9:30 pm
i was told time after time after time there is no such thing as a diabetic diet, just whatever the standard diet is and you've been getting here and just keep giving are the most important thing is learning how to control with insulin. so when we were in the hospital, i remember them saying, eat whatever you want and goes for it. and actually hits 1st smell in the hospital was a breakfast burrito because i was like, that's a, that's no cards. so we don't have to go see for that, but then he wanted to cookies and after every meal, yeah, i think he's and we left the hospital with him being over 300 still my entire nursing career. this is how we've done. i knew that my patients at my job a whatever they want it, and we just gave them the sliding scale. i knew that their numbers were 2 or 300. i knew that that was the norm. that was the diabetic community for most medical doctors, including the nutrition education is at the very bottom of our list of things that were taught about in medical school. most doctors and most medical
9:31 pm
school educators are new maniacs. but everything new, the burning technology, new research. if you start talking about a dietary intervention, that's 250000 years old. everyone at the table size one glass of or because that's a new you can't get a patent on it. the same manufacturers are not interested in that at all, or no $1000000000.00 drugs they can be fashioned from talking about nutrition. so you can't make any money on a nutrition idea that hundreds of thousands of years old the governing bodies put these recommendations out and it forces positions to live within those guidelines for fear of reprisals. and if you don't follow the guidelines as a doctor, you can open yourself up to that occasion to. so there's a, there's a dual problem where not only the doctors never learn how to control blood
9:32 pm
sugars, they don't learn about proper nutrition. but even if they do, they're essentially forced to follow these incorrect guidelines. obviously incorrect guidelines in the recent position statement regarding management of diabetes for type one children. the american diabetes association failed to have a section dedicated to either food or diet, which are the main contributors to high blood sugar levels, which are responsible for diabetes complications. the lifestyle management section notes. there is no single ideal dietary distribution of calories and carbohydrates, fats, and protein. so for people with diabetes, i see it in these barrett groups. there's a lot of pair of groups up there that these people are, they're not even diabetic. and they're sitting there like given advice, right? and hey, you know what your kids numbers don't matter,
9:33 pm
doesn't matter. it's all good. so you can go in there. you can share your graph to your 400 everybody a patio in the back and say, hey, you know what? you know, thoughts and prayers go out the way i knew. when you're short and why kate's or your kidney fails. this thoughts and prayers don't mean anything about the don't you go online and facebook. so probably a lot of people on social media. you see them stuff like this. she won't have any energy unless you give them carbohydrates. your child will resent you for the rest of his life. what kind of mother are you to deprive your child of a childhood? he's not going to learn as well. he's not going to throw. you have to have sugar for your body to metabolize energy. and if they don't have the sugars, then they won't grow. that's what you're told over and over. i'm been researching for over a year, a low carbohydrate die. it's grossing shows i'm and are printed out over 60 articles that talk about proteins, not carbohydrate drugs,
9:34 pm
long bone growth in children's people have suggested to patients and their family that carbohydrates are required for growth totally falls down to where that believe comes from our body can produce all the glucose it means spring, gluco neo just the this model exist where be in a 2 days you know, very cupcakes or k to pizza and all that crap. right? but as you know, a t one young kid, if you're not feeding them protein and vegetables and keep in the blood sugar, which is never going to grow to his f. nighttime. is it particularly scary time for parents when they have a child with diabetes? because that child goes all they can go to
9:35 pm
that's what people are afraid of with young children. they fear that low blood sugar seizure coma. that's the scariest. it's a median. it happens overnight. so i think people think if you give your child carbohydrates, you're going to somehow help with that. but the truth is, it's the large dose of insulin, you're given your child that puts them at the most risk. the only reason a child has a low blood sugar is because there's too much insulin in their body. these very companies who are supposed to be helping us and you know, advocating for us. and during this break, the, they're, they're putting their name on stuff that basically causes complications. the, the, the families are given
9:36 pm
a conflict and it features, characters that children might say on morning cartoons. and each character is presenting a recipe to that child or to that mom. and these recipes are full of carbohydrates . and one of them that i recall was the recipe featuring a magical character that my, both of my sons love. and it was for pumpkin waffles. and i think just for the waffle, it was something around $44.00 carbohydrates, and that's without adding syrup. so if you give your child a waffle in some syrup for breakfast, that's like 80 some carbohydrates, a disaster ever seen the pink panther sash carb dining and how insulin works. we just kinda did what they told us, you know, base. i remember cd said she can eat whatever she wants, as long as she covers and highs are not a big deal as long as you catch them. so, you know, don't worry about spiking after meals with her,
9:37 pm
as long as you're not staying up there and you're catching them and bring them back down. and that was kind of when we were time, there's another publication given to us by of the american diabetes association. and it has a page where it's trying to do a little mess busting. and one of them is, you know, it's a mess that people with type one diabetes can't eat sugar. now, why? when they're given such a platform and such an ability to reach people. why would you not say at that moment it's better for people with type one diabetes to completely avoid sugar? it's just a, a wasted opportunity by a big governing body that cause a lot of power with these new families. that's basically the education that we got a crash course in carved county ratios. how this one was supposed to move the glucose into a cells. and it all had to do with his carbohydrate intake. we were told that he
