DID YOU KNOW ?
* About 17,000,000 Americans have diabetes. That's 6.2% of our population or about one in every 16 people in the U.S. have diabetes! WOW !
* Approximately 2,700 Americans are newly diagnosed with diabetes EVERY DAY, or about one million per year. If this were a viral or bacterial communicable disease it would no doubt be considered a NATIONAL EPIDEMIC! 2,700 newly diagnosed cases of diabetes EVERY DAY! Unbelievable!
* Due to complications from diabetes some 82,000 lower limb amputations occur per year. This averages to be about 225 Americans becoming permanently maimed EVERY DAY! Are you or your loved one destined to become one of these statistics? If I told you that there was information available that may help prevent many of these amputations, wouldn't it be worth your time to investigate?
* Diabetes causes 12,000 - 24,000 new cases of blindness every year. This means an average of 33-64 Americans lose their sight - permanently - EVERY DAY due to complications of diabetes. Are yours or a loved one's eyes failing? Would you like to know some simple steps you can take that may not only prevent diabetic retinopathy from developing into permanent blindness, but may even help eyesight to return to pre-diabetes normal condition? "Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection", reveals secrets that may even help PREVENT cataracts or glaucoma in diabetics.
* Diabetes accounts for nearly 315 Americans PER DAY beginning dialysis or receiving a kidney transplant. Will you or a loved one become one of these statistics? (Information within the new ebook may help prevent this too!)
* About 60-70 % of diabetics have mild to severe nerve damage resulting in slowed digestion, carpal tunnel, impaired sensation in feet or hands, or impotence/erectile dysfunction. Research has shown Vitamin B6 to be one of the nutrients that may relieve carpal tunnel, with other B vitamins assisting in repairing nerve damage. At present I am accumulating information that can help solve the pains of diabetic neuropathy. When this chapter is written it will be sent to all who have purchased the book.
* Adults with diabetes have heart disease and stroke rates 2 - 4 times higher than non diabetics. About 73% of diabetics have high blood pressure. Would you like to learn some VERY simple ways how you may lower your blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglycerides, without using high dollar prescription medicines or possible side effects?
* Diabetes ranks as the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. being listed as the "primary" cause of death to about 200 Americans EVERY DAY! Plus diabetes is listed as a "contributing factor" in almost 400 more deaths per day in the U.S. Thus, diabetes helps kill about 600 AMERICANS EVERY DAY! Will you or a loved one become one of these statistics? Is your family going to be one of those devastated by losing you to this deadly disease?
In June 2002, I watched helplessly as my mother-in-law lost the battle and passed away due to complications of diabetes. No child, spouse, or friend should have to witness that.
She had lived in a controlled environment for several years, strictly observing dietary and medicinal guidelines - yet even following the best of today's medical advice and treatments, she still developed renal (kidney) failure and died at the young age of 71. (My personal opinion; I'm not convinced that the renal failure wasn't in part caused from the daily insulin injections as the manufacturer of one of the popular insulin's uses the dreaded Ecoli bacteria in it's manufacturing processes. I can't help but wonder just how safe this really is.)
"Symptoms" identify problems BEFORE they develop into "complications". If you solve the root cause of the symptom, the "symptoms" disappear and never develop into complications, because the root cause was solved.
Vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and amino acids (protein building blocks) may solve the "symptoms" before they develop into "complications"! Thus, complications may be controlled. The choice is yours.
I'm sure you don't want to put your family through the misery of watching you suffer, do you? Neither are you apt to cherish the concept of a controlled lifestyle, continual doctor visits and medications, and risk losing limbs, eyesight, or even your life to this disease.
The accepted, standard protocol medical treatments of today rarely, if ever, COMPLETELY HEAL anyone with diabetes. In fact, I'm not sure medical science has totally healed their first patient of this disease. At best they may be able to extend life "temporarily" though a measure of "control" of the various symptoms.
