IF YOU ARE DIABETIC: KNOW WHAT TO EAT, WHAT TO BURY

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO EAT YOUR WAY TO DIABETES AND MORE, THIS IS ALSO FOR YOU.

If you are diabetic, depending on your stage though, there are certain foods you should never negotiate with. These are NOT “cheat meals.” They are invitations to complications. If you keep dancing with sugar, one day, your feet will stop dancing.

The average diabetic today is fighting a war that food companies are sponsoring. The packaging is fine, the marketing is loud, but the content is a silent weapon. Many patients keep feeding their disease while taking drugs to control the same disease. That is like mopping the floor while the tap is still running.

Let us speak truth: your pancreas is tired, your insulin sensitivity is weak, and your blood is already heavy with glucose. You have NO business with carbohydrate-heavy foods that push your sugar through the roof. White rice, brown rice, semovita, fufu, yam, garri, spaghetti, noodles, and their cousins are sweet assassins. They look harmless on the plate, but what they do in your bloodstream is criminal.

Pap, corn, and cornflakes are NOT breakfast. They are glucose bombs in disguise. Bread, pancakes, and pastries may smell divine, but they drag your sugar up like a kite in harmattan wind. If it is starchy, sticky, or comes in a nylon, it is a NO-GO area.

Soft drinks, malt, energy drinks, and “fruit juices” should have a skull logo printed on them. They are NOT drinks; they are metabolic disasters waiting to happen, YES na potential heart attack in bottles dem be. They give pleasure for minutes but demand amputations later.

Civilization should mean progress, NOT polished poison.

Even “natural” sweet things can betray you. Honey, dates, pineapples, mangoes, watermelon, ripe plantain, pawpaw, and fruit smoothies mixed like party punch. Your blood sugar does NOT care how natural the source is; it only sees the glucose. Eat like a healer, NOT a victim of taste buds.

Fats and oils can also be friends or FOES. There's NO vegetable in those vegetable oils marketed to you, they are rancid seed oils. Seed oils like groundnut, canola, soy, and sunflower are enemies of your arteries. They ignite inflammation that worsens diabetes complications. Use what nature made whole such as red palm oil, coconut oil, olive oil, or animal fats like tallow and ghee. They do NOT just flavor your food; they protect your cells. Unfortunately, they've been demonized for causing you high blood cholesterol and heat attacks, just to market industrial pò!Sons.

Cholesterol is bad for you, who said? That's by the way.

Canned foods, sausages, instant noodles, and all those “ready-to-eat” miracles of modern laziness should be kept far from your kitchen. They are laced with chemicals, MSG, and and other chemicals that turn your blood pressure, liverand kidneys into punching bags.

If it is advertised during football matches, it probably does NOT belong in a diabetic’s body.
If it lasts one year on a shelf, it will NOT last one hour in your bloodstream without causing trouble.

Alcohol and bitters do NOT “flush the system.” They fuel it with fire. Every shot you take makes your liver weaker and your insulin resistance stronger. Palm wine, beer, or red wine are NOT your friends. The only bitters a diabetic needs is the taste of discipline.

Let us be honest. If it is sweet, sticky, starchy, or comes in a packet, avoid it.

If it is leafy, oily (from natural oils), fishy, or comes directly from the ground or tree, it is safer in moderation.

Diabetes does NOT kill overnight. It kills silently, gradually, through your daily choices. You CANNOT pray insulin levels down while eating like a sugar addict. Healing starts when the plate becomes your medicine.

Say NO to sweet destruction. Say NO to modern slavery in cans and nylon.

Eat with wisdom, live with purpose, and remember that every bite is either healing or harming you. Choose well.

This is Progeria, a painful reminder that NOT every grey hair belongs to old age.

Progeria, or Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, is one of nature’s cruel ironies, a child born fresh and full of life, yet aging faster than the calendar can turn. Their bodies race against time, while their minds remain as young and brilliant as any child their age.

Imagine a 7-year-old with the face of a 70-year-old. Skin wrinkled, bones fragile, hair gone, joints stiff, NOT because of bad habits or lifestyle, but because of a single genetic error. A mutation in the LMNA gene produces a toxic protein called progerin, which damages the cells from within. The body keeps growing older, but never stronger.

They don’t live to experience adulthood. Average life expectancy is around 13 years. Yet within those few years, they carry the marks of aging: heart disease, joint stiffness, brittle bones, and exhaustion that should NOT belong to childhood.

Progeria is NOT contagious. It is NOT a punishment. It is a genetic accident, a tragic twist in the blueprint of life. But it teaches us something powerful: time is precious, and health is fragile.

So while many waste their years chasing vanity, remember, some are begging heaven for just a few more birthdays.

Live wisely. Live gratefully. Because you are aging normally, and that’s a blessing beyond measure.

ONCE AGAIN!

