The article In Life Science should have clarified Type II Diabetes.

I would like to know what you mean by eliminating grains from your diet, what grains are you referring to? I now consume chia and find tremendous health bennifits. It is an ancient grain from about 500 years ago that is glutten free , does that make the difference?

Type 1 diabetes is just as curable as type 2. I am living proof of that. I discovered I was diabetic during my pregnancy, and started researching it and thank God for finding Dr. Mercola as well as my naturopath. I discovered through blood tests that I was allergic to both wheat and dairy, including eggs. My naturopath told me that when you eat something you are allergic to, it attacks your pancreas. So if you or someone you know has type 1 diabetes, I highly recommend allergy testing. That was the underlying cause of mine. As for treating it, as Dr. Mercola says, you have to eliminate all sugar and grains from your diet, and exercise. If you do those two things, you could absolutely go off of insulin, as you would no longer need it because 1, the foods you are eating aren't causing an insulin spike, and 2, when you eat your fresh raw vegetables, which are carbohydrates, then you go for a brisk walk or run, and stabilize you insulin and leptin levels. But if you you don't do those two things, then yes, insulin is needed. You just have to make the choice because insulin is a killer, albeit a slow one.

God, I can't believe some of you folks have your small children on anti-depressents! Sunlight, fresh fruits and vegetables, a LOT of them, and appropriate psychotherapy is worth the cost. No child needs to be subjected to brain-altering and damaging drugs to sooth a parent's need for attention!!!

Milk products, raw or not, are not the best ways to get proper amounts of calcium. Am I the only one who has gone to school or reads journals? Outside of those studies paid for by the dairy industry? Who remembers why large levels of milk and milk products will not satisfy the human body's need for calcium? Geeze. Dark greens are what the human body needs for most calcium, not stuffing it with an unnatural form of food(another animal's milk).

I have made an effort to stay out of the sun as much as possible most of my life because I have extremely fair skin and because I have a history of heat injury.

I am concerned now that I've done myself a vast disservice!

I did spend a lot of time outdoors as a kid, plus 5 yrs in the army - but that was a long while ago. It is a good thing I like to garden, so I am making myself go outdoors more often, even if it is just to wander about the yard. I'm trying to skip wearing sunscreen now too. Despite my "crunchy" leanings, I'd always slathered the stuff (spf50) on without much thought because the idea of melanoma scared me spitless. I'm disgusted that I let the media brainwash me....

Diabetes is curable. I went to a yoga class where they recommend raw food and pranayama. At the end of 15days there is 3 day camp where they awaken the kundalini(and the guruji also "brings it down").

I have heard of 1500 people who are completely cured from this 15 days program. I have personally seen 3 people in my batch get their levels back to normal and they ofcourse avoid sugar, but they are not put in a life threatening situations if they eat sugar once in a while. Their levels also are maintained without medication.

The last batch which my friend attended, had a person who had a sugar count of 500. after a month his levels are normal and the has gone off medication.

According to our guruji diabetes is nothing but an overload. The body reaches a level where it cannot take anymore abuse. All you have to do is release the "load" by going raw and revitilising the body with pranayama and you the body gets back to normal.

Depression and high blood pressure and not diseases at all. it is easily cured by just adjusting your diet and if you go raw for a fortnight or a month all these disease will dissappear.

I cant say much on the other diseases like arthritis etc.

I researcher in Louisiana, Bouchard, studied exercise and found that exercise works for aobut 60% of people and doesn't work for 40%. A few people even get worse after exercise. He evaluated paremeters like blood sugar levels, oxygen utilization, and other things that can be rigorously quantified. .

Exercise is NOT the miracle cure for everyone although it helps most people.

they told me I had RA and started me on predisone and methotraxate, I said I am not taking this any more and adjusted my diet, no MSG, or artificial sweetners, and not too much sugar ( I am not overweight) and started taking MSM daily and my pain went away, I still sometimes have pain, I think some is stress, and thats the most difficult to stop, but I believe diet is the biggest culprit!

For "Paragonx," with depression, who asked for help this date:

Try www.ourhealthcoop.com for their Fish OIl which includes 180mg EPA and 120mg DHA.

Also, look at their Neuro-PS which includes Phosphatidylserine for brain health.

By the way, this is a non-profit source of many supplements with highest purity and label accuracy.

Finally, have you had your Serotonin hormone tested? Is your Dopomine too high?

Nebraskamom 7

Your post says your daughter is on this medication since 9 1/2. I just googled paxil and the safety info states that it shouldn't be given to under 18's. Have you managed to get a second opinion?

I'm allergic to both the sun and sunblock. They make me itch and it lasts for about three days. I can be in the sun for short periods of time, otherwise I have to be completely covered. I'm 77 years old and I've been allergic to the sun for 51 years. I've had bone tests and they show no bone loss. I do use vitamin D and exercise on an indoor treadmill.

Concerning Cholesterol:

Has any one seen the informational film called Eating?

The primary topic in the film is cholesterol and heart disease.

A Great case is made against animal based foods and their contribution to immune system decline, cancer, and

heart disease. Animal foods (meats, dairy, poultry, fish) are the culprit because they are the only source of cholesterol in the food world. Eliminate animal products in your diet and you reverse heart disease and other ailments. It is purported that introducing cholestreol containing food into your body makes a big mess for your body to clean up, thus weakening your immune system.

Im sure im not doing this film justice, but i am somewhat confused when i read mercola saying:

"To normalize your cholesterol level naturally, these three primary strategies work well 99 percent of the time if properly implemented: daily exercise; eating a low grain, low sugar diet; and, taking a high quality omega-3 supplement."

I'd like deeper explinations.

OsteoArthritis is secondary to traumatic joint damage

The solution and prevention is appropriate lifetime Chiropractic care. There is no "Alternative" (or Complementary).

since there is a lag time between the injury and the degeneration (years to decades) most people don't want to bother with prevention or wellness

The MD's claim to have the drugs to "treat" OA and most people believe that silliness
