Karly and Kelsy are identical twins that have been living with Type 1 diabetes for over 14 years. Diagnosed at the age of two, they received at least six "finger pokes" to test their blood sugar and at least four insulin shots each day. This routine continued until Karly and Kelsy received their first insulin pumps in the third grade. These devices continually deliver small quantities of insulin to the girls' bodies, and thus provides them with a lot of flexibility when it comes to when they eat and how often they are required to test their blood sugar. While the girls' insulin pumps have allowed them to lead a more normal life, the reality is that they will spend the rest of their lives in a constant balancing act.
As of yet, there is no cure for Type 1 diabetes. We need your help to change that! Our family has decided to participate in the Walk to Cure diabetes this year. We have a goal to raise $2000 to donate to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Please help us reach our goal! All donations are sent directly to JDRF and are tax-deductible.
Thank you! Our family greatly appreciates your support.
Hi, I live by you, you left a flyer on our door. I live at the house with spring water. My name is Nathan, I have been a vegan for 14 years, I hold a BS in Environmental Studies, and I have heard about the benefits of the vegan diet in treating diabetes. I hope to provide information that may help with your struggle with type I diabetes.
ReplyDeleteI heard about the successful treatment of diabetes with a vegan diet specifically from the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine http://PCRM.org/
There is a good book called 'Diet for a New America' by John Robbins heir to the Baskin Robins company which he rejected because of the harmful effects of animal products.
Another book that has been referenced to in some links below is 'The China Study' I have not yet had the chance to read it but I understand that it makes a comparative study between the health and diets of china and the U.S.. From what I understand it discusses the link to animal products and diabetes (Maybe including type I, I am going to buy the book today to do more research on it.)

During the first year,I had faith in God that i would be healed someday.This disease started circulating all over my body and i have been taking treatment from my doctor, few weeks ago i came on search on the Internet if i could get any information concerning the prevention of this disease, on my search i saw a testimony of someone who has been healed from (Hepatitis B and Cancer) by this Man Dr VOKE and she also gave the email address of this man and advise we should contact him for any sickness that he would be of help, so i wrote to Dr. VOKE telling him about my (DIABETES) he told me not to worry that i was going to be cured!! hmm i never believed it,, well after all the procedures and remedy given to me by this man few weeks later i started experiencing changes all over me as the Dr assured me that i have cured,after some time i went to my doctor to confirmed if i have be finally healed behold it was TRUE, So friends my advise is if you have such sickness or any other at all you can email Dr VOKE (doctorvoke@gmail.com) or text him +1(661)-797-0921
