"&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;If you have type 2 diabetes, you should be aware you can become non-diabetic by eating a high-nutrient diet.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Controlling your blood sugar with drugs, while continuing to eat the diet that caused it, can turn out to be a formula for disaster. People with type 2 diabetes have increased circulating insulin, which is not fixed with drugs that lower blood glucose. This metabolic situation not only increases heart attack death, but also increases cancer deaths. Many do not realize type 2 diabetes is usually reversible and resolvable, and how important it is to do so.\u00A0\u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Over time, high blood glucose levels can lead to the chronic complications of diabetes, which can affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and heart. Diabetes and the associated elevated insulin response is also associated with an increased risk of developing certain cancers. \u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;A &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19620249&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;externalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;review of data from several studies&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; found that diabetic patients were about 30 percent more likely to develop colorectal cancer, 20 percent more likely to develop breast cancer, and 80 percent more likely to develop pancreatic cancer.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;h3&amp;gt;The Effects of Insulin&amp;lt;/h3&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Most scientists think that diabetes increases cancer deaths through elevated insulin levels and also the use of insulin or diabetic medications that promote insulin secretion. When you give a person with type 2 diabetes, who has been suffering from the damaging effects of excess insulin for years, more insulin to drive the sugar down, or drugs that do so, you create more problems.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Insulin increases appetite and can cause significant weight gain, making the patient more diabetic. Usually, as time passes, their condition worsens and they require more and more medication leading to a greater cancer risk. Insulin is a growth-promoting hormone, and in excess can directly promote tumor growth by binding to the receptor for &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;http://www.cancer.gov/publications/dictionaries/cancer-terms?cdrid&amp;amp;#61;653119&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;externalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;2&amp;quot;&amp;gt;insulin-like growth factor, or IGF-1&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;h3&amp;gt;How the Wrong Diet Leads to Disease&amp;lt;/h3&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Even in people without diabetes, diets high in sugars and white flour increase the risk of cancers because of their impact on blood glucose and insulin response. There is much evidence supporting that chronic exposure to diets rich in refined carbohydrates may act directly to promote cancer.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;People without diabetes who have chronically elevated glucose levels because of their high glycemic diets are also at a higher risk of colorectal cancer. Foods, such as sugar and products made with white flour produce dangerous spikes in blood glucose and consequently result in higher insulin production. Diets that include large quantities of these types of high &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/what-is-the-glycemic-load-2241951&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;3&amp;quot;&amp;gt;glycemic load (GL)&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; foods increase the risk of several cancers. A meta-analysis of many studies found a 26 percent increase in colorectal cancer risk in people who consumed the most high glycemic load foods in their diets.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;So whether you have diabetes or not, one thing is clear: The best diet for preventing or reversing type 2 diabetes (as well as the most lifespan promoting in type 1 diabetes) is also the best diet for cancer protection. A Nutritarian diet-style is specifically designed to reverse diabetes, reverse high blood pressure and protect against cancer. For those looking to protect their heath, it is a proven approach to disease recovery.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;h3&amp;gt;Nutritarian Diet&amp;lt;/h3&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;This recommended diet-style is designed with a &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/foods-you-should-eat-to-live-longer-2223533&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;4&amp;quot;&amp;gt;high nutrient to calorie ratio&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;. A superior diet includes sufficient green and non-starchy vegetables, beans, raw nuts and seeds, and some fresh fruit.\u00A0 Such a nutrient dense, plant rich diet-style has been shown to effectively reverse type 2 diabetes and normalize your blood pressure while slashing your cancer risk.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The high levels of micronutrients acquired through this diet fuel cellular repair, reduce body fat, and heal the body from the inside out, resulting in a dramatic reversal of disease. Not only have I observed this benefit with thousands of people throughout my medical career, but the results have been documented and reported in medical journals.\u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The results show a Nutritarian diet-style can resolve type 2 diabetes in 90 percent of patients. This approach is more effective and safer than the use of drugs.\u00A0 A Nutritarian diet gets the best results for permanent &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://www.verywell.com/maintaining-a-healthy-weight-will-help-you-live-longer-2223526&amp;quot; data-component=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot; data-source=&amp;quot;inlineLink&amp;quot; data-type=&amp;quot;internalLink&amp;quot; data-ordinal=&amp;quot;5&amp;quot;&amp;gt;weight loss&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;, blood pressure lowering and lowering cholesterol as well and people across America need this now more than ever.\u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;h3&amp;gt;Consult Your Doctor&amp;lt;/h3&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Do not underestimate how powerfully this works. If you are on medication for diabetes or high blood pressure it is important you talk with your physician before embarking on this program because you will find that your medications will need to be tapered and most often eventually eliminated entirely.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The sooner a person with type 2 diabetes loses the extra weight causing the stress on the pancreas, the more functional reserve of insulin secreting cells remains. However, it is not just about losing weight, it is also about flooding the body with the micronutrients and phytochemicals it needs to fuel cellular repair.\u00A0 Most people with diabetes following this program become non-diabetic before they lose all their excess weight. \u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The purpose of this information is to motivate people to learn more and get well. Too often, people with high blood pressure and diabetes think they have to remain ill and take medications the rest of their life. They don\u2019t.\u00A0 \u00A0\u00A0\u00A0\u00A0&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;Sources:&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;Janghorbani M, Dehghani M, Salehi-Marzijarani M.
