Beat & Reverse Type 2 Diabetes

Reverse Type 2 Diabetes with Superior Nutrition

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 15:25:00 +0000

Superior nutrition, in the form of a balanced nutritional model, can be used to help defeat and reverse your Type 2 diabetes. The Death to Diabetes wellness program uses such a model, that is referred to as the Super Meal Model.

The "Death to Diabetes" Super Meal Model is more than "a diet". It is part of a comprehensive 10-step wellness program that is designed to improve the health of people suffering with diabetes. This nutritional model is also designed to address high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, and chronic fatigue.

The "Death to Diabetes" Super Meal Model has many of the attributes of the Mediterranean Diet, Zone Diet, South Beach Diet, and Asian Diet -- with nutritional modifications to address the root causes of Type 2 diabetes.

For the science behind the Super Meal Model, read about nutritional science and the clinical studies that the author used to design the model.

The "Death to Diabetes" Super Meal Model is truly THE Diabetes Diet, because it is specifically designed to help control, beat, and reverse Type 2 diabetes -- by providing a more sustained level of energy and key nutrients that diabetics (and non-diabetics) are missing when they consume the more traditional grain-based, overly-processed, nutrient-poor or starchy meal.

The "Death to Diabetes" Super Meal Model has a very nutrient-dense protocol that provides nutrients that are key to the effectiveness of THE Diabetes Diet including: Omega-3 EFAs, carotenoids, antioxidants, chlorophyll, magnesium, potassium, chromium, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, fiber, water.

In addition, by avoiding the grain-based breakfast, diabetics and non-diabetics will not experience the mid-morning “crash” or craving for processed food/beverages. Over time, the "Death to Diabetes" Super Meal Model diet will support blood glucose stabilization, cell repair and the regulation of the body's production and utilization of insulin.

Super Meal Model Diet Attributes:

More frequent meals (4 to 6 times/day)
Smaller meals (400-500 calories)
Macro-nutrient Balance
(Super Carbs, Proteins, Fats, Liquids)
Key micronutrients, i.e. vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals)
High Fiber Content (30-35g/day)
Fermented Foods (3-5 times/week)
Raw Vegetables (50%-80%)
Some Raw Fruits
Nutritional Supplementation (Food-based)
Minimum/No HFCS, PHO, nitrates, artificial sweeteners, food additives
Minimum/No caffeine, alcohol, drugs

Key Point: This is not a low fat diet! Ironically, low fat diets helped to make us fat!

Super Carbohydrates include many bright, colorful and green, leafy vegetables, some dark, colorful fruits, and some specific organic whole grains (but, not wheat bread!).
Super Proteins include cold-water fish, nuts/seeds, fermented soy, organic dairy, lean animal meats (i.e. chicken, turkey, organic beef), wild animal meat (i.e. bison, ostrich, deer). Note: If you are concerned about the mercury in fish, eat smaller fish or take an Omega-3 supplement.
Super Fats include plant oils (but avoid clear vegetable oils or canola oil!), and the oil in nuts/seeds and cold-water fish.
Super Liquids include filtered water, raw vegetable juices; some raw fruit juices; specific teas; and, a couple of the organic bottled juices.

Refer to Chapters 6 and 7 of the Death to Diabetes book for a detailed list of all the super carbs, super proteins, super fats, and super liquids that support the Death to Diabetes Super Meal Model diet.

Start eating the Super Meals, including the Super Breakfast, the Super Lunch, and the Super Dinner, and watch your blood glucose level start to steadily come down!

Stick with the program and watch the pounds of fat melt off your body!

Note: Get the diabetes cookbook with hundreds of balanced meals and lots of mouth-watering recipes!

Author's Note:
Superior nutrition has a bigger impact on glucose tolerance and insulin resistance more so than any other wellness factor, including exercise.

My background in biochemistry and engineering, and my research into pathology, etiology, and epidemiology has helped me to understand diseases such as diabetes at the cellular level.

As a result, I am able to design nutritional protocols that help the body successfully fight diseases/maladies such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and chronic fatigue. Once you understand the science of disease and. the science of nutrition, it's a lot easier to design wellness solutions that will actually work.

