As the years go by and the body ages just a few more years, those who were early on hypogycemic, will have their cells become less and less willing to take in the glucose. At first the blood glucose level is still, being brought down to normal after meals, but it is taking longer and longer. Eventually this unwillingness of the cells to take up the insulin/glucose combination leads to higher and higher blood glucose levels. Whereas they used to have low blood sugar, now they have high blood sugar. Why is this happening? It is because the “simple” carbohydrate foods which make up such a large part of the diet, are also devoid of the important nutrients, the vitamins, minerals and amino acids which are required to transport the glucose into the cell, into and then through the mitochondria. The co-factor minerals of chromium and vanadium as well as lipoic acid, riboflavin and niacinamide are in short supply. Finally, the lack of these nutrients leads to the day when the insulin/ glucose complex can no longer muster up the important cofactors that allow it to gain entry into the cell. Now the blood fills with both glucose and the ineffective insulin. When this occurs, the level of glucose in the blood begins to rise above normal limits for longer and longer periods of time. If this whole process is not stopped and reversed by halting the excess use of “simple” carbohydrates, the individual will become what is known as a Type II or Adult Onset Diabetic. Always remember, a high “simple” carbohydrate diet is the ONLY cause of this type of diabetes. Because of today’s excessive use of “simple” carbohydrates, Adult Onset Diabetes now makes up over 90% of all diabetics in the advanced nations of the world. Currently there are over 17 million people diagnosed as diabetics in the United States, with over 15 million of these being due to “simple” carbohydrate diet induced Adult Onset Diabetes. It is increasing at an alarming rate that will double the number of people afflicted with this condition every 15 years. It is now the fastest growing disease in America. It is the 7th leading cause of death in the United States, and the statistics are no better in other major advanced nations also pursuing a “simple” carbohydrate diet. What used to be an old peoples condition is now afflicting more and more young people, even people in their early twenties.
