The Medical Paradigm Has It All WRONG! Type 2 Diabetes is an INSULIN Problem, not a Glucose Problem

For the last 100 years, the medical paradigm has been incorrectly committed to the focus on glucose, and not on insulin when it comes to type 2 diabetes.

Historically, the cause of type 2 diabetes (insulin resistance) has been lumped into the diabetes mellitus family of diseases. However, this conventional understanding of type 2 diabetes is being challenged by Dr. Benjamin Bikman, a leading expert in the field of metabolic disorders and insulin resistance.

In the below video, Dr. Bikman explains that type 2 diabetes is not a glucose problem but an insulin problem, where the body produces too much insulin, and the cells become resistant to its effects. While type 2 diabetes is often portrayed as a disease where the pancreas has burned out and the body doesn't produce enough insulin, this is not entirely true.

Dr. Bikman argues that while some type 2 diabetics may have lost some insulin-producing beta cells, research suggests that they can be reversed through beta cell reversal. This phenomenon is not like type 1 diabetes, where the immune system is constantly destroying the beta cells. Instead, in type 2 diabetes, the beta cells have just stopped working. However, they can come back to life as needed.

Dr. Bikman further explains that insulin therapy may temporarily lower glucose levels in type 2 diabetics but makes the patient fatter and sicker. When we give a type 2 diabetic insulin therapy, they become three times more likely to die from heart disease and twice as likely to die from cancer. They also typically gain about 20 pounds in the first six months of insulin therapy.

While type 2 diabetes is often referred to as a glucose disease, it's not just a glucose disease; it's a disease of hyperinsulinemia. Initially, a type 2 diabetic will have a modest level of insulin, like a healthy insulin-sensitive person. However, over time, their insulin levels start to climb due to their diet. As a result, their body becomes more resistant to insulin, and even though their insulin levels are now multiples higher than they were before, their insulin is not working as well. But, it's still working well enough to keep glucose normal.

The problem with the conventional understanding of type 2 diabetes is that clinicians often focus on lowering glucose levels in type 2 diabetics, without considering the negative effects of increasing insulin levels through insulin secretagogue medications or exogenous insulin therapy. Giving a type 2 diabetic insulin therapy is like trying to help an alcoholic by giving them another glass of wine. You're giving them more of the very substance that caused the problem. The clinician often has no regard for the insulin and will just be looking at the glucose. This is a moment of true scientific and biomedical tragedy.

Dr. Bikman's challenges the conventional understanding of type 2 diabetes and calls for a shift towards a more comprehensive approach that considers both glucose and insulin levels. He believes that it's time to focus on insulin as the root cause of type 2 diabetes and urges clinicians to take a more holistic approach to treating and managing this chronic disease.

In conclusion, type 2 diabetes is not just a glucose problem; it's an insulin problem. Dr. Bikman's research and insights are challenging the conventional medical paradigm and calling for a more comprehensive approach to treating and managing type 2 diabetes. It's time to shift our focus towards insulin and take a more holistic approach to tackling this chronic disease.
