  • This is no miracle and no cure darn you. Why do you keep saying that? It is a serious diet adjustment. Btw, only brainwashed people overuse the term miracle cure. I am only talking about FOOD. If you spent half the energy you have been using to disbelieve there is a natural treatment for healing the pancreas that isn't a drug but a powerful food that can heal your pancreas, you would be on your way to feeling like I do now. Only a child says it won't work without trying it. Are you a child? What do you have to lose? It's just food! I just want to help. I wouldn't normally endure such extreme skepticism that I have experienced here on Juvenation, but I truly want to help even just one person feel the way I do. Whoever that person is will also have to endure extreme skepticism on Juvenation when he or she shares their success story, too. Check it out: NoMoreVitamins.com

    Again, I'm just trying to help, however difficult that is for you to understand, that is all I want to do.

  • Reversed,

    I am not willing to go to your website. It's a policy of mine. I don't go to websites that look like they could harm my computer with viruses.

    But I am more than willing to listen to you make your case here, if you're willing to do so. I would genuinely love to hear you outline your method of reaching a cure. Please detail the regimen that must be followed as well as your understanding of the underlying science. Physiologically, what is occurring?

    I eagerly await your response.

  • I to am willing to listen, but not visit a website as well. Any information that you can give here would be wonderful. What types of foods are we talking about.

  • NoMoreVitamins.com is not my website. I am not affiliated with that company at all. I just eat their food and order off their website and the results are what I have been trying to express here for the last week. I doubt they even know I am championing their food. I found them through this article: thehealthfoodguru.com/the_real_cause_of_your_illness

    I started on Super YASAi, the ingredients are listed right there on their website and it's all plants, ONLY.

    I mix it with water in the morning and at night at bed time and that's it. You always absorb faster with powder; pills and tablets weaken digestion further I have learned. I was still taking drugs and doing my insulin shots every day while taking Super YASAi; now I am off insulin! Can you understand why I am still motivated to help someone here on Juvenation, even after having to listen to extreme skepticism, even after having to listen to some hate speech, too? If this happened to you, wouldn't you want to scream it off the roof top? Well I can't, so I came to Juvenation. I was truly shocked from the negative reaction I received. I thought people would be happy for me, but instead I have been called a scammer and even delusional. Well, getting off that insulin after many years certainly feels awesome and that's not delusional, I promise. Again, this not a cure and this not a miracle! This is a serious diet adjustment that I did and it took a little over 3 months for my doctor to diagnose me with Type 2, after having Type 1 for 8 years before. I understand the extreme skepticism on Juvenation. Everyone here I am sure has been dissapointed by different treatments for years and probably did try many, so after a while you just tell yourself, "nothing works and I will stick with drugs and shots". I am here to tell you that if I continued thinking that way, I would still be taking insulin today! The fact that it is just food was my deciding factor. It's much safer than any drug you are all already taking, that's for sure. I still take about 6 or 7 teaspons each day. I look forward to the day when my doctor tells me I no longer have Type 2, either! I know that will be soon. Though I am sure no one will believe that here on Juvenation, either.

  • Reversed,

    What drugs (beside insulin) are you talking about? You said "I was still taking drugs and doing my insulin shots." Then later you state, "so after a while you just tell yourself, 'nothing works and I will stick with drugs and shots'." I have never heard of Type 1 Diabetic being prescribed drugs. I have heard of Type 2s taking such drugs. So what drugs were you taking? I am not trying to be difficult. I am just trying to create some foundation for an informed, intelligent discussion.

    Elie

  • Hi Elie. I didn't say I was taking drugs for only Type 1, though many Type 1 Diabetics do take drugs for other health problems that are indirectly related to their pancreas. I was already taking several drugs over years and including after I was diagnosed. Aside from getting off my meds, I am off insulin, which is the main reason why I joined Juvenation in the first place, because this the biggest accomplishment in my life ever since I was diagnosed. It seems soo hard for people to believe and some diabetics ask me questions like I am doctor of some sort, which I most certainly am not, I am just one person who no longer has to take insulin and that's the only reason why I am here sharing my experience. All I did was go to NoMoreVitamins.com (you can send them an email and ask anything you want, just like I did.) It's just food, so it certainly isn't rocket science, yet this is the answer everyone wants to hear. It is so simple, so missed by nearly every diabetic out there who has given up on trying something new and is actually just food, very powerful food that is.

  • Reversed,

    I respect your eagerness to help people. But you have to understand that people are rational creatures. More often than not, people need evidence to believe something. The greater the claim, the greater the evidence needed to support it. So, while you are certainly right that many Type 1 diabetics do not wish to listen to your proposition because they have found it easier to believe that there is no cure, you must also remember that no one is going to listen seriously to someone who makes a seemingly preposterous claim with no evidence to back it up. It is simply unrealistic to believe that you can persuade anyone with your personal experience when (1) the entire medical establishment disagrees with you and (2) you are a stranger to the people with whom you're conversing. For god's sake, I'm skeptical when it comes to my own experiences. So, if you really want to present a strong case and help people see things your way, try creating an actual argument, some kind of theory that explains how this certain diet could possibly create the change you say it does.

