Introduction
Before you begin, the most important point we need to stress is the power of
proper nutrition. The food you eat; or better yet, not eat plays a much more
essential role in reversing your diabetes than any drugs or fancy diets your
doctor may prescribe you.
There are no shortcuts, no magic pills and no magic powders. The only thing
you need to do to is change the things you eat.
What many doctors and other health specialists practicing mainstream
medicine don't realize is how important nutrition is to good health. How could
they? Doctors barely get 6 hours of nutrition education for every year they are
in medical school.
Doctors aren't being trained to help you; they are trained to become glorified
prescription drug dispensers. And since the multibillion dollar pharmaceutical
companies are the ones sponsoring and writing curriculum for medical
schools, nothing is going to change anytime soon.
And this big pharma influence doesn't stop in medical school; pharmaceutical
companies legally bribe doctors to prescribe you more drugs. Many doctors get
kickbacks from drug companies for every drug they prescribe or certain brand
of insulin meter they recommend to you.
The entire medical system is made to keep you hooked on drugs for life while
lining the greedy pockets of pharmaceutical companies. Nobody wants to cure
you or make you get better. Everything is made to keep you as sick as
possible, thereby guaranteeing profits to them for life.
Sounds grim? Well it is. Think about it. If your diabetes goes away, they lose a
customer. They can't sell you any more insulin pumps, glucose meters or
monthly drug refills. That's tens of thousands of dollars lost from every
patient. This is why they have absolutely no intention of helping you get
better. If they were actually in the health business, they'd be putting
themselves out of business.
We couldn't just sit there and watch so many diabetics suffer and struggle
their entire lives, which is why we wrote this book. In this book we cover the
many aspects of proper nutrition and how it relates to perfect health.
Countless scientific studies over the years have shown that proper nutrition is

TheICTM.org
many times more effective than most drugs and pills at reversing, curing and
eliminating disease.
We think you deserve to know the truth regarding our medical system, food
and drug system, and health policy.We think you deserve to know what is
being done and not being done to keep you sick and unhappy, and we want to
shed some light on what is actually important and what actually matters. You
deserve to know that the most common notions you have been told about the
food you eat, and about health and disease are wrong:
• Hoping that drug manufacturers or genetic research is eventually
going to discover the miracle pill to “cure” any disease is ignoring the
decades of scientific studies and research that already proves how
disease can be reversed and prevented with diet alone.
• Chemicals in the environment, as bad as they might be, as well as
your “predisposition” to disease are not the main causes of most
illnesses.
• The genes that you inherit from your parents are not the most
important factors that will determine whether you will suffer from
any illnesses or diseases.
• Controlling any one aspect of your diet, for example carbohydrates,
fats, protein, or any one nutrient is not going to lead to any strong
improvement in your health.
• Drugs and surgery DO NOT cure the diseases that kill most people
today.
• Most likely, you doctor has absolutely no idea what you need to do to
be the healthiest that you can be.
The health industry, just like any
other industry, is just that; an
industry. And the sole purpose of any
giant mainstream industry is to
increase profits. How does the health
industry make money? They need more
and more unhealthy people each year
who will buy their products. What
would happen if people became
healthy, and happy? That’s right, the
whole industry would collapse
overnight, and all their billion dollar
profits would disappear.
