The treatment of Type II diabetes is a massive, lucrative industry but terrible medicine. Finally, the myths, disinformation and malpractice that have underpinned and perpetrated the global pandemic of Type II are exposed and refuted on the basis of solid science and research.This book is your detailed, practical go-to reference and hands-on guide for successfully curing Type II diabetes without pills and needles. The author is a trained scientist, who has treated and beaten his own disease. He covers the relevant background, history and facts to teach you how you can treat and manage your Type II diabetes effectively. You'll understand the mechanics of nutrition and the science that are the keys to overall health and bringing your blood sugar under control, while you learn exactly why the prescribed treatments have made the situation worse for Type II diabetics. In addition, you'll uncover the disinformation and deliberate misrepresentation by powerful food industry and pharmaceutical lobby groups that set the stage for the global pandemic that is Type II diabetes.After reading this book, you will come away informed and prepared to take back control of your health with a method that can work for you in under 90 days! Written in a light style, with the science meticulously explained, this book shows:* Type I and Type II diabetes are very different diseases with only high blood glucose in common. Yet, since the 1950s, treatment for Type II diabetes has been based on the flawed assumption and medically unsound hypothesis that both could be treated in like fashion. This clear mistake, never revisited until now, has actually made the situation much worse for Type II diabetics.* Insulin resistance is not a 'malfunction' to be fixed. Instead, it's the way that cells defend themselves against toxicity from too much glucose uptake. However, conventional medicine has always sought to override these natural defenses with drugs--forcing cells to take up far too much glucose in order to clear it from the blood. Unfortunately, absent from this ill-informed and outdated 'logic' was how cells are supposed to metabolize all this excess glucose, and the very negative consequences for overall health.* Type II diabetes is an out-of-control 'feedback loop' which originally--in early human history--helped the body to pack on necessary fat when carbohydrates were seasonally plentiful. Today's artificial state of 'permanent supply' has interfered with the body's corrective phase; but, here, you will learn how--in 90 days--you can restore the correct balance and break the insulin resistance feedback loop by tapping into your body's own genetic programming. * You'll discover the myth that optimal treatment for Type II Diabetes entails reducing blood glucose with drugs, and learn why this approach actually worsens the risk of heart disease.* You'll understand why nearly everything we have been taught about a 'connection' between consumption of fat in the diet and heart disease risk is dead wrong. And, you'll learn the three ways that diabetes causes high blood pressure and how this can be reversed, including the unique challenges faced by diabetics.* You'll get an honest and practical handbook that works and all the author's tips, experiences, mistakes and lessons learned in curing himself in less than 90 days. * You'll discover how to enjoy the benefits of fasting, without going hungry. And, you'll find out ways to convert your favorite recipes into ones that won't harm your health!* You will have the necessary tools and information to prove to yourself that you can beat your own Type II diabetes!

One of the foremost researchers in human metabolism reveals surprising new science behind food and exercise. We burn 2,000 calories a day. And if we exercise and cut carbs, we'll lose more weight. Right? Wrong. In this paradigm-shifting book, Herman Pontzer reveals for the first time how human metabolism really works so that we can finally manage our weight and improve our health. Pontzer's groundbreaking studies with hunter-gatherer tribes show how exercise doesn't increase our metabolism. Instead, we burn calories within a very narrow range: nearly 3,000 calories per day, no matter our activity level. This was a brilliant evolutionary strategy to survive in times of famine. Now it seems to doom us to obesity. The good news is we can lose weight, but we need to cut calories. Refuting such weight-loss hype as paleo, keto, anti-gluten, anti-grain, and even vegan, Pontzer discusses how all diets succeed or fail: For shedding pounds, a calorie is a calorie. At the same time, we must exercise to keep our body systems and signals functioning optimally, even if it won't make us thinner. Hunter-gatherers like the Hadza move about five hours a day and remain remarkably healthy into old age. But elite athletes can push the body too far, burning calories faster than their bodies can take them in. It may be that the most spectacular athletic feats are the result not just of great training, but of an astonishingly efficient digestive system. Revealing, irreverent, and always entertaining, Pontzer has written a book that will change how you eat, move, and live.

The author of the four-million-copy bestselling Feeling Good offers 40+ simple, effective CBT-based techniques to overcome every conceivable kind of anxiety—without medication. “Few truly great books on psychotherapy have been published, and this is one of them.”—Albert Ellis, Ph.D., founder of the Albert Ellis Institute and bestselling author of A Guide to Rational Living We all know what it’s like to feel anxious, worried, or panicky.

I think this plane is going to crash!” Should Statements: “I shouldn’t be so anxious and insecure. Other people don’t feel this way.” Self-Blame: “What’s wrong with me? I’m such a loser!” Mental Filter: “Why can’t I get anything done? My life seems like one long procrastination.” Using techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on practical, solution-based methods for understanding and overcoming negative thoughts and emotions, When Panic Attacks gives you the ammunition to quickly defeat every conceivable kind of anxiety, such as chronic worrying, shyness, public speaking anxiety, test anxiety, and phobias, without lengthy therapy or prescription drugs. With forty fast-acting techniques that have been shown to be more effective than medications, When Panic Attacks is an indispensable handbook for anyone who’s worried sick and sick of worrying.