Reverse Type 2 Diabetes with Cleanse/Detox Methods

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 15:23:00 +0000

Cleansing/detoxification is a set of normal biochemical processes performed by the body to prevent and fight disease on a continual basis and to keep the body as healthy as possible. This cleansing/detoxification is optimized when we eat healthy foods the majority of the time.

However, in our fast-paced world it can be difficult to find the time to prepare healthy meals, especially, given the easy availability and accessibility of convenience and fast foods. Unfortunately, our bodies pay a heavy toll for eating unhealthy convenience foods, fast foods, and processed foods.

To compound the problem, our bodies are also bombarded with chemicals and pollutants on a daily basis from the air, water and environment. Under this heavy barrage of toxins, the cells become sick and the human body eventually reaches a point where it is no longer capable of flushing toxins and acid waste on its own. As the toxins and acid waste accumulate in the cells, blood, tissues, and organs, they trigger an increase in inflammation, the formation of pathogenic bacteria, fungus and mold, and lead to a state of poisoning commonly referred to as toxicity.

Common symptoms of toxicity include headaches, fatigue, increased allergy symptoms, overall aches and pains (particularly joint pain), and digestive discomfort. These symptoms occur when the body has become so clogged with toxins that it can no longer perform necessary functions effectively.

Toxins are generally acquired in one of three ways: through things we ingest (such as foods, drinks, drugs, etc.); through external sources (such as the air we breath, radiation, environmental chemicals, etc.); and, internally by the body’s own metabolic processes.

Over the past decade, extensive research has found that if the body’s detoxification system is sluggish, toxins will accumulate, slowing down cellular energy production and increasing the number of tissue-damaging free radicals. In addition, pathogenic bacteria continue to multiply faster than the immune system can kill them and remove their debris, creating an overloading and clogging of the lymphatic system and various organs.

This can eventually lead to various systemic diseases/ailments such as chronic fatigue, weight gain, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, cancer, fibromyalgia, and Alzheimer’s. In the meantime, the body’s detoxification and excretory organs (e.g. colon, kidneys, liver, gallbladder, lymphatic system) struggle to effectively remove the toxins, excess glucose, and acid waste.

The liver is the primary organ that performs the detoxification. The liver accomplishes this by using specific enzymes to transform the toxins into intermediate chemicals; and, other enzymes to transform the intermediate chemicals into harmless water-soluble substances that are then excreted in the bile or urine. But, if the liver becomes sluggish, clogged, or impaired, these toxins can begin to accumulate in the body’s tissues and blood. Consequently, it is very important that the liver is kept as healthy as possible. Ironically, when we don’t feel well, we take an over-the-counter or prescription drug, which is toxic and only puts more stress on an already deteriorating liver and suppresses the symptoms, making us think we’re okay.

The colon (or large intestine) is important to cleansing and detoxification because it removes the unwanted fecal waste and other toxins. Discomfort in the colon usually manifests itself as something such as diarrhea or constipation. Unfortunately, our response to this is usually a drug, such as a laxative, to “force” the elimination of the fecal waste. But many of the other toxins are left behind and reabsorbed into the bloodstream attacking the tissues and organs, and producing their own pathogenic bacteria that attack the body’s weakest points. These attacks manifest themselves in the form of aches and pain in the back, joints, stomach, and head, and, then onto the other tissues and organs. This leads to more discomfort and more drugs, followed by more diseases, stronger drugs, hospital visits, and eventually death – unless the toxins are removed.

The kidneys are important to cleansing and detoxification because they filter the blood (210 quarts a day) by eliminating toxins and waste materials from the blood, and for maintaining the electrolyte balance by selectively eliminating some electrolytes while retaining others, according to the body’s needs. Electrolytes include sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and chloride. These electrolytes are important because they are used by the cells to maintain voltages across the cell membranes and carry electrical impulses (e.g. nerve impulses, muscle contractions) across themselves and to other cells. The kidneys also help regulate other bodily functions by secreting the hormones renin, erythropoietin, and prostaglandin. Renin helps control blood pressure, erythropoietin stimulates the body to produce more red blood cells, and prostaglandin helps control blood pressure, muscle contractions, and inflammation.

