Dispelling 6 myths about diabetes.
You are about to discover a scientifically proven nutritional
supplement that boosts your immune system and gets your diabetes
under control.
But before we get too far along, let's dispell with some "myths"
about diabetes.
Myth #1 If You Have Diabetes You Will Always Be Sick No.
Diabetics can lead ordinary, healthy and productive lives.
Myth #2: If it is in your family, you will get it too. No.
Studies have shown that there is a genetic predisposition for
diabetes, so if it runs in the family, it should be taken as a
sign that individuals may have an increased risk for developing
the disease.
However, a risk does not necessarily mean that individuals are
bound to end up with the disease. There are many preventative
measures that can be taken in order to decrease risk, such as
exercise, healthy diet, and weight conciseness.
Myth #3 You can catch diabetes from someone else. No. Although
we don't know exactly why some people get diabetes, we know that
diabetes is not contagious. It can't be caught like a cold or
flu. There seems to be some genetic link in diabetes,
particularly Type 2 diabetes. But environmental factors also
play a part.
Myth #4 Eating too much sugar causes diabetes. No. Diabetes is
caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
However, being overweight does increase your risk of developing
Type 2 diabetes, so if you have a history of diabetes in your
family, a healthy diet and regular exercise are recommended to
control your weight.
Myth #5 People with diabetes can't eat sweets or chocolate. No.
You can have some sugar, but choose wisely. Sweets are no more
out of bounds to people with diabetes than they are to the rest
of us, if eaten as part of a healthy diet, or combined with
exercise. People who take certain tablets or insulin to treat
their diabetes may sometimes need to eat high-sugar foods to
prevent their blood glucose levels falling too low.
Myth #6 People with diabetes can't drink alcohol. No. You can
drink alcohol occasionally if you limit your intake. Just
because you have diabetes doesn't mean you can't enjoy an
occasional alcoholic beverage. If you do, practice moderation --
no more
than a drink or two a few times a week. Alcohol is full
of calories and doesn't supply any nutrients. Like sugary foods,
alcohol is best kept as an occasional indulgence, and not a
regular part of your diet.
Diabetes is a group of diseases that affect the way your body
uses blood sugar (glucose). This sugar is vital to your health
because it's your body's main source of fuel.
Glyconutrients are eight simple sugars that Harpers
Biochemistry, (every Doctor's biochemistry "bible"), calls
"essential sugars". These are simple sugars or "monosacharrides"
that create cellular communication. They are responsible for
getting your cells to "talk" to one another.
Today, there are over 350,000 peer-reviewed scientific papers on
glycobiology available for Medical Professionals to review on
the internet. Since 1994 there have been Four Nobel Prizes for
Physiology and Medicine related to the discovery of these
essential sugars.
The fact is regardless of what your wellness issue
glyconutrients will restart your cellular communication. Cells
are a basic building block of our physiology.
Healthy cells make healthy tissues. Healthy tissue makes healthy
organs. Healthy organs make healthy systems. If your systems are
working synergistically together and are healthy at the cellular
level then you do not have a health problem.
So, it really doesn't matter whether your wellness issue is
diabetes or heart disease or cancer or fibromyalgia or multiple
sclerosis or asthma: glyconutrients work for all the trillions
of cells in your body.
What do glyconutrients really mean to diabetics? Well for one
thing they cut right through both the numerous myths and
standard facts of diabetes.
Glyconutrients will change how you deal with your diabetes. The
natural change in your body's energy after using glyconutrients
will make a noticeable change in your overall health.
And that's just the beginning...
