Hands or No Hands?• The Lord desires his church to be a perfect body,--not
all arms, not all body without arms, but body and arms together,--and every member working as a part of the one great whole. As the right arm is connected with the body, so the health reform and medical missionary work is connected with the third angel's message, and is to work efficiently as the right arm, for the defense of the body of truth. --RH June 20, 1899.
Every Member to Take Hold of Medical Missionary Work
• We have come to a time when every member of the church should take hold of medical missionary work. The world is a lazar house filled with victims of both physical and spiritual disease. –Welfare Ministry, 138
The Bible Says:• Prov 26:2 As the bird by wandering, as
the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come. (KJV)

What is diabetes?

Diabetes Type 1
What causes diabetes type 2?
• It has been taught that too much carbohydrates or sweets in the diet is the culprit.
• It has also been taught that the cause of diabetes was simply hereditary. (PH 74)
• But are these true, what does latest scientific research show? [Health Power 50-52]>
Diabetes Statistics (continued)
About 80% of Type II Diabetics are overweight
The Link: Fat & Diabetes
A study involving 1,300 Colorado residents, determined that those with low carbohydrate, high fat diets were much more likely to develop Type II Diabetes.
High Fat Diets & Diabetes
Shocking Research• By James Anderson, M.D., from
the University of Kentucky College of Medicine, a widely respected authority on diabetes.
• He fed lean, healthy young men a rich 65% fat diet and was able to turn them into mild diabetics in less than two weeks.
• A similar group, fed a lean 10% fat diet plus 1 pound of sugar a day, did not produce even 1 diabetic after 11 weeks when the experiment ended.
So what causes diabetes?• Studies demonstrate a strong relationship to Fat -Fat in the diet and fat on the body.
• The disease is rare in areas of the world where fat intake is low and obesity uncommon.
How does that happen?• Insulin receptors can be termed “doors”• High fat diet seals these doors• With the doors sealed how will sugar get
into the cell…So you will feel weak• Three classic symptoms appears (3
“poly-”)– Excess sugar in blood but because it is not
reaching the cells you feel hungry – excessive appetite (polyphagia)
– So signal sent to kidneys for fluids to be released causing excessive urination – (polyuria)
– You lose a lot of water through urine and so you start feeling thirsty – (polydipsia)
Diabetes Type 2
95% of all diabetics have
this kind.

Other Factors & Diabetes
Trans Fats (Partially Hydrogenated) Consumption of partially
hydrogenated oils is responsible for approximately 40 percent of all cases of Type II Diabetes in the US

What can then be done to save the diabetics?

Lose the Fat & Feel Great! Most cases of Type 2 Diabetes
improve with weight loss and dietary fat reduction
The Program we Recommend
• A full plant-based diet• 3-5 serving of fruits a day• Only whole foods, no refined
foods• 1 hour walk everyday
Addition and Subtraction• Pg 289, 90
• Substantial Breakfast
• Healthy Lunch
• Very Small Supper
Walking away from Diabetes• Walking everyday (exercise in
fresh air and sunshine).• An organized plan• A simplifying of the diet
Walking away from Diabetes• “…work out your own
salvation with fear and trembling.”–Philippians 2:12
Walking away from Diabetes• 1Co 15:57 But thanks be to
God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Walking away from Diabetes• 1Co 15:58 Therefore, my beloved
brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
