Diabetes Wheat Link

I was browsing some files on health related to carbohydrate, saturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, insulin and came across a possible link between wheat and diabetes. This was from a site focusing on a low carbohydrate, low sugar (remember sugar is just an extremely simple carbohydrate) and moderate saturated fat, nil seed oil diet for good health.

 

They where talking about how insulin locks onto an insulin receptor on the cell and then they had a wheat or gluten protein or byproduct that locked into the insulin receptor site and that blocked insulin from then locking ito the insulin receptor on the cell. This means insulin no longer works for that cell, a condition called insulin resistance.

 

There has been three changes to the diet that may be acting together or alone causing ill health:

    Increase in carbohydrates in general mainly from wheat. Gluten enhanced wheat?

    Refined forms of sugar, the more simple the worse it is. (Causing Insulin pendulum high then low blood sugar)

    Replacement of saturated fats with seed oils (body produces eicosanoids from the omega 6 in the oil and these chemicals are linked with allergies, arthritis, cancer, inflammation, immune system problems,  heart disease, stroke. Asprin and many similar drugs for example work by blocking eicosanoids)

 

 

 

Food for thought.

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