9:38 pm
can eat, you know, cheeseburgers and fast food and that these things wouldn't change because he was type one diabetic. if i wanted to have a brownie and i wanted to sit down and actually calculate how many real carbs are in there, and how if it's white, sugar or brown sugar or oats, or a whole grain, whatever. you wanted to calculate all of that accurately based on grams and glycemic index, and how it's working in my body. and if i worked out and if i slept well, and if i'm in a good mood or a bad leader, and if i have insulin on board, go for it. most people don't have time. they just take a random ratio and so on. the card ratio that they are in the chronologist sets 6 or 8 months ago hasn't been tweak, hasn't been changed and they take a brownie and their blood sugar still goes high card counting as a method to manage. diabetes is flawed for many reasons. but one of the most obvious that i hope anyone can grass is that the ca allows food manufacturers to be
9:39 pm
off and their carbohydrate counts on their labels by plus or minus 20 percent. so even if you are the most avid curve counter and you waste food and you measure it, the fact that the label itself can be often account will set you up for, for failure. the it is estimated to over 415000000 people are living with diabetes all over the world today. in the united states and estimated $35000000.00 diabetic patients spend over $330000000000.00 per year on care making diabetes. the most expensive chronic disease and the con street global insulin sales are currently near $20000000000.00 per year. and costs are rising for
9:40 pm
a guy that adopted low carbohydrate diet. there was a multiple $1000000000.00. they found the corporations that were go bankrupt. corporations we're seeing as dire financial straits if they were not able to rise the backs of the banks anymore. industry once us buying their products. pharmaceutical companies once us buying their products as well. so when we're paying for carbohydrate food and we're paying for big amounts of insulin, those companies are thriving. this is every person with type one diabetes, reduce their amount of insulin. by 65 percent. someone is going to feel the sting of that. the very 1st time i went to cbs and bought novolog for $400.00. your heart is trying to figure out how in the world are you going to sustain this
9:41 pm
lifestyle to keep your child alive. this is what's needed for life, and it's insanely expensive. the i go to the refrigerator and i pull out the file of snelville locked tickets here. her morning dose. and i haven't had coffee yet and i was still sleepy. and i fumbled with the insulin and it shattered to the floor. and i cried. buckets of chairs, $400.05 saving medicine on the ground. or we could continue doing this. how can any family afford to keep their kid alive? no parents ever have to think about that. this is a 24 hour a day roller coaster. this isn't the kind of ride you take a break from this day and night and we were desperate for something else and
9:42 pm
hospitals. we started doing research. and on the internet doing a google search, we kept saying the same doctor bernstein, bernstein, and dr. bernstein. dr. burn sir, dr. burns burns beams. i read very seams book and really got my blood sugars under, under control to non diabetic levels. i remember the dates that i searched the symptoms because it was a couple of months after the animal i'm was dropped late. 1946 diagnosis diabetes. we had to use reusable syringes and the loose which we sterilized in boiling water . i have to go to the fleet assembly and the needles would get go. and we had to sharpen the needles we had upon this stone, and you run the needle on the pump, the stone and get rid of the hooks. you didn't know what your blood sugar level was
9:43 pm
. most of the time, it was either very low, very high, and my low blood sugar's, or a constant problem from the family. and it happened that i was working for a company that made clinical laboratory equipment. and i saw an ad for a sweet pound device that could be used in emergency rooms to distinguish unconscious, strong from unconscious diabetics by the blood sugar is it said, if i knew my blood sugars, i'm an engineer finding my blood sugars, i could do something about them, so i ordered a meter and started measuring my blood sugars. the take a fresh look around his life. kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion by tell us to do vision with no real opinions.
9:44 pm
fixtures, design to simplify will confuse really once a better wills, and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented to this, but can you see through their illusions, going underground can as it rains much over 5 to counter offensive stalls, western leaders have made a remarkable, rhetorical ticket. lighting says it has already lost the board. the secretary of state lincoln says russia has lost their narrative because a form of pseudo reality because making the claim ukraine is wendy, is untenable. in the early days had a very creative lunch. peanut butter, male and tune on date not thread. i found that the highest blood sugars were after lunch. so i said, well, if lunch is the biggest culprit,
9:45 pm
it must be because the carbohydrate. so i'm going to eliminate the bread and illuminate the peanut butter. and i'll just have the tune of fish and mail and the salad where i'm on the amount events when i took for lunch dropped dramatically. and the blood sugars after lunch became predict i decided at that point that i had to get this information out. and the doctors would bend over backwards. so the 1st thing i did was approach my own doctor who is present to the american diabetes association. and people come to me once a month for blood sugar. if they could measure it themselves, i'd have no patients, no one would come to see me. i wrote a, it was like a cookbook. step by step, what do you do to have normal blood sugars?
