Subject: Interesting reading on Diabetes
Not sure if anyone saw the news on the massive rise of diabetes in Children this morning. It's scary! I found this study from the year 2000! they have studies that show that 2 years gluten free for Celiacs can stop the body from producing anti-bodies against other organs - and can reverse diabetes in some people... BUT TOOK 2 YEARS for systems to fully go away! http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10931424 Then repeated in 2012 on a young boy WITHOUT Celiac - diabetes reversed! http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22729336 Here in a big study they only kept it up the diet for 6 months - then decided that although things were better... what if they had waited 2 years? http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12519846 I wonder how many doctors would say that diabetes is undeniably irreversible. It appears a subset of people that it can be reversed - once Intestinal permeability is under control. Whether that is using a GFD on its own or in combination with other means (probiotics, glutamine, zinc, removal of dormant infection).
