Many writers of a major disease, have as their main point, for you to achieve early detection of the disease. They want you on a treatment plan as soon as possible.

That is a good objective, but it is the best that they can do, if they can't achieve prevention for you.

Who is better qualified to tell you how to prevent diabetes than someone who has cured himself of diabetes?

No one! He is the person who knows what causes diabetes. He then used that information to cure himself. He also is curing others with this information.

An adult diabetic will have a glucose reading above 120. On a yearly physical exam, Charlie Masison was told that his reading was 146. Without real symptoms, this was a shocker. The doctors said that they don't know what causes it, but suspect a gene, virus, or injury. Charlie was given medicine to take for the rest of his life. He never took it.

A neurologist treating a nearby patient for neuropathy, who had toes damaged and part of the legs, said he didn't know what caused it. When asked about the medicine he was giving, he said it was to only deaden the nerve endings so that they would not tell the brain of the pain that was occurring as diabetes was eating away some of their legs.

Charlie is on the record of a prestigious Boston clinic in having cured himself of diabetes. He says the key was in analyzing many medical approaches from around the world and finding what caused his diabetes. He wrote Winning The Fight Against Diabetes so that others could cure themselves.

Because the cause of diabetes is not a gene, you don't have to shiver and shake if your family has it.. In spite of some ads on TV, your mother, father, grandparent, or further up the family tree, does not damn you to having diabetes. You will also learn that because you are an African American, native Indian, Portuguese, or any other ethnic group does not mean that you will become a diabetic. Because the cause of diabetes is not a gene, you don't have to be afraid that an unknown gene will get to you too. You will learn that you are the one that causes diabetes in your own body!

You develop diabetes by putting the wrong food and beverage in your body. Stress can play a minor role. But very few people have significant daily stress that could cause at least part of the diabetic problem.

Charlie has provided a list of the Bad Foods, and Good Foods, in his book. You will be surprised to see mashed potatoes, chips, fries, and white bread on the Bad Foods list. You will also see quite a few pastas listed on the Good foods.

Avoiding the bad foods is a big step in not getting adult diabetes.

The Australians led the study that analyzed over 700 foods and their impact on your body for causing diabetes. Charlie has listed over 100 of those that the average American will be eating. We have unknowingly been eating some of the "Bad Foods."

In spite of the Bad and Good Foods listings, Charlie assumes that many of us will eat some bad foods unknowingly. Because of this, there is a list in the book, of what vitamins, minerals, and herbs you need to take to be able to counterattack the diabetes. The best prevention program is to take many of these, at smaller dosages. You can concentrate on those listed as Essential and Very Important. Then you can add from the Important Vitamins.

Also, there are vitamins, you may want to take because they are generally beneficial to your body. No sense upgrading one aspect of your body and neglecting all others.

There is a 8 week, step by step, Fighting Diabetes Program in the book. To achieve the best results follow the program as stated. Some of you may be used to taking multi-vitamins, and feel that they are similar to those recommended in the program. Multi-vitamins are not usually strong enough, that is, contain the best dosage. A month's supply in a bottle has at least 30 capsules. There are generally about 14 different vitamins in each capsule. Therefore, in order to fit 30 days of capsules into a bottle, the dosage of any one vitamin is very small crammed in each capsule with the 13 others. Pass your multi's on to someone who doesn't need your dosages to fight diabetes.

The other very important thing to be doing is testing your glucose level. This can be once or twice a week. Make the purchase of a test kit! It could be one of the most important purchases you will ever make. You don't know that you could be one of the 6 million undetected diabetics. Elsewhere in this ring of mini-sites, you will find the explanation of this type of diabetics. For now, accept the fact that you could be one. You may be a blood type that is usually not tested in a way to determine this.

If you tend to carry candy around with you, because you sometimes feel a little faint, disoriented, feeling the need for an immediate nap, you are a hypoglycemian.

If your glucose number that you received when you gave yourself the finger-prick test, is 89, it is not good, you most likely, are in trouble. You should be at 70.

You don't know if you already have diabetes! 25,000 Americans per week are being diagnosed with it. It is always a surprise. There are no symptoms to alert you. THEREFORE, be tested, or do it yourself, with a small, inexpensive test kit. You may be labeled a non-diabetic when you are really someone who needs to get on a treatment program before diabetes gets too big a headstart.

You will be given the opportunity further along in the ring of mini-sites to obtain knowledge that can help you. If you feel good about being successful in preventing adult diabetes, pass what you have learned on to others.
