The Death to Diabetes Wellness Program is very flexible, and has 3 levels of severity, depending on how long you've been diabetic, how many complications you have, your age, and how many medications you're taking. The more sick you are, the more reason that you need to follow the more strict level of the program , i.e. Level 3.
Level 1: This is the base level of the program that most Type 2 diabetics can follow unless they have major complications and other health issues. This level of the program does not require organic foods, but does require 40-60% raw foods, lightly-steamed; raw juicing at least 1-2 times a day; no animal meat; (lean, no skin) some "dead" processed foods (2-3 servings a day); 3-4 meals/snacks a day; blood glucose testing 4-5 times a day; exercise 20-30 minutes a day, 4 times a week; detox at least once every 3-6 months; some emotional support; journaling, record-keeping.
Level 2: This level of the program is for diabetics who may have one or more additional health issues. This level of the program requires some organic foods, 60-70% raw foods, lightly-steamed; raw juicing at least 2-3 times a day; some animal meat; (organic, free-range); some "dead" processed foods (1-2 servings a day); 4-5 meals/snacks a day; blood glucose testing 4-6 times a day; exercise 30-40 minutes a day, 4-5 times a week; detox at least once every 2-3 months; daily emotional support; detailed journaling, record-keeping.
Level 3: This is the most stringent level of the program, reserved for Type 2 diabetics who want to reverse their diabetes in less than 90 days. This level of the program is also for Type 1 diabetics; and, also for Type 2 diabetics who have multiple health problems and take a lot of drugs. Mostly organic foods, 70-95% raw foods, lightly-steamed; raw juicing at least 4-6 times a day; no animal meat; no "dead" processed foods; 4-7 meals/snacks a day; blood glucose testing 4-7 times a day; exercise 50-60 minutes a day, 4-6 times a week; detox at least once every 1-2 months; daily emotional support; detailed journaling, record-keeping.
In general, most diabetics can follow the base Level 1 of the program in most cases. However, if you find yourself struggling or hitting a wall, then, you should move to Level 2. If you still struggle and as long as finances are not a concern, you should move to Level 3 of the program. Once you reach Stage 4, you can dial it down to Level 2 as long as you are able to maintain proper blood glucose stabilization. Once you reach Stage 6, you can dial it down to Level 1, again as long as you are able to maintain proper blood glucose stabilization.
Simply Raw?
The Simply Raw videos have awakened many people to the power of eating raw to help heal their bodies. But, not everyone can eat raw foods every day for the rest of their lives! And, there's more to defeating diabetes than eating raw foods.
The Death to Diabetes Program goes beyond "eating raw" as there are multiple therapies for reversing Type 2 diabetes. Eating raw is one way to address the nutritional component of reversing your diabetes.
Although nutrition is one of the most important components, there are several other wellness components that a diabetic has to address beyond just "eating raw" -- if they truly want to reverse their diabetes permanently.
Some of those wellness components and activities that the Death to Diabetes Program addresses includes the following:
- The other foods can that a diabetic can eat besides "raw"
- How to shop for groceries properly
- How to safely wean off the drugs
- How to buy test strips (for free!)
- How to perform blood glucose testing the right way and without the pain
- How to get your doctor to work for you
- How to detox properly
- How to select nutritional supplements properly and not waste your money on the wrong supplements
- How to use spirituality to fight the stress of being diabetic
- How to deal with your family and friends who judge you for being diabetic, and don't really understand the frustration, fear, and anxiety of being diabetic
- How to juice properly (many diabetics juice the wrong foods!)
- How to make smoothies the right way
- How to build a support system
- How to perform meal planning effortlessly
- How to save money. Diabetes leads many people to bankruptcy and homelessness because of the medical debt created by Western Medicine.
- Please Note: This is unfortunate, but some of our senior clients struggled with going raw. So, we had to provide other options for them in order to reverse their diabetes, i.e. lightly-steamed vegetables, vegetable juicing, green smoothies, detox, etc.
