The pH Miracle – A Revolutionary Diet Control
.
On my travels I meet people from a variety of countries who have access to different media networks, meaning I get exposure to different ways of thinking. I have been introduced to a fascinating book – The pH Miracle For Diabetes: The Revolutionary Lifestyle Plan for Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes in which Robert and Shelley Young claim to have created an alkaline diet that reduces the insulin requirements of both type 1 and type 2 diabetics and has even stopped the need of some type 1 individuals to inject at all.
Diabetes is becoming a global epidemic with an estimated 23 million sufferers in the U.S alone and worldwide numbers expected to triple in the next decade or so. There are therefore many people trying to help those who have daily battles with balancing their blood sugar levels and the treatment or diet control suggested by the Young’s seems to be getting results. Recently scientists have been able to create beta cells that produce insulin but they have been unable to stop the immune system attacking those cells. Dr Young is an internationally recognised nutritionist and microbiologist who has been researching the work of alternative researchers for over 40 years. He hypothesises that it is not actually the immune system that causes the destruction of the pancreatic beta cells but the excess of acidity in our diets and the fluids surrounding the pancreas that is the problem.
Their book offers the theory behind their hypothesis and recipes so you can try it. They focus on changing the fluids around the pancreas and think many of the problems associated can be reduced or reversed if these fluids become alkaline. I am sure that many of you out there (especially those in the medical profession) are thinking that sounds unlikely. Having studied genetics I can relate to your thoughts but apparently as soon as your diet is changed you get quick results so I’m willing to give it a go. Below there are a number of people speaking about their experiences on camera:

Peoples Testimonies
Nathan and Gabriel Romans – an interview with 2 parents who work in healthcare and their 2 young boys. They talk about the diagnosis and the families conversion to an alkaline diet which stopped their need for injecting insulin and caused one of the boys to start producing again.
Katrina Bastos – an 18 year old student who talks about her struggle to cope with diabetes until she converted to the pH miracle diet and within a week stopped needing to take insulin. She also talks about how the diet made her feel better and lose weight.
Brittany – a 24 year old woman talks about her 2 year struggle to cope with insulin management and her conversion to the diet which stopped her need for the fast-acting/slow-acting treatment. She now offers holistic counselling and gives advice on how diabetics can naturally treat their condition – click for her website
Chancellor – a 10 year old boy was diagnosed when he was 4 and treated himself with insulin for 6 years. He talks about how he doesn’t need to inject insulin anymore and how it also helped with his intestinal problems.

There are a number of interviews online with Robert Young giving the particulars about his research and there is plenty of information about the diet if you want to give it a go. Also useful to know is that it’s used by non-diabetics to increase general health and to help people shed those unwanted extra kilos. Robert Young is not alone in using alkaline water to treat diseases, hospitals in Japan have been using purified, electrically restructured hexagonal, ionized alkaline water known as Kangen water to treat a number of diseases and they have had positive results in diabetics. For more information about the health benefits you can get from drinking alkaline water the Designer Water website is a good place to start.
I myself sit here as a curious scientist and explorer who always used to think that if I didn’t eat any sugar or carbs I shouldn’t need insulin so I have bought Robert and his wife’s book and I am going to give it a whirl, no idea what will happen but i’ll let you know.

My Experiment with the diet

I started the diet and made a video-blog after the first 8 days, more to follow
