3 Tricks for Managing Diabetes Your Doctor Won’t Tell You


When you leave your doctor’s office, do you ever wonder what he’s not telling you?  
Every appointment, he tells you to eat less sugar and go on more walks, but aren’t there other ways to get your diabetes under control?

>>>Ever wish you could REVERSE your Type 2 Diabetes? Discover 3 Proven Steps with this discovery from a recent Newcastle University medical study

Here’s 3 tricks to manage your diabetes that your doctor won’t tell you:
  1. Eat More Fat
You read that right. Eat more fat.
That’s because fat helps your body absorb insulin. That means the more fat you eat, the easier it’ll be to manage your blood sugar.
But here’s the kicker: It’s got to be the right type of fat.
You’re looking for Unsaturated Omega-3 Fat.
Here’s some great sources:
  • Fish
  • Eggs (Any eggs labeled “enriched” have plenty of omega-3)
  • Grass-fed beef (There’s lots of omega-3 in the grass)

  1. Do Some Pushups…
Or any kind of strength exercises.
All the cardio your doctor tells you to do will increase your insulin absorption a little, but to really keep your body regulated you’ve got to get your entire body moving.
The best way to do that is any exercise that focuses on strength.
You want to avoid straining yourself, but make a habit of doing a few pushups every day, throw in some body squats, and soon you’ll be taking tighter control of your blood sugar.
Not to mention it’ll get rid of stress, and give you plenty of energy.

  1. Relax
Laying back and keeping cool are vital to regulating your blood sugar. Stress causes physical distress on the body which affects blood glucose levels.
Not to mention, when you’re stressed out it’s easy to overeat, which obviously wreaks havoc on your blood sugar.

For easy relaxation, try out simple meditation or breathing exercises.
These tricks will help, but…
If You Want to REVERSE your Type 2 Diabetes and never worry about your blood sugar again, here’s what you need:

6 Secrets That Helped Me Lose Weight

                                                Click Here To Check Out The Full Diet



When most people think about weight loss, they think about diets and diet plans. However, diets are almost always temporary fixes that will help you lose a few pounds, but as soon as you go back to eating normally, you will gain back everything you lost, and sometimes a little extra to boot. Continue reading if you want to find out how you can get real weight loss that will stay off.

1. Give Your Body What it Needs

Junk foods and processed foods simply do not have the nutrients, vitamins, helpful bacteria, amino acids, minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, and antioxidants that your body needs to function properly. This is why you will always feel awful after attempting to fill up on junk and processed foods. Instead, choose foods that contain actual nutrients and other important compounds. Real lean meats, fruits and vegetables, and whole grains are a great starting point. Once you do begin to give your body what it needs, you will find yourself craving these healthy foods instead of junk foods.

2. Try Fermented Foods

One of the biggest differences that research has found between people who are of a normal body weight and those who are overweight is in the populations of gut bacteria they have. Having high levels of healthy gut bacteria is vitally important to properly digesting food and can affect countless other areas of your body including your brain chemistry. When you choose fermented foods like kefir, kombucha, miso, sauerkraut, and other fermented vegetables, you can change the balance of bacteria in your gut from bad bacteria that slow you down to good bacteria that will help improve your digestion, mood, and so much more.

3. Get Things Moving

Ideally, you should have about the same amount of stuff coming out of your body that you’re putting into it. However, many people live inactive lives and then eat a lot of refined grains, dairy products, and fatty foods. These all create a build-up of mucus, slows down digestion, and causes inflammation. Be careful about the foods that you are putting in your body that will slow down digestion because this will make you feel awful and can cause some pretty severe bloating. Choosing foods that are high in fiber and limiting these congestion-causing foods will help get your digestive system moving.

4. Get Plenty of Rest

Not getting enough rest will prevent you from losing the weight that you want no matter what else you’re doing to lose weight because your body needs 7 and a half to 9 hours of sleep every night. If you are not allowing your body to get enough rest, you will have an uncontrollable appetite during the day and will have stronger cravings for junk food. Make sure you are allotting enough time every night to sleep and that you try to turn off the television, computer, or phone at least an hour before going to sleep so that your parasympathetic nervous system has time to power down before you get into bed.

5. Cut Down the Intensity Levels

When it comes to exercising, studies have shown that doing excessive intense exercises every single day without allowing their bodies time to rest in between have more intense sugar cravings than other people. They also tend to have a higher amount of cortisol in their bloodstream which leads to weight gain. Instead of falling into the mistake of over-exercising which can often lead to over-eating, try lower intensity exercises like yoga. Yoga can also help improve your digestion and can relieve stress. Stress causes the release of hormones that promote weight gain, so relieving the stress in your life is a great way to help maintain and continue with weight loss. You can also try walking every day which is low-intensity and stress-relieving as well.

6. Detox Your Bathroom Cabinet

There could be a whole army of secret enemies to your weight loss lurking in your closet in the form of your favorite lotions, shampoos, and other beauty products. These beauty products that regularly come into contact with your skin contains a number of harmful chemicals that can prevent your body from losing weight because of the many negative effects these chemicals have on the body. Whether you replace them one at a time or have a great purging of your closet, getting the harmful chemicals out of your closet and replacing them with natural and organic products will help you begin to lose weight, and will have a number of other health benefits like the prevention of cancer caused by these chemicals.

How To Heal Cavities Naturally

Each year millions of people around the globe suffer from painful cavities and other dental issues. As a matter of fact, the NIDCR (National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research) has conducted a study which reveals that nearly 26% of all adults from the ages of 20 to 64 have untreated tooth decay that can later get much worse. Of course many people's first thought when they notice a cavity forming is that they have to get to the dentist as soon as possible, but that's actually not true. Here are just a few of the most common ways to naturally heal cavities without having to make an appointment with a dentist.

1- Change Your Diet 

– Most tooth decay is caused by the foods we eat and the beverages we drink. This is why you want to cut out sugary foods and drinks from your diet in order to help your cavities heal. You also want to include mineral rich foods in your diet such as grass-fed organic dairy, olive oil, kefir, grass-fed meats, bone broths and seafood.

2- Use a Mineralizing Toothpaste 

– You may want to also try ditching your traditional fluoride toothpaste for a mineralizing one. Many mineralizing toothpastes can be fairly expensive, but you can always make your own with a about 4 tablespoons of coconut oil, approximately 20 drops of peppermint oil, 2 tablespoons of aluminum free baking soda, a bit of calcium powder and a tablespoon of xylitol or 1/8 teaspoon of Stevia.

3- Oil Pulling 

– Another easy and natural way to heal cavities is by oil pulling. This method has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries because is draws out toxins from the body and cleans the entire mouth. The process of oil pulling consists of swishing a tablespoon of coconut oil around in your mouth for about 20 minutes before spitting it out into a plastic bag to throw into the waste. You don't want to spit the oil into your sink as it will be full of bacteria. Also, keep in mind that the best time to do oil pulling is in the morning before you brush your teeth.
