3 For Your Information TravelFit Online compiled the following information from various and multiple medical, public and anecdotal sources. None of the presentation or information is intended to be or should be utilized as a diagnosis, treatment or prescription. The information is another tool that allows you to better personally direct your health and wellness program. You are the final authority for your health care and wellness. As W. Mitchell said, It s not what happens to you, but what you do about it. Take Charge. It s Your Life. (

4 Topics to be Considered Chronic versus Acute Disease Diabetes Insulin Resistance - A Metabolic Disease Metabolic Cures versus Pharmacologic Coverup Weight Loss LCHF Ketogenic Intermittent Fasting 4

5 Acute Versus Chronic Disease Two different worlds Acute: Give medicine Disease Solved Chronic Long term Find real cause Stop treating symptoms instead of cause Causation: After years, body cannot adjust 5

6 Leading Causes of Death Heart Disease: 614K (192.7 per 100,000, 23.4%) Cancer: 592K (185.6 per 100,000, 22.5%) Chronic Lower Respiratory Diseases: 141K (46.1 per 100,000, 5.6%) Accidents (unintentional injuries): 136K (42.7 per 100,000, 5.2%) Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 133K (41.7 per 100,000, 5.1%) Alzheimer's Disease: 94K (29.3 per 100,000, 3.6%) Diabetes: 77K (24.0 per 100,000, 2.9%) Influenza/Pneumonia: 55K (17.3 per 100,000, 2.1%) Kidney Disease: 48K (15.1 per 100,000, 1.8%) Suicide: 43K (13.4 per 100,000, 1.6%) Iatrogenic: > 250, ,000 ( (

9 Blood Tests Cause or Indicator Total Cholesterol LDL - HDL - VLDL - apoa, apob Triglyceride HbA1c ALT, AST, GGT, Bilirubin (Liver Function) hscrp (Inflammation) 25HydroxyD???????????? Whaaaat 9

10 Metabolic Syndrome (Mayhem) Cause or Indication Low HDL : <40mg/dL High Blood Triglycerides: > 100mg/dL Abdominal Circumference: Waist >35 (F), 40 (M) Waist/Height Ratio <0.5 Elevated Blood Pressure: >140/90 mm Hg High Blood Sugar: 130mg/dL 10

11 Insulin Resistance (Metabolic) Obesity Gout Cancer Stroke Alzheimer s Fatty Liver Disease Asthma Arthritis Etc., etc. Syndrome Results Atherosclerosis Coronary Heat Disease Type 2 Diabetes 11

12 Insulin Resistance Insulin is a normal hormone produced when we eat. Its job is to allow glucose into the cells. When it is no longer able to do it, glucose piles up outside the cell in the blood, and it is called insulin resistance. Your body then begins to rot. Diabetes, Coronary Heart Disease, Hypertension, Stroke, Cancer, Parkinson s, Alzheimer s, Depression, Anxiety Disorders, Lou Gehrig s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Arthritis, even Autism Mortality, Morbidity and Quality of Life benefit from a proactive control of insulin Autopsy proves this. Just a little late. Something living?

13 Causes of (Chronic Conditions) Diet Stress Sleep deprivation Lack of physical activity Lack of exposure to sun - Vitamin D deficiency Infections Environmental Insulin Resistance 13

14 Medicine of Etiology not Symptomatology Genetics are not our destiny Our genes load the gun it is our environment that pulls the trigger Factors determine how your genes will be expressed Personalized medicine Take back control and educate ourselves Medicine of Etiology not Symptomatology 14

15 Can Chronic Diseases Be Cured? Ref: Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, TED X 15

16 Treat Cause of Chronic Disease Engineering approach Root Causes Metabolic Changes Treat symptoms along the way to real repair Live with what s left 16

17 Diabetes Diabetes Mellitus Type 1, Type 2 (T2D) Type 3

18 Types of Diabetes Type 1 (I) Insulin production deficiency Wasting Disease 10% American Population (~700,000) Type 2 (II) Insulin resistance at cellular level Overflow Disease 90% American Population (6,000,000) Type 3 (III) Altheimer s Dementia

19 Causes of Type 1 Diabetes Usually develops due to an autoimmune disorder Immune dysfunction Islet cells of the pancreas damaged - Little or no insulin production Body can not take in nutrients without insulin Diabetes becomes a wasting disease Why this autoimmune diabetes develops? Genetic tendency Viral infection such as mumps, rubella, cytomegalovirus, measles, influenza, encephalitis, polio or Epstein-Barr virus Genetically prone? Other less common ( very rare) causes include Injury to the pancreas from toxins, trauma After the surgical removal of the majority (or all) of the pancreas.

20 Treatment of Type 1 Diabetes Self Blood Glucose Monitoring (SBGM) Medications Insulin production Cell receptor sensitivity Exercise Reduce Inflammation Nutritionally control insulin requirements

21 Type 3 Diabetes Alzheimer s disease Toxic protein ADDL removes insulin receptors from nerve cells (amyloid B-derived diffusible ligand) Ask: What were the root causes? Reverse cognitive deficiency by treating each individual cause Follows insulin resistance Professor Bredesen - San Francisco Unique Treatment for Alzheimer's 21

22 Long Term Results of Diabetes Loss of Vision Kidney Malfunction Stroke Loss of Limbs Heart Disease

23 Type 2 Diabetes & CHD Diabetes - Major cause of Coronary Heart Disease Deaths from CHD outweigh all other diabetes long term problems combined Since diabetes is a CHRONIC disease: Find the cause Apply the solution Treat what symptoms are left 23

24 Primary Causes (Drivers) What Do I Do? Excessive Sugar Intake: Excessive Carbohydrates (sugar): Omega 6:3 ratio. Should be 2:1 (6:3) Sedentary Lifestyle (Pedometer:<3,000/day) Vitamin D deficiency (25 Hydroxy D) Vitamin K2, C, glutathione deficiency (Spectracel) Magnesium Deficiency Smoking Stress 24

25 Type 1 Versus Type 2 Diabetes Completely different mechanisms, causes, biological principles Opposite Body Responses Type 1 - Wasting disease Type 2 - Overflow disease Causes are different - Solutions must be different Metabolic changes versus pharmacological intervention 25

27 Video Presentation Jason Fung, MD Reverse Type 2 Diabetes Jason Fung, MD A New Paradigm of Insulin Resistance Low Carb Breckenridge Dr. Jason Fung is a Canadian nephrologist. He's a world-leading expert on Intermittent Fasting and Low Carbohydrate High Fat (LCHF), especially for treating people with type 2 diabetes. 27

28 Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Insulin Monitoring Self Blood Glucose Monitoring (SBGM) REDUCE INSULIN SENSITIVITY If the problem is excess insulin responses, stop putting in carbohydrates and proteins requiring insulin responses. LCHF: Low Carb < g/day High (Healthy Fats) 70-80% calories Adequate Protein 1g/kg (.5g/lb) LBM Intermittent Fasting Exercise

29 Multiple Metabolic Approaches Low Fat - High Carbs - Protein Every 5% of fat intake replaced by carbs causes a 7% increase in Coronary Heart Disease Reduce refined carbs Intermittent Fasting LCHF Ketogenic LCHF with Fasting/Eating Cycles Longer Term Intermittent Fasting Gastric Bypass, etc. 29