  • If you would read the article link I first showed you, you would have your proof, but so far you don't believe me and don't want me to show you anything either, because you won't click on the article...that seems irrational to me. So, what else do you expect me to do, upload my experience to your mind? Here is the link of the article again just in case you have become even the slightest more reasonable and LET me prove it to you. Though in my opinion, truth doesn't need much proof. Read the article and let me know what you think. If you are afraid of a link, then go to yahoo and type in "theHealthFoodGuru.com" and on the home page click on the first article. Or just click below.

  • First off, I had asked you to iterate the science behind the approach. I'm not sure how that is irrational. You're posting this claim all over this site. Is it that unreasonable that I should expect that you'd have at least some understanding of the evidence.

    Speaking of evidence, I just visited the site. There is nothing there talking specifically about Type 1, though there are some sample articles dealing with other specific epidemics such as obesity. The only claims presented there that could even remotely apply to Type 1 were those made on the homepage concerning the origin of disease, namely the claim that all disease is the result of malnutrition. There is nothing scientific about the article. The statements cannot be considered evidence. They amount to nothing more than conspiracy theory.

    Now, I am not saying that you are wrong and that you did not get rid of your diabetes. I am only saying that the material on that website is not evidence and could not possibly persuade any reasonable person. It is very telling that you should say "truth doesn't need much proof." Unfortunately, for most people truth DOES need proof.

    If there were no negative consequences of my cessation of insulin injection, then of course I would try out this diet. But the reality is, I will go into DKA. So yeah, I need some reason to believe that such a diet would get rid of this disease before putting my life in jeopardy. If you think that is too much to ask, then we are in two completely different worlds.

  • I have visited the site, as well. There is only opinions and people stating their cases. there is no proof and no scientific facts to back up your claim. The FDA and the AMA have not verified any of these claims. I went on to research this product more and could only find sites that sell it. Maybe this product does work for some and maybe there are only a select few that this has helped, but most of us have had type 1 for a lot more than 7 or 8 years and have been told about this or that being the next cure. We are a patient group of individuals and need solid proof that this product does what a few say it does. I am not saying it's not possible, but I need proof.

  • It is obvious the only proof you will accept is what you feel yourself, so you should try it yourself, though I doubt you have the courage to do it, since there is never enough proof for the extremely skeptical. It doesn't hurt me if you don't want to eat healthy food that can actually heal your pancreas, it does of course, hurt you! You probably would ask for proof if I said 1+1=2. Clearly you did not understand what you were reading. And if you think you can depend on the FDA or the AMA healing you, you not only have a sick pancreas, but a very sick mind, too. This is not a drug, not some herbal mix or some special pancreas juice, this is healing food, get it? It's food! What on earth is there to be skeptical about...gees. If I said take this drug, I would understand, but to have as much skepticism about eating healthy food as you would trying a new drug, is completely ludicrous. I am looking for that one person who can recognize truth when he or she sees it...I guess you are not that one, yet. There must be someone here that can see the truth as clearly as me. I will keep trying, because all I want is to save another life, just like mine was saved. I have the right to express myself any way I see fit and to approach anyone I want to help, just as you do. In other words, if you don't like what I or anyone has to say, move on to someone else and leave me be. I went from Type 1 to Type 2 on the 3rd month of taking Super YASAi and I don't care if you don't believe me. All I care about is helping someone else.

  • You keep using the word 'skepticism.' It's not skepticism if there is no proof. Skepticism, by definition, requires some form of evidence. So, it doesn't make sense to refer to Keith or me as skeptics. Further, I would not ask for proof that 1 + 1 = 2, seeing as it can be known a priori, opposed to a posteriori. Lastly, the only reason I pursued talking to you in the first place is because I am open-minded and wanted to hear what you had to say. To tell me to move on and leave you be is strange. You made a claim about something having a direct impact on my life, so naturally I was intrigued and messaged you. Hopefully, all this sinks in for you at some point. I wish you the best.

  • Putting your life in jeopardy eating food? That's all Super YASAi is, just food. Well, I guess you should stop eating then, because oh no, that tomato and that broccoli is dangerous, oh no! You are the funniest one here so far. This isn't a diet, in fact I didn't change a single thing what I was already eating and drinking throughout the day, and I never stopped my insulin while eating Super YASAi, either. I got off my insulin only when my doctor diagnosed me with Type 2. What are you afraid of, eating food? That's all it is! Of course it's extremely healthy food. You decide for yourself, I don't have the energy to convince you why food is safer than that drug-like insulin you take daily; I thought it was a no brainer. And you hit on the exact reason why you still have diabetes, because you do what most people do and believe what most people believe and guess what, most people are sick! How's that logic for ye. Need proof? Look at stats, it's obvious. I just want to help someone, but if you don't want help, then leave me be, so I can help someone else, just like I have been helped.

  • Reversed,

    I have a couple questions for you.

    Were you still on insulin while you were taking Super YASAi? The reason I ask this is because it would be dangerous for a type 1 diabetic to stop taking insulin without any scientific evidence to back it up, because of the risk of going into DKA. And the disclaimer** on theHealthFoodGuru.com, leads me to believe that everything on the website is opinion and absolutely nothing is based on fact. However, if a type 1 diabetic continued to take insulin while his/her pancreas was being "healed", the he/she would suffer from dangerous, and possibly fatal, low blood glucose levels. THAT is why "eating food" could put one's life in jeopardy. If you understood anything about type 1 diabetes, you would know that.
