How To Reverse Type-2 #Diabetes @TEDtalks (#NoGPS #Grain #Potato #Sugar #Glucose #Fat #Carbohydrate #Protein #Diabetic #InsulinResistance)

First, let's review some common knowledge about Diabetes—it's a condition in which your body can't make the hormone Insulin that turns Sugar into Glucose (Blood Sugar) ... or maybe I'm getting those words mixed up; watch the video to clear that up.

If you have diabetes, it can cause nerve-damage and other problems that might lead you to needing amputations ...

It helps to know why we use the words we use for these matters.

The word “Diabetes” is built on ancient words that mean “Through ( |Dia-) + to Go, Walk, Step, |Come" (described by a Greek Physician as 'an |Excessive |Amount of |Urine'; now usually restricted to Diabete Mellitus—high amounts of #Sugar in the urine).

The word "Glucose" is built on ancient words that mean "Sweet ( |Gluco-) Wine" (as it was originally discovered in |Grape sugar).

The word “Protein” is built on ancient words that mean “the First |Quality" (as protein was originally thought to be an Essential for Life; Proto-, -ine).

The word “Fat” (not to be confused with 'Obese') is built on words that mean “to Swell" (Juice, |Sap, |Resin, Milk, Wealth, Abounding in Comfort, Prosperous).

The word “Obese” is built on ancient words that mean “Over ( |Ob-) + to |Eat." 

The word “Carbohydrate” is built on ancient words that mean “Carbon (Carbo-) + |Water, |Wet (Hydrate)." 

The word “Grain” is built on words that mean “Seed, |Small |Kernel" (a scent found in Corn, |Garner, |Granite, |Grenade, |Pomegranate).

The word “Potato” is built on ... itself (the original word–the Spanish patata—referred to a sweet potato grown in Haiti. The name spread from the sweet- (common) potatoes to the species we now think of as the standard potato—bastard- or Irish- or Virginia potatoes (though the origins of it are traceable to Bolivia or Peru).

The word “Sugar” is built on ancient words that mean “Grit, Gravel (|Pebble)" (Alexander the Great called it "a Honey without Bees").
