Belly Fat Linked To Type-2 Diabetes
90% of type-2 diabetes cases develop after significant fat is gained in the omentum located in the abdomen. This creates insulin resistance effectively 'gumming-up' pores in body cells preventing sugar from being absorbed from the blood. As blood sugars rise the pancreas works harder by making more insulin. Years of stress and overwork causes the pancreas to fail prematurely leading to insulin fatigue and diabetes.

Thanks for the simplicity of this complex info! This is the first I’ve heard of “Insulin Fatigue” but it all makes sense now… Well at least- more sense than it did 5 minutes ago. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. Glad to help clarify the issue. Learn more about avoiding diabetes and reducing the risks associated with uncontrolled diabetes at my website.

One of the classic signs of posterior pituitary gland deficiency is a pot belly. All type 2 diabetics have some degree of posterior pituitary gland deficiency.

Posterior pituitary gland supplementation will also reduce blood sugar values in type 2 diabetics. A deficient posterior pituitary gland is the cause of the belly fat. This is a classic sign. Unfortunately posterior pituitary is seldom used in medicine. I have taken it for almost 40 years.

so ur saying that fat around the middle really causes type 2 diabetes?

Yes, abdominal fat in particular is linked to insulin resistance. It’s this resistance to the action of insulin that forces your pancreas to work harder to normalize sugar in the blood. An overworked pancreas leads to insulin fatigue. At this point not only has insulin lost its effectiveness, but the body is making less insulin. This is the primary course that leads to type-2 diabetes.

Thanks for making this video. I wonder why our doctor doesn’t stress lossing weight to get rid of this disease for my dad who have diabetes for over 10 years?

You’re not proving that ab fat CAUSES insulin resistance. You’re just observing that a lot of people have both at the same time. Do some slim persons with hardly any ab fat also have diabetes? Could it be that ab fat and diabetes are BOTH symptoms of too much carb? Please prove your point. I’m not trying to debate. I’m here to learn. And thanks for the video.

Because doctors make boatloads of money selling unneeded drugs and procedures. I know, I had a grandfather–a WWII veteran–die of diabetes. It is a horrible disease and they did nothing but prescribe pills and procedures to him, never once telling him to lose weight.

I’ve heard people tell me they have diabetes like it was somthing beyond any control in which they were soemhow “afflicated” with. Surely it couldn’t be they were ALL fat. And I suspect lazy with a poor diet. I’m sure that probably had nothing to do with it.

Yep, I defintely have metabolic syndrome, Let myself go a bit. I Stopped all junk and am exercising, scale does not want to budge. Even 5 years ago, if I would have done the same thing, pounds would have dropped quickly. Thick abdominal fat, high BP, high LDL, low HDL, prediabetic fasting glucose levels if I start eating too many carbs, just to name a few of the symptoms I have. No ones fault but my own. Carbs are very problematic for me, eat too many and I get constant painful hunger. Cheers!

Most likely, he knows that his little lecture will do no good.

Thank you.

My doctor a few days ago said my type 2 diabetes may now be cured, my sugar is normal; I lost 20 pounds, I have been working very hard at a new job. I think the strenuos activity plus the weight loss that came from it did the trick. But my veiws on diabetes were never in line with what doctors told me. EXCERCISE IS NESSESARY ALONG WITH WEIGHT LOSS. I did not completely avoid any kind of foods. I hope this helps.

It’s the High Fructose Corn Syrup (which is in virtually ALL processed food), that’s causing the diabetes. It’s in soda pop (not sugar), bread (including 100% whole wheat), cereals, cookies, puddings, sauces, etc. This is NOT “sugar”. It’s HFCS and in most of these products, it’s the #1 or 2 ingredient. This is NOT my opinion. It’s been scientifically proven. I was on the verge of type II diabetes and I reversed it, simply by cutting out ALL processed food, as well as GMOs. Wake up!

Visceral Fat (fat surrounding organs) has been linked to type 2 diabetes.
Not the subcutaneous fat.. the fat above your muscles.

The key thing we need to teach everyone healthdoc is to stay hydrated and slightly alkalined. The Body only needs minerals, essential fatty acids, and enzymes to function properly. Well that and of course plenty of water and to eat healthy. I think your video is great and we want to help as many people as we can. We are having 100% success rate with diabetes. Let me know if you would like to know more about this miracle satchet of ours that you simply add to your bottled water.
