POPSImagine world without suffering... ...And this world is just step away. Away from killing. Animal, birds, fish... whoever we (most of us now) are eating. God (Mother Nature, Karma, whatever it is) not forgiving us for breaking its rules to live in harmony with surrounding world and punishing us for our ignorance. If only diabetes! Whole metabolic syndrome with depressions and host of mood disorders, disfiguring obesity, heart failure as direct result. Everything starting from what we putting in our mouths. Far from everything what we can chew and swallow can be good for your body! Watch what you eating and drinking! Educate yourself. You will be terrified what we doing now and inevitably come to the vegan lifestyle, where is no place for cruelty, diseases, tricks and sufferings.

POPSFast Food Industry’s 7 Most Heinous Concoctions The American fast food industry, in its attempt to survive at the expense of our health, has come up with some creative gastronomical mashups that not only play on our weakness for artery-hardening, sugar-saturated, taste-bud tantalizers but also keeps the U.S. health care system fat with wasted spending. The best way to ‘reform’ this country’s health care system is to stop feeding it with our extremely unhealthy diets and sedentary lifestyles that leads to heart disease, cancer, stroke, COPD, diabetes, etc. We like the convenience of fast food, but we can force fast food chains to come up with healthier fare by educating ourselves on what a healthy diet actually consists of, and what it doesn’t. Trust me, a healthy diet is not offered at fast food restaurants. Education and a desire to live a longer healthier life is key.

POPSThe Seven Most Dangerous Ingredients in Conventional Foods 3) Excitotoxins -- aspartame, monosodium glutamate and others (see below). These neurotoxic chemical additives directly harm nerve cells, over-exciting them to the point of cell death, according to Dr. Russell Blaylock. They're found in diet soda, canned soup, salad dressing, breakfast sausage and even many manufactured vegetarian foods. They're used to add flavor to over-processed, boring foods that have had the life cooked out of them.

POPSSurgical Strike: Surgeons' Group Blasts Obama
(Applause.) Nothing against surgeons. I want surgeons -- I don't want to be getting a bunch of letters from surgeons now. I'm not dissing surgeons here. (Laughter.) He probably wasn't going to get many letters at that point, but in his next statement, he guaranteed a groundswell of well-deserved outrage: All I'm saying is let's take the example of something like diabetes, one of --- a disease that's skyrocketing, partly because of obesity, partly because it's not treated as effectively as it could be. Right now if we paid a family -- if a family care physician works with his or her patient to help them lose weight, modify diet, monitors whether they're taking their medications in a timely fashion, they might get reimbursed a pittance. But if that same diabetic ends up getting their foot amputated, that's $30,000, $40,000, $50,000 -- immediately the surgeon is reimbursed. Well, why not make sure that we're also reimbursing the care that prevents

People with many health conditions, including diabetes, need to closely monitor their blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose. With this in mind, the American Diabetes Association released its list of diabetes superfoods earlier this week. The list offers 10 foods that have nutrients necessary for good diabetes management, including fiber, potassium, healthy fats, magnesium and antioxidants.

POPS95% Free of Diabetes Symptoms after Surgery The study was done by researchers in the US and was funded by Ethicon Endo-Surgery, a maker of surgical tools. It appeared in the American Journal of Medicine, which is published by a company called Elsevier. If you have type 2 diabetes and are overweight, this study provides hopeful news. But, like all major operations, bariatric surgery does have risks, and it isn't right for everyone. Your doctor will usually consider it only if you are very obese and you have tried to lose weight in other ways. You also need to be generally fit enough to have an operation, and be committed to changing the way you eat, as you'll need to eat much less than you did before the operation ... Guardian