I saw a post where a doctor was listing things to consider before buying an infant formula, and under the comment section, modern parents were passionately arguing about which one is the best among NAN, SMA, Aptamil, or whichever new brand just dropped.

Some even said “NAN or NOTHING,” boldly affirming their love for industrial products given to infants with fragile guts, developing immune systems, and tender livers still learning the meaning of digestion.

BUT LISTEN ...

We should look beyond the obvious.
If your well never runs dry, you have NO business buying water.

Nothing, I mean NOTHING, comes close to breast milk. It is NOT just food, it is living intelligence in liquid form. It feeds, protects, trains, and fortifies your child’s immune system in ways that NO formula made in a factory can replicate.

Breast milk adapts to your baby’s needs per day, per hour, even per illness. It is the only meal on earth that understands your child’s genetic and environmental reality.

Formula can fill the stomach, but it CANNOT transfer immunity, antibodies, enzymes, or motherly hormones that shape growth and intelligence. You cannot commercialize what God designed to be personalized.

Some mothers truly cannot breastfeed, that’s understandable and medical support should come in. But for those who can, yet choose NOT to because “it’s stressful” or “it makes the breast sag,” be reminded that vanity has never raised a healthy generation.

If your breast still flows, use it.
Because NO formula, NO brand, and NO billion-dollar advertisement can create another version of you in a can.

Infant formula or breastmilk?

I DON'T CARE WHO YOU BE..

Many are currently in the haemodialysis ward, Renal and liver wards,

Some are currently soliciting to raise funds for kidney and liver transplant, with the regret '' Had I known"

Here is a picture of a group of young, handsome men gathered around a table, bottles of alcohol raised, smiling like life was perfect. The caption read, “From celebration over our wins, to emotional support in tough times, celebrate these honourable moments with the refreshing taste of Trophy Lager.” Honourable moments? With alcohol? How did we get here?

We are now at the point where destruction is packaged as dignity, where addiction is romanticized, and self-destruction is sold with smiles and bright lighting. The young generation is drowning in bottles, yet they call it bonding. Let’s be clear, there is NOTHING honourable about poisoning your liver. There is NOTHING refreshing about damaging your brain cells and calling it relief. Alcohol is NOT therapy, it is anesthesia. It numbs you today and ruins you tomorrow.

What they call “honourable moments” are actually harmful habits dressed in marketing brilliance. They sell slow death with fancy slogans, and the consumers clap for their own burial. These brands know what they are doing. They are NOT selling drinks, they are selling identity, and many youths are buying it with their destiny.

Celebrate, yes. But let your joy be pure. Honourable moments are NOT found in bottles, they are found in self-control, discipline, and sound health. Because when your liver fails, the same society that sold you the bottle will sell you the drugs.

CHRONIC DISEASES ARE SILENTLY CLAIMING MEN OF THE ALTAR
(Health alert for men on the altar/pulpit) ..

If you are a pastor, prophet, evangelist, or worker in the vineyard, hear this clearly.

Your health is second to nothing. You CANNOT preach the gospel when crippled by chronic illness.

Why am I saying this?

It's because most pastors, police officers, teachers, and other frontline workers are now hypertensive, diabetic, fatty-livered, obese or carrying a dangerous combination of these.

Chronic diseases are NO longer a stranger to the altar. They are claiming pastors, teachers, police officers, and men in service.

Potbelly is now a common sight, and let me tell you, potbelly is NOT a sign of blessing. It is a recipe for diabetes, hypertension, and cardiac arrest.

We see them collapsing in their 40s and early 50s.
It is NOT always spiritual attack. Many times, it is neglected health. We keep on hearing of prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers who suddenly collapsed while preaching, slumped on the altar, or never woke up from sleep.

These are NOT random mysteries. Most times, it is the body breaking down after years of neglect.

They keep masking symptoms with prayers and drugs, yet the body keeps crying underneath.

The bitter truth: if you are eliminated today, there are hundreds on the queue to take your seat. The work of God will continue, but your family will bury you in tears.

This is NOT to scare you but to awaken you.
Watch and pray, yes. But also eat wisely, rest well, check your blood pressure, check your blood sugar, exercise those feet.

Even Jesus rested by the well.

Please brethren, balance the altar with the clinic, balance prayers with preventive health.

There is hardly anyone today who has NOT lost a neighbor, colleague, sister, or friend to death by the slow poison of lifestyle diseases. Heart disease has become the modern thief of life, aided and abetted by the very things we celebrate daily. We toast with bottles of sugar-laced acid, we baptize bread as breakfast, and we worship the couch as our resting altar. Then we wonder why the heart suddenly seizes in betrayal.

A woman once stopped greeting me. Why? Because I condemned “heart attack in bottles” while she sat there sipping Coke and Pepsi as though they were sacred offerings. Add bread to crown the meal. Yet this same woman in her early 40s CANNOT climb a staircase without gasping like a weary diesel engine. She thinks her silence is punishing me, but in truth, her body is the one punishing her.

