How can we treat Diabetes? There's a few people around my circle who have an issue with their sugar levels and were wondering if I could treat them. But honestly I wouldn't know where to start because I don't know what part(s) of the body regulates these sugar levels or anything else I should be concerned with. Anybody know? Thanks.

The other issue to consider in (Type 2) diabetes is the body's state of insulin resistance, which causes the cells to no longer react to normal insulin amounts and, therefore, glucose cannot pass through cell walls. This type of diabetes, which is the most common, is not a matter of the pancreas under-performing. The body itself is being constantly overwhelmed with high carbohydrate/sugar intake to the point that insulin resistance escalates and the pancreas cannot keep up. If that sounds like a junkie building resistance to hard drugs to the point that the person overdoses just to get high, good. That's pretty much the situation for many people.

When dealing with Type 2 diabetics, the most satisfying results come from a combination of diet/lifestyle changes to naturally reduce insulin requirements to normal levels. Over time, as the state of insulin resistance reverses, doctors reduce insulin dosages until, finally, the client is capable of controlling blood glucose levels on his/her own. This assumes that the pancreas itself has not become incapable of producing normal levels of insulin, of course.

A depressed immune system is definitely a common theme in diabetics. Bolstering immune response is a huge help and is a beneficial approach from a QT practitioner. An idea would also be to work at the cellular level to reduce insulin resistance. Note that this work should NOT be done without close monitoring of blood glucose levels and insulin requirements; otherwise, it's possible to put a client at risk.

Where did Ali's response from this morning go?

Hmmmmmmm. Ali said she'd been deleting some posts. That one was one that should certainly have stayed!

Hi Anto, how to treat diabetes is a BIG question! I have been labelled as diabetic since I was 29 (that's 25 years now!). I was told I had type 2 (insulin resistance) but was quickly put on insulin - after about 10 years I was told I was type 1 (not making insulin). Then after another 10 years it became evident that I was resistant to the insulin I was injecting. This 'type 3 or type 2 and a half' is now quite common.

Until the last 3 years, I worked at healing this condition on and off - depending on my life situation, and had some success, but until I started doing energy work consistently, all improvements were transient.

Since I found QT, I have been able to be more focused and diligent in my efforts to improve my situation and have managed to reverse retinopathy and considerable improve my health in many other ways - as I see it now, it's just the beginning.

One must work at all levels to address diabetes - as I address emotional and spiritual issues I find a noticable improvement with each 'issue'.

Physically, one needs to eat a healthy diet consisting of 'real' food (more on that later) and make sure they get proper nutrients - there are many common deficiencies and metabolic imbalances with diabetics (magnesium and chromium deficiencies to name only 2). The entire endocrine system is usually compromised - adrenals, liver.... and there is often a history of food allergies dating from childhood - usually related to gluten and dairy (cow). Also, communication between the pituitary and other endocrine organs can be compromised.... the list goes on and sometimes it is hard to find a place to start.

My feeling is that the physical imbalance and dysfunction are merely reflections of the deeper emotional and spiritual issues, but once these 'higher issues'have been addressed, one has to provide the building blocks the body needs to rebuild itself.

At one point in my despair I remember thinking "I know what I need to do but I simply don't have the energy!"

QT gave me the energy boost I needed to be able to allow myself to take advantage of other physical and spritual/energetic resourcec and make new choices.

Since I began using QT and doing qigong daily, I have managed to reduce my insulin dosage by 40%. I believe I have released the type 2 part of the disease, and I also feel that I have started to make more insulin although I have not had the blood test yet.

I think the most exciting "new" development is the raw/living food diet. I have just started learning about it and am starting to move in that direction and am trusting that the law of attraction will bring me the resources I need to move through the final stages of releasing this old pattern.

The most significant resource I have found so far is the Tree of Life Centre in Arizona. Gabriel Cousens has done some amazing work on reversing diabetes and if you want more info - look at the link to his video "Raw for 30 Days" which followed the transformationion of 6 diabetics into new people without the disease!!!

sorry this is so long - I am sure others will have some valuable and more specific insights for you.

Keep up the great work and BTW, GREAT website you have!

P.S. I forgot to mention the issue of reducing/going off insulin. I am pretty good at monitoring and adjusting my insulin dose, but I have also gotten into a rebound dynamic where my sugars bounced from high to low and back again for days - iThis is beyond uncomfortable but more importantly, I think this instability can be damaging to the repairs that the body is making - I have nothing to validate this, it's just a gut feeling.

I have considered trying a major juice fast and raw diet and trying to stop insulin myself, but even my sometimes reckless personality is afraid to do this without some guidance and support - so finding a doctor or naturopath who has experience in helping people transition off insulin is important. I guess part of my 'trip' is learning when to ask for help.....

