You may BELIEVE that type 2 diabetes is caused by consuming too much sugar.

Most folks do.

But that’s not ALWAYS true.

And despite the MYTHS perpetuated by the mainstream…

You CAN’T necessarily “fix” diabetes simply by cutting sugar out of your diet… and reducing the amount of glucose in your blood with pills and injections.

Because there are OTHER culprits behind a diabetes diagnosis – ones that NO ONE may be telling you about!

One of the most OVERLOOKED diabetes culprits is toxic exposure.

There’s one toxin in particular that I want to share with you today… which the U.S. Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry ranks as its #1 health hazard.

In one study, folks with the highest levels of it showed 3.6X the odds of also being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

You can’t SEE it… SMELL it… or TASTE it…

So, you might have NO CLUE how much of it you’ve actually been exposed to!

I’ve also got some ways to REDUCE your exposure to this toxin… and even to SWEEP it out of your body!

I’m talking about arsenic.

That’s right – the “king of poisons” and the “poison of kings.”

A new study reveals how arsenic exposure can lead to 2 major hallmarks of type 2 diabetes: glucose intolerance, resulting in higher-than-normal blood sugar levels

insulin resistance.

 

What the researchers found was that when arsenic UNLEASHES oxidative stress… it’s linked to the activation of a protein called NRF2 that spirals out of control.

Now, when NRF2 gets “turned on” and is working normally… it can protect your cells against oxidative stress. But in the case of arsenic exposure, it doesn’t get “turned off.”

And that somehow is associated with excess glucose production in the liver – which confirms what an animal study found in 2014.

Past research has also found that arsenic exposure could also DISRUPT the function of pancreatic beta cells – which explains the REDUCED insulin sensitivity.

Think you could never be POISONED by something as SINISTER as this infamous weapon of assassination? Think again.

If your drinking water comes from a well, it could contain unsafe traces of arsenic because of its proximity to the soil!

And even if you’re drinking from “clean” tap water, lead could be leaching into it from your pipes!

While the EPA limits the amount of arsenic found in the public drinking water supply… unbelievably, the feds DON’T regulate the amount of arsenic found in any solid food product!

That’s a problem – because arsenic too often CONTAMINATES soil in certain farms and fields of grain.

In fact, rice in particular is known as a “sponge” for heavy metals like arsenic. And that could spell bad news for folks who rely on rice as a part of their gluten-free diets… or rice milk for their dairy-free diets.

And there could be A LOT more arsenic in some other foods… like apples… than previously thought. To reduce your exposure to arsenic, you can make some lifestyle tweaks, including…

FILTERING your drinking water using reverse osmosis or distillation (but you may need to remineralize it to replenish essential minerals that have been depleted)

CHOOSING organic crops, which will avoid exposure to arsenic-based herbicides

AVOIDING poultry treated with antibiotics, which often contain arsenic, and

SWITCHING types of rice to a lower-arsenic variety, like from brown rice to basmati.

 

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to ERASE arsenic exposure completely.

The good news is that your body CAN eliminate some of these toxins on its own…

But there are some ways to help it work BETTER.

For instance, spirulina powder or capsules can detoxify and purify your body… while also REDUCING blood sugar and INCREASING insulin sensitivity.

That’s not all…

In one pilot trial, healthy folks who consumed modified citrus pectin saw their excretion of arsenic increased by 130%!

And the results were significant in as little as 24 hours.

A patented version called PectaSol, which has been the subject of NUMEROUS clinical trials and other published studies, can be found in many commercially available supplements from quality makers at your local health food store or online.
