People with diabetes account for a staggering 40 percent of those who have died from COVID-19 in the US, according to the American Diabetes Association
...
the risk of hospitalization and death related to COVID being six to 12 times higher for people with diabetes
...
Alarmingly, the ADA has also said that cases of type 2 diabetes have almost doubled in children since the pandemic.

That’s the worst. Look up Aspartame poisoning.
Hmmm. I’ve never heard that before. My Hgb and Hct were low for a while several years ago. I had type two back then, too. I know they’re not the same as iron levels, but low H&H can accompany low iron levels...
Sucralose evidently can. I am consuming aspartame.
One study found that protein produced a significant insulin response, while aspartame had no effect on insulin levels. Another also found that aspartame had no effect on the insulin response in humans, whether alone or combined with carbohydrates. Another earlier study (full PDF) examined the effects of aspartame on prolactin, cortisol, growth hormone, insulin, and blood glucose levels and found it had none. The authors used the same amount of aspartame you’d find in a standard artificially-sweetened drink but were unable to record any significant hormonal alterations. A study of forty-eight healthy volunteers found no evidence that aspartame has an effect on insulin levels.
Refer to #64. Ignore “research” that uses megaton blasts of aspartame or anything else.
There is a lot of information about it. Bloodletting improves insulin sensitivy in people with unnecessary iron.
Blood ferritin is a measure of stored iron. If ferritin is less than 70 ng/ml, the person has an iron deficiency. The normal range goes over 300 ng/ml, but those with a level of 140 ng/ml have higher triglycerides (insulin reduces triglycerides) than those with 70 ng/ml.
I haven’t had that checked, but my triglycerides are always perfect.
Just like before Covid when influenza, common cold and viral pneumonia killed most diabetics?
I’m sure your Dr. Told you to shed a few 100 lbs when you were diagnosed. Don’t blame me, I didn’t stuff your face for the last (fill in the blank) years.
Hopefully, you’re not the fat, unhealthy bastard I’m picturing...remarks of yours which stemmed from comment stating T2 is a heredity trait.
Maybe Biteme made the cost of insulin so high that people chose to skip doses?

We knew this....but, of course, they’re just now admitting it.
Dr. Zelenko says if you have taken the jab, you have put yourself back into a high risk category. He says you should be on a prophylactic protocol because you absolutely do not want to get COVID & the jab does not provide “sterilizing immunity”, so you can get COVID, despite the jab.
So here is the interview where Dr. Z talks about this with Dr. Mercola (who has just been named misinformation enemy #1 by the Biden Regime). I don’t agree with Mercola on everything (neither does Zelenko, like on ‘nebulized peroxide’), but he’s very good on COVID issues.

Zelenko Covid-19 Prophylaxis Protocol

Some diabetics are treated with ACE inhibitors that have been shown to increase ACE2 expression — fertile ground for SARS.
If T2 was entirely hereditary, it wouldn’t be reversible through through behavioral changes in diet and exercise.
That’s why it’s called a lifestyle disease.
All sweeteners induce a cephalic insulin response. It may be smaller, but it’s enough to contribute to T2 or weight loss issues in some.
I’m not in disagreement that behavior directly affects the T2 symptoms. And I’m ambivalent about the lifestyle designation. But the T2 trait is nonetheless hereditary.
All that said, there are plenty of obese individuals that don’t have diabetes.
Does that include Stevia?
Depending on your health and goals, you may find the best fasting period for you is different from that of someone else.
Dr. Jason Fung has an excellent book on fasting that can safely guide you into fasting for improving your health. The Complete Guide to Intermittent Fasting.

Okay — thanks!
ALL sweeteners. The cephalic insulin response is a reaction to taste registering on taste buds. Things that are intensely sweet may cause a larger cephalic response because the brain is expecting a buttload of carbs based on the sweetness. It may then cause hunger and cravings because the body didn’t receive the expected carbs
This is why diet drinks sweetened with aspartame is a wash, because it’s 200 times sweeter than sugar and taste buds are tasting at the molecular level.
Stevia and Erythritol are considered to have the best profiles, but they are also newer and have the least research. Stevia was recently implicated in contributing to gut microbial imbalance same as the other low calorie sweeteners.
Sucks, but there it is.