Complications such as amputations, blindness, liver/kidney failure, restricted diets and lifestyles, and possibly pre-mature death are what you have to look forward to; unless ... YOU discover a better way.
I'm not sure we can rely on the pharmaceutical companies to find solutions to the devastating diseases of our generation. They are in business to make money, and finding cures to health problems chop away at the base of the money tree. If they can't patent it and make hundreds of millions or billions of dollars then they oppose it. (To give you an idea of how much money is being made off diseases without cures, imagine 17,000,000 diabetics testing their blood sugars 3 times per day, at a cost of about $65 - 75 per month just for test strips. $17 million patients x $65 x 12 months and you will find that the test strip industry in the U.S. alone generates over $12 billion in sales each year. If you were on the receiving end of this money train, would you do anything to cause it to stop? Not likely!)
Of course you may wonder: "Is it possible for overweight people to become deficient in vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and amino acids (protein building blocks)" ? Can the general population from wealthy nations such as the U.S. be suffering from vitamin/mineral “malnutrition” ? Emphatically, YES and YES !
In fact, deficiencies may help cause the obesity in the first place, then the obesity become a factor in the development of other problems such as diabetes, heart problems, cancer, or a host of other medical problems. And the U.S. is not excepted. When you read "Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection", you will begin to see the near unbelievable figures quoted from reputable sources concerning various common vitamin and mineral deficiencies in the U.S.
New research offers substantial evidence to PROVE that ALL, not some but ALL the common symptoms of diabetes may be the RESULT of MULTIPLE vitamin/mineral/amino acid/enzyme deficiencies and toxicities.
Let's examine this from a philosopher's viewpoint for a moment.
All, repeat ALL, CAUSES of serious health problems fall within three very broad categories.
1. The first category is physical injuries caused by outside sources, whether accidental or intentional. This category can be further subdivided to include anything that causes either “immediate” or “delayed” major structural damage to the skin, bone, muscles, or organs.
“Immediate” damage can be from a broad spectrum of physical causes; automobile accidents, burns, gun shot wounds, work related injuries, sports injuries, falling off a ladder, a piano falling out of a tenth story window, etc…, etc…, etc...
“Delayed” would include such causes as ingestion/inhalation/skin absorption over a period of time of such things as farm or work chemicals, preservatives, fertilizers, insecticides, side effects of pharmaceutical or over-the-counter drugs, cigarette smoke, smog, etc…, etc…, eventually leading to illnesses/diseases such as various cancers, emphysema, other organ damage, etc... Many of these the body can effectively ward off with anti-oxidants and various amino acids - PROVIDED, of course - that we supply our bodies with the "ingredients" it needs to function properly.
2. The second major category is illnesses/diseases caused from any of the countless bacterial or viral infections. This category includes such infections as AIDS/HIV, anthrax, encephalitis, West Nile, influenza, smallpox, measles, common colds, pneumonia, SARS, etc…, etc…, etc... We term many of these as “communicable” diseases, often able to be passed from one individual to another. Most all of these type illnesses have at least two symptoms in common - fever and often, but not always, the ability to be transmitted to others.
3. The third category are illnesses caused from vitamin, mineral, enzyme, or amino acid (protein) deficiencies/overabundances-toxicities.
FOR A GREAT MANY YEARS IT'S BEEN A WELL KNOWN FACT OF SCIENCE THAT DEFICIENCIES IN VITAMINS, MINERALS, ENZYMES, or AMINO ACIDS (PROTEIN BUILDING BLOCKS) CAN AND WILL CAUSE the various "SYMPTOMS" OF ILLNESS AND DISEASE.