The high levels of glucose in the blood and the accumulation of acids in the kidneys cause the formation of kidney stones and ultimately cause kidney cells to die. Because kidney cells cannot be regenerated or repaired, the remaining cells have to work that much harder to filter substances from the blood. To help with the filtering process, the heart increases the flow of blood plasma to the kidneys, which in turn elevates blood pressure. As the kidney cells continue to die, the risk of kidney failure increases dramatically.

The lymphatic system is also important to cleansing and detoxification. As the blood circulates, providing nutrients and oxygen to all parts of the body, the lymphatic system accumulates dead bacteria and toxins that need to be removed. Lymphatic vessels are situated intricately alongside blood vessels, relying upon body movement to move the lymph fluid around to collect and drain away toxins and dead bacteria through the lymph nodes and skin (pores).

Cleansing/Detoxification

If the colon, liver, kidneys, lymphatic system, and other body systems are working properly, the body will cleanse and detoxify itself to get rid of the toxins. And, as long as the body is provided with the proper nutrients, the body will continue to cleanse and detoxify itself.

However, if you have a systemic degenerative disease/ailment such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, indigestion, or constipation, then, your body and its cells are sick and full of toxins, and are unable to cleanse and detoxify properly. Consequently, you will need to eat “live” super foods to help your body with the cleansing and detoxification until your body is healthy enough to perform the cleansing and detoxification on its own.

If you want to further accelerate the detoxification process, you should drink at least 2 cups of raw vegetable juices (with 1 tbsp. ground flaxseed or wheat grass powder), followed by 2 cups of filtered water at least 2 times each day. Within a few days you should notice an increase in your regularity (bowel movements) and a better texture of your fecal waste.

Then, depending on your health state, within two to three weeks you should notice an increase in your energy level and a reduction in your cravings for the “dead” processed foods. These are indicators that your body is cleansing and detoxifying itself and initiating the healing process.

To further accelerate this healing, and depending on the severity of your health state, it may be necessary to use wholefood supplements and organic herbal products to nourish the colon, liver, gall bladder, lymph nodes, and kidneys while protecting them from oxidative damage during the cleansing/detoxification process.

Why is cleansing/detoxification necessary? Let’s take a car that has not had an oil change or engine tune-up and has been running on cheap fuel for several years. If you switch from the cheap fuel to a higher-octane “super” fuel, the car may run a little better, but it will still run sluggish. Once you change the oil and air filters and tune up the engine, the car will run even better. The same principle applies to the human body – if you clean the filters (the kidneys and liver), then, this will help them to remove the buildup of toxins and waste and kill the pathogenic bacteria and parasites so that the body will run better.

If you are overweight by more than 20 pounds, more than likely, you are carrying as much as ten pounds of fecal matter packed in your colon. If you are also struggling with high cholesterol or high blood pressure, then, your body is carrying extra fluid/waste in your cells and tissues.

Consequently, cleansing the liver and kidneys, your body’s primary filters, will help the body to better release this extra fluid/waste. This will thin out the blood, hydrate cells, break down fats, absorb protein, convert glycogen to glucose, turn on the body’s natural healing mechanisms, and, in most cases, lower blood pressure, inflammation, cholesterol, glucose levels, and body weight.

Benefits of the "Death to Diabetes" Wellness Program

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 13:00:00 +0000

Death to Diabetes (ISBN 0977360741), now one of the top-selling diabetes books in the U.S, is one of the few diabetes books that looks at diabetes at the cellular level and from several aspects of medical science, including pathology, etiology, and epidemiology. The book also looks at diabetes from the aspect of several engineering sciences including reverse engineering, failure modes & effects analysis, root cause analysis, statistical analysis, meta analysis, and process engineering. The book identifies more than 200 clinical studies that support the nutritional recommendations of the author.

As a result, the book provides a concise and easy-to-read set of procedures for a Type 2 diabetic to customize to his/her needs and get their diabetes under control within three months. As a result, many diabetics have been able to reverse their diabetes and beat the disease.

