Vaccine to Reverse Diabetes Has Been Officially Announced and the Whole World is Celebrating the News!

Currently, in the U.S. 1.25 million people suffer from type 1 diabetes. However, according to newest researching the vaccine used for tuberculosis Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) can reverse this disease. This vaccine has been used for over 100 years and has shown great results as well as in the treatment against bladder cancer. At the 75th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association was revealed that the FDA will start testing the vaccine on 150 people who are in an advanced stage of type 1 diabetes.
This vaccine is efficient in eliminating T cells. What this means? Namely, a person suffering from type 1 diabetes cannot produce insulin as a result of the immune system destroying the cells that create insulin. T cells are produced, and these cells cause problems in the pancreatic islets, where insulin is produced.
The patients who were injected with this vaccine showed an increase in the levels of a substance called tumor necrosis factor. The increased level of TNF in the system eliminates T cells which are impeding the production of insulin.
These patients were previously injected with the tuberculosis vaccine two times during four weeks period. The given results were incredible, the harmful T cells were gone, and in some cases patients began to secrete insulin on their own.
Dr. Denise Faustman, director of the Massachusetts General Hospital Immunobiology Laboratory in Boston, is very satisfied with the showed results of the BCG vaccine, stating the following:
“In the phase I (preliminary) trial we demonstrated a statistically significant response to BCG, but Continue reading

Cholesterol Drugs Cause Rapid Aging, Brain Damage And Diabetes. Use These Natural Solutions Instead

Cholesterol Drugs Cause Rapid Aging, Brain Damage And Diabetes. Use These Natural Solutions Instead

In the past, some MDs have proposed that statin drugsshould be put into our water supplies and handed out to fast food customers. As if fluoridated water posing as a necessary mass medicine that turns out to be toxic isn't enough.
One out of four Americans aged 55 or over are on a statin drug, most of whom are without cardiovascular and heart problems. Many are prescribed statins solely for high cholesterol, even as the FDA finally got around to forcing some, not all, of their side effects on statin labels and ads.
Maybe Pfizer wasn't content with their sales revenue of $140 billion while its patent on Lipitor was in effect. Now other pharmaceutical companies continue to rake in profits with their statin drug versions while MDs and cardiologists push them on ignorant middle-aged folks that think their doctors know best. Even many young people are now being scammed into taking a statin prescriptions due to an outdated attitude towards LDL vs. HDL levels.
Dr. Carolyn Dean, MD, ND, author of Death by Modern Medicine, and passionate promoter of magnesium supplementation, posted an abstract from a Japanese study that scientifically indicts statin drugs as perpetrators of bad heart health rather than the proclaimed solutions of heart health.
The ad below appeared in Canadian publications in 2002. A solid example of pro-statin propaganda.
Pfizer must have spent many millions of dollars on just this one ad. The implication is clear, you will not die as long as your blood “cholesterol” is low and you had better take a statin for it if it isn't. This was and is a lie. In primary Continue reading

Labrador 5+ Miles Away Saves Life of 4-Year-Old Girl with Down Syndrome and Diabetes

Labrador 5+ Miles Away Saves Life of 4-Year-Old Girl with Down Syndrome and Diabetes

Greg and Michelle Brooks dreamed of what their baby girl would be like. They pictured a perfectly healthy seven-pound newborn.
They were partially correct in that their baby girl, Sadie, was the perfect fit for their family. However, there were complications revolving around her health.
“Within minutes of Sadie coming into the world, we knew something was very wrong. It’s hard to describe the devastation and fear we experienced as our baby was whisked away to another hospital to undergo a life saving surgery to connect her esophagus,” Michelle wrote on Sadie’s GoFundMe page.
Many diagnoses followed. Sadie had Down syndrome and spent two months in the NICU.

Later, she needed heart surgery and then came the Type 1 diabetes diagnosis. Doctors have been challenged on how to best manage Sadie’s diabetes because her age, needs, and size have presented as a uniquely difficult case.
Self-awareness and good verbal skills can make a great difference in a child’s ability to understand if and when their blood sugar levels are a cause of concern. Therefore, Sadie’s parents thought that a diabetic alert Labrador would make a great, and life-changing, addition to the family.
Hero has certainly confirmed his name to be a true characteristic of his. Making sure Sadie’s blood sugar levels are stable is his main goal.
When Hero paws at the left hand of Greg or Michelle, it means that their daughter’s blood sugars have been dropping below 100. When he paws at their right hands, it mean Continue reading

Stomach Aches and Diabetes: What Gives?

Stomach Aches and Diabetes: What Gives?

There’s a lot to consider with chronic stomach pain, but please digest this—stomach aches aren’t normal.
Stomach irritation complaints are seemingly easy for healthcare providers to brush aside as insignificant. “Many patients go undiagnosed and undertreated because the gastrointestinal tract has not been traditionally associated with diabetes and its complications,” Clinical Diabetes tells us. And with 75 percent of all people visiting diabetes clinics complaining of gastrointestinal issues, there’s a common malady at hand.
Diabetes and the Gut
Diabetes is a complex condition that has the potential to wreak havoc on organs, including the bowel. The length of your diabetes diagnosis and how often your blood sugars are at a normal level impact bowel disease.
Healthcare providers are very tuned into exterior neuropathy and checking a patient’s feet because they are visible and measureable. When it comes to the bowel, it can be another story. The bowel is just as vulnerable to neuropathy, but it’s not easily seen or tested—every action in this area is invasive, meaning doctors must use instruments to look into your body. Neuropathy in the gut can slow down or speed up motility, the normal rate of contractions in the gut, resulting in gastrointestinal upset.
People with diabetes who are prone to stomach neuropathy have also been linked to a higher incidence of autoimmune gut diseases, and like it or not, autoimmune disease breeds more autoimmune disease.
When a patient mentions diabetes and gut symptoms, providers should pay attention.
Identifying the Culprit

    Type 1 diabetes vaccine hailed as 'significant step'

    It may be possible to reverse type 1 diabetes by training a patient's own immune system to stop attacking their body, an early trial suggests. Their immune system destroys the cells that make insulin, the hormone needed to control blood sugar levels. A study in 80 patients, published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, showed a vaccine could retrain their immune system. Experts describe ...
