The side effects of excessive insulin are blindness, neuropathy, deafness, and loss of general mobility.
proper diet cuts the need for insulin to about 1/4 of what is normally used by those on the suicide diet that the medical establishment pushes.
Type I diabetes is where the patient is UNABLE to make ANY insulin.
You are discussing type II, where diet does help.
When my husband follows a low carb/no carb diet he wastes away, losing so much weight that people think he has cancer.
The side effects of excessive insulin is the bodies loss of insulin sensitivity. IOW’s, when the body looses it’s sensitivity to insulin it looses its’ ability to control insulin. Yes, many in the medical field believe it doesn’t matter how much carbohydrate a diabetic takes in because they will just increase the insulin intake to counter it. Studies are now showing us the increase in insulin causes serious damage to the excretory system, specifically the kidneys.
There is only one study I know of that shows the diet can affect a Type I. It is not widely known and I don’t think that is what you are referring to.
Again, I think you may be confusing Type I and Type II
I thought it was excess sugar that caused the nerve damage and retinopathy, not excess insulin?
I’ve often thought an Atkins-type diet would suit type I diabetics best but the medical establishment doesn’t like that for anyone.
