GrapefruitDiabetesType 2 diabetes has been shown to result from lifestyle factors and
has been previously described as progressive and chronic, however,
recent advances have shown it is reversible—by diet!
Type 2 diabetes used to predominately affect adults, but with our
obesity epidemic, we are now seeing children as young as eight devel-
oping this condition. Our Western diet, devoid of nutrients but full
of junk, is to blame. The usual treatment consists of a diabetic diet,
oral medications, and insulin.
The impact of diet on type 2 diabetes has been well-researched. More
recently, alternative diets have been found to be much more effective
against diabetes than the Standard American “Diabetic Diet.”
These diets can actually reverse diabetes—not just prevent
progression!
