ignoring food and arsenic as causes
Do you not think it’s a trap to think a pill or remedy to cure or
reduce diabetes is going to do more than a diet restriction and
lifestyle change?
This may not apply to you but it sems to me that I’ve seen a lot of
fat diabetics spend more creative effort getting around a program of
dietary restrictions and exercise than following it.
Once they face the facts that ANY sugar, ANY farmed or processed
starch product, or ANY ounces of polyunsaturated and unsaturated oil
is actually foreign to the body, and also that the body NEEDS to be
moving, they start to lose weight like it’s a miracle or something.
The first step is to acknowldge that we never evolved to handle such
a heavy dietary load of carbohydrate or processed oil; they produce
disease.
The other small consideration of course is that your groundwater may
cause diabetes due to its arsenic content.
Not only diabetes but cancer. The table below shows the
lifetime risks of dying of cancer from arsenic in drinking water,
based on the National Academy of Sciences’ 1999 risk estimates.
(assuming 2 liters consumed/day). Note that even at very low
concentrations, cancer risk rises considerably.
0.5 ppb 1 in 10,000
1 ppb 1 in 5,000
3 ppb 1 in 1,667
4 ppb 1 in 1,250
5 ppb 1 in 1,000
10 ppb 1 in 500
20 ppb 1 in 250
25 ppb 1 in 200
50 ppb 1 in 100
Th EPA currently allows 50 PPB, but that’s changing to 10 PPB. A 1 in
500 cancer risk increase.

I USE FILTERED WATER,THE BEST AVAILABLE.SO YOU SAY NO TABLET CHINESE OR
ANYTHING CAN REPLACE THE DIET AND EXERCISE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE

The other filters previously thought to be the best do not remove
arsenic. The best available filter does remove arsenic, but this very
new MARTI technology has just launched, so I much doubt that it was
used to filter YOUR particular water.
Only an assay of the water you are drinking will tell the real story;
no arsenic is acceptable and legal amounts of arsenic in drinking
water are far higher than the amount that causes cancer, diabetes,
and other autoimmune and mitochondrial disorders.
