Type 2 diabetes in the United States has tripled since the 1980’s, where researchers have estimated that one in three Americans will have diabetes by 2050. More than one-third of American adults are obese and one in three Medicare dollars are spent on issues relating to diabetes. Unfortunately, these numbers continue to increase.
The sequence of health complications associated with insulin resistance, obesity and diabetes are characterized as the underlying cause of the majority of heart disease, cancer and premature death in the world. According to research, however, these conditions are preventable and reversible. Type 2 Diabetes is associated with the following chronic illnesses and diseases:
Both obesity and diabetes are preventable and reversible with proper lifestyle changes and a balanced diet and nutrition. On average, people consume approximately 152 pounds of sugar and 146 pounds of flour every year. The consumption of food high on refined sugar and flour can have a drastic effect on a person’s overall health and wellness.
When you remove foods that are causing disease from your diet and exchange them for nutritious foods, disorders such as diabetes, can be reversed, even in patients with obesity. The following seven strategies can be implemented every day with patients to prevent, treat and reverse insulin resistance, obesity and type 2 diabetes without the use of drugs and surgery:
Every year in the United States, 1 million people are diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes is known to be the 7th leading cause of death. The good news is that this statistic can be changed according to new research. Diabetes is no longer inevitable. You can prevent and reverse type 2 diabetes.
Research studies have demonstrated that developing type 2 diabetes occurs as a result of environmental factors, such as how you eat, chemical exposure and stress management, among others. When you eliminate these negative factors, the pancreas has the ability to heal and cells will regain insulin sensitivity. This is ultimately fundamental considering that diabetes is responsible for a host of debilitating illnesses such as: Peripheral neuropathy; heart disease and stroke; kidney disease and kidney failure; and alzheimer’s disease.

Neck pain is characterized as the most prevalent symptom after being involved in an automobile accident. During an auto collision, the body is exposed to a sheer amount of force due to the high speed impact, causing the head and neck to jolt abruptly back-and-forth as the rest of the body remains in place. This often results in the damage or injury of the cervical spine and its surrounding tissues, leading to neck pain and other common symptoms associated with whiplash-related disorders.
