Diabetes on the Rise! Is There a Permanent Cure?

When I was a growing up in the 1960's, I never recalled knowing of anyone who had diabetes. But now that has changed. By 1980 5.6 million people in the United States had diabetes. I cannot number how many individuals I know personally today, or hear in the news, or read in a obituary, or someone mentioned in a casual conversation who had died due to complications to diabetes. By 2009 that number had soared to 23.6 million in this country or 8% of the population, who now have diabetes according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

In this day and time diabetes is considered by many in the medical community to be an epidemic? So what is behind the rise of Diabetes? And is there a permanent cure to this disease?

According to the American Diabetes Association, diabetes was discovered in the early 19th century. Which brings to mind a very interesting question: What did the medical community back then learn about this disease and how did they deal with it in their treatment? You will find the answer somewhat fascinating!

Throughout the years, thousands of books and articles have been written on this one medical topic-involving its health care and fitness. Since some in my own family are diabetic, I have read many writings. Maybe you have also. But there is one that I think you will find most interesting-rather you are diabetic, or know of someone who is. This book is called DIABETES ITS CAUSE AND PERMANENT CURE, and I've never read anything like it. Did you notice the words permanent cure? It was written in 1889 by a M.D. name Emil Schnee-a German born physician who eventually relocated to Carlsbad here in the United States.

Emil Schnee was one of many doctors involved in an intense study and investigation through out Europe, Canada, and the United States on a fairly new disease.

What did their research and study reveal back then as to the rise of diabetes to a pandemic level today? What did they know?

Why did they feel that not only did they understood the cause of diabetes but treated it as a CURE? Schnee himself was successful in the cure of 53 patients using only 19th century techniques, involving male and female ranging in all ages.

Can Dr. Schnee research and expertise be of value today? Can his contribution to his work on diabetes along with that of his colleagues get the exposure that is needed for any present day break-through for this disease? Only time will tell if the content of this fascinating publication can produce perhaps a surprising bit of information that could be vital in our modern day fight against diabetes.
