What You Need To Know

In uncovering how we got diabetes and what all it turns out is happening at the same time, we find it all fits together in how and why and what you and I can do about undoing what has happened to our health.

This issue we are getting into in depth understanding inflammation, the declining enzymes and increasing food intolerance.

These three things, lower enzyme production leading to more food intolerance, causing inflammation, are all together leading to aches and pains (symptoms) and soon the serious degenerative afflictions that will do us in.

See the chart we run here on meltonin production by age, and you will see that decline illustrated over time as you age.

We could just as well use the same graph to indicate how your enzyme production drops off as you age.

Age drop off for caveman, did not really matter because almost all food comes with its own enzymes needed to process it in the human body.

Out problem comes because we now heat, (Cook) pasteurize, canning and/or process our food to where we kill 100% of the enzyme content.

This is all part of what we call the "Modernitis disease," something we cause and do to our self because of our "cleverness" and modern society.

Caveman, fairly late on started to cook some of his food. This was a small percentage, and it has become apparent as this cooking percentage increased, mans medical problems increased right along with it.

We have now arrived at making our breakfast cereal (corn flakes) at 4,000 degrees as an example.

We have the microwave that goes automatically into hundreds of degrees higher then cave man ever achieved, but that does not matter for enzymes, because 116% means 100% destruction

Result is that in order to digest that food, man has to manufacture his own enzyme.

Example: Some new man made foods, your body may not be able to figure out how to make an enzyme to digest it, to illustrate that this is all not a simple matter for your body to be expected to handle..

The body resources that had gone to normal recoup and rebuild now got used up manufacturing enzymes for digesting food.

Then we got lower and lower enzyme levels manufactured by our body as we aged.

This has led to new illness as we find some foods need to come off our list because we are not making the stuff needed to process them on thru the body in a normal manner.

They are as a result causing damage by not being processed and your immune "survival" system goes into attack mode, (inflammation), to try to get them out of your body.

What we are trying to do this issue is to alert you to this happening, get you to be aware and fully understand you will have little or no warning inflammation is happening and if you do wake up to that because of aches and pains etc you will need to know how to run down what food or substance needs to be eliminated.

There are several other alternative aids, and one of these is to use enzymes added as supplements, eat certain enzyme rich raw foods, such as raw salads interspersed along with meals.

Essentially cut out all or most cooking and put into practice some general rules that will help with the problem.

This reminds me of a book I read on a woman that had cured her self of cancer (I was looking for "cure" clues that might be adopted to diabetes) after being written off by doctors, and the one thing I remember about her book was she put a board over the top of her stove and used it as a counter for her vegetable juicer etc and had written cooking off for life.

Rules That Will Help....

1. First rule is: CHEW, CHEW, CHEW, even liquids. Saliva adds the first enzyme, and without lots of this one you are already in trouble. Let us say it has dropped off 50%, if you chew twice as long you could compensate.
   
2. Do not drink with meals. (okay to drink before or after meals)
   
3. Simplify your food at meals. Stop eating carbs and meat at the same meal.
   
4. Never eat vegetables and fruits in the same sitting. They require two different digesting system formulas that complicate the process.
   
5. If you add an enzyme supplement, be sure it is a full spectrum enzyme and you eat it with each meal.
   
6. Eat raw foods with each meal such as a large salad and vary so you get a variety of nutrients and enzymes. (editors note: Adding apple cider vinegar will cut BG 20% and use a healthful fat essential to aid gaining full use of nutrients.)
   
7. Add the right bacteria to your digestive system by taking probiotic formulas, or eating live culture yogurt twice a day, Let city water sit in frig etc container 24 hours before drinking to eliminate chlorine that kills off your digestive bacteria.

Editors Note: Flatulence is a normal part of the digest process. However, more then usual and extremely smelly is a clue your digestive system is encountering something, or too much of something it can not make enough enzyme for or it can not handle properly. *see related article on Flatulence*

To understand enzymes, consider it the construction foreman, with lots of tradesmen, to handle vitamins, proteins, minerals etc. which we can look at as the construction material,

If the construction crew does not show up or one kind of tradesman has quit, and another is sick and working half way, this other stuff is piling up.

Then the wrecking crew has to come in (inflammation) to try and get that thing piling up and get it out of here before it chokes up the life force getting thru.

As you can see, if you can figure out what tradesman (food enzyme) has quit, you stop his type of construction material coming in and piling up. Simple solution.

Lab tests show that rats that eat raw foods will live about 3 years.

Those eating enzymeless chow diets will last only 2 years.

Deficient in enzymes= 30% reduction. Not yet tested in people but indicates humans could extend their lifespan by 20+ years --with proper enzyme levels.

To make this easy to understand we just refer to it as the cave man diet. This terminology turns off a few...who consider themselves to advanced and "refined" for that, so if it makes you feel better about getting on it as one simple solution to all the usual nightmare of keeping track reading label etc, hereafter, just refer to it as the "Paleo" diet.
