90% of type-2 diabetes cases develop after significant fat is gained in the omentum located in the abdomen. This creates insulin resistance effectively ‘gumming-up’ pores in body cells preventing sugar from being absorbed from the blood. As blood sugars rise the pancreas works harder by making more insulin. Years of stress and overwork causes the pancreas to fail prematurely leading to insulin fatigue and diabetes.

Because doctors …
Because doctors make boatloads of money selling unneeded drugs and procedures. I know, I had a grandfather–a WWII veteran–die of diabetes. It is a horrible disease and they did nothing but prescribe pills and procedures to him, never once telling him to lose weight.

You’re not proving …
You’re not proving that ab fat CAUSES insulin resistance. You’re just observing that a lot of people have both at the same time. Do some slim persons with hardly any ab fat also have diabetes? Could it be that ab fat and diabetes are BOTH symptoms of too much carb? Please prove your point. I’m not trying to debate. I’m here to learn. And thanks for the video.

Thanks for making this video. I wonder why our doctor doesn’t stress lossing weight to get rid of this disease for my dad who have diabetes for over 10 years?

Yes, abdominal fat …
Yes, abdominal fat in particular is linked to insulin resistance. It’s this resistance to the action of insulin that forces your pancreas to work harder to normalize sugar in the blood. An overworked pancreas leads to insulin fatigue. At this point not only has insulin lost its effectiveness, but the body is making less insulin. This is the primary course that leads to type-2 diabetes.

Posterior pituitary …
Posterior pituitary gland supplementation will also reduce blood sugar values in type 2 diabetics. A deficient posterior pituitary gland is the cause of the belly fat. This is a classic sign. Unfortunately posterior pituitary is seldom used in medicine. I have taken it for almost 40 years.

One of the classic …
One of the classic signs of posterior pituitary gland deficiency is a pot belly. All type 2 diabetics have some degree of posterior pituitary gland deficiency.

Thanks for the simplicity of this complex info! This is the first I’ve heard of “Insulin Fatigue” but it all makes sense now… Well at least- more sense than it did 5 minutes ago. Thanks!
