About the Author

John M. Poothullil, MD, FRCP, practiced medicine as a pediatrician and allergist for more than 30 years, 27 of which were in Texas. He received his medical degree from the University of Kerala, India in 1968. He holds certifications from the American Board of Pediatrics and The American Board of Allergy & Immunology. During his medical practice, Dr. Poothullil became interested in understanding the causes of hunger and weight gain. His interest turned into multi-decade research project that guided him to investigate the theory of insulin resistance as it relates to diabetes.

From the Back Cover

Can Diabetes be Reversed Without Medications or Insulin? Yes!

This Book Offers You New Insight into Type 2 Diabetes That Will Change Your Life.


Based on analysis of the scientific research on diabetes, Dr. Poothullil shows you how the REAL cause of high blood sugar and diabetes is not your body's resistance to insulin.

The theory of insulin resistance is not valid.

This means that the RIGHT cure for diabetes does not require medication or insulin injections. Rather, you can lower blood sugar by making a simple change in your diet--avoiding grains and grain-flour products.

Eating foods containing grains--even supposedly healthy whole grain, gluten-free,or multi-grain foods--causes a normal body metabolism to go haywire, resulting in high blood sugar. The more you eat them, the higher your blood sugar--and this book shows you how and why this occurs.

You don't need any special diet or products--simply avoid grain-products as muchas possible, and you will reverse your diabetes in as little as 8 weeks using 8 simple steps.Don't risk having diabetes for the rest of your life, as its consequences are organ damaging,limb-losing, brain function-altering--and ultimately life threatening.

Read this book and see how you can return to a life without diabetic medications or insulin injections.

There are times when existing science turns out to be wrong―and
the explanation for the cause of Type 2 diabetes is one of them.
I have been researching diabetes for more than 20 years, and it turns
out that the leading theory about its cause misses the real scientific
reason why people develop Type 2 diabetes. For nearly 80 years, it
has been accepted that high blood sugar is caused by “insulin resistance,”
a condition in which certain cells in the body are no longer
sensitive to the presence of insulin and therefore these cells stop
allowing glucose to enter.

According to this theory, insulin resistance is the cause of high
blood sugar and eventually Type 2 diabetes if the condition persists.
Moreover, patients often believe (and medical professional may lead
them to think) that such insulin resistance cannot be reversed once
it starts. This sets off a chain of results, starting with taking oral medications,
increasing their dosage, changing to stronger and stronger
medications, and eventually giving oneself insulin injections before
every meal.

However, you should be aware that the “insulin resistance” theory
has never been proven as biological fact. The theory has not been able
to explain why the loss of insulin sensitivity occurs, or by what biological
mechanism it takes place. The theory cannot explain why younger
and younger children are developing high blood sugar and diabetes.
It cannot account for why thin people as well as overweight people
develop diabetes. It fails to explain why some pregnant women can
develop gestational diabetes within 8 weeks of pregnancy and then,
within days after giving birth, their diabetes disappears. As you will
learn in this book, there are too many inconsistencies and logical leaps
of medical science for us to continue believing in insulin resistance.

After critically examining 20 years of research, I have developed
a new, more understandable explanation for the cause of high blood
sugar and diabetes. It answers the questions above about younger
and younger children developing diabetes, about thin and overweight
people equally getting it, and about some pregnant women
incurring gestational diabetes. My explanation for the cause of high
blood sugar and diabetes also sheds light on why diabetes is spreading
throughout the world, as millions more people are now developing it. As you will
learn in this book, there are too many inconsistencies
of medical science for us to continue believing in insulin resistance.
