taco= 150 calories (Eat 2)

Grilled steak Taco=160 calories (Eat 2)

Ranchero Chicken Soft Taco= 170 calories (Eat 2)

Bean Burrito= 320 calories (Eat 1)

X- Feeling Sick- cold nasal problems etc. Rules:

1) Do not eat more to feel better

2) check your sugar-you will see that it is fine ( do not assume you need extra food to feel better)

3) do not assume or feel your new lifestyle is the cause of your cold and start eating wrong

4) always exercise even when sick unless the sickness is in your lungs and you cannot breath good.

Some extra supplement for colds/ flu/nasal:

Take for 5-10 days the below pills. The minimum is five days even if you feel better take them for at least 5 days:

A) Major Goal: Do not let anything drip into your lungs

Take one 24 hour Clariton pill to stop nasal drip on the first day only.

_____________________________

1) Take 2 licorice pills every 4 hours ( around 700 mg combined. Needs to be 770 mg each dose)

2) Take 2 ginger pills every 4 hours ( around 500 mg each pill

3) Take 1 selenium every 4 hours (around 200 mcg each pill)

_____________________________

4) After 24 hours take 2 regular aspirins instead of clariton every 6 hours for one day - only if needed. (The licorice, ginger and selenium usually stops the drip after 1 or two days.)

5) Note: If the aspirin is not helping the nasal drip enough take another clariton for one more day. One the third day your nasal drip should stop.

6) Rare: If not keep switching one day clariton the next aspirin for a few more days. Goal: Do not let anything drip into your lungs

__________________________________

7) Rare: If you still feel very sick after 4 days start to take Beta Carotene Pills 1 every 4 hours with the 3 others above.

______________________________________

8) If you feel aches during the illness take 2 aspirins every 6 hours- eat more and more protein.

9) Exercise is good for sickness. Do Aerobics ½ to 1 hour a day unless the cold is in your chest.

10) Drink 1 gallon of liquid a day. Include 1/8 cup of Apple cider vinegar. Put it in some diet soda 3 times a day.

11) Avoid milk products- it will increase flem

12) Note: when you feel the worst on the 3^rd day you will usually feel much, much better on the 4^th day. Do not run to take antibiotics on the third day.

The Sugar Control lifestyle.

Controls: Diabetes II and Hyperactivity. Aids with: anti aging, plus weight loss.

We are intended to be happy healthy jubilant creatures where our bodies thrive in its naturally intended rhythm.

Unfortunately, we often do unnatural acts to our bodies not in tune with nature. This causes us to become physically sick and unhappy miserable creatures. Our misery includes being forced to take diabetes pills, injecting ourselves with insulin and forcing Ritalin type drugs on our children.

The below jubilant lifestyle goals may give one insight and direction to have ones body return to its lost natural rhythm:
