I've been in patent denial and deliberate avoidance on the same thing.
If it's type 2 diabetes, you CAN treat it without drugs that will damage your pancreas and make you develop full-blown insulin dependent diabetes within 15 years of starting them. Further, the dangers of hyper-elevated insulin levels has not been given much in the way of analysis, because it would be politically challenging since insulin is the 'only' way to manage diabetes.
Well, I can tell you that Penny died of a cancer driven by estrogen, but caused in the first place by cellular receptor damage from elevated insulin levels, and that that it was completely eradicated from her body, only to return more aggressively, shortly after her insulin dosage was increased. Being male, we're unlikely to get endometrial cancer, just as females are unlikely to get prostate cancer (and there's some jokes about that) but I'd like to know what other cells can go rogue with just a little myelinization on the growth-limiting receptors.
Yeah, be pissy, but blame your ancestors, and a sedentary lifestyle; I am completely aware that if I start losing fat and adding (or at least using) muscle tissue, that the insulin resistance gets better, and my blood sugar drops to 'controlled' levels (80-150).
So, moving... yeah. Physically moving. That's what it'll take.
