My Reversal Journey
I've learned that type 2 diabetes isn't an inevitable condition; it's often a consequence of over-indulgence. We tend to overeat, consume unhealthy processed foods, and eat at times when our bodies can't properly digest them. This constant strain shows up as a loss of our body's ability to maintain a healthy baseline blood sugar, especially when we first wake up.
The Role of the Liver
The liver is an incredibly resilient organ. It has an amazing ability to repair and heal itself, but it needs our help. While liver detoxes can be beneficial, they're not a magic bullet. If you go back to old habits, your liver will revert to its distressed state.
I learned this firsthand. It took me three months to achieve a normal fasting blood sugar level. But when I relaxed my strict regimen, it only took another three months for my numbers to climb back up. This taught me that sustained change is the only way to truly reverse this condition. It takes a continuous commitment—likely for a couple of years—to fully turn things around and maintain a healthy blood sugar level.
How to Heal Your Liver
Healing the liver is about more than just a low-carb diet. The key is to give it the rest it needs to repair itself. Intermittent fasting is crucial, as is eating light, easily digestible foods. I also found it essential to limit the variety of foods I ate, sticking to simple, nutritious, home-cooked meals. When you stop eating everything at any time of day, you give your liver a break, and it can begin to heal in a matter of days. The best next time that the liver can heal is at night between the hours of 10 and 2 am if we go to bed with empty stomach.
