face a deadly epidemic of Diabetes and Obesity in our Country today. In
fact, one-third of our children will be Diabetic as adults.
Some
people blame obesity and Diabetes on genetics. While it is true that
some people have a genetic disposition to insulin resistance, the vast
majority of people suffer from these conditions due to poor diets,
stress and lack of activity. Type 1, or Juvenile Diabetes, is not
caused by diet or obesity. It occurs when the Pancreas loses its
ability to produce insulin. Type 1 is more severe than Type II, which
is characterized by insulin resistance in the cell membrane. Type II
diabetes may be controlled with diet changes and exercise. Cell
membranes throughout our body become brittle and less responsive to
insulin, because of diets high in refined sugars and toxic processed
fats (transhydrigenated and saturated fats). Specifically, cell
membranes "TOIL" -
becoming Toxic,
Oxidized, Inflamed and
Lacking in energy. Our "terrain" is then fertile ground for disease to
take root. Poor diets lack micronutrients necessary to maintain healthy
cell membranes, like antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients.
These diets also lead to poor detoxification, which adds to terrain
toiling. Toiling cell membranes also result in Pancreatic Dysfunction,
insulin secretion is compromised as well. As a consequence of the loss
of cell membrane flexibility, insulin levels go up in the blood in an
effort to break through this resistance. Higher insulin levels may
cause all kinds of problems including glucose build up in the blood
stream.
All
nutrients in the acai berry heal the metabolism in cells, thus
increasing the energy available for those cells to carry out their
function. The miconutrients also improve detoxification pathways, thus
eliminating xenobiotics that have been associated with
insulin
resistance. Heavy metals, air pollution, chemicals, pesticides,
radiation etc. are causing significant toiling in our cells.
Some
people worry that the elevation of blood sugar while consuming fruits
like acai berry is a sign that acai is not good for diabetics. This is
not correct. The problem with fructose is not in natural foods, but its
the "high fructose corn syrup" processed from corn and consumed in
exorbitant amounts my most people. Even High fructose corm syrup is not
a problem, unless it is more than 25 percent of total calories per day.
Furthermore, natural fruits are high in fiber, which mitigates any
adverse effects of fructose consumption by blunting the rate of
absorption of fructose from the intestines. Not eating fruits leads to
a lack of antioxidants that are essential to build and fuel cell
membranes.
Also, refraining from fruits can leave
people
dissatisfied and craving sugar, especially refined foods. And so they
succumb to the temptation of eating simple carbohydrates and processed
foods high in refined sugars. They would have been better off
satisfying their sweet tooth with fruits, like acai. If you are still
worried about sugar levels and the acai, consult your physicians. As
stated above, acai can help control your sugar levels in the blood.
But, NEVER stop taking any medication or insulin without proper
supervision.
