Beta-blocker drugs causes type 2 diabetes
Corruption, Latest news, World news Tuesday, May 10th, 2011A 2008 study published in the Nutrition Journal found that by just having high blood pressure more than doubles your risk of developing type 2 diabetes!. The link between high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes is beta-blocker drugs. The study discovered that the mechanisms by which beta-blockers contribute to the development of diabetes include weight gain, attenuation of the beta-receptor-mediated release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells, and decreased blood flow through the microcirculation in skeletal-muscle tissue, leading to decreased insulin sensitivity.
In another study published in The Lancet (December 18, 1999) , 45 people with high blood pressure (hypertension) had their levels fall by about 9.1% after consuming a 500-milligram supplement of vitamin C each day for a month. The benefits of Vitamin C not only helps lower high blood pressure it eliminates the need for beta-blocker drugs that actually triggers another debilitating disease called Type 2 diabetes. Imagine how many people could be helped by simply including adequate amounts of vitamin C in their diet! The benefits of Vitamin C not only contributes to lower blood pressure and reduces the chance of type 2 diabetes it also saves you thousands of dollars in medical and drug costs.
In clinical studies the numbers (top and bottom) in blood pressure readings are inversely associated with ascorbic acid levels (vitamin C). The study showed that women with the highest levels of ascorbic acid had a decline of about 4.6 mm Hg in systolic and just over 6 mm Hg in diastolic blood pressure, compared to women with the lowest ascorbic acid levels.
Vitamin C, is a potent antioxidant, which lowers blood pressure by protecting the body’s supply of nitric oxide. Nitric oxide relaxes blood vessels, contributing to healthy blood pressure levels. Studies have also shown that vitamin C helps protect against cancers, heart disease, influenza and a number of other ailments when consumed as part of a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
The reason the study found that high blood pressure doubled a person’s risk of diabetes is that the same thing that causes type 2 diabetes causes most high blood pressure problems.
This “strongly suggests that vitamin C is specifically important in maintaining a healthy blood pressure,” ~ lead author Dr. Gladys Block of the University of California, Berkeley. Further analyses of vitamin C and blood pressure changes “also strongly suggested that the people with the highest blood level of vitamin C had the least increase in blood pressure.”
With heart disease being the leading cause of death in both men and women in the United States and with close to 50 million Americans having high blood pressure, and 18.2 million people — 6.3% of the population — having diabetes these studies provide a wealth of insight and a direction for us to practice to regain health and without the nasty side effects and high costs associated with the high blood pressure and diabetes drugs!
If you have diabetes look over your medication prescribed by your family physician. Is Vitamin C included? Most likely not and never will be. Why not if it helps lower high blood pressure and prevent type 2 diabetes? The answer is money. The drug companies are in the business to make money. They are not in the business to heal you and most definitely not in it to cure the World of disease.
Today, family physicians around the World are no longer healers, they are the pharmaceutical companies’ drug pushers. They are encouraged to push untested and very toxic and lethal drugs. What motivates family physicians into pushing drugs for the pharmaceutical drug companies? If a physician keeps you and I sick or makes us sicker by prescribing beta-blocker drugs (drugs that have been shown to cause type 2 diabetes), they stay in business. To the drug companies diabetes and high blood pressure patients are lifers. They are unnecessarily made into life time drug abusers when they are told by their family physician that they will need drugs to control (not cure) their diabetes and high blood pressure or suffer horrific pain, discomfort or even lose ones eye sight or limbs ( the scare tactic used by all physician to keep their patients hooked on diabetic drugs).
If our family physicians were to add Vitamin C to our high blood pressure treatment you and I would be essentially cured of high blood pressure and because we wouldn’t need beta-blocker drugs we would never have diabetes. Instead they purposely exclude Vitamin C supplementation and push the toxic, deadly and very expensive pharmaceutical drugs. Once they put you on drugs they make every effort to get you hooked on them, for life.
