This week’s post is an excerpt taken from my book, Surviving Cancer. Watch this short video below where I discuss the link between diabetes and cancer. Learn more about Diabetes and Surviving Cancer by reading my books. Now available at Barnes & Noble!
According to the International Diabetes Federation, in 2015 there were 415 million people living with diabetes in the world, and that number will climb to 642 million by the year 2040.
Given that diabetes is considered a serious epidemic now, this statistic means that cancer is likely to follow and become the next epidemic as more and more diabetics develop it.
Type 2 diabetes is considered a problem caused by insulin resistance. I do not believe that humans are evolving to become insulin resistant, just as it is unlikely that humans are evolving to have more gene mutations.
Rather I suggest that Type 2 diabetes is a condition related to the consumption of grains and grain-flour products, which produce the greatest amount of glucose that cancer cells depend on to survive and multiply.
Surviving Cancer
A New Perspective on Why Cancer Happens & Your Key Strategies for a Healthy Life
This book will be an invaluable resource for anyone who has already been diagnosed with cancer localized to a single site of origin and not yet colonized in another part of the body. It is also for anyone who believes they are at risk of cancer due to heredity, lifestyle, working conditions, stress levels, or for any other reason. And finally, this book is especially important for anyone with Type 2 diabetes, a population that is twice as likely to develop certain types of cancer compared to individuals who do not have diabetes.
