In today’s world there seems to be a rising epidemic of physiological symptoms being diagnosed as sickness and disease. This is nothing short of the case when it comes to Type II Diabetes. While the CDC estimates that the number of American adults diagnosed with Type II Diabetes to reach over 30 million; with 79 million said to be “prediabetic”, it outrages me that society is content with these soaring numbers. At Optimal Chiropractic in Crown Point, Indiana, I feel that it is my duty to the community to debunk the “disease” and give you a natural and successful way to prevent or eliminate the disease for good.
To start the conversation about eliminating Type II Diabetes, we must first understand what exactly it is. Type II diabetes is an acquired disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to insulin resistance. When the human body resists insulin, the pancreas naturally secretes more and more insulin in order to maintain normal glucose levels. When the disease is progressing, the production will decrease over time to a level that can no longer keep the bodies insulin levels normal. Treatment for Type II diabetes is extremely costly when going the conventional medical route of medications, surgery for failed kidneys, limbs, or sensory functions such as eye sight. The bottom line is, Diabetes is bad news-but this does not have to be the case for you. It outrages me that people go to their primary care doctors, finding out they are deemed “type II diabetic” or “pre-diabetic”; only to be turned to medications that never fix the underlying issue; but merely mask the problem. Your doctor would much rather throw you a script for medication for the next 20-40 years, than to give you the facts of the disease to actually eliminate it. And why wouldn’t they do that? Your medication and treatment for diabetes is on average putting an extra $250,000 in their pocket, because you are never healing and getting healthy again. You will be under the care of a doctor for the rest of your life unless you take initiative to heal yourself and eliminate the disease.
So what is the truth? Type II Diabetes is NOT a death sentence! Optimal Chiropractic at Crown Point, Indiana can be your outlet for a healthier lifestyle. Has any doctor ever told you that you can get rid of type II diabetes through diet and lifestyle changes? THEY SHOULD HAVE! You go to the doctor to get healthy, so why are you always sick?
