The Nutritarian Basis For Ideal Health

One of the truly serendipitous events of my life occurred several months after we had corrected my wife’s high blood sugar.

We had effectively cured her diabetes through aggressive dietary measures. It was through nutritarian style eating, though we didn’t know enough to call it that.

We met the Jerry Taylor family at church, and invited them over for dinner.

Now, let me explain. We had accomplished something we’d been told by the “best” experts was impossible. We had reason to believe the cure would be long term, as long as we kept up the changes we’d made, and similar benefits would come to anyone who tried this. Every meal was an adventure. We were delighted to confirm new eating habits, leave behind old ones, try new combinations and recipes, and occasionally to share the wonderful things we learned.

We have done this before and since, invited people over and shared this, including some in dire need of this information. Usually our efforts to explain are met with polite disregard, not much real interest.

Dr. Jerry Taylor, Montana

This time though, our story was met with unabashed, raging enthusiasm. You see, they had experienced the same type healing experience of an "incurable" condition through nutrition in their family.

Not only that, but Dr. Taylor had just graduated with a naturopathic MD degree, and came to Montana to heal diabetes in one of the many native American communities critically needing such a thing.

(Note: I’m using the word “heal” and “cure” guardedly, as it’s a controversial thing. “Heal” and “cure” when used with “diabetes” is a politically incorrect, as it is with the word “autism” which was the Taylor family’s experience. The standard medical community does not believe in and does not support that “cures” can regularly ((or even ever)) happen with such difficult chronic illness. After all, if such things could be healed, doctors would be doing it, right? And by and large they don’t.)

Self perpetuating ignorance, not necessarily willful or knowing, but as it's associated with lies and death, certainly evil of a real sort.

The one thing, though, exciting me more than anything was he recommended every single one of his patients read The China Study. This book was a foundation of healing my wife’s diabetes.

And my wife is healed in large part because the evidence outlined in The China Study is so powerful, so compelling, so well researched and validated, we understood and believed it was possible.

Our hope turned into knowledge, certainty and reality regarding Annette's diabetes.

And it's why I thought there were real reasons to hope after a second, inoperable, likely soon to be fatal episode of coronary artery disease, caused by a blockage in my "Widow Maker" artery.