The key benefits to following the “Death to Diabetes” wellness program include:

Lower your blood glucose level to the normal range within days.
Increase your energy level, and avoid the cravings and highs and lows associated with eating processed foods.
Begin reversing and beating your diabetes within 30 days.
Lose weight (fat) by turning your body into a fat-burning machine.
Reduce the belly fat, which is hard to get rid of following conventional diets.
Save thousands of dollars from drugs, more drugs, surgeries, hospital stays, and high healthcare insurance premiums.
Save hundreds of dollars from grocery-shopping and food bills.
Learn how to transform your favorite foods into healthier foods, so that you can enjoy eating without the anxiety.
Enjoy weddings, picnics, birthday parties, and other social events – because the book teaches you how to eat before and after these events to limit the damage to your health.
Enjoy a better sex life, because the wellness program addresses circulatory issues that have proven to be one of the primary problems associated with sexual dysfunction.
Look younger and so much better that your friends think that you have had a facelift or liposuction!
Prevent the complications of diabetes, including heart attack, stroke, blindness, amputation, gum disease, and kidney failure.
Reverse your diabetes and its complications in 3 to 6 months
Lifetime subscription to the Death to Diabetes Newsletter (valued at more than $839)

More than 91% of Type 2 diabetics who followed this program have achieved some improvement in their diabetes and overall health, including lower blood pressure, lower A1C and lower BMI.

Here are several of the hundreds of testimonials from diabetics and non-diabetics:

“My doctor told me that all signs of my diabetes were gone! And, the pain in my foot from the neuropathy is gone.” D. Carter, ex-diabetic

“I got this book “Death to Diabetes” for a relative and she loved it so much she got one for her doctor! Her doctor loves “Death to Diabetes” too! Her glucose readings have been steadily returning to normal ranges and she is off oral diabetic meds and is no longer on daily insulin injections. All this within 6 months of reeducating herself to the truth. This is truly DEATH to DIABETES!!! Follow it, don’t question it, and see the results for yourself!!” V. Koehler

“My husband has diabetes and up until recently it has been uncontrollable, so we've been reading book after book on the subject. When I purchased "Death to Diabetes", it was like none other in scope … This is the one book that every diabetic should read.” G. Martin (Houston, TX)

“My daughter sent me two books and while I refer to the other occasionally, this book “Death to Diabetes” set me in the direction of getting off my meds and reversing my diabetic condition. A MUST READ for all diabetics, newly diagnosed or long term. I loved it.” Janeice Pennington (Hawaii)

“I recommend this book (“Death to Diabetes”) not only to all diabetics but to anyone who is suffering from his or her unhealthy lifestyle. Although McCulley's theories are not strictly in line with current medical thinking, his advice for changing our lives for the better is right on. Over half of all Type 2 diabetics who strictly follow his advice will be cured of their diabetes problem, as well as lowering their cholesterol and blood pressure. Don't miss out on this book.” Dr. William Bayer, MD (Rochester, NY)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes:
This book has coined several new phrases that are spreading across America, e.g. ex-diabetic, the 5 super foods, the 5 dead foods, The Super Meal Model, The Death to Diabetes Diet, super carbs, super fats, the 7 diabetes wellness factors, victor of wellness vs. victim of illness, diabetes engineer, engineer1337, 6-stage diabetes program, etc.

McCulley’s workshops and seminars have been well-received because of the thoroughness of his lectures and his ability to use humor and his personal stories to bring hope and connect with other diabetics.

McCulley states during his lectures: “You can beat your diabetes, and you can reverse the complications of Type 2 diabetes – if you are armed with the knowledge and the drive to want to live a healthier life. Just follow the Super Breakfast protocol on my website.”

McCulley says emphatically: “You can become a victor of knowledge & wellness, and stop being a victim of ignorance & illness – it’s all up to you.”

Motivation & Will Power! to Help Reverse Type 2 Diabetes

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 06:21:00 +0000

Motivation & Will Power!
Some diabetics believe that they lack the motivation and will power to make the necessary changes to improve their health and their diabetes.

If you have trouble with motivation or will power, we have some good news!

The lack of motivation or will power can be overcome in 3 ways:
1. Make only 1 or 2 very small changes that require very little if any motivation or will power.
2. Change the chemistry in your brain that prevents the release of serotonin (the feel-good hormone).
3. Talk with someone (like Mr. McCulley) who's been where you are.

Consequently, we strongly recommend that you set up a 1-on-1 consultation with Mr. McCulley to discuss your specific health situation and motivational techniques that will work for you.

