Hello everybody, I’m Herby and I am a pro-choice, civil-libertarian, nudist, Spiritual (and Secular) Humanist, Beatlemaniac, Pythonist (as in Monty), Marxist (Groucho, Chico, Harpo and sometimes Zeppo), Lennonist (see Beatlemaniac), Shakesperian and Whovian (Doctor who greatest sci-fi of all time).
I just recently started the raw food diet, although I have not yet reached the 100% raw which is my goal. This is the ONLY diet that has been able to bring down my sugar levels, although I am still high and insulin dependent. Any suggestions the group can give me to bring the levels down further would be appreciated.

Thanks for the advice. Bananas will be a tough give up, but once the sugar goes down I am convinced the raw diet will reverse diabetes.
Wow, thank you all so very much. I have a lot to think about and plan (first thing is to get some flax seeds).
Sounds good. When I get a juicer I will try it. I’ve been drinking a lot of green smoothies, although I am going to cut back on the high glycemic fruits like bananas for a while. Dates and rasins also spike my numbers. A little research on the glycemic content of fruits should help me.
HELLO NSRISING AND EVERYONE ;)
THERE IS A BOOK BY DR. N.W. WALKER, D.SC. BECOME YOUNGER,IS THE TITLE. GREAT INORMATION. PUBLISHED SINCE 1949. EVERYONE NEEDS TO BECOME MORE EDUCATED. THIS DR. WALKER WAS THE FOUNDER OF JUICING!! GOOD LUCK TO ALL ON RAW!
blindguru,
I’m not trying to be rude, but why are you posting on an explictly raw board if you are so anti-raw? Are you simply trying to ‘convert’ people to a non-raw lifestyle? This is hardly going to be your most receptive audience.
Thanks for the update, writeeternity. :) I was kind of confused about the whole situation.
I was saw the 30 days raw trailer and I was so amazed at how raw food cured diabetes in the people who stuck to the program. I think in 2 week they were off their insulin, and by the end they were cured. You could see how happy they were. They really struggled through the detox. At the end of the trailer the doctor was dumfounded. He was amazed at the results of his patient. If more doctors knew about the amazing cures real food grown from the ground (fruit, vegetables, herbs, nuts, seeds, ect.) had their would be a lot less sick people in the world. Drugs have so many side effects. It’s amazing how artifical sugars can spike the blood level but agave and other plant based sugars like stevia doesn’t. Here is the site the trailer is on…if you haven’t seen it before. It’s amazing…it really is. http://www.rawfor30days.com/rawfor30dayswmp.html
