Description: Type 2 Diabetes Control Treatment With Healthy Diet, Oral Medication Or Insulin & Exercise (Applicable Type 1 Diabetes As Well). You Will Learn: (i) The Hidden Secret in The Hemoglobin A1c Chart!, (ii) How to Find Out Your Daily Average Blood Glucose Level!, (iii) How to Control Type 2 Diabetes With Diet & Exercise!, (iv) How to Control Type 2 Diabetes With Diet, Oral Medication & Exercise!, (v) How to Control Type 2 Diabetes With Diet, Insulin Shots & Exercise!, (vi) How to Control Type 1 Diabetes With Diet, Insulin Shots & Exercise! (vii) How to Lower Your Hemoglobin A1c to Perfectly Normal!, (viii) How to Slash After-Meal Glucose Spikes & Achieve Normal A1c! (ix) How to Inject Optimal Insulin Dose, and Exercise to Lower After-Meal Spike to Normal.ABSTRACTMost diabetic people focus their attention on fasting blood-glucose levels in order to control diabetes, rather than on lowering after-meal glucose levels. Hemoglobin A1c is a parameter that directly reveals the degree of "diabetes control" during the preceding 90 days. Red blood cells live in the bloodstream 60 to 90 days. Every 90 days new red blood cells are born. Hemoglobin is a protein molecule that carries oxygen from the lungs to the body's cells wherever it is needed. While the blood circulates, depending on how high the blood glucose level is, a certain amount of glucose is attached to the hemoglobin to form A1c. So, by measuring the hemoglobin A1c level, it is possible to know the average blood glucose level and the degree to which it has been controlled over the preceding 90 days.Blood glucose reaches its highest level immediately after the consumption of a major meal. The elevated glucose levels dominate in and largely contribute to establishing the average glucose level over 90 days. After-meal glucose levels therefore must be lowered and brought to normal within 1 or 2 hours of the consumption of every major meal in order to control and bring hemoglobin A1c close to its normal value. At the same time, the insulin dose must be minimized because too much insulin causes hypoglycemia and constricts arteries, leading to heart attack and coronary heart disease. Too much insulin also stimulates the brain so that a person feels hungry and eats more and causes the liver to manufacture fat in the belly. Too little insulin on the other hand would not be enough to cover the entire meal and to maintain normal glucose levels. An optimum insulin dose is therefore crucial. Insulin is synthesized in such a way that it acts more quickly and much more effectively with exercise. After-meal exercise, either treadmill or walking, should be introduced into the diabetes control plan in order to burn fat, lose calories and optimize both the insulin dose and insulin action. After-meal exercise minimizes the insulin dose and maximizes insulin action and prevents after-meal glucose levels from rising too high, thus keeping diabetes under tight control. The Good News: Consistent, serious and rigorous efforts towards lowering after-meal glucose levels over a period of 3 to 6 months gradually lowers the hemoglobin A1c level of a diabetic person to its normal value, even if the diabetes was poorly controlled in the past. Thereafter, continued efforts with a reasonable attention to insulin, food and exercise are necessary to tightly control diabetes. The author of this book, having been diabetic for 20 years, began to conduct diligent experiments to study the combined influence of insulin dose and after-meal exercise on after-meal blood glucose levels, and successfully lowered after-meal glucose levels continuously and on a daily basis. For a selected major meal, the Humalog insulin dose was cut by 50 to 60% through extensive research and optimization. The hemoglobin A1c level dropped from a very high-risk 12% to a stunning 6.5% (Refer to Table 7.5) and since then has remained normal for more than a year. Diabetes has been permanently controlled!

FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR DR. JASON FUNG • “The doctor who invented intermittent fasting.” —The Daily Mail “Dr. Fung reveals how [type 2 diabetes] can be prevented and also reversed using natural dietary methods instead of medications … This is an important and timely book. Highly recommended.” —Dr. Mark Hyman, author of The Pegan Diet “Dr. Jason Fung has done it again. … Get this book!” —Dr. Steven R. Gundry, author of The Plant Paradox Everything you believe about treating type 2 diabetes is wrong. Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease—a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this groundbreaking book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, Dr. Fung explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease. The only way to treat type 2 diabetes effectively, he argues, is proper dieting and intermittent fasting—not medication. “The Diabetes Code is unabashedly provocative yet practical ... a clear blueprint for everyone to take control of their blood sugar, their health, and their lives.”—Dr. Will Cole, author of Intuitive Fasting
