Hi I am a 22 yr old just diagnosed type 1 diabetic. I am very greatful for all the good work you do. I want to follow Dr. Bernsteins Diabetes Soulution diet(30 grams carbs /day) but I think I am a mixed metabloic type. As I believe a low carb diet is the only way to have near perfect control with diabetes are mixed or carb types just out of luck?

You are in luck!! Major breaking news about this for type 1 diabetics that looks VERY hopeful.

 

This is only experimental work but this absolutely unexpected discovery that came out of nowhere showed that injecting the active ingredients in hot peppers, capsaicin, into the pancreas of diabetic mice helped them recover from the most devastating and troubling form of diabetes,  Type 1.  This is only 5% of diabetics, but the most challenging one as Type 2 diabetes is virtually 100% recoverable with natural methods f frequently described on this site(LINK).

 

This is all preliminary work though, but studies should be quick and there may be a product available in a few years.  And here’s the GOOD NEWS, this is a natural product so the likelihood of serious side effects is very small.

What do you feel is the best success for Type 1 diabetes as I have been diagnosed with this and have suffered it for more than 17 years. I use an insulin pump to try and regulate my sugars which has not been very successful. I have just purchased your new book total health-hopefully this will further give me some suggestions but anything else would be most helpful
Thanks
Lisa
