Drug Free for Diabetes

Most centenarians are drug-free most of their lives. Naturally, a long life is always a drug-free life. Obviously, a drug-dependent individual is more often than not plagued by ailments, which are enemies of longevity.

Your body is very forgiving. Even after years of abuse, your body is still capable of recovering from any disease, if you give it the opportunity, because your body has its unique self-healing power.

Unfortunately, Western medicine does not take into consideration the basic concept that your body is designed to regulate and repair itself, and therefore does not address self-healing, which is always made in deference to more invasive procedures, such as administering a drug.

When you give your body a drug that replaces a substance your body is capable of making itself, you body then becomes weaker, not stronger, and begins not only to manufacture less of that substance, but also to become more dependent on the outside source, which is usually the drug.

In addition, the safety of drugs is a major concern. Most recently, the FDA expressed concern for the safety of Avandia, a multi-billion dollar drug for type 2 diabetes after the evaluation of 42 studies of the drug by Dr. Steven Nissen of the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. Dr. Nissen's groundbreaking findings indicated the increased risk for heart attack for patients on Avandia.

Some, if not all, pharmaceutical drugs are unsafe. This is an indisputable and unfortunate fact!

Unreliable drug tests abound in the medical and pharmaceutical research community. Drug tests prior to their approval may not be reliable due to the following reasons:

  • Pharmaceutical companies may often influence medical researchers, through coercion, incentive, and even threat, to produce the desired results in clinical trials. There have been many cases of data fabrication in clinical trials of drugs in order to facilitate their intended applications.
  • Clinical trials usually involve a small number of people, and may not truly reflect the outcome of those who will ultimately be using those drugs after their approval.
  • Drugs tested on animal models may be biased and even irrelevant. An artificially induced disease in non-human animals may not yield results relevant to a spontaneous, naturally occurring human disease.

There can be no absolute safety of any pharmaceutical drug. That is why pharmaceutical companies often save their skin with a barrage of warnings of possible and potential side effects. If a drug does not kill you, its many side effects might. In fact, many people actually die every year from drug complications, drug overdoses, or inappropriate drug combinations.

Given its very toxic nature, do not reach out for an over-the-counter drug without thinking; even for any prescription drug, you should be cautious before taking it.

Even the incurable diabetes can be controlled without the use of insulin or other medication: How To Fight Type 2 Diabetes And Win uses primal foods and natural remedies to control diabetes and its complications, to reduce or eliminate insulin or oral anti-diabetic drugs. These remedies not only strengthen your pancreas but also reverse your insulin resistance.

So refrain from taking any over-the-counter drug and medication. The Home Made Medicine teaches you how to prepare and make your home-made remedies from herbs for all ailments and disorders, including shampoos and mouthwash. You save a lot over not using those toxic over-the-counter drugs and medications. Live a drug-free longevity life!
