Type 1 Diabetes Update

[@juliehay]

thankyou sooo very much, I am a 72 year old female who has recently, through the serious medical emergency of diabetic ketoacidosis, been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, just 10 weeks ago to be precise. To realise that my mortality was so very close, just a couple of days away, and the critical seriousness of the situation was difficult, and the reaction by some people was also very difficult. It was such a shock, and at my age, the endocrinologist and educators were taken aback by my late age onset. The psychological effect has been difficult as well, self blame, and yet I hadn't changed anything in my life to bring this on. So apart from beginning insulin injections 4 times a day and eating a little more carbohydrates I immersed myself in all the literature I could find online and have spent weeks reading and re reading, making notes so that I would absorb all the information properly, at my age this is important for me to do. But the thing I have been struggling with is the why, and the how. There has been so much to take in. So, today I decided to come to youtube and see what I could find, I had previously watched a couple of videos about the actual process of ketoacidosis, and some personal stories from patients. But today I found you Maureen and this has to be the best lecture on the subject and includes the information I so desperately wanted, and it has lifted my spirits and has been a GREAT relief. None of it was my fault, I did not do this to myself. I have Northern European Heritage, both my grandparents on my Mother's side were Scandinavian ie Swedish and Danish, I also have a related autoimmune disorder hypothyroidism. Anyway, thankyou ever so much for all your work and all the information in this video, you have no idea what this means to me and how relieved I am. Thankyou thankyou thankyou Maureen.

This woman is a born educator. Her grasp of the subject is palpable and her explanations are pellucid. One of the best lectures I have ever “attended” on any subject. Thanks, Much appreciated

I'm TD1 newly diagnosed 3 weeks ago. This lecture is the best so far of all I have consumed on the subject. Maureen is a born educator! I was given the Libre 2 right away and can say it is the best tool ever to help me find the right "recipe" for keeping my levels in the zone.

Good information. I took exception to one statement. Eating sugar is ok. I think you said, The idea that we shouldn’t eat sugar is archaic. Maybe you meant for type 1 only. Regardless, my concern is that teaching folks that we should be lowering carbs for nearly all individuals with type 1 and type 2 needs to be included. There is a whole community showing the benefits of lowering the need for insulin and that too much insulin can become a problem and makes monitoring, regulating, more difficult. Thank you for sharing all the science!

[@aprilr1064]

Interesting side note, My T1D son, diagnosed at 4 years old is a picky eater. One summer 2 years ago, when he was 6 years old decided on his own that he no longer wanted to eat animals. He was the first in the family to do so. The interesting fact is that during this summer of eating about 80% fruit we had to lower his insulin intake many times, both fast acting and long acting. In fact, there were many times that no fast acting was needed. There is something an upcoming researcher might wanna check out.

[@MyAccount-ns3eb]

This is nonsense. He probably just injected too much background insulin and only ate low carb fruits

This was so fascinating, thank you for posting it. As a T1 diabetic I can confirm that the Libre flash monitoring system is amazing and has made a huge difference in my control and understanding of how food, insulin and other factors influence my glucose levels, the amount of information it can give me is astounding and far better than any amount of finger prick tests. I just wish I could afford to use it more often, as it is now I can only afford to use one sensor every 3 months or so.

