About 4 years ago I was diagnosed as diabetic, type 2.  My doctor placed me on Avandia and Glucotrol combined and I began monitoring my fasting blood sugar daily.  I found that by taking these drugs, I could continue to drink my Dr. Pepper and eat my hotcakes with maple syrup and still log my morning glucose level below 125.  My A1C reading came down from 92 to 58 in less than 6 months.  My doctor was pleased with everything except my weight.  In a year and a half, I had gained more than 100 pounds.  I also had to take a daily does of furosimide (lasics) to prevent fluid build up.  I tried dieting and did lose about 30 pounds and then slid back to my old pattern.  I needed the caffeine fix every morning from Dr. Pepper. (I do not dirink coffee or tea.) 

I finally started researching my disease and discovered that insulin was indeed increased by these drugs, about 4X and was able to handle the large amounts of High Fructose Corn Syrup I was consuming.

Then I finally realized that the drugs were only helping me to continue my destructive lifestyle.

I stopped seeing my doctor since she obviously was educated by the pharma industry.  I began a regimen of no sugar, no HFCS, and reduced my refined carbs consumption. 

The weight began shedding at the rate of about 2 to 3 pounds per week.  My fasting blood glucose level has consistantly been below 115 and sometimes below 100.  So far I am down about 60 pounds and have now added excercise to my regimen.  In November I will take another A1C test to see how I am doing.

These drugs are designed to keep you forever in the disease plus designed to require more and more drugs to counter the side effects.

One of the insidious aspects of drug therapy is that it enables one to continue in the same destructive lifestyle.  Change doctors if you have one like my ex-doctor.

As I was reading this article, I began to realize that I had stopped  feeling stressed when reading these sad stories.  Our horrific fight with all these agencies, doctors , our government, and  the people of the world, is begining to come to a head.  Either people begin to get it or they won't.  

I am going to continue to help fight for health freedom as long as it is possible,  hopefully my personal opinion will  still count.

Ron Paul is a very important entity and we need him to be in office, for the sake of our survival. 

Another reason the doctors should be teaching lifestyle changes, including the reduction of high fructose corn syrup, sugar, increasing exercise and incorporating more natural modalities such as GTF chromium and Cinnamon Bark.
