This is the way diabetes has been managed in the United States, and most westernized countries, for many decades.

The person that is diagnosed with having diabetes is started on medication and advised to eat carbohydrates sufficiently enough to avoid hypoglycemia, which can result if medication is taken without consuming sufficient carbohydrates. They are specifically instructed not to consume to few carbohydrates because they would risk this adverse effect. These people therefore need to eat carbs in order to keep taking the medication.

One might reason that if you consumed less carbohydrates you would require less medication. If you over consume carbohydrates, blood sugar levels will rise significantly, and you will need more medication. This might seem like common sense, but it is not the way it is managed. These guidelines have been established by the American Diabetes Association, followed willingly by the endocrinologists, and essentially all other providers that manage those with type 2 diabetes.

This, of course, begs the question of what truly is type 2 diabetes? What are the underlying root causes of the condition? Is it reversible? Can it be placed into remission without the need for ongoing medication? These are not answers that seemed to flow from the medical establishment. It almost appears like there is a resistance, or lack of interest, in considering these things. Much like so many other chronic medical conditions, people are told they will need to take a medication for the rest of their lives. I can attest this is not true, the answers to those questions are available, and there are alternative options.

RECIPE: GODDESS TEA

Ingredients

🍵 1 tablespoon dried white peony (Paeonia lactiflora) root
🍵 1 tablespoon dried shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) root
🍵 3-5 dried rose (Rosa spp.) buds
🍵 2 cups water
🍵 Cashew or coconut milk
🍵 Raw honey to taste

Directions

Add the water, peony root, and shatavari root to a small pot and place on the stove over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil then cover with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for about 40 minutes.
Turn off the stove and remove the pot from the hot burner. Immediately add the rose buds to the pot of tea and cover with the lid. Allow the rose buds to infuse for about 5 minutes.
Strain all of the herbs from the tea and pour into a heat-safe container. Add a splash of cashew or coconut milk and raw honey to taste (depending on how sweet you like your tea to taste).
Relax, sip, and feel nourished.
