THE GREAT GLUCOSE DECEPTION (Excerpt from book - DIABETES OR DIE-WITH-EASE )
Who Changed the Diabetes
Diagnosis Range—And Why?
In the world of health, few things
are as dangerously deceptive as the numbers used to diagnose diabetes. At first
glance, they seem scientific, precise, and reliable. A number appears on your
lab report and suddenly, without symptoms, without pain, without any warning,
you are a "diabetic."
But have you ever stopped to
ask: who decided that number?
In 1979, the National Diabetes
Data Group (NDDG) set the diagnostic criterion for diabetes as a glucose
of 200 mg/dL or higher. This range had a clinical rationale: it was
high enough to correlate with symptoms, risk of complications, and abnormal
glucose tolerance.
Yet, in the decades that
followed, that number was quietly lowered — not once, but
multiple times. The most significant shift came in 2010, when
the American Diabetes Association (ADA) released guidelines
that redefined normal, prediabetic, and diabetic glucose levels.
Under this new rubric:
·
Fasting blood sugar (FBS) over
100 mg/dL was prediabetic.
·
Postprandial glucose (PPG) over
140 mg/dL was cause for concern.
·
HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin)
over 5.6% signified prediabetes or diabetes.
And just like that, millions
of healthy people became patients overnight.
But why? What was the scientific
justification?
Here's the uncomfortable truth: there
wasn’t any solid science to justify this sudden tightening of diagnostic
parameters. There was no global epidemic of sudden diabetic collapse
that demanded more aggressive cutoffs. Instead, there was an invisible epidemic
of something else: profit hunger.
The lowering of the glucose
threshold was not a decision based on pathology or a better understanding of
human physiology. It was a calculated strategy driven by the
pharmaceutical-industrial complex.
You see, the lower the
threshold, the larger the patient base. It's not a mistake that the
very organizations pushing these new diagnostic standards had strong financial
ties to the companies that stood to benefit from a larger diabetic population.
The Conspiracy to Create
More Customers
Let us consider this: If the
fasting threshold is set to 100 mg/dL, the postprandial at 140 mg/dL, and the
HbA1c at 5.6%, you’re almost guaranteed to "fail" at least one of
them.
Let us suppose you eat lunch and
two hours later your blood sugar is 145 mg/dL. Congratulations: you now qualify
as diabetic, despite feeling completely healthy and symptom-free.
Let us suppose your fasting
blood sugar is 101 mg/dL one morning due to stress, poor sleep, or a late
dinner the night before. Boom: you're now prediabetic.
What does the doctor tell you?
·
Avoid fruit.
·
Take Metformin.
·
Prepare to be medicated for life.
They won’t ask about your stress
levels, your diet, your sleep, or your mental health. They will push pills —
because the machine behind the system is designed not to cure
you, but to capture you.
This is why this chapter is
titled "The Great Glucose Deception". Because it's
not just a numerical manipulation. It's a medical trap that
turns health into disease, well-being into worry, and patients into permanent
customers.
Now imagine the impact of such
guidelines on a global scale. As nations begin to adopt ADA-approved standards,
entire populations suddenly find themselves reclassified as ill.
From Asia to Africa to Latin America, millions of people who once considered
themselves healthy are now terrified into lifelong medication.
This is not public health.
This is public
manipulation.
Fasting vs. Postprandial
Sugar: The Double-Edged Sword of Diagnosis
The genius (or cruelty) of the
system lies in this: if you manage to pass one test, there are always two more
to trap you.
You may have a normal fasting
glucose. But your postprandial may rise due to a rich meal. Or maybe your HbA1c
is slightly elevated due to poor sleep or temporary inflammation. Either way,
they get you.
Let us break it down:
·
Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS):
Measured after 8 hours of no food. But who sleeps perfectly every night? Who
doesn't eat late sometimes? Who isn’t stressed or hormonally imbalanced
occasionally? A slight rise in morning sugar is often a natural, adaptive
response of the body.
·
Postprandial Glucose (PPG):
Measured two hours after a meal. But what you eat, how fast you digest, and
even your gut bacteria influence this. Fruits can raise it temporarily but in a
healthy way. Yet the system doesn't differentiate between a spike from white
bread or watermelon.
·
HbA1c: A three-month average of
blood sugar. But this test is influenced by age, anemia, ethnicity,
hydration, and even altitude. It's not an absolute measure. But it has
become the gold standard for determining who should be drugged.
The 2010 ADA guidelines used all
three of these “metrics” to create a diagnostic net so wide that nearly
everyone falls into it. And once inside, it's hard to get out.
Because from the first visit,
the language is already disempowering:
·
"There is no cure."
·
"This is for life."
·
"Stop eating fruits."
·
"Take this medicine, and come back in a
month."
And what happens after a month?
Most likely, the numbers haven't
improved — because no one addressed the root cause. The doctor increases the
dose or adds another pill. And the cycle begins: medication, side effects, more
medication, more damage.
It is not uncommon for a
diabetic patient to eventually suffer from:
·
High blood pressure
·
Kidney dysfunction
·
Liver enlargement
·
Nerve damage
·
Poor wound healing
·
Vision loss
·
Depression
But the irony is brutal. These
complications are not caused by diabetes alone. They are also caused — and
accelerated — by the very medications meant to manage it.
The Real Solution They
Don’t Want You to Know
You might wonder, what then is
the solution? Can diabetes really be reversed?
The answer is not just yes — it
is a resounding, evidence-backed YES.
Across the world, thousands of individuals
have reversed diabetes by doing the exact opposite of what the mainstream
medical system suggests:
·
Eating whole, plant-based foods rich in fiber
and nutrients.
·
Consuming fresh fruits without fear.
·
Walking or exercising daily.
·
Sleeping well.
·
Managing stress naturally.
These are not abstract theories.
These are lived realities. Real people. Real healing. No medicine required.
But when they speak out, they
are called frauds. Their doctors dismiss them. Health authorities ignore them.
And if a professional dares to advocate this, they are often silenced,
ridiculed, or threatened with loss of license.
Why? Because curing diabetes
naturally dismantles an industry worth billions.
Conclusion: Wake Up to
the Numbers Game
The normal blood glucose range
wasn’t changed because you got sicker. It was changed so you could be
classified as sick.
By lowering the bar of what is
considered "diabetic," the health authorities expanded their market
exponentially. And in doing so, they condemned millions to a life of
medication, fear, and unnecessary suffering.
But now you know the game. You
see the chessboard.
You understand that the phrase
"Diabetes or Die-with-Ease" is not a joke. It is a truthful
choice. You can believe in the numbers and follow the pills to your
slow demise. Or you can reclaim your health through lifestyle, diet, and
conscious living.
This chapter has only scratched
the surface. In the next chapter, we will go even deeper into how
pharmaceutical giants manipulate not just numbers, but narratives,
education, and media, to keep the lie alive.
Because diabetes was never your
enemy.
The system that profits
from your fear is.