Hi Mike!! I'm sharing this everywhere I can! See below: Diabetes type 1 and 2 can be cured. So Say the experts. * 2 Canadian Doctors that work at 'Sick Kids' hospital are neuro scientists. They have discovered before 2006 that concentrated capsaicin from Chilies injected into pancreatic organs of rats with diabetes type 1, had their diabetes REVERSED within 24 hours. You can google 'Dr Michael Dosch and Capsaicin'. In 2006 they 'carefully' made known to the public that they were totally amazed at what they had found! One single high dose of Capsaicin awakened or activated the Pancreatic nervous system and it started producing Insulin AGAIN. Dr Dosch didn't elaborate..... I wrote to him and still waiting for his reply.... * In the Philippines around 5 years ago, Dr. Jaime Dy-Liacco, Doctor of Metabolic Medicine, an 82 year old, told the public (free of charge) that Chilies and Sea salt mixed together in high dose can reverse Diabetes. He explains that Diabetes can be reversed when you fix the mineral deficiencies such as Zn, Chromium, Vanadium, Manganese, Germanium, and copper. * If you google these trace minerals separately and look at PUBMED scientific research papers you'll see lots of evidence proving that these trace minerals are Crucial for Glucose tolerance, enzymatic reactions and the body's hormonal system. * Different people might have different deficiencies. Even Lithium plays a crucial role in glucose metabolism, and there are others like Mg etc etc... * Putting it all together, this is what you can do: Take about 300g of Red spicy chilli. Cut into small pieces and put it in a sterilised GLASS jar. Cover with 20% Alcoholic Rice wine. The wine will Extract the Spicy Capsaicim. Add about 5 Table Spoons of UNREFINED ORGANIC SEA SALT (which contains about 80 + natural minerals with trace minerals that are really hard to find in today's diet and drinking water. Cover and Place in warm place. In about 7 days time, you can consume use 1 table spoon of this liquid several times a day with a little food and water. I'd do this for about about 7-14 days and repeat the recipe if necessary. Monitor your glucose level after the 1st 24 hours and every day afterwards. In addition to this I will Make a green leafy Smoothie with 2 Table Spoons of Assorted Seeds, like Pumpkin seeds (high in ZN and Mg), Sunflower, seeds, Flax seeds, Sesame seeds, Poppy seeds (high in Chromium) and Fennel Seeds, with a couple of bananas for taste. Take this at least 2ce daily. * The 1st recipe will activate your Pancreatic Nerves. And the Sea SALT will Supply Missing TRace elements to restore Pancreatic Cellular Function. * The 2nd recipe will help Supplement additional NATURAL concentrated trace minerals to your daily diet. * Do NOT TAKE artificial Supplements. It can be dangerous and upset the delicate Homeostatic Mineral Balance and make your condition worse. Eat a diet hight in Whole unrefined Plant-Based Foods, with plenty of Spices and Herbs for additional minerals. Avoid Milk, Wheat, Soy, Peanuts and unrefined processed foods and sugars that serve as ANTI-Nutrients and block your body's ability to absorb vitamins and minerals. Stop and reduce all forms of medications and drugs that interfere with Mineral absorption. Look for natural alternatives and home remedies. Supplement with 3g Sodium Ascorbate (VitC) every 4-6 hours , and 5 g of Mg Chloride every 6 hours. This will drastically reduce Intra-Cellular Inflammation and allow Pancreatic Cells to regenerate Faster. If you experience loose bowels, this will be normal, but if it continues after 3 days or so, reduce the dosage of VIT C and Mg. Get 15 min of Direct Sunlight skin (arms and legs) exposure 3-4 times a week. This will raise your blood levels of Vit D which will strengthen your immune system. Bless you!!! Get well!

I don't understand the logic of my diagnosis as when I was first diagnosed I was told I would not need insulin for 15 years as my gad antibody count was extremely low. However I needed it within a few weeks as my blood sugars were going high in the twenties. I don't have insulin resistance so what was the issue?

[@southparkundersecretwisdom3230]

beta cells destroyed so antibodies no longer there... then your blood started going high

[@betsycambareri5775]

What brought you to being diagnosed? Did you have symptoms? My anti-GAD antibodies were 15 a year ago and my RN at the time didn't discuss with me the implications, so I just went on my way with the knowledge to reduce carbs and avoid processed carbs. I had slightly elevated A1c, 5.7. Recently I started to get serious about blood sugar because I have high cholesterol and was learning about inflammation's role in arterial disease, and insulin resistance is profoundly involved. My fasting glucose still resides in the 90's but sometimes at the higher end of the 90's so I thought that had to be significant. I am going to get new labs done very shortly to see where my Anti-GAD and A1c are at.

