1. Hi Allie, All diagnosed / ANYdrugTREATED and Any undiagnosed / UNdrugTREATED ... "HYPERglycaemics".

Now less than 7 million blond / brunette / redhead UNdrugTREATED type 2's in the USA?

BUT diabetes is NOT a disease. Diabetes is the CURE [for relative HYPOglycaemia]...

Diabetes aka HYPERglycaemia is a protective physiological response to the extraordinary dangers of relative HYPOglycaemia...

WHAT PREVENTS HYPERglycaemia...

Eat Less Often ... specifically ... Eat JUST clean water [zero % carbohydrate] between meals & eat ONLY when your blood glucose level, following your previous eat, has NATURALLY reduced to your chosen baseline blood glucose level [eg as related to the relative fuel demands of your particular activity level] and maintaining this habit, of 'supply & demand' glucose control, makes your prevention, of diabetes mellitus, sustainable.

Insulin resistance is a curative process and is common to both type 1 & type 2 Diabetics.

Insulin resistance protects the body from insulin surges and in particular the especially crucial CNS [brain & spinal cord] from HYPOglycaemia which can result from such insulin surges ... without insulin resistance an insulin surge simply 'pumps' vital glucose fuel [and sometimes in excess] into the liver [eg fatty liver], fat [eg fatty fat] & muscles [eg fatty heart] and leaves a 'shortfall' for the CNS and some other type of 'fall' can easily result...

www.thediabetesblog.com/2007/06/06/victims-of-circumstance-in-hypoglycemic-unawareness/1#c5614998

Since the introduction of GM insulin, in around 1983, insulin resistance became more associated with type 2 diabetes, rather than type 1 diabetes, because type 2 Diabetics [before treatment with GM insulin and other HYPOglycaemic drugs] usually have an abundance of insulin & C-peptide and their bodies can safely run above normal glucose levels [HYPERglycaemia] in order to exert greater control over their fuel flow and help prevent relative HYPOglycaemia.

GM insulin lacks C-peptide. GM insulin often results in HYPOglycaemic unawareness because GM insulin has the capacity to circumvent insulin resistance. For those who chose GM insulin rather than natural and/or pig insulin ... insulin resistance is futile.

What if there is ZERO reference anywhere in the history of the world that provides Peer reviewed evidence that ANYdrugTREATED is better than UNdrugTREATED for any type 2 Diabetic?

Please Anyone identify just 1 such reference.

In the continued absence of any such reference it it reasonable to suppose that every type 2 Diabetic 'complication' arises as a result of the treatment of the 'insulin resistance' that was actually keeping type 2 Diabetics healthy in the first place.

Presumably, in respect of 'Who is ultimately responsible for any consequential side effects?' ... such a reference should be producible by a GP or an MD or any other prescribing Physician treating their type 2 Diabetic Patient...

The Hippocratic Oath states: "To please no one will I prescribe a deadly drug nor give advice which may cause his death." ...

'... Why some cases of retinopathy worsen when diabetic control improves ... the rate of fall of blood glucose concentration and the accompanying reduction in blood flow have been thought to be the trigger ... This suggestion was supported by the finding of Grunwald et al, who showed a 20% reduction of blood flow when blood glucose concentrations fell from about 15 mmol/l to 8 mmol/l.'

As compared with the relative HIGH / JOY of UNdrugTREATED type 2 diabetes…

Where's the PROOF that type 2 diabetes ['insulin-resistant diabetes'] is anything other than beneficial? [when UNdrugTREATED]; and if that was other than clear...

Where's the PROOF, from your Physician, that type 2 diabetes ['insulin-resistant diabetes'] is anything other than beneficial? [when UNdrugTREATED].

Transient supernormal glycaemia 'TSG' occurs in every Human Being as a healthy and natural response to acute stress ['adaptative medicine'] … distributing glucose to nerve cells [without insulin receptors] and preventing 'HYPOs' [the real concern] … and may well increase HbA1c … so what? … when glucose levels surge up for a transient period [and then down again] an above average HgA1c can just as easily be viewed as a marker for a very healthy 'stress adapted' Human Being who has the benefit of being 'insulin-conservative' [ie a criteria for being labelled a 'type 1 Diabetic'] which protects INTRAcellular components of cells [with insulin resistance and/or insulin resistant receptors], from eg glycation of DNA, during periods of chronic stress.

If type 2 diabetes [UNdrugTREATED] is a health benefit ... as is proposed ... then most healthy People who have been free from diagnosis of 'above the average blood sugar level' would likely be living happy UNdrugTREATED lives with the benefit TSG... So here's an interesting fact about 7 million People who are 'too healthy to notice'...

'...The government estimates that more than 21 million Americans over age 20 have above normal blood glucose, but that at least a third don't know they have it...'

http://www.scrippsnews.com/node/24477

ie Apparently some 7 million Americans are adaptatively protected from numerous diseases [including cancer & Parkinsons] by way of 'insulin resistance' aka TSG aka HYPERglycaemia aka 'above normal blood sugar' aka diabetes [without even knowing how They are protected].

