A Hypoglycemia Cure? (Secret: The Liver)
http://brixman.com/REAMS/hypoglycemia.htm
DR. REAMS: The true cause of hypoglycemia is a liver malfunction. In hypoglycemia, the liver malfunction affects you in several ways. To begin with, the liver is supposed to stabilize your blood
Sugar in several different ways: by storing
Sugar when there's too much and releasing it when more is needed; by maintaining the right chemical balance for insulin---which is essential for proper maintenance of blood
Sugar levels; and by regulating the production of insulin by the pancreas.
In hypoglycemia, the liver fails to properly convert excess sugar into reserve sugar, called glycogen. Because of this the liver doesn't have enough reserve sugar to release when it's needed. Moreover, the liver frequently allows the chemical balance of the blood to become too alkaline. This sharply increases the potency of the body's insulin, which in turn then drives blood sugar levels down abnormally low. In other cases, the liver allows the blood to become too acidic.
This increases insulin's potency, allowing the blood sugar to go too high. If you were healthy, your body would adjust the blood sugar back to normal. But when you're hypoglycemic, your body overreacts and forces the blood sugar below normal. So in either case, an improper chemical balance in the blood-caused by a malfunctioning liver allows blood sugar levels to go below normal. In addition, when the liver malfunctions it fails to detoxify and remove various waste products from the body. These build up in the blood and also interfere with insulin's ability to control blood sugar levels. Finally, when the liver malfunctions it allows the pancreas to produce too much insulin---which causes low blood sugar. This is the main reason for hypoglycemia.
DR. REAMS: The program we recommend cures hypoglycemia in most cases. The secret is to correct the problem---liver malfunction---rather than to treat the symptom---low blood sugar. To correct the liver malfunction, we use the lemon water fast. The lemon
Water Fast produces a rapid improvement in liver function. It also rejuvenates and detoxifies the body.
As the body is detoxified and rebuilt, many hypoglycemics experience a "healing crisis" similar to what drug addicts go through in "withdrawal." Nausea, vomiting and blackouts often occur. Vomiting is just one of the means by which the body rids itself of the poisons accumulated over the years. The blackouts occur, paradoxically, because the body is getting well so rapidly. What happens is that the liver begins to produce many previously lacking enzymes which are needed by the pancreas.
When the pancreas suddenly receives this wealth of enzymes, it overreacts and for a short time produces too much insulin. This drives the blood sugar down too low and can cause a blackout. It's unfortunate, but it is part of the natural healing process. Because the lemon
Water Fast is so powerful, I want to warn all that no person should undertake this fast unless he or she first takes the urine test. Only then can one tell whether it is safe for them to do it without supervision.