[@craighorner4607]

Living in California is not possible. The government there is so hostile towards type 1 diabetics that I would never consider moving there. The only reason I'm still in Illinois, also a state that is very hostile towards type 1 diabetics, is because my parents are still alive

[@craighorner4607]

When I talk with people about what the most difficult aspect of type 1 diabetes is, I tell them it's how other people treat me because of type 1 diabetes. The National Transportation Safety Administration would be an example of that treatment where I am condemned for having type 1. These types of people are why life sucks, especially as a type 1 diabetic. Unfortunately these evil people are in charge and take pleasure in harassing people that have physical illnesses. Nevermind the real dangers on the road such as people who follow too closely and pass unsafely

Dartmouth Medical School made a remarkable discovery on the 1940s. In brief, the dye used to prepare the microscope slides per AMA protocols was challenged. The results in dye substitutions uncovered Parasitic larvae in the tissue samples. Just several years ago l submitted this question to my Clinical Doctor who shared his clinical study's. He was astounded that I made the correlation and claimed a staggering 85% of his patients had a type 16 neematode. The immune system was activated by the parasitic infection and disrupting the beta cell function. Any chance the medical journal reference number could be identified?

[@southparkundersecretwisdom3230]

@@alexandrevega4782 i personally think Gluten combined with dairy is the cause of type 1 diabetes and probably other endocrine autoimmune diseases as well.... if these individuals went gluten and dairy free since being an fetus in the mother, guaranteed with 95% confidence , incidence of autoimmunity would be very low... A population is consuming gluten and dairy and then yeah, 1% develop autoimmune damage to their beta cells because Type 1 diabetes has occured significanctly, in every country that is atleast developed or in the process of being developed. And at increasing rates... What do they have in common? They consume wheat, dairy and there's an increase of electrification. These people were intolerant to Gluten, not exactly Coeliac Disease, but rather gluten sensitivity East Asians consume little gluten and dairy , ergo, they have less cases of T1 or other autoimmunities, but they still have cases of autoimmunity because they eat lots of noodles (gluten) and soy sauce (gluten) and probably drink milk every now and then.... Gluten makes their gastrointestinal lining open up and milk proteins leak in an probably trigger an immune response to the beta cells. Electricity may amplify the immune system in some sorta way but dunno for sure... Saying Coaxil virus or some sort of parasite causes type 1 diabetes? well it has to mean that this virus or parasite has to be present in all the locations of nations being developed..... It is like smoking. 2 individuals chain smoke the same pack of cigarettes every day. 1 get's lung cancer when he's 40, the other get's lung cancer when he's 70.... This is why we talk about genetic predisposition, and yeah, maybe some infection like a virus, parasite or bacteria could trigger it but the fact is everyone get's an infection and it's not in our control... also, accute stress can cause autoimmunity, like teenegers who are in a relationship and see their partner as "The one" where they are in the honeymoon phase in their relationship, may end up triggering the honeymoon phase of type 1 diabetes.... loss of a job, death of a loved one, child abuse, well known for autoimmunity causes. removing gluten and dairy, then get stressed out, that means you are probably alot safe from autoimmunity Type 1 diabetes is probably the same way, someone kept on consuming Gluten and dairy, they don't notice it until it's too late. Ofcourse, if you got Type 1 diabetes, simply stopping gluten and dairy won't cure you since your beta cells are already damaged or hard hit.... but maybe it's worth exploring to help manage diabetes better or prevent another autoimmune disorder. i think most of thyroid disorders and autoimmune adrenal crisis is probably caused the same way.. for illnesss like lupus, or other autoimmunities , i still have to investigate further, knowing their cause requires more researching.... . I base my theory on 2 theories. 1. Truth is hidden in plain sight 2. The argument with the least assumptions is often the one that is most correct. Now show me cases of someone going Gluten+Dairy Free since Day negative nine months and they still got type 1 diabetes
