- Peter Attia: What if we're wrong about diabetes?
- As a young ER doctor, Peter Attia felt contempt for a patient with diabetes.
- She was overweight, he thought, and thus responsible for the fact that she needed a foot amputation.
- But years later, Attia received an unpleasant medical surprise that led him to wonder:
- is our understanding of diabetes right? Could the precursors to diabetes cause obesity,
- and not the other way around? A look at how assumptions may be leading us to wage the wrong medical war.

- Drs. McDougall, Barnard, Fuhrman and Ornish have been treating type 2 diabetes with a whole food plant based diet for years with great success. They've written books on this topic and speak publicly about the benefits of the WFPB diet. Kaiser Permanente is now supporting the WFPB diet and encouraging their doctors to discuss it with their patients to treat many ailments including type 2 diabetes.

Back To School Struggles - Maria Mind Body Health
Doesn’t this left pic look like a “healthy” sandwich for lunch / for school?
We all know that we need to stay away from sugar,
but “whole grain” bread is high in sugar, - higher than some candy bars and sugary sodas,
and some scientists have proven that two slices of whole wheat bread
will raise your blood sugar levels as high as if you were eating a candy bar.
(That doesn't mean a candy bar is healthy, it's not, it is low in nutrient AND high in sugar.)
Why does it take the mainstream media so long after a new study to report health benefits?
BECAUSE they would lose all their advertising!
I had to sign a waiver when I would be on TV that I won’t bash whole grain or cereals…
they didn’t want to lose their advertisers! It’s truly shocking. According to the Life Extension article,
eating two slices of whole wheat bread is worse than drinking a can of Coke or eating a candy bar.
( that doesn't mean coke is healthy, just imagine ingest one of its ingredients)
The original 1981 study at the University of Toronto found:
Glycemic Index:
White Bread = 69
Whole-grain Bread = 72
Wheat Cereal = 67,
but Table Sugar (sucrose) = 52
That means the Glycemic Index of whole grain bread is higher than that of table sugar,
which is also known as sucrose. For you “gluten free” readers out there…
rice cakes are listed on the Glycemic Index at 77!
This is why when people go “gluten free”
and grab a lot of packaged “gluten free” items at the store, they gain weight rather than lose weight.
This is why I write in the beginning of my cookbooks why I use flours like coconut and almond flour.
It is important to not only get rid of the gluten,
but stop the inflammation that the starch is causing so the gut can heal!

Everyday issues like headaches, sinus problems, allergies,
skin disorders, acne, heart disease, stroke, aching joints and back, arthritis, and cough
are nothing more than a physical manifestation of silent inflammation.
By the time we notice and address the symptoms, our cells have already been inflamed for a long time.
One of the reasons so many people are dealing with inflammation
is because a rapid rise in blood sugar, which causes biochemical changes in the cell.
Choosing low carbohydrate foods is one of the best ways to decrease inflammation.
When blood sugar rises, sugar attaches to collagen in a process called “glycosylation,”
increasing inflammation (and increases wrinkles!)
Athletes also mistakenly eat too many carbohydrates
that hinder their healing and recovery time because they are constantly inflaming their joints.
Using high quality fats is also essential to reduce inflammation in the body.
ie BAD Omega-6 fats, found in margarine, soybean, corn and safflower oils, are inflammation-causing fats;
these are found in salad dressings, most pre-made pesto sauces, Jiff peanut butter,
ALL pre-packaged cookies and cracker, frozen dinners…
In contrast omega-3 fats, found in fish (sardines, anchovies, salmon),
vegetables, grass-fed butter, and free range eggs, have an inflammation-suppressing effect.
but
GOOD Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is a healthy omega-6 fat
that enhances the anti- inflammatory effect of omega-3 fats.
Both GLA and omega-3 fish oils are helpful in healing arthritis, eczema, and other inflammatory issues. GLA is found in leafy green vegetables,
olive oil, walnut oil, macadamia oil, avocados, and nut butters.
She says -don't use rice flour either -make your own healthier options
by using almond flour and coconut flour, which are very easy to digest.
The healthy fats in nuts actually are nourishing to our brain.
Inflammation is usually associated with pain, swelling, and heat.
BUT it doesn’t always show externally; “silent inflammation” is more dangerous
because we usually don’t know we have it until an illness falls upon us.
