Damaged
Cell Receptors and Diabetes
How does Diabetic medication work?
Certain medications increases insulin secretion while others try to
get the body to use it's own insulin more effectively and insulin
injections are just that, more insulin. Medical doctors usually try
the oral medications first and when those are no longer effective or
“maxed out” they then proceed onto insulin injections. (Insulin's job is to
push sugar out of the bloodstream into the cells where it is used for energy.)
There
can be a lot of insulin in the body, either being made by the body, or
introduced through injections, but the problem is that body is insulin resistant
because of damaged cell receptors that don’t allow the insulin to do the job
it needs to.
What are cell receptors?
Your body breaks down carbohydrates into sugar (glucose) which then enters
your blood stream. The more carbohydrates you eat, the higher your blood sugar
goes. In response, your body produces insulin. Insulin's job is to push
the blood sugar into the cells.
On the surface of the cells in your body are insulin receptors, which act
like little doors that open and close to regulate the inflow of blood sugar.
After many years of consuming a high-carbohydrate diet, your cells have been
bombarded with so much insulin that these doors begin to malfunction and shut
down.
Insulin resistance
The
medications introduce more insulin to force the sugar out of the body into the
now damaged cell receptors. Your body just ends up building up more and more
insulin resistance/tolerance so that the level of oral medications. or injections
only goes up and up.
Thus,
the high sugar levels are only a symptom of the diabetic condition, they are not
the diabetic condition itself!
Using
drugs to keep the blood sugar down is like having a fire burning in the living
room and turning on the exhaust fan in the kitchen to pull the smoke out of the
house. The fan pulls out the smoke (a symptom of the fire) but the fire is still
burning, and will consume the house unless it is handled.
The diabetic condition – the resistance to the insulin will just get worse.
What
needs to be done?
What needs to happen
is the body needs to resensitize the cells to the insulin your body is making
and as a result will lower your blood sugar levels.
Diet:
Diet needs to be used to give you body a rest so that it isn’t dealing with a
high amounts of sugar coming in. which requires your body to continuously
produce high levels of insulin to keep that blood sugar level down
A person with high blood sugars needs to eliminate ALL the starchy
carbohydrates from your diet and stop loading up your body with sugar. Even
small amounts of these starchy carbohydrates will prevent your sugar levels from
coming down. This action will give the body a "breather" and the
body’s insulin will be able to do it's job of pushing the sugar out of your
bloodstream and into the cells, your blood sugar level will drop naturally and
the high level of insulin in your body will drop along with it.
Exercise:
Another activity that will increase your body's sensitivity to insulin is doing
resistance exercises. These are exercises such as lifting weights or pulling or
pushing against muscles, by using various muscle exercise equipment. If
you are not physically up to this type of exercise, begin a walking program,
even if it is only walking for 20 minutes, 3 times a week

Healthy Bodies for People on the Go! - HEALTH TIP
Most vegetarians and meat eaters
have a common problem. They are almost always deficient in RAW PROTEINS. That’s
right! When protein is cooked, key nutrients are destroyed. When people consume
cooked proteins in excess, the liver and kidneys become overloaded with waste
products. This leads to fatigue, acidosis (body too acid) and gallbladder
problems. Raw proteins are much more easily digested; they contain amino acids
that help to break them down.
Now the next question you may have is: WHAT’S A RAW PROTEIN?
Raw fish (sushi)
Raw milk
Poached Eggs
Raw nuts
Rare Steak
Raw milk cheese
Raw soybean dishes
Raw seeds
Raw mushrooms
Sesame Seed butter (Tahini)

Side bar:
Carbs can be addictive! They create cravings, and to be perfectly honest, they taste good. You also develop a routine of the foods you eat, which makes it doubly difficult to stop eating certain foods when you also have a craving for that food.
Have you noticed this yourself, a sweet, or even a slice of bread, some potatoes or pasta, pulling at you with a sort of unrelenting magnetism? You know you shouldn’t, but...
The WSN Carb Control Formula puts you back in control!
It is sprayed on the tongue, has no taste but has great results. Within 4 to 6 days you find the urge, the cravings, the desire for carbs disappearing, completely!
Results, such as customers walking past a bakery without the urge to even look. Where before they would be drooling at the window. No cravings for cereal or toast at breakfast. Turning away fries and bread at dinner. Not a hint of desire for dessert at the restaurant.
Now you can experience the same results.
If losing weight or controlling your blood sugar levels is a real goal for you, and you still find yourself cheating, eating carbs or having cravings, our WSN Carb Control Formula is a must have. Basically, it takes the pain out of reducing or eliminating your carbs.
If in doubt, try this simple test after reading this email. Go into your kitchen and find a piece of cake, chocolate, bread, mashed potatoes or other high carb item. Put it on the counter and look at it. Now, how do you feel? Do your taste buds spring to life and does your mouth start to water? Do you have a desire to eat it? Do you find it hard to put it away and forget about it?
Imagine being able to look at that cake, chocolate or other carb rich food with no desire to devour it, and being just as happy eating something healthy.
This really can happen! It also does away with that "guilty feeling" because you ate something you know you shouldn’t have.
Wouldn’t it be worth it to solve this problem?
And don’t worry, it does not effect your taste buds, change the taste of food or even effect your appetite. In fact everything will still taste just as good as before, it simply reduces the urge to eat carbs.
The WSN Carb Control Formula is a safe product. It comes in a small spray pump bottle that contains enough to last you 45 days and it costs only 34.70.
Here is what some of our customers say about using the WSN Carb Control Formula:
*****************************
"I had real bad cravings for sugar. I like anything that tastes sweet. I decided to take the Carb Control Formula and after only 2 to 3 days my cravings are gone. It's been a month and I only need it from time to time when I'm under stress situations. It's been wonderful because I'm wearing jeans that I couldn't button before."
From Lin P. in Washington DC
*****************************
"My pattern would typically be that once I would start eating carbs, chocolate, ice cream, etc. I couldn't quit. I haven't done that after starting the Carb Control product. I've been able to easily limit the amount of carbs I eat at one sitting."
From Judith A. in Missouri
