This super vitamin can send insulin levels plummeting, says Dr. John Whitcomb in an expert review of K2’s amazing promise on YouTube.

“This picture has opened up and we are just learning,” he says of the vitamin  critical to health but deficient almost universally.

Notably for diabetics, Whitcomb says if you take “young men and put them on K2 in a metabolic ward you can show that their production of insulin drops in half.”

He elaborates: “The lower your level of insulin, the less your fat cells are motivated to take up fat as calories. So you want a low level of insulin — you want to be producing less insulin.”

The longtime medical expert says K2 dropped his father’s blood sugar from 190 to 110-120 in three months.

Benfotiamine, a dietary supplement said to help protect diabetics from several problems including foot pain, is “snake oil,” says one researcher on www.news-medical.net —  a strong assertion just as strongly refuted in numerous comments from people who insist it has worked great for them.

Trace amounts of plastics that leach into our food and drink, from things like plastic wrap or beverage bottles, may contribute to diabetes, says Your Medical Detective, which suggests having blood tested for deficiencies of zinc and vitamin B-6. The author says plastic interferes with zinc metabolism, which hinders B-6 from fulfilling its crucial role in metabolizing sugars.

Men with comparatively higher levels of fish oil (or omega-3 fatty acids) in their blood have a 44 percent overall higher risk to develop prostate cancer, reports the U.S. Government.

A writer who smashed through her own disease with a nutritional battle ram eats a quarter pound of butter in a day because she wants to heal her body.  “Butter is good for you,” she says on Empowered Sustenance, adding that this time-honored dietary staple “does not make you fat,”  has significant health benefits, and wrongly has been linked to cholesterol-related heart disease.

A New York cardiologist wondered why he got a painful kidney stone, and the only risk factor he could find “was that I ate a lot of almonds,” he says on The Leftist Review. After further investigation, he asks if an almond industry group seems to recommend  limited daily consumption because this touted-as-healthy snack food — and ingredient in many other foods — might “even be causing thousands of us to form kidney stones and perhaps even worse, kidney failure?”

DHEA can “help you reduce insulin resistance,” says Suzanne Somers’ Sexy Forever, adding that the dietary supplement’s “insulin-regulating feature can make it especially valuable for people who have type-2 diabetes.”
