Resistance Behind Insulin Resistance

The following information is not intended to replace medical guidance from your doctor. As with all articles on health, I must say, before you change anything with your diet, check with your doctor to see if you can safely go off toxic foods.

The human body is complex, and there is no such one thing going wrong in the body. Some may have one symptom, but many symptoms and issues are occurring throughout the body.

The same is true of Insulin Resistance. It is not one issue, but many. Issues usually have a core element involved causing the difficulty. The core element involved with Insulin Resistance is the hormone Leptin. Modern medicine states they discovered this hormone in 1994. Chinese medicine, meaning ancient Chinese medicine, has known about this hormone for thousands of years, and many hormones yet to be discovered by modern medicine.

Leptin Resistance symptoms are constant hunger, inability to lose fat, insulin resistance, elevated blood sugar, increased perspiration, and reproductive problems such as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

For many decades dieticians, doctors, and governments have programed people to go on low-fat diets. This type of food interferes with the leptin hormone. The brain begins to send signals for this hormone to turn to the destructive side. When this occurs, people feel as if they cannot eat enough or crave the wrong “food.” Fat tissue secretes more and more of the leptin hormone. This causes the liver to secrete excess blood sugar, causing inflammation throughout the body. In my opinion, this is also a direct cause of Fibromyalgia. Eating a low-fat diet causes the body to go into what I call a “Negative Response.” A negative response is when the brain signals hormones to prepare the body for an untimely death. Leptin Resistance does not mean one has excess weight, but that can often be a symptom.

Look at low-fat diets. A low-fat meal will often contain almost six times the sugar of a natural fat meal. Many types of yogurt contain nearly as much sugar as a Mars bar.

Aseem Malhotra, a cardiologist and science director of Action on Sugar, a campaign group, said the findings showed some low-fat foods were loaded with sugar despite purporting to be healthy. He suggested manufacturers added to the risk of chronic diseases by misleading shoppers over such products’ ingredients.

A low-fat diet will replace fat with sugar. Refined sugar substitutes the taste of the food which fat had provided before. The next time you go to the market shopping for food, read the ingredients of low-fat food and see how much sugar is in it.

When someone tells you a low-fat diet is good for you, know it is a big fat lie!

Now, talk about fat. There is good fat and bad fat. The good fat is real fat, non-processed fat, meaning fat from natural meats, fats from grass-fed non-hormone butter, fats from coconut oil, olive oil, organic free-range eggs, avocados, and high-fat fish. The list is very long. How many remember reading my article in the 1980’s “Butter versus Margarine”? Now the bad fats, margarine, corn oil, and rapeseed oil, also known as Canola Oil, containing toxic erucic acid. Canola oil and soybean oil are used as an ingredient in pesticide products. Why? Because it kills! How did Americans come to accept toxic oils for consumption? A hundred years ago, when few Americans had coronary heart disease and Procter and Gamble made candles to light our homes, we had an invention, electricity to light our homes. This meant no more candles. So what did Procter and Gamble do with fewer candles to sell? They turned their candles into “food.” This food produced by Procter and Gamble was called Crisco, the first commercially marketed trans fat. Procter and Gamble promoted this new fat as a healthier all-vegetable shortening. Replace lard; use the healthy shortening they proclaimed.

According to LewRockwell.com, people who have the highest percentage of saturated fat in their diets have the lowest heart disease risk. Perhaps the last word on this subject should go to Julia Child, “Enjoy eating saturated fats, and they’re good for you.” Research the history of heart disease and insulin resistance.

Many of my students in Advanced Tai Yi School of Healing may remember me talking about my grandmother. She would take a cup of lard, cook her meat in the lard, use a half cube of butter on her bread, not once, but almost daily. She lived to be 103, never had heart disease.

The brain needs fat, like the body, needs water to survive. Starve the brain of good fats; you develop Leptin Resistance, which in turn produces Insulin Resistance.

Everyone with diabetes needs to change their diet if they have not already.

Do not go on a short-term diet; go on a life term diet.

Choose a diet you can live with versus a diet that kills you. Stop believing the government and old-world dieticians. Do the research yourself. Create your diet and do not go by someone else’s diet. Each person is different and needs different things in their diet. Please stop trying to become the photo retouched models being programmed into our brains. Allow your body to be what it wants to be, not what the news media, Hollywood, or corporations want it to be.

Every year, 647,000 Americans die from heart disease. How many of them were on low-fat diets with lots of sugar, eating margarine, rapeseed oil, and following old consciousness? How many would still be alive if they changed their diets to a healthy fat diet that existed before Procter and Gamble turned their candles into “food”?

A favorite quote from Jonah, “This is your life, this is about your life, and this is about the quality of your life.”

Educate, educate, and educate yourself more to see beyond the deception of corporate consciousness.