Dear Georgia, You can get help getting off insulin if you get the help of the nutritionist at Rose Quest Nutririon Centre, Cynthia Harington telephone # 574-259-5653, Mishawaka, Indiana, USA. Good health! Marilyn Yoder

Marilyn - many thanks for the info!!!!!!! I will call Cynthia today!!

Whenever I run across a disease or condition that I know little about, I do a search on the internet. It is amazing how much information there is and there are some good basic explanations. From there, if I feel the need, I do more refined searches.

Then, with the information I have gleaned, I start to sense the flows in a system, ala Core approach, and work from there noting the quality of the flows in the specific areas that my research suggested I start. I try not to get to hung up in the suggestions; I use them as an entry point and move on from there.

Alain, that's precisely what I do as well, on a level...

I have had a lot of years of medical knowledge, anatomical/physiological study crammed into my brain as I was in school to be a physician or nurse practitioner (and raised by a nurse)...when a client has a specific condition listed or marked on their intake form, I automatically go into a core-type "space" where I see the condition and how it's operating in the body, the flow of energy and where it's been impeded. I've often laughed at myself quietly due to the fact that simple language can even put me in that "space" of receiving information on another level...

Trane, very good explanation. Diabetes of any type is a complex, dis-eased metabolic condition that is easily misunderstood by many schools of medicine. Preventive means would be the best bet...however when the condition has already set in, I focus on the Islets of Langerhaans, the alpha and beta cells of the pancreas, and allow those structures to tell me what has occurred, so as to understand a reversal that could work. The only person I've had contact with whom had diabetes was my Gran...she passed about 5 years ago. Type 2, obtained from gestational onset during her pregnancy with my father, 54 years ago. Back then, many obstetricians urged pregnant women to gain weight, eat, eat, eat...and now we wonder why we see so many senior citizen women with this condition...

Great discussion

With in the last month or so I saw on tv ( I think it was discovery???)a program that found out with some experimenting with foods that Diabetes can be cured with in 30 days of the program. mostly its going on a vegetable and fruit diet, with no milk products, and no meat, and no breads or grains, no alcohol, etc...

prety much our whole modern day and government regulated diets are killing us slowly. all the growth hormones, preservatives, in our food and insecticides, and clorine and pasturizing and homoginizing. We are pretty much guinea pigs for our government.

Did you know if you fed a newborn calf the milk we drink it will die. Also did you know if you sat fresh milk from a cow out and one from the store out to spoil, the store bought turns black and the fresh just gets sour curdles. our diets are killing us.

I know its tough to change with all of the fast foods that have us addicted, because of all of the chemicals that is in them.

Like Alain said check out the web, look up cures for diabetes.
There is one that will cure diabetis with in a few months use of an herb,I cant find it right now i used to have it bookmarked.

just do some studying on the subject you will be suprised at what you will run across.


here is one to start off with
http://hometown.aol.com/wingsmanh1/DiabetesDeception.html

I have not had experence with curing the disease,But My mother who has diabetis, called one day all upset because her sugar was 300(That's very high) so I went right over and did QT.For no other reason but instinct I worked on her head. After about 15 minutes, she said she felt dizzy. So she checked her blood sugar and it was 70, (the lo end of normal)

I found this on quantumtouch.com
under 30 day veg

Linda,
Thanks for sharing this video. I have just started working on a friend of mine who is diabetic, so I have forwarded this to her. But it is not something just for her, it really hit me too. Thank you.

I have been a diabetic fo 29 years. Most diabetics die before that.( I should be so lucky). I healed retinopthy because I was doing daily QT on a spur in my neck. the surgeon could hardly believe that my neck didn't pain any more, so he cancelled the operation to cut it out.
I kept myself in good health till a stupid dr. put my insulin up to 68 units daily with a 10 actrapid mix guarenteed to take your head off. I was stupid too to believe doctors are gods!
I got into a load of trouble with confusions, comas, destructive outrages which landed me as the youngest person incarcerated in an old peoples hospital. OMG! can you imagine THAT as karma! Everything we do, eat, or sleep is regulated! Our diet is sausages and saugage meat disguised as other things and dead stuff like corn beef. Most days, even in winter, we get ice cream supposed to be sugar free but thats a con.
I havd been doing QT to my pancres, just under my left ribs off and on.
The doc here reduced my inslun to 30 units. I started to do QT every day and after 3 bad experiences of fighting nurses and ambulance men, he reduced it to 28 then 24. I am a bit afraid to try that on again! But it does seem that QT on my pancres does stimulate it to produce insulin.
If my sugar tests go low because of that the nurses go bonkers and start force feeding me and reporting me for swearing at them.
When I was 22, I thought my life was too easy and I preyed for my karma to come in; nearly 60 years later, I am still getting it. Can't be much left!
