Revolt Of The Type 2s

Have you ever wondered why doctors and Big Pharma haven’t discovered a cure for Type 2 diabetes yet?

Given all their money and advanced technology, you’d think this might be easy.

But the reason doctors haven’t found a cure for Type 2 (and never will) is because…

They really aren’t looking for one!

Big Pharma and Big Medicine aren’t one bit interested in finding a cure for Type 2 because there’s far more money to be made by treating diabetes than curing it.

How much money?

Treating diabetes is a $400 billion a year global “industry” that’s growing as Type 2 continues to spread like crazy. (You might say they’re making a killing.)

By the end of this decade, revenues from diabetes treatments will grow to one trillion dollars annually. (That’s 1,000 billion dollars — or one million million bucks.)

How much money is this, really?

Most of us can’t even fathom a sum like this — so let me help you visualize it.

One million dollars is a stack of one-thousand dollar bills four inches in height.

A billion dollars is a stack of one-thousand dollar bills that’s 358 feet high — roughly 25 stories tall, or 25% of the height of the Empire State Building.

How about trillion dollars? How tall do you think that stack would be?

The staggering answer is: A stack of one-thousand dollar bills that’s 68 miles high!

“Wow, that’s a ton on money!”

Actually, all those thousand dollar bills would weigh over 10 tons — but it’s an enormous sum no matter how you measure it.

Why am I telling you this?

Because I want you to understand how much money is made by treating diabetes — and why the healthcare game is rigged to keep people sick, not to make them well.

And this goes far beyond diabetes.

You see, if we found cures for diabetes, cancer, heart disease — if these diseases vanished from our economy — the result would create a huge recession in the healthcare industry.

Drug companies would go broke. Their executives, salesmen, and research scientists would lose their jobs. Hospitals would close. Doctors would be forced to look for other work. And all those companies that make test strips, glucose monitors, diabetic foods, and motorized scooters would go out of business.

So as crazy as it seems, the way the economics of healthcare is currently structured…

More sickness is good for business

From the healthcare industry’s perspective, any illness that requires years (even decades) of treatment — like diabetes — is the perfect for profits.

Call me cynical if you like, but our medical system is more about “disease-care” than health care.

And if you’re currently caught in its clutches, I encourage you to escape while you can. Because the longer you remain a captive, the slimmer your chances of freedom will be.

The “cures” that will never come

While the PR agencies representing Big Pharma and Big Medicine promise us that “cures are just around the corner,” we won’t see them until the economics of disease-care are reformed.

And given how much money is currently being made, I’m not holding my breath until this happens. You shouldn’t either.

The truth is, we already have cures for many of the diseases that are plaguing us. They’re called prevention and self-care.

Numerous studies show that prevention and self-care (officially known as “diet and lifestyle modifications") are far more effective than medical treatments when it comes to reversing many of the top 10 killer conditions.

Education is better “medicine” than drugs

For example, simple lifestyle changes are twice as effective as drugs when it comes to fighting and defeating diabetes.

In one clinical trial of 3,000 people, reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, those who improved their diet and exercise habits for three years saw a 58% decrease in diabetes risk — whereas those taking the leading diabetic drug experienced only a moderate 31% decrease.

So why don’t doctors use patient education and self-care as the leading diabetes treatment?

You guessed it. Because there’s no money in it for Big Pharma, which has a stranglehold on how medicine is practiced in this country (not to mention much of the world).

This is why less than one percent of the $400 billion currently spent on diabetes treatment globally goes for education and self-care.

The truth is, doctors could put an end to Type 2 diabetes in a heartbeat by educating their patients and the general public about the foods and poor health habits that cause it in the first place.

But they aren’t even trying to because this would bring all of those drug and medical profits to a screeching halt.

Besides, this would seriously tick off the food industry, which rakes in hundreds of billions every year by selling us the very products that are wrecking our blood sugar and driving us into doctors’ offices and hospitals.

See what I mean when I say “the game is rigged against you?”

It’s time for Type 2s to revolt!

Despite the propaganda from Big Pharma and Big Medicine that “there’s no cure for Type 2,” thousands of diabetics have already freed themselves from a life sentence of drugs and medical treatments simply by changing their diet and getting more physical activity, as outlined in The 30-Day Diabetes Cure and other successful lifestyle-modification programs.

Their sugars remain low. Their symptoms have disappeared. Their pains have vanished. Their health, energy level, and sex drive have returned. And they’re feeling better than they have in decades.

This means no more finger-sticks. No more drugs. No more worries about complications. In effect, no more diabetes.

And the news of their success is spreading.

Recent statistics show that as many as 15% of Type 2s no longer take either insulin nor oral medications to control their condition.

Where do you stand?

Have you been able to get off diabetes drugs or lower your dosages due to diet and lifestyle changes? What have you done that’s been the biggest help?

Or are you still standing on the sidelines, needing a little more encouragement?

Either way, please share your story here. I’m eager to read how you’re doing — and how I can help.