Stop wasting your money on drugs that you know don't work, and stop getting frustrated because you feel a lack of motivation or will power -- Mr. McCulley (or one of our other diabetes health experts) can help you with this! Mr. McCulley can show you how to make very small changes and have a big impact on your brain chemistry and your health within 2-3 weeks.

Mr. McCulley understands where you are, your fears, your anxiety, your lack of drive and motivation -- he's been there and done that! We realize that it's difficult to open up to a stranger, but if you've watched any of Mr. McCulley's Youtube videos, or listened to someone talking about him or someone introducing him, or listen to him talking about his daughter, you can see that he is very personable and articulates aspects of the disease very well.

Mr. McCulley and our diabetes health coaching experts provide the guidance, insight, specific nutritional advice, and a natural approach -- to better control your glucose and insulin levels. If you're taking diabetic drugs, they may control your blood glucose levels, but they don't control the more important high insulin levels that are damaging your liver and kidneys! (as explained in Chapter 3). Mr. McCulley and our diabetes health coaching experts explain how to use the Super Meal program to safely wean off the drugs.

The book (Chapter 13) provides some general information about spiritual health and will power but that doesn't really translate to you the individual.

That's why we work with individuals such as yourself 1-on-1 to identify customized solutions that align with your lifestyle and require minimum motivation and will power on your part.

For example, we show you how to transform your favorite foods and comfort foods into healthier versions so that you can better control your blood glucose level -- with minimum changes on your part!

Making a lot of changes requires a lot of will power and motivation. Making small changes or almost no changes requires very little will power and motivation.

You see, our 1-on-1 health coaching services are designed to specifically help people with will power and motivational issues. Don't be afraid of the challenge -- we will help you as we have helped thousands of diabetics all over the country, and now outside the country.

Note: Also, if you are struggling with changing your eating habits, then, the Food Tips document shows you how to enjoy your favorite foods and comfort foods without making a lot of changes to your eating habits!

Diabetes Medical Conference - Segment #3 - The Doctor's Denial

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 16:01:00 +0000

Despite the dramatic improvement in his blood glucose and hemoglobin A1C tests results, DeWayne's endocrinologist felt that he would eventually be back on insulin within 3 to 6 months. That was back in August of 2002 ...

Because of his miraculous recovery and the success of his wellness program, DeWayne (who grew up in Western Pennsylvania and graduated from Pennsylvania State University, B.S./E.E.) continued to receive phone calls and emails from diabetics all over the country, asking questions about their specific health needs. One of the reasons why DeWayne wrote his book was to reduce the number of phone calls and emails. However, the numbers have continued to increase, leading DeWayne to start health coaching over the phone. That, in turn, led DeWayne and his company Death to Diabetes, LLC to join forces with a health services company. As a national diabetes educator and health coach, DeWayne conducts Death to Diabetes® workshops and seminars, and provides professional health coaching services to various companies, organizations, families, and individuals.

DeWayne's daughter Cynthia believes that he is a cross between Chris Rock and Dr Oz, because he's able to use humor and his medical knowledge to provide an entertaining lecture about diabetes. And, Cynthia believes that people love his message because it is inspiring and brings hope to so many people who identify with what her dad has gone through. And, because he faced all the problems that diabetics face, these diabetics identify with him, and they feel hopeful that now they can get healthier.

DeWayne, who has been featured in news articles and on radio shows in various cities, credited his success in Corporate America to strong parents, great teachers in elementary, junior and senior high school, and the blue-collar work ethic of the steel mills in Western Pennsylvania. DeWayne states emphatically, "For some strange reason, I was blessed with great teachers who reinforced what my parents had instilled in me -- that I could do anything as long as I was willing to put in the effort and do the work. Ironically, that work ethic mentality helped me to successfully fight and beat my diabetes."

The 6-Stage Death to Diabetes Wellness Model -- An Actual Cure for Type 2 Diabetes?

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 15:52:00 +0000

Mr. McCulley's 6-stage wellness model is the "heart" of his top-selling book "Death to Diabetes". This model is based upon using medical wellness protocols and leveraging several key engineering sciences as shown at the beginning of this video. This video also shows some of his diagrams demonstrating his knowledge of biochemistry, epidemiology, and etiology. The Diabetes Engineer's wellness model guides a diabetic through 6 stages, based on specific biomarkers, including blood glucose, blood pressure, homocysteine, and several other key markers.