The tragedy of modern living is that people now prefer sweet poison today and cry bitter tears tomorrow. They trade health for momentary pleasure, mortgage their hearts to processed food industries, and call it enjoyment. Obesity is NOT just about body size. It is a signpost of metabolic chaos, a breeding ground for hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, infertility, stroke, and cancers. Childhood obesity is now the cruel inheritance we hand over to the next generation through bad parenting and worse diets. We feed children with fries, sodas, and instant noodles, and then ask why they CANNOT sit in class without hyperactivity or climb stairs without puffing.

Modern medicine calls these “non-communicable diseases.” In reality, they are very communicable, not by germs but by lifestyle, culture, and family tradition. If your parents die in their 40s and 50s from heart disease, yet you are repeating the same diet and lifestyle, then death has already signed your invitation card.

The hospital may try. Stents, bypass surgery, antihypertensives, cholesterol drugs, all will be lined up. But at the end, even the best hospital in the world might NOT save you. Because the root cause is NOT a shortage of drugs, it is a shortage of discipline.

Prevention is the only wise choice. Eat whole natural foods. Avoid processed sugars, seed oils, and junk calories. Drink water like your life depends on it, because it does. Walk daily. Rest properly. Guard your heart like treasure, because the first four letters of health still spell HEAL.

Ignore this, and biology will NOT forgive. You may stop greeting those who tell you the truth, but you cannot stop your own heart from collapsing under the weight of silent abuse.

GALLBLADDER AND BILE DUCT CANCER (Cholangiocarcinoma)
(cancer in the biliary tract, another cancer with poor prognosis)..

In the TOP 10 ruthless cancers is cholangiocarcinoma.

Gallbladder cancer and bile duct cancer may NOT be as popular as breast or prostate cancer, but when they strike, they strike hard. They are silent killers, lurking in the shadows of the digestive system until it is too late. By the time most patients walk into the hospital, the disease has already spread, surgery becomes nearly impossible, and survival is short. The prognosis is grim.

The gallbladder is a small organ that stores bile, while the bile ducts carry bile from the liver to the intestine to help digest fats. Cancers here are rare, but when they appear, they are aggressive and unforgiving. The tragedy lies in how quiet they remain at the start. Symptoms like abdominal pain, jaundice, weight loss, and nausea usually appear late, when the disease has already crippled the system.

Risk factors are NOT far-fetched. Chronic gallstones that irritate the gallbladder lining year after year can trigger mutations. Untreated bile duct infections and inflammations create fertile ground for cancer to grow. Smoking, alcohol, obesity, and high-fat diets worsen the chances. Chronic hepatitis and parasitic infections in some regions are also linked. Genetics may load the gun, but lifestyle pulls the trigger.

Treatment options are limited. Surgery is only possible in early stages, which is rare. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy may buy some months, but cure is elusive. The hospital might try, but just like in hepatocellular carcinoma and pancreatic cancer, the prognosis remains almost similar to a death sentence. Even the best hospital in the world may NOT save you when this cancer arrives.

Remember:Chemo might K!LL you, even before the cancer does.

Prevention is therefore the real cure. Protect your liver, guard your bile ducts. Do NOT ignore gallstones or chronic abdominal pain. Approach hepatitis in a correct way. Avoid smoking and ditch alcohol. Eat foods that heal, NOT foods that slowly destroy the system.

Remember, every careless meal, every ignored symptom, every unhealthy habit is a step closer to writing your name on the register of preventable cancers.

Gallbladder and bile duct cancers(cholangiocarcinoma) remind us again: health is cheaper than sickness, and prevention is far better than cure.

WORLD ALZHEIMER'S DAY, 2025

Alzheimer’s Disease is more than just a memory problem. It is, in fact, insulin resistance in the brain.

Scientists are beginning to call it “Type 3 Diabetes” because the brain literally stops responding to insulin, the very hormone that fuels energy and proper function in the cells. When the brain cannot utilize glucose effectively, neurons begin to starve, connections weaken, and cognitive decline sets in. This explains why patients with long-standing diabetes often face higher risks of Alzheimer’s.

It is NOT just about genetics, it is NOT just about aging, and it is definitely NOT inevitable. Poor diet, high sugar intake, processed foods, seed oils, and chronic stress all set the stage for the brain to become resistant to insulin.

Once this resistance develops, plaques and tangles appear, memory falters, and personality begins to change. If we see Alzheimer’s in this light, then prevention and management must shift. It is not simply about late diagnosis and medication, it is about lifestyle.

Protecting the brain requires protecting insulin sensitivity throughout life. This means eating real food, reducing refined sugar, staying active, resting well, and reducing toxic exposures. The brain is NOT designed to fail us, but when we overload it with what it cannot process, we invite disease. Alzheimer’s is insulin resistance in the brain, and that truth must guide how we fight it.