* Vitamin C deficiency causes scurvy;
* Vitamin D deficiency causes rickets;
* Vitamin A deficiency causes night blindness;
* Vitamin B-1 deficiency causes beri beri;
* Iron deficiency can lead to anemia;
* Fluorine deficiency causes tooth decay;
* Calcium deficiency leads to osteoporosis and can increase the risk of bowel cancer, elevated cholesterol, cause heart palpitations, nervousness, arthritis, and more;
* Fiber deficiency can cause constipation;
* Deficiency of the amino acid tryptophan may cause migraines, insomnia, depression;
* Potassium deficiency can cause hypoglycemia and irregular heartbeats;
* Chronic deficiencies of the amino acid alanine may lead to muscle loss and poor glucose tolerance;
and the list goes on and on and on. No lie, I could give you a list of several hundred known "symptoms" of illness that have been traced back to vitamin/mineral/amino acid deficiencies. The list above is just a tiny sampling.
But the list is even greater than what has been identified. Let me explain. There are LITERALLY thousands of natural enzyme reactions happening in the body daily as the body synthesizes nutrients into compounds that it needs to function properly. An excellent example of this is vitamin B6. To use B6 efficiently, the liver combines B6 with zinc, magnesium, B2, and the amino acid cystine to create the activated form of B6 known as pyridoxal-5-phosphate, or activated B6. No longer is it simply vitamin B6, it's an entirely new composition.
Now what happens, what "symptoms" develop when the body becomes deficient in pyridoxal-5-phosphate? We all know that at least one "symptom" HAS to develop from this deficiency. Now, imagine that there are dozens or even hundreds of these many thousand enzyme reaction compositions that start becoming deficient, due to multiple vitamin deficiencies. Or that a deficiency of a composition such as pyridoxal-5-phosphate results in multiple symptoms.
It's no wonder modern science can't seem to figure out how to cure major diseases. First they need to identify which of these thousands of compositions aren't being synthesized and why. Only then will they find the missing link to ALL the major diseases of mankind.
But that’s it ! Since the human body has the ability to repair and regenerate itself (except brain cells), all disease or major harm to the human body comes from one of these 3 basic categories above! Think about it. Any major medical problem can be traced back to one of these three broad categories, possibly even allergies, aging, and maybe even genetic predisposition to certain diseases.
Now medical science does not even hint that diabetes is the result of a viral or bacterial infection. Fever or being communicable/contagious do not seem to be "symptoms" of diabetes.
Nor does science link diabetes to an outside source such as an accident. Obviously we haven't all had the same "accident". Research has even noted that there is no definite proof linking diabetes to over-eating or excessive consumption of sugar.
There have been sufficient studies performed to conclude that even ancient Egyptians had diabetes, thousands of years before man began chemically processing cane or beet sugar. So processing techniques may not be to blame.
Later in this article you will see that although some man made chemicals may cause diabetes, sugar and other man made chemicals aren't necessarily always to blame.
It is prudent however to note, that some research indicates that diabetes may be genetically related. (My experience seems to be the exception to the rule. I do not know of one, not one of my relatives, brothers, sisters, parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, great grandparents, on either side of my family that have or have had diabetes. Although several of my in-laws by marriage have had diabetes, I seem to be the first on my side of the family.)
Therefore, since diabetes seems not to be injury/outside source related, nor is it bacterial/viral related, by default, the symptoms of diabetes must actually be the result of multiple vitamin/mineral/enzyme/amino acid deficiencies? Could this be possible? You betcha !
Does this mean that supplementation of certain vitamins/minerals/enzymes/amino acids may help your body to battle the various "symptoms" of diabetes?
Evidence presented in the ebook, "Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection", replies: YES, there is a very strong likelihood that supplementation can help alleviate symptoms.
Have you ever wondered what happens in the event of MULTIPLE or even "chain reaction" deficiencies or "shortages"?
(That's where I believe modern research is dropping the ball, going off in search of high dollar, man-made, patented chemical compounds that the body was not created to ingest. That's also probably the most likely cause for so many "side effects" from prescription pharmaceuticals. The body simply was not designed to deal with man made chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, insecticides, fertilizers, preservatives, smog, etc... In this century our bodies are facing a tremendous onslaught from countless man made chemical compounds. No wonder we have so many diseases! And where do we turn for answers? To more highly profitable man made chemical drugs!