The six (6) stages are as follows:
Stage 1 No Blood Glucose (BG)/ Insulin Control
Stage 2 BG Control)/ Insulin Control with Drugs
Stage 3 BG Control)/ Insulin Control with Reduced Drugs
Stage 4 BG Control)/ Insulin Control without Drugs
Stage 5 BG)/Insulin & HbA1C Control (without Drugs)
Stage 6 BG)/Insulin & HbA1C Tighter Control (without Drugs)

Also, Mr. McCulley looks at the "biology" and "biochemistry" of diabetes at the cellular level and uses other areas of medical science such as etiology, pathology, and epidemiology to help "quantify" diabetes and define measurable activities and tests that help to improve the health of a diabetic from Stage 1 to Stage 2 to Stages 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Mr. McCulley used his knowledge of statistics and data analysis to help him defeat the disease, but he also used this knowledge to demonstrate the cultural and financial impacts of this disease -- to increase diabetics' awareness of this disease beyond themselves.

Mr. McCulley realizes that some diabetics will not reach the "cured' stage (Stage 6) -- if they don't improve their biomarkers and blood test results over a sustained period of time. Unfortunately, most people don't realize or understand that Mr. McCulley's medical wellness model is metrics-driven and requires a diabetic to achieve specific measurements to move from one stage to the next. It's not an arbitrary progression from one stage to the next -- this is where Mr. McCulley used his engineering background to design a well-structured and systematic model that could actually be implemented by the medical profession since it is based upon their own metrics. This 6-stage model provides a "roadmap" for the diabetic on his/her journey to improved health.

Here's what Mr. McCulley has to say about "cure" in his book at the end of Chapter 1:

Author Sidebar: I do not consider my diabetes wellness strategy to be an official "cure" for Type 2 diabetes, despite all of the evidence. As an engineer, I do not believe in anecdotal data - I believe in the data from independent, qualified test labs and similar resources. A series of double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies need to be performed to properly validate (or discredit) my diabetes wellness program. Hopefully, there is a company that would be interested in pursuing this endeavor for the betterment of our country and the world.

But, several doctors have told Mr. McCulley that he is cured.

If you take a look at his 6-stage wellness model, it requires a diabetic to achieve Stage 6 with specific biomarkers and a complete repair of the defective cells that fuel Type 2 diabetes. During Stage 5, Mr. McCulley requires a Type 2 diabetic to eat pasta, ice cream, and other high glycemic foods as part of a controlled "stress test". If their blood glucose level skyrockets and remains high especially post-meal, then, they are still diabetic and can never achieve Stage 6 and be cured. In theory, if the body repairs the defective and inflamed cells (specifically, the insulin receptors), it can rid itself of the diabetes and achieve Stage 6. And, even if a diabetic doesn't achieve Stage 6, they are still much better off health-wise than what conventional medicine offers with its drug treatment that leads to more drugs and more side effects.

Drug treatment only addresses the symptoms of Type 2 diabetes, e.g. high blood glucose levels. Many of the drugs, including insulin, "cover up" the disease and create a false expectation that everything is fine. But Mr. McCulley contends that there is more to controlling diabetes than just controlling blood glucose levels. His program goes beyond just focusing on controlling the symptoms of Type 2 diabetes -- it gets at the actual root causes of the disease.

Note: Mr. McCulley is very careful when talking to diabetics to not set any false expectations that they can be cured. Instead he focuses on showing them how to improve their health in several key areas, not just their blood glucose levels.

How Xerox Engineering Helped to Save DeWayne McCulley's Life

noreply@blogger.com (DeWayne McCulley (The Diabetes Engineer)) — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 15:45:00 +0000

The following will provide a better understanding and insight into Mr. McCulley's engineering background and how he used that background to shock the doctors and beat the odds, and become The Diabetes Engineer. Hopefully, people will appreciate the power and the gifts that engineering can bring to improving our health and the health of future generations.

During his 30+ year career in engineering with Xerox and Hughes Aircraft, Mr. McCulley had many different jobs. At the time, he didn't understand why he didn't specialize in just one field of engineering; and, how that morphed into this "diabetic engineering".

