Hulda Clark saids, 'It is a parasite, a parasitic infection' Just throwing it out in the atmosphere.

I don't know about a parasite but what Joslin is saying is the virus not only destroys beta cells it also attaches to the insulin receptor. The latter would explain the high insulin resistance in T2s.

Life style, diet, infections (both bacterial and viral), gut microbiota and more cause epigenetic changes, and those changes tend to persist for at least a generation or two. The range of epigenetic changes is just starting to be understood and you will be reading a lot more on this topic in the coming years. Epigenetic changes affect how a cell functions by changing the methylation, acetylation, or phosphorylation of DNA during the transcription phase, thus altering the expression of proteins without changing the underlying DNA. Such changes can have profound effects on the endocrine responses in the human body.

The latter would explain the high insulin resistance in T2s. But it wouldn't explain why losing weight reverses the course of type 2 diabetes and reduces or even eliminates the need for medications. An alternative explanation is that adipogenesis is impaired when fat cells get above a certain size -- www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4344365/ -- and the cell simply can't respond to the insulin stimulus. Then it makes sense that weight loss would reverse type 2 -- the fat cells shrink and become increasingly insulin sensitive.

Then it makes sense that weight loss would reverse type 2 -- the fat cells shrink and become increasingly insulin sensitive. Actually it would if as with other viruses the body fights off the infection. I think Joslin is on to something. When you become more insulin sensitive through exercise you need less insulin. When you cut carbs you need less insulin. If the beta cell damage is not too bad, this reduction in insulin need takes enough stress off the pancreas and allows some beta cell stabilization/regeneration. What we do know is in many cases the diet and walk approach is just not good enough. Then we give them the metformin and hide the issue for a few years as things get worse. However, providing the afrezza along with the diet and exercise should be the standard of care as it will provide the greatest chance of beta cell regeneration. This goes right along with the VDex motto - afrezza first. Its also what Al Mann was seeing in his studies.

Sorry sports ... I won't be in Japan till the 11th ... so I won't be able to cover this summit. Whew!
I'll also be home before I leave Japan ... due to the time difference. Go figure ... I'll be able to get the news on share price before it happens!