What is the most definitive study which substantiates the benefit of reducing HbA1c in drug/insulin treated acute&chronic 'insulin-resistant diabetes' [Type 2] … as compared with treatment-free [drug/insulin] acute&chronic 'insulin-resistant diabetes' [ie in a ZERO drug (repeat zero) treatment control Group ie UNdrugTREATED]? {ps please note the word written there says: "zero"} ie completely ignoring HbA1c value variability…

... Am seeking any 'Peer reviewed' study that clearly disassociates drug/insulin treatment from any changes in Patient behaviour [eg diet/exercise] and/or categorically proves that drug/insulin treated acute&chronic 'insulin-resistant diabetes' is healthier than doing absolutely nothing ['zero'] ie just accepting the higher HgA1c value and [possibly beneficial] blood glucose value [and likely beneficial "insulin resistance"]; and

What is the most definitive study which provides incontrovertible evidence that the apparent insulin receptor mediated down-regulation [in response to: transient supernormal glycaemia 'TSG'] is anything substantially other than a stress-adaptive mechanism of 'local' [on a cell-by-cell basis] intracellular cyto-protection from influx of excessive [blood] circulating glucose [ie homeostasis] eg cardio muscle protective?

... It is reasonable to propose that insulin receptor mediated down-regulation 'IRD' [aka "insulin resistance"] is primarily an adaptive [protective/regulatory/beneficial] reply to transient [and chronically repeated] oral indulgence/stress …

eg "...healthy young students were fed a very high fat diet containing egg yolks, heavy cream, and butter, and within 2 days all of the students had blood sugar levels high enough to be labelled diabetic..."

TYPE 2 DIABETES WAS DISCOVERED BY ACCIDENT [c/o C-peptide] AND A NEW DIABETES NAME HAD TO BE CREATED WHEN ENOUGH ACCIDENTS HAD BEEN REALISED WITH INSULIN 'treatment'...

www.thediabetesblog.com/2007/08/13/the-discovery-of-insulin-resistance

www.DrFuhrman.com
"…After World War I, when insulin was first discovered, the medical profession thought diabetes would be totally curable as a medical problem. Diabetes was believed to be due to insulin deficiency, and everyone thought that since insulin would now be given to patients there would be no more problems. It seemed this way for a few years, but terrible things started happening to patients with diabetes who were given insulin to control their blood sugar levels. They developed eye disease, kidney disease, and, most important, accelerating atherosclerosis leading to blood vessel disease and early heart attacks. Their problems were worse than ever. Decades later, when the insulin assay became available and doctors were able to measure insulin levels in their patients' bloodstreams, they found most interesting results: the insulin levels of type 1 (childhood-onset) diabetics were indeed low, but the levels in type 2 (adult-onset) diabetics were not only not low, but also were higher than those of people without diabetes. It became clear that type 2 diabetes is a disease of insulin resistance, not insulin deficiency. Type 2 diabetics produce plenty of insulin … I can only view today's treatment of diabetic patients as malpractice…"

2. Hi Nick.....I haven't heard from you in a while.
Did you ever contemplate this.....The reason why T1DM and IRD(aka Type 2 Diabetes) are present is because a number of Aliens(legal ones from OUR Galaxy) decided to do a Double Blind Study on Homo Sapiens to determine whether Healthy Lifestyles, Motivation, Medication Adherence(including Alternative Medicines and Nutraceuticles) and Exercise as Variables have a beneficial effect on Prognosis?

3. Hi Allie, BetterCell ['Beta Cell'] & Anyone interested in WHEN it is a reasonable time to contemplate a new paradigm...

WHY 'natural acute HYPERglycaemia' & 'natural chronic HYPERglycaemia' are protecting any UNdrugTREATED Diabetics from relative HYPOglycaemia and associated neuropathology [localised glucose starvation]...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradigm ...

...because although it is other than clear as to the involvement of Aliens ... "the earth is flat" is also out of date and EVERY HomoSapien Doctor is in THE responsible position to protect EVERY Diabetic from any such 'Beta Cell' experiment c/o Hippocrates ...

The Hippocratic Oath states: "To please no one will I prescribe a deadly drug nor give advice which may cause his death."

aka...

'To please no One, Human or Alien, will I prescribe a deadly drug nor give advice which may cause his death.' ...

Brief history so far...

1552 B.C.

* Earliest known record of diabetes mentioned on 3rd Dynasty Egyptian papyrus by physician Hesy-Ra; mentions polyuria (frequent urination) as a symptom.

1st Century A.D.

* Diabetes described by Arateus as 'the melting down of flesh and limbs into urine.'

c. 164 A.D.

* Greek physician Galen of Pergamum mistakenly diagnoses diabetes as an ailment of the kidneys.

Up to 11th Century

* Diabetes commonly diagnosed by 'water tasters,' who drank the urine of those suspected of having diabetes; the urine of people with diabetes was thought to be sweet-tasting. The Latin word for honey (referring to its sweetness), 'mellitus', is added to the term diabetes as a result.

