Reversing Type 2 Diabetes – Dr. Sears

“Copied this from an email I received from Dr. Sears.” Admin

If you are battling type 2 diabetes, you’re not alone.

This modern-day “disease” affects more than half a billion people worldwide.

And those frightening numbers are projected to more than double to 1.3 billion over the next few decades.¹

Diabetes cases are expected to surge to
1.3 billion by 2050.

But Big Food and Big Pharma don’t have the slightest interest in curing this chronic scourge.

Meanwhile, doctors like me have been turned into medical outlaws for telling patients that we can not only prevent type 2 diabetes, but cure it.

Let me show you what I mean…

Several Australian doctors recently faced a backlash from Big Food for successfully helping patients reverse type 2 diabetes through diet alone.

These doctors committed no crime except to advise patients to reduce their sugar intake and consume more whole foods including full-fat yogurt.

One doctor told a television interviewer that he was reported to the medical board on more than one occasion.

His alleged “misconduct?”

Advising patients to reduce sugar and “inappropriately” reversing another patient’s diabetes through diet.²

As if telling patients to eat less sugar and more fat and protein is somehow a threat to their health!

3 Strategies To Reverse Diabetes Naturally

You can immediately begin to normalize your insulin levels by reducing your carbohydrate intake. It’s the first and most important step you can take.

But there’s a lot more you can do…

Strategy #1. Feed yourself fat first: Fat is so important that if your body senses you’re starving, it does everything it can to preserve your fat stores.
This goes against everything we’ve been told for 50 years. In fact, the diet “dictocrats” did everything they could to ban natural fat from your food because they still say it causes heart attacks and other disease.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Following a meal that’s high in animal fats and super low in grains and other carbohydrates is as close to the diet of your primal ancestors as you can get.

Fat stabilizes your appetite by triggering the satiety hormones in the hippocampus region of the brain, which makes you feel full.

You feel it in other ways, too. Fat provides long-burning, consistent energy that carbohydrates from wheat and other grains just can’t match.

And there are no starches to trigger the extreme insulin response. Because your body doesn’t have starches to burn for energy, you burn fat instead.

Make sure the fats you choose come from grass-fed cows, pastured pigs, and wild-caught fish. Add fats like olive oil, coconut oil, avocado, butter, ghee, and heavy cream.
Strategy #2. Mimic the “feast or famine” of our ancestors. I help patients beat diabetes using intermittent fasting. It improves glucose regulation and hastens weight loss.
One study of 16 healthy people found “alternate-day fasting” for three weeks helped them lose 4% of their fat mass. They also had a 57% decrease in insulin.³

These are just two of the benefits. In addition, intermittent fasting:^{4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11}
- Lowers your hemoglobin A1C levels
- Suppresses inflammation
- Boosts energy
- Produces more growth hormone
- Increases longevity
- Improves blood pressure
- Reduces inflammation
- Enhances mental clarity
I recommend that my patients start with a safe, simple regimen that calls for restricting your eating window to an 8-hour time frame, then fast for 16 hours.

Here’s how it works: You start your day with a 10 a.m. breakfast. Eat lunch around 1. And finish dinner by 6 p.m.

Your body gets no additional food from 6 p.m. until 10 a.m. the next morning.
Strategy #3. Eat more full-fat yogurt. The Australian doctors were right to recommend yogurt to their diabetic patients.
You see, multiple studies confirm diabetes starts in your gut… And one of the best ways to improve gut health is with full-fat, unsweetened yogurt.

Your health depends on mass populations of bacteria living together in balanced harmony. But when you have an imbalance in your gut, diseases like type 2 diabetes can strike.

Probiotics in full-fat yogurt redress that balance. They improve metabolism and reduce insulin resistance . Studies suggest they also contribute to better glycemic control by lowering blood glucose.

The problem is, not all yogurts are created equal.

Most yogurts on supermarket shelves are packed with added sugar. These are more likely to contribute to the development of diabetes, rather than reduce your risk of getting it.

Look for organic, unsweetened Greek, Icelandic, or Australian yogurt-products. These have the highest number of bacterial colonies and twice as many active cultures as regular yogurts.
