For most folks, a diabetes diagnosis changes everything.
Suddenly, you’re facing a lifetime of finger sticks and increasing medications. And you’re battling sickening drug side effects along with the complications of the disease.
Frankly, it’s exhausting just thinking about it. So if you’re feeling overwhelmed, I get it. It’s perfectly normal. It would be surprising if you weren’t feeling the pressure.
But here’s the thing. Traditional diabetes treatments aren’t designed to help you overcome the disease. Instead, they’re made to help you manage your symptoms.
And don’t get me wrong, if things remain exactly as they are, they’re essential. But what if there was a diabetes “treatment” designed to help drive the disease into remission. One that was intended to help you ditch the meds and go back to living life normally?
I’m guessing you’d choose that treatment instead.
And it turns out you CAN. Because the latest research spots what just may be the best possible diabetes treatment ever, and it’s NOT a drug at all. It’s a specific target to aim for. And if you hit it, you could get something no diabetes drug in the world can promise: a complete reversal of the disease.
Instead of relying on meds, you could quit them altogether. And instead of obsessing over blood sugar and suffering through constant painful finger pricks, you could finally win back your freedom.
The KEY to reversing diabetes
Let’s be honest, as far as the drug industry is concerned, the only thing better than someone who needs meds is someone who needs those meds forever. That’s why they push the myth of diabetes as a “forever” disease we must learn to live with and manage.
But the new study is proof positive that another kind of forever is possible. In many cases, you can reverse diabetes and quit your meds. Because according to the new research, dropping just 15 percent of your body weight should do the trick.
That’s 30 pounds if you’re at 200, for example.
Now that might sound like a tall order at first. Weight loss can be challenging. But you not only have some major motivation to do it (no more diabetes!). I’ll also give you a powerful tool to help you easily hit that goal in just a moment.
First, let me show you WHY you’ll want to make an effort.
An incredible 70 percent of patients who hit that target had their diabetes go into remission within two years in the new study. The same folks also enjoyed some immediate benefits, including better blood pressure, liver improvements, reversal of sleep apnea, and more.
Like I said, weight loss can seem difficult. Trust me, I get it. I‘ve had plenty of firsthand experience. But some tricks can help anyone reach that 15 percent goal… even if you’ve failed on every other diet that you’ve tried.
5 tricks to help you drop 15%
First, drink more water. In the short term, water lowers blood sugar levels helping you to manage your diabetes. Plus, water helps keep your belly full and crushes cravings leading to weight loss in the long term.
This trick is especially effective if you down a tall glass of cool H2O right before a meal. In one study, drinking water combined with a bit of extra care with food choices increased weight loss by 44 percent over 12 weeks.
Second, boost your protein. Protein is more satisfying, with one study finding it makes you feel 15 percent fuller. It also reduces levels of ghrelin, the “hunger” hormone.
This not only helps you eat less during your meal. Getting a case of the munchies when your blood sugar drops back down is common with diabetes. So it also can help ensure you won’t be looking for something else to snack on shortly after you eat.
Third, sleep more as studies show better rest means less eating and more weight loss. Getting quality shuteye, once again, helps control that hunger hormone and suppresses your appetite.
One study found better sleep will improve your odds of a successful diet by a third. Plus, you know what happens when you’re up late. You’re more likely to raid the cupboard for some snacks or to break open up that bag of Halloween candy early.
Fourth, move each day. Don’t worry, you don’t have to join a gym. And there’s no need to torture yourself on workout equipment. Go for a brisk walk, take the stairs, and try these 5 easy exercises for out-of-shape beginners instead.
Fifth, reduce your carbs. Dropping the junk carbohydrates is a good idea for anyone. But if you have diabetes, it’s essential to bring your carb intake down as low as possible.
This step alone will lead to significant weight loss. You can easily lose the entire 15 percent and then some if you really commit to a ketogenic-style diet. The fat will practically melt away, and your glucose control with shoot up.
That, more than anything, will increase your chances of leaving your diabetes in the dust. And, with your doctor’s permission, could get you off your medications, too.
