1 out of 5 stars

For the past 5-1/2 weeks, my menu has been the same: one small salad around noon consisting of a cup of mixed greens, a poached egg on top, and a tablespoon of homemade dressing of olive oil, apple cider vinegar and chopped garlic. My dinner is generally the same except for the day we get freshly caught fish from our fish CSA. That fish is less than 3 oz. Every morning my blood sugar is about 200-210. Two hours after every meal it's about 185. I am on no medications. What can I do to help? I've lost about 35 lbs in 5-1/2 weeks as well. I have about 30 to go to get to my goal weight.

Look into the McDougall diet also known as the starch solution. A lot of people are losing weight and reversing their diabetes using it.

For diabetes, N-Acetly-Cysteine and freshly squeezed carrot juice daily helps a lot. This remedy came from Ted himself.

Also magnesium, coconut oil and ACV provide nourishment to the body. You should try all this in addition to the dietary changes you have already made.

Hi RP: Many of the high blood sugar or diabetes cases are a result of infections in the liver/gut/gallblader/pancrease area. May not be your case but simple dietary items will definitely help. Prior to retiring take Oil of Oregano softgels, and eat regular servings of Kefir with the other good foods in your current regimen. Two items which specifically increase the body's ability to metabolize sugar is the spice Cinnamon and the mineral Chromium.

Hope this helps and hear good news from you.

Thank you, Tim! I've just started taking 1000mcg of Chromium (Picolinate) in the morning. I always use coconut oil, so I'm happy to hear that's a good protocol too! I'm not sure if the Picolinate is the right Chromium, so if you have a suggestion I would really love that. I will keep you updated on progress. I'd also read that excess cortisol can be responsible for blood sugar issues, high blood pressure, etc., so I'm looking for something that will help lower that naturally too. :)

Hi Redpanda...Chromium picolinate should certainly help to reduce your blood sugar levels safely.

There are various reasons for abnormally high sugar levels in the blood. When you take chromium and vanadium together every day, these two minerals actually help the insulin to deliver and escort the sugar into the host cells properly where it is most needed for energy. So it will increase the absoption of sugar into the cells, thus normalizing this mechanism, making that aspect more efficient. And that's why taking these two minerals can actually help to cure type diabetes ll. Read this. Also from the research, you must take more than 200 mcgs of chromium per day just to maintain chromium at ordinary healthy levels. So to cure a large deficiency of chromium you must first take more than that dose for a while to more quickly cure that deficiency.

Concerning high sugar levels, the other problem is the body's own mechanism for clearing(excreting) or reducing dangerous sugar levels in the blood. For various reasons (usually due to lack of proper minerals in the diet) this mechanism can become corrupted or inefficient. So you can use Chanca piedra to help alleviate that side of the problem -- 500 mgs twice a day or just take the tea form. CP excretes the sugar quickly, efficiently and safely from the body via the urinary pathway. Other benefits from taking CP are: it lowers blood pressure, relieves pain, lowers blood sugar, lowers blood calcium, removes gallstones and kidney stones, lowers blood fats, lowers cholesterol, highly protective for the liver and kidneys and it's a potent anti-viral.

Other herbs like Gymnema sylvestre will also help to both clear dangerous blood sugar levels blood and will also help to reduce the virulence of fungus, which is why I advise its use against Candida. But, because of all it's other many benefits, I still think Chanca piedra would perhaps be more suitable for your particular problem.

RP: Yes, the picolinate form of Chromium is best, and ideally add 500mg Niacinamide or Inositolhexaniacinate (flush free forms of Niacin) with it (for best results). You can buy Cinnamon in capsules but in my case is irritating on the tummy so I take an herbal sugar-aid complex of Cinnamon/Gymnema/Mulberry which works fine.

To reduce cortisol increase anti-inflammatory foods or herbs like Pineapple, Ginger, Turmeric, and add anti-stress techniques like Meditation, Yoga, and Relaxing Music or Frequency Harmonics for the body & mind.

Neem tea is effective for lowering blood sugar and blood pressure. In India neem tree is known as the village pharmacy because of its ability to heal a range of health issues - from joint pain, diabetes, high bp, asthma, to skin and dental issues. When I was growing up it was a common sight to see people break a twig and chew on it every morning. They never had any teeth-related issues. Be warned that the tea is extremely bitter but I've got used to it, lol. Amazon sells it. Read up on the benefits of neem, there is a plethora of info on the web. I also put the used neem tea leaves around my plant roots, both potted and in ground. No pests! Love when I can recycle like that. Hope this is helpful.