How do multiple deficiencies relate to DIABETES symptoms? That's the subject of this website and my ebook.
For example, did you know it's been reported that "most" diabetics are as much as 80-85% deficient in magnesium? 80-85% DEFICIENT ! WOW ! Also that over 60% of Americans may not be getting sufficient magnesium?
Magnesium plays a role in over 300 enzymatic reactions in our bodies, including helping synchronize the release of insulin, functions in protein and hormone synthesis, (insulin is a hormone), helps control blood sugar, is used in 6 of the 9 steps of glycolysis, helps normalize blood pressure, aids in digestion of starches and sugars as well as production of stomach acid, is instrumental in relaxing of muscles such as is needed in EVERY beat of your heart, plus plays a role in supporting your immune system. A magnesium deficiency may cause insomnia, poor memory, urinary incontinence, irregular heartbeat, loss of control of blood sugar, etc…, etc..., just to name a few.
Yet diabetics are often 80-85% deficient in this very important mineral. “WHY” ARE WE DIABETICS DEFICIENT? My book, “Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection” , © ™ logically answers questions such as this.

Within these pages and those of my book, you will discover revolutionary new information concerning facts and statistics, care, diet, treatment, scientifically KNOWN CAUSES, and possible CURES for type II, and insulin dependent sugar diabetes.
You read it right ! Medical research has identified several compounds as PROBABLE PRECURSORS or CAUSES of diabetes! Yet the compounds are still easily obtained both in over-the-counter compounds and prescribed by doctor's daily!
For example, Did you know that the "Physician's Desk Reference" lists diabetes as a side effect of steroid use? Doctor's KNOW that steroids can cause diabetes! Just a few of the more familiar names of steroids are hydrocortisone, norgesterone, prednisone, and roxibolone. If you perform a google search for steroids you can find a more comprehensive list.
Yet doctors routinely prescribe steroids for various ailments. Could doctor's be inadvertently causing some to develop diabetes by prescribing steroids for some other condition? It's possible!
You will also learn of newly compiled research; secrets about diabetes that doctors either haven't understood, don't know, can't, or won't tell you, possibly for fear of accusations of malpractice.
Secrets that invariably link ALL (100%) of the common symptoms of diabetes to multiple vitamin, mineral, enzyme, and amino acid deficiencies. These secrets are revealed in my new ebook, "Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection".
If you could purchase information that may help you improve your circulation, helping to save yours or a loved one's legs from amputation, wouldn't you invest $19.95 ? (Especially when it's 100% risk free for 90 days?)
Would you be willing to take the time to read an ebook that may explain how to stop or reverse the damage being done to the diabetic's eyes, possibly even preventing blindness in you or a loved one?
Between 35-50% of men with sugar diabetes experience impotence or erectile dysfunction. Would you like to discover how a few simple vitamins and minerals may prevent or even reverse these symptoms?
"Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection", may be the ONLY book on the market that explains in detail how ALL the various symptoms of diabetes may be related to multiple vitamin, mineral, enzyme, and amino acid deficiencies.
It is the most thorough book to date linking diabetes "symptoms" to deficiencies of various vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and amino acids.
Not only does the book identify the vitamins, minerals, etc..., that are likely deficient to cause the various symptoms, but it will also logically explain how and why the deficiency occurred in the first place. Further, I immediately identify the reputable sources that report the extent of these national deficiencies.
Yes, many of the missing links that start the whole process of diabetes may have now been discovered.
In my humble, unprofessional opinion, until medical science understands and seeks out the root causes of the "symptoms" of diabetes in the first place, they will never be able to discover a total cure.
If your car won't start because you are out of gas, will it ever start without adding gas? Of course not! Changing the battery or putting more air in the tires won't help it to start. We MUST first identify the ROOT CAUSES of the symptoms of diabetes before we can find a total solution!
Treating "symptoms" with pharmaceutical drugs may alleviate some of the symptoms temporarily, but at what cost?