9:46 pm
if your type one diabetic. i submitted it to many made medical journals annual rejected the show, i decided i would go to medical school to get an m d f. and then therefore be able to get published. i was diagnosed with age 12 and life expectancy for a type one diabetic was 30 years and i'm 86 right now. exceptions i've made since you 1st just by to read the
9:47 pm
sufficing situation just made sense to me. you know, he was, he was the 1st diabetic that we know of that checked his own blood sugar. now every diabetic checks are on blood sugar. the he was able to realize by blood sugar is directly affected by the food. sorry. shouldn't be a big surprise. right. by reducing his carbon tag, he was able to significantly stabilize the swings in his blood sugar over time. and that, that made a lot of sense to us. and we said, well let's, let's give this a shot to the, i couldn't leave the production insolence instantaneously. you started to notice the blood sugars coming on down. and so here we cannot continue giving those large
9:48 pm
doses of insulin because we're a little card. i said go, i talked to dr. barm's they are is the 45 dollars the age limit and it keeps my biggest states. she was fighting. she has a straight news . obviously what we found is that we found some really amazing recipes and the foods were eating. now, on this low car restriction, are some of the richest and most delicious place that we've ever, even before. the
9:49 pm
clinical club ice cream, make little car pizza. we make little car cupcakes. there's low carb deserts. there's all these low carb foods that you can eat. you don't feel deprived, there's nothing that i can't eat. you just have to change the speed. the lay of the chart in our kitchen that has all the dinners that we have throughout the week. so whatever is on there, it's the dinner always consists of the protein salad, some type specials, the, [000:00:00;00] the whole family's health care. now that we've all changed our diet to adapt to. i
9:50 pm
remember if it's easier for me, i cook one meals and it's simple cooking. it's natural, it's easy to find a simple site to have some vegetables and throwing some meat on the ground salad and maybe a low carb treats. we have this moniker now that we're low car and mean i'm also low alcohol. i mean, i'm also low drugs. i mean there's, it's, it's kind of a mixed up name, i think, because we don't say, oh, i'm high car. nobody says that. it's a way that i think our disease dictates which is carbohydrate intolerance. the why is this not something i knew before? like i'm a dietician, i went to school for that and i've had diabetes for you know, 20 plus years. yeah. i've never heard of this in my life. i decided to give it a shot. my in so it needs to have my blood sugars, a like,
9:51 pm
rarely, over 120 anymore. changing my died to a little hard diet, made my blood sugars so much easier to control. i wasn't needing to count as high, you know, as taking these lower doses of insulin is much, much lower doses of insulin. the i'm on your for now. you know, eating this way, low clark and you know, very happy to say that give you a disease, going the meds that they were given me for that no more not even needed for my end . no neuropathies hearts in great shape. i saw this is how it used to be and now this is how it is being a type one diabetic doesn't really define who i am at all i've gotten so good at and managing myself over these last couple of years. that isn't really a problem at all for me at this point to mount a party. all you to hammer without
9:52 pm
a bon known cares if i, you know, i pizza without the, the cross underneath and it's, it's not a big deal. 10 years ago when i started eating low car, it was really tough to get low car portions at dinner or, you know, pulled the fries, give me broccoli instead. now it's like very, very common restaurants. understand stores have low car products. it's much, much easier. the we cake, but we make a little curve cake. so what did we make for your birthday? my mud pipe. a low carmine pile the for breakfast, just about every day we are bacon and eggs we saw to them and rich butter. this is not a brooklyn issue. this is a wesley family issue with ease me eating. she has to be an example for your time.
9:53 pm
the in 2018 harvard university, let a team of doctors and scientists to study the low carbohydrate diet and its effect on type one diabetic. the findings were unprecedented. the very low carbohydrate diet resulted in non diabetic blood sugar levels, fewer hypoglycemic events. and that's the risk of hospitalization in a marked improvement on mental health. the instead of just anecdotal evidence, there is now a collection of scientific data that proves part of doctor bern schemes, diabetes solution, the fuel cards. it was fewer complication. we know what we're doing on
9:54 pm
a daily flush and arranges in the ninety's sometimes in the eighty's. the reward is that isn't on the kid. she doesn't feel as i've been is nearly as much as we do as as pants. and for as long as i can do it, i want to make sure that this happens we would not have complications, normal issues where life back and that's exactly what we do the
9:58 pm
a. ready a, a a the by the middle of the 20th century, the portuguese colonial empire was in an acute crisis. a particularly 10 situation had developed in mozambique the people of this country were put in a humiliating position, income inequality ramp, and illiteracy. this respect by the portuguese for the local traditions led to
9:59 pm
a mass unrest. in 1964, the liberation front of mozambie for a limo began its armed struggle for freedom. the regular army was not easy to resist, but the guerrillas inflicted considerable damage on the invaders through the fighters against the colonial regime were supported by the soviet union and china. whereas the united states and great britain took the side of the invaders, the board to gaze responded to the guerrillas attacks with cruel counter insurgency . however, 3 limos, 10 year courageous struggle was a success after the overthrow of the fascist regime in portugal in 1974, the new authorities surrendered. a year later, lisbon fully recognized the independence of mozambie, but the victory had been gained at a high price during the war,
