Diabetes
|
Conventional medicine continues to insist that dietary sugar has no connection to behavior problems, mood swings, depression or the increased incidence of diabetes. Yet all of these problems have increased with the increased sugar consumption. The average american eats 20 1/2 teaspoons of added sugar a day. Decades of research supports the fact that a "sweet tooth" will invariable lead to a lifetime of poor health and premature death. A growing number of young children are being diagnosed with diabetes. Children are being raised with sugar laden infant formulas and sugar at every meal plus candy, pop, and other high sugar foods. Is it any wonder that their pancreas' are failing at a higher rate? This obsession with sugar leads to obesity in both adults and children and this extra weight is directly involved with diabetes. In addition to changing your diet and getting regular exercise, a good multivitamin/mineral supplement is a must. The following nutritional supplements can help rebuild and/or repair the pancreas.