16th Century

* Paracelsus identifies diabetes as a serious general disorder.

Early 19th Century

* First chemical tests developed to indicate and measure the presence of sugar in the urine.

late 1850s

* French physician, Priorry, advises diabetes patients to eat extra large quantities of sugar as a treatment.

1870s

* French physician, Bouchardat, notices the disappearance of glycosuria in his diabetes patients during the rationing of food in Paris while under siege by Germany during the Franco-Prussian War; formulates idea of individualized diets for his diabetes patients.

19th Century

* French researcher, Claude Bernard, studies the workings of the pancreas and the glycogen metabolism of the liver.
* Czech researcher, I.V. Pavlov, discovers the links between the nervous system and gastric secretion, making an important contribution to science's knowledge of the physiology of the digestive system.

Late 19th Century

* Italian diabetes specialist, Catoni, isolates his patients under lock and key in order to get them to follow their diets.

1869

* Paul Langerhans, a German medical student, announces in a dissertation that the pancreas contains contains two systems of cells. One set secretes the normal pancreatic juice, the function of the other was unknown. Several years later, these cells are identified as the 'islets of Langerhans.'

1889

* Oskar Minkowski and Joseph von Mering at the University of Strasbourg, France, first remove the pancreas from a dog to determine the effect of an absent pancreas on digestion.

1900-1915

* 'Fad' diabetes diets include: the 'oat-cure' (in which the majority of diet was made up of oatmeal), the milk diet, the rice cure, 'potato therapy' and even the use of opium!

1908

* German scientist, Georg Zuelzer develops the first injectible pancreatic extract to suppress glycosuria; however, there are extreme side effects to the treatment.

1910-1920

* Frederick Madison Allen and Elliot P. Joslin emerge as the two leading diabetes specialists in the United States. Joslin believes diabetes to be 'the best of the chronic diseases' because it was 'clean, seldom unsightly, not contagious, often painless and susceptible to treatment.'

c. 1913

* Allen, after three years of diabetes study, publishes Studies Concerning Glycosuria and Diabetes, a book which is significant for the revolution in diabetes therapy that developed from it.

1919

* Frederick Allen publishes Total Dietary Regulation in the Treatment of Diabetes, citing exhaustive case records of 76 of the 100 diabetes patients he observed, becomes the director of diabetes research at the Rockefeller Institute.

1919-20

* Allen establishes the first treatment clinic in the USA, the Physiatric Institute in New Jersey, to treat patients with diabetes, high blood pressure and Bright's disease; wealthy and desperate patients flock to it.

October 31, 1920

* Dr. Banting conceives of the idea of insulin after reading Moses Barron's 'The Relation of the Islets of Langerhans to Diabetes with Special Reference to Cases of Pancreatic Lithiasis' in the November issue of Surgery, Gynecology and Obstetrics. For the next year, with the assistance of Best, Collip and Macleod, Dr. Banting continues his research using a variety of different extracts on de-pancreatized dogs.

Summer 1921

* Insulin is 'discovered'. A de-pancreatized dog is successfully treated with insulin.

December 30, 1921

* Dr. Banting presents a paper entitled 'The Beneficial Influences of Certain Pancreatic Extracts on Pancreatic Diabetes', summarizing his work to this point at a session of the American Physiological Society at Yale University. Among the attendees are Allen and Joslin. Little praise or congratulation is received.

1940s

* Link is made between diabetes and long-term complications (kidney and eye disease).

1944

* Standard insulin syringe is developed, helping to make diabetes management more uniform.

1955

* Oral drugs are introduced to help lower blood glucose levels.

1959

* Two major types of diabetes are recognized: type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes and type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes.

1960s

* The purity of insulin is improved. Home testing for sugar levels in urine increases level of control for people with diabetes.

1970

* Blood glucose meters and insulin pumps are developed.
* Laser therapy is used to help slow or prevent blindness in some people with diabetes.

1983

* First biosynthetic human insulin is introduced.

1986

* Insulin pen delivery system is introduced.

Warm thanks, Nick

4. 2007 -2010

*Allie Beatty, Nicholas Dynes Gracey, and BetterCell open the first clinic for the 2 Diseases called T1DM and IRD(aka Type 2 Diabetes) where patients are successfully treated with a regime of 5-6 servings of Fresh Vegetables throughout the day along with proteins from Fish, Uncontaminated Seafood, Poultry and small portions of Complex Carbohydrates. Injections of C-peptide and a combination of aerobic/anaerobic exercise 7x/week are performed along with the intake of such Herbs as Banaba, Guggle, Bitter Melon, Licorice extract, Cinnamon herb powder, Gymnema Sylvestre, Yarrow, Cayenne, Juniper Berries, Huckleberry, and Vanadyl Sulfate that lower Blood Glucose.
There results are so dramatic and beneficial, that they are awarded the Noble Prize.
