All drugs carry the risk of side effects, which is a well-known fact of health and wellness. <\/p>\nAll drugs carry the risk of side effects, which is a well-known fact of health and wellness. <\/p>\n
This is what drives many to reject the message when their doctors try to push pharmaceuticals as a method to manage chronic diseases instead of natural alternatives.<\/p>\n
New research shows exactly how scary this can be, though. It revealed how insulin, which is supposed to help type 2 diabetes, can actually has the opposite effect and cause deadly side effects. <\/p>\n
Researchers in Shanghai recently discovered that a startling new reason to demand natural ways to cure type 2 diabetes (and not just \u201cmanage it\u201d with medications) is critical.<\/p>\n
The researchers looked at health markers for over 8,500 patients who had type 2 diabetes. About 1\/3 of the patients were using insulin therapy to manage their disease and the other 2\/3 were not.<\/p>\n
What they found was nothing short of alarming: Even though all the patients carried the same general risk of cancer (about 75 in 10,000), the insulin therapy group had a much higher risk of developing liver cancer specifically. <\/p>\n
And by much higher we mean 186% higher than the non-insulin group. When looking at mortality risk, i.e. how likely patients are to die prematurely, insulin users were at almost 90% higher total mortality risk. Dying of cancer, specifically, was also worse for the insulin group, who showed an increased tendency of 116%.<\/p>\n
Whether you use insulin to manage your type 2 diabetes or not, it is clear that to mitigate many of these preventable hazards the only permanent solution is to completely reverse the disease.<\/p>\n