Additional, sometimes unpredictable, side effects from the pharmaceutical drugs?
Eventual blindness, amputations, liver/kidney failure?
Premature death?
This is what the future holds for you as a diabetic following the best of today's medical advice!
My ebook offers the foundation , identifying the root causes of the symptoms of diabetes for medical science and mankind to build upon.
As you will soon see, there are things you may easily do to help your body heal itself, granting you POWER over this complicated, insidious disease.
For example, did you know that:
Vitamin B6
The “master vitamin”, B6 , functions as a coenzyme in over 100 enzymatic functions, one being the activation of magnesium. B6 is ESSENTIAL for healthy blood and immune systems, promotes healthy cardiovascular function, supports healthy eyes, etc…
Sources report that over 50% of the U.S. population does not get enough B6 !
Did you know that vitamin B6 levels in our bodies naturally decline with age and even more so with diabetes?
Also, that B6 plays a critically important role in insulin formation as it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL in amino acid (protein) synthesis. (The body constructs the insulin hormone from 17 different amino acids. Without adequate activated B6 these amino acids don't get synthesized). Both magnesium and B6 play crucial roles in insulin and other hormone synthesizing processes.
B6 as well as other B vitamins are used by the body in the production of neurotransmitters, thus a deficiency of activated B6 may be one of several of the root causes of diabetic neuropathy. These are but a few of the symptoms that may result from a deficiency of B6.
Yet more than 50% of Americans don't get enough B6! It's been referred to as a "national deficiency" by some sources!" Why such a deficiency?
Partially because B6 requires other vitamins/minerals/amino acids/enzymes and a properly functioning liver to be activated. Taking a B6 supplement by itself will not necessarily provide you with the activated form you need for all the enzymatic functions! This too is discussed in "Diabetes, the Vitamin & Mineral Connection"©™.
Now, suppose we, as diabetics, happen to be deficient in both magnesium and activated B6, (which the odds are very, very likely since diabetics are often 80-85% magnesium deficient, 60% of Americans not getting enough magnesium, and 50% of our population not getting sufficient B6), then how efficient do you think these 300+ and 100+ enzymatic functions are going to be? Answer : not very efficient at all !
And if magnesium and B6 are as important in diabetes as I claim, with 60% of Americans not getting sufficient magnesium and 50% not getting enough B6, what effect, if any, could we expect these deficiencies have on the national diabetes rate? Should it not make diabetes become more prevalent in our society? (Is this not happening according to the statistics above?)
Can we really expect our bodily machine to function properly if it has CRITICAL "ingredients" necessary for at least 400+ different enzymatic functions missing? Of course not ! Would your car function properly with numerous CRITICAL parts missing? VERY, VERY doubtful !
Would you like another FREE report, this one revealing the secrets of B6? It will be sent to you automatically within about a week if you requested the free magnesium report offered above. Also, if you prefer not to wait for the reports, near the bottom of the magnesium report are various links to other valuable newsletter reports.
Chromium has been termed "the major" mineral involved in insulin production. Chromium is needed for the metabolism of proteins and fats and deficiency is thought to be a factor in weight gain.
A chromium deficiency may result in impaired glucose tolerance (otherwise known as insulin resistance). Other deficiency symptoms could include anxiety, fatigue, increased risk of arteriosclerosis, desire for sweets (sweet tooth), inadequate metabolism of amino acids (also NECESSARY for insulin production), etc..., etc...
Chromium may help stabilize blood sugar levels by working with Glucose Tolerance Factor (GTF), to help sugar pass from the bloodstream into the cells. Besides assisting in lowering blood sugar levels, chromium supplementation may also improve cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Are not high cholesterol and elevated triglycerides some of the other problems diabetics face?
Thus, looking at the reverse side of the coin, if chromium supplementation improves cholesterol and triglyceride levels, then a chromium deficiency may actually help CAUSE high cholesterol and triglycerides in the first place.
