Type 2 Diabetes Can Now be treated by Raw Vegan Diet


Millions of Americans are now suffering from diabetes. Severe cases are treated with insulin and the others are treated by medication. Bay Area group is now promoting a healthier solution which they called, raw vegan diet. Reggie Bass acclaim his raw vegan diet that helps him reverse the symptoms of diabetes and now he wants to spread the great news to others and do the same.

Bass said that the project is very unique in a way that it does offer a holistic approach to folks who want to have a change in lifestyle. Bass together with the team of Michael Bedar to create a documentary that the Bedar first helped produce in Arizona. On the project, they followed six diabetics who had agreed to switch their diet for one month. Beddar said that the participants eat 100 percent live foods like vegetables, seed vegetables, sprouts seeds, nuts and low glycemic fruit. All of the food is uncooked.

The title of the film is Simply Raw that documented that improvement like decreasing the levels of blood sugar. According to Bedar, blood sugar is the measure of the swings of the symptoms of diabetes, would be decreasing while they were coming off the insulin just by intake of super nutrient-dense, high-mineral, alkalizing, high nutrient density food.

At the present, the team is drafting diabetics in Oakland and other parts of the East Bay, hoping that replicating the results locally will help endorse a raw vegan diet as an option for diabetes. Doctors ABC7 spoke with were helpful of the project’s goals, but some advised concern in describing the results as a cure for the disease.

“I am very cautious about using the ‘cured’ word for my diabetic patients,” California Pacific Medical Center diabetes specialist Dr. Karen Earle said. “I think diet and exercise is a great treatment for diabetes and if someone is successfully managing their diabetes with diet, I consider that person a diet and exercise-controlled diabetic and the reason I do that is if they stop the diet, if they gain the weight back, the diabetes is very likely going to return.” http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/health&id=8179562

In order to help the subjects do well, Bass and other supporters from the vegan movement plan to lend a hand train them to organize meals. The group is also employing a network of volunteers to help with grocery shopping as well as emotional support, all in an attempt to change both diet and culture.