He was a diagnostic engineer which taught him how to diagnose and troubleshoot complex machines and figure out why they break down. He used his troubleshooting skills to figure out why he was dying.

He was a test engineer which taught him how to test machines, define the critical tests, collect the data, package the data into line, pie and bar charts; analyze the data, and draw conclusions based on those charts and the data. He used that experience to identify the critical blood tests and improve his health, and now uses that experience to help other diabetics understand their own blood glucose data and blood test results.

He was a biochemical engineer which taught him how to understand the biology, pathology, etiology, and pathogenesis of Type 2 diabetes at the cellular level and the system level, as well as understand nutritional science far beyond what nutritionists/dietitians understand at the macro and micro levels. He has expanded this insight into biochemistry to increase his understanding of cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, and other systemic health issues. This also helped him to understand how the drugs really affect us, and why various blood/hormonal tests are important -- to show how the drugs are affecting us even when we feel okay.

He was a technical writer which taught him how to write and develop documentation. This helped him design and develop his first book, and is helping him develop his next series of books (a diabetes cookbook, handbook, and bootcamp program).

He was a field engineer which taught him how to answer phone calls from customers and technicians who had broken machines in their offices. He would ask questions and guide the technician to fix the machine. He now uses those same skills to help diabetics who call our wellness center with questions about their diabetes and their health.

He was a training analyst and a product trainer, which taught him how to design training programs and conduct training classes. He is now developing diabetes education programs, and conducting diabetes workshops that people just love.

He was a graphic user interface (GUI) designer which taught him how to design graphics, charts, diagrams, etc. This helps him design effective PowerPoint slides and diagrams for his lectures.

He was a reliability/statistics engineer which taught him how to analyze data to recognize data trends, failure modes of components and their failure rate data to predict when and why a machine would fail and break down. He used that experience to understand epidemiology and disease trends, and why our bodies break down and we become ill.

He was a financial planner for a short time, which taught him the importance of finances and how they impact us. He used that experience to evaluate the healthcare and financial impacts of diabetes.

All of this has helped Mr. McCulley to consider writing a new book about the "illusion of health" and the "insulin addiction trap". These are two critical areas that are sorely misunderstood and is driving a false sense of good health because we either feel good or we don't feel any side effects from the drugs we're taking, even the drugs we think are "good" for us -- such as insulin.

Note: Mr. McCulley's mother (a very spiritual woman) believes it was God guiding him to obtain all of this training to prepare him for this moment -- to help other diabetics and become The Diabetes Engineer.

DeWayne McCulley is an ex-diabetic engineer who survived a near-death, diabetic coma with a blood glucose level of 1337 -- more than 1200 points above normal!

Are you skeptical? (I would be!). Take a look at the doctor's medical report of DeWayne's blood glucose level and other health issues; or, watch a TV news video or read what DeWayne's doctor said in a newspaper article about his miraculous recovery.

Despite two blood clots, high cholesterol, pneumonia and four insulin shots a day, DeWayne was able to use his engineering and biochemistry background to wean himself off the insulin, Coumadin and Lipitor -- to reverse his Type 2 diabetes. He lowered his average glucose level to 92.5 mg/dL and his hemoglobin A1C to 4.7%, while losing 52 pounds to reverse his Type 2 diabetes within 4 months.

He credits his recovery to God, his doctors/nurses, his mother, his daughter Cynthia, a set of accidents (blessings), and his undying thirst for knowledge -- despite all of the "impossible" challenges he had to overcome. With a lot of encouragement from his daughter, his mother and people from work, the local churches, wellness industry, and the ADA diabetic support group he was facilitating, DeWayne decided to write the book, Death to Diabetes.

The Death to Diabetes book explains his experience with diabetes, the real root causes of diabetes, and the pathogenesis of the disease. The book also explains how to reverse Type 2 diabetes and its complications -- by avoiding the 5 "dead" foods, eating the 5 "super" foods, taking the 5 critical wholefood nutritional supplements; following the Death to Diabetes® Super Meal Model; and, utilizing the 7 wellness factors, including consistent exercise, blood glucose testing/analysis, stress reduction, and spiritual health.

His hope is that this book and his wellness training programs will inspire you the way he was inspired -- by people he never would have met if it weren't for his experience with diabetes.
