JenK,
Im glad it helped. I have been looking and searching on the internet about diabetis since my husband was diagnoised with it.

of coarse where we live so far north you cant buy organic all of the time and you sure cant grow vegies year round unles you have a green house or such. But to my knowledge that is the best cure for diabetis, a vegatarian diet.

My family would have a hard time going off meat, we are so used to it as the main coarse, but I am trying to cut the portions down and add more raw veggies to our diet. But the body also has to get accustom to the raw too, it give you gasses and burning in your stomache.

our systems are so messed up from the acids to break down the meats and junk foods, to then trying to balance out with PH to accomodate the veggetables.

Huggie,

I am so sorry to hear of your experience. If you cant get out of the old folks hospital.

at least try to eat the raws foods and run QT into your food before you eat it and drink lots of water, we all should do that no matter what.

about diabetis various appraoches exist.
The summary I distilled from the days i was heavily investigating food-options is that cause of diabetis is mostly plain&simple carbohydrate over-consumption.

This is well explained through the concept of 'metabolic typing' at mercola.com.

Summary-metaphor: there are cars running best on diesel (Animal Fat), cars running best on super-gasoline (carbohydrate) and cars running best on a mixture (mixture percentage vary).

=>The moment you deviate too much from the ideal mixture **for your body**, strange systemic problems start to occur: diabetis is only one of them.

I like the concept of metabolic typing because it acknowledges that diet is a very personal thing an NOT a one-size-fits-all approach as most other diets advocate.

Regarding the food-link It is therefore unlikely that QT will change the bodies natural fat-carbo-percentages to match the inappropriate diet (as with QT the body returns to its natural state)
I assume that combined with the diet-change QT could assist in recovering the overworked pancreas or the mentioned insulin resistance.
