Lowering Your Blood Sugar-Separating Fact From Fiction
Posted by: | CommentsPart of my initial consultation with a patient involves reviewing all the medications and supplements they’re on to lower their blood sugars. Some people literally bring in sacks of bottles of pills prescription and things they picked up at the health food store.
The majority of diabetics are taking the same medications that include a blood sugar lowering drug, a cholesterol lowering drug, a high blood pressure lowering drug, and sprinkle in some cinnamon, fish oils, and maybe a multivitamin and voila there ya have it. The real question is, is any of this lowering your blood sugar and reversing your diabetes. The answer is, prescription medication may be artificially lowering your blood sugar, but it is doing absolutely nothing to reverse your Diabetes. Thinking that your medication is controlling and curing your Diabetes is a deadly misconception.
Supplements and multivitamins are inherently good, but to know specifically what your body needs to reverse your Diabetes must be based on factual evidence-based testing. Each person’s body is different. Each person’s cause for their Diabetes is different. Each person’s treatment is customized to their specific need. This individual approach is what allows me to help a patient experience results quickly and efficiently with long lasting results.

Why Doesn’t My Medical Doctor Know About Your Treatment?
Posted by: | CommentsThis is a common question I get all the time that I’d like to talk about today.
What I do is called Functional Medicine. Functional medicine addresses how well your body may or may not be functioning and supports function of that organ, gland, chemical pathway, etc. Once function is restored…then health is restored.
The current Western Medicine approach to disease is based on treating symptoms….you have high cholesterol, well then take this drug to lower the cholesterol…you have high blood pressure, then here’s the drug for lowering high blood pressure…you get the idea. Western Medicine does not treat what is CAUSING the high cholesterol or what is CAUSING the high blood pressure…you see the difference? So, in effect someone’s disease whether it be Type 2 Diabetes or any other chronic disease that is killing millions of Americans…the CAUSE of that disease is not addressed.
There are some forward thinking Medical Doctors who do practice Functional Medicine. As the chronic diseases become more and more common in our society, Functional Medicine will become more and more popular as the current Medical Model fails in restoring health.
So you have to ask yourself….do you want your problem covered up? Or do you want the underlying CAUSE of the problem to be fixed. In my mind, the answer is easy. You DO have a choice when it comes to your health.
