Type 2 diabetes is fast reaching epidemic proportions in the United States: More than 17 million Americans have been diagnosed with the disorder, and an estimated 16 million more are living with the disease but have yet to be diagnosed. What's worse, this disorder, formerly termed adult-onset diabetes, is being diagnosed in record numbers in adolescents and preteens. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recently announced that one in three children born in 2000 will ultimately develop the condition. Americans are desperate for answers. But according to Frank Shallenberger, M.D., we've been looking in all the wrong places. In The Type 2 Diabetes Breakthrough, Dr. Shallenberger presents his revolutionary approach to treating type 2 diabetes. He documents his extensive research, which shows that the root of diabetes is a decrease in energy production and fat metabolism, and describes in detail his patented Bio-Energy Test for measuring energy production, an integral part of diagnosing and treating diabetes. He then shows how to correct the factors that lead to thiscondition to stop the disease in its tracks. At the core of his treatment protocol is his unique perspective on nutritional guidelines for diabetes for optimal energy production. In fact, Dr. Shallenberger explains why the American Diabetes Association's dietary guidelines are nothing more than a recipe for keeping the disease. Another unique component of his treatment approach is an emphasis on optimizing liver function. Though conventional medicine focuses on the pancreas as the organ responsible for diabetes, Dr. Shallenberger has proven that the liver is the primary organ of importance in most cases of diabetes. And, of course, Dr. Shallenberger considers exercise to be an integral part of any successful treatment or prevention plan for type 2 diabetes, but not just any form of exercise will do. The exact level and type of exercise necessary is based upon the results of the Bio-Energy Test. In fact, Dr. Shallenberger's research has shown that most diabetics who exercise are working out too hard to get well! Rounding out Dr. Shallenberger's program are vital stress-reduction and sleep recommendations to improve blood sugar control and overall health. Despite all of conventional medicine's attempts at treating and preventing diabetes, its incidence continues to soar. It's time for a new-proven-approach. It's time for The Type 2 Diabetes Breakthrough. Book jacket.

The fact is, you can reverse high blood sugar and diabetes in as little as 8 weeks using the 8 steps in this book. “Health professionals are misleading patients about the true cause of diabetes,” says Dr. John Poothullil. “The problem has become so severe that diabetes is now a national and international epidemic." Diabetes affects more than 23 million people in the US. Most diabetics are treated with medications or insulin injections to “control” their diabetes, yet they still develop many complications from the condition. 1 in every 4 adults over age 65 has diabetes. Diabetes is considered to be the 3rd leading cause of death in the US. Based on more than 20 years of research into the scientific literature on diabetes, Dr. John proves that diabetes cannot be caused by insulin resistance as is commonly thought. Rather, it is caused by the constant consumption of grains – including wheat, barley, rice, oats, corn, and products made with the flour of these grains. When people excessively consume grains, it fills their fat cells and eventually forces a normal body metabolism to go haywire, leaving glucose in the bloodstream. This causes high blood sugar—and when it continues for a long period of time, it results in diabetes. Dr. John's explanation makes far more sense than insulin resistance. It explains why diabetes is spreading in nations as different as China, India, England, and the US --because in all these countries grain is a major portion of the diet. It explains why younger and younger adults, even teenagers, are developing diabetes, given their diets of pizza, sandwiches, snack foods, cakes, muffins, doughnuts and so many products that contain grain flour. It also explains why some pregnant women get gestational diabetes and shed it within days after giving birth. Understanding Dr. John's explanation for the cause of diabetes opens the door to reversing it. The book provides an easy to implement 8 step program that will truly your lower blood sugar for good.
