With such proven and easily attainable prevention and natural alternatives, I find it hard to accept that parents are taking such a casual attitude toward their children and diabetes, allowing their own kids to inherit a life of diabetes and possible exposing them to further dangerous pancreas damage, simply because the junk food industry... as my daughter so masterfully expressed it by saying… "they make diabetes taste good."

Purpose Of This Website?
The main focus and purpose for this website is twofold:
- One, to heighten diabetes awareness and
- Second, to motivate, to encourage, exhort, to challenge your logic, to induce into taking action, to..."help our kids draw their future without diabetes."
What Motivated Me To Create This Site?
Last year, I had a brief encounter with diabetes. I was taken to the hospital and diagnosed as a type 1 diabetic. Turns out, I was mis-diagnosed, I was not diabetic after all. However, as time pasted, I became very curious as to how I got diabetes in the first place. I m a health nut, I shouldn't be getting diabetes, type 1 or type 2, so I thought. Boy, was I wrong! Turns out, healthy people are suddenly getting type 1 diabetes at an alarming rate, for no apparent reason experts claim. Click The About Link if you wish to read more about my eye opening incident brush with diabetes.
I hated the idea of diabetes with a passion. What I discover is shared in this website. The most important thing was that THEY do know what is causing diabetes. It is the junk food, the regular food, all restaurant food, health drinks, the so called health food, white sugar in soft drinks, foods you buy at your local grocer, breakfast cereal you feed your kids—all contain High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) a man-made chemical food preserver. As HFCS has risen over the past 30 years, so has diabetes. See Causes of Diabetes for the other root cause Big 4 known causes of diabetes.
But, you can easily, easily prevent diabetes. And you will. My goal, provide primary prevention in children with diabetes.
A Call To Action—Diabetes Epidemic Prevention
I am on a personal mission to help prevent people from getting diabetes Diabetes is truly an unnecessary medical illness.
I'm am also on a mission to reveal the true root causes of diabetes and to help promote natural diabetes treatment to our young children. At every turn I will encourage parents to read health related stories to their children. I will encourage the website visitors diabetes and non-diabetics alike, to eat more organic foods.
There are already thousands of excellent websites covering the more technically correct medical subject of diabetes. I will point you to such sites that benefit our readership and save you time in locating them. This way, I can remain true to my Call To Action diabetes prevention mission.
No Red Alert Warning From The Media?
There is no "red alert" from the mass media, no media blitz about the real cause of diabetes or diabetes prevention programs. This website is my first call to action.
You will encounter this Red Alert symbol throughout the site where appropriate.
Let's not wait on the authorities to alert the public about cow milk or HFCS sweeteners.
Those who are old enough can recall how consumer groups alerted the public about the harmful chemicals and additives laced in tobacco. But, years passed before a simple warning label appeared on a carton of cigarettes, during this time, millions of people got cancer.
You can read more about the comparison of HFCS and tobacco similarities here... HFCS and Tobacco similarities debate, the HFCS debate is what tobacco debate was fifty years ago, during the debate, millions died.
A is for... Alert
If We All Exercised, Type 2 Diabetes Will Be Nonexistent
During my short diabetic ordeal, I learned that most all of type 2 diabetes can live without out insulin injections. Let me phrase this another way, there should be no type 2 diabetics in the world!!! The cause of diabetes is a man-made and self-inflicted, and a life without diabetes is a 100% possible. Their are to many parents that have accepted diabetes as a NORMAL way of living, e must all start a diabetes prevention program.
Introduction To Diabetes Prevention
Diabetes Prevention 360 (Prevention 360). is a health process that promote proper diet, exercise, nutrition and diabetes awareness which in turn can lead to a more illness free lifestyle.
Primarily, diabetes is a chronic disease that affects the pancreas ability to produce a necessary hormone called insulin. Prevention involves you deciding to make a healthy lifestyle change. By importing the Four Corner elements of diet, exercise, nutrition, and awareness will help you reduce the potential of getting diabetes.
The Four Corners Of Diabetes Prevention
During your adult years, you can prevent what is defined in the medical profession as getting a case of onset of type 2 diabetes. How? By means of maintaining a full 360 healthy lifestyle. Start by implementing the Four Corners Of Diabetes Prevention elements—diet, exercise, nutrition, and awareness—mentioned earlier in this introduction. You will slowly but surely start to reduce your dependency on insulin, and in the process avoid further pancreatic related damage and any new problems to other vital organs in your body. This latent and hidden damage is being caused by the animal based insulin medication. You will add months if not years of a better quality of life. You can eventually break the invisible shackle that totally and unnecessary binds you to the pharmaceutical companies.
Why It Is So Important To Start Prevention Now!
Diabetes is one of those under underestimated and casually accepted chronic diseases. Yet, diabetes affects the seemingly anonymous pancreas and the pancreas has the potential to drastically affect every major organ of your body such as the liver, spleen and kidney. Thus, a seemingly once manageable minor diabetes illness, can and do often lead to other serious health issues resulting in more medication and hospital visits.
Strangely enough, a large segment of diabetics seem complacent about their illness. They appear to accept the diabetes disease without any resistance. More hospital visits, more illness is in your distant future if you do not begin a Diabetes Prevention effort and start fighting against diabetes now.
Even if you are not diabetic a 360 Lifestyle is good for you and your children and grand children. This is why it is important to start your prevention program immediately.

Organic False Claims?
Don’t be fooled by deceptive advertising and product labels found in super markets. Grocery stores are aware that more consumers are suddenly becoming educated of various food additives like HFCS so they are now employing an array of deceptive organic sounding terms such as, Natural, Farm Raised etc.
There is only one label that represents true organically grown food products. See the label shown below. If you do not see this USDA Organic label, don't be deceived.
