Steve, I applied to get the deck as soon as the article came out, still no response. I did not pledge any amount (I'm just an individual, and the lowest amount is a bit too steep for me) -- is that an immediate disqualifier?

Hi Steve,

I hope you are well and healing.

Without any malice or sarcasm whatsoever, the enthusiasm for this technology is analogous to espousing the technology for an artificial leg or arm. The default setting for our body is to heal: lifestyle choices and environmental toxicity impact our body's ability to build, repair, and maintain itself. Type 2 is a flat out choice except in the rarest theoretical circumstance. Type 1 can be reversed, but generally not by accident, and especially not if one is in the care of an MD or pharmaceutical medicine. Infections are druggable. Lifestyle chronic degenerative diseases are not. They require lifestyle protocols different from what got one into the degenerative health predicament that got them there in the first place.

I know this is not palatable to most ears, especially those that want a lazy quick fix with no effort on one's own part.

As with the diabetic eyes, start by fasting. It is the quickest way to recruit and engage the body's endogenous mechanisms for healing sugar and rancid omega-6 toxicities. LEARN AUTOPHAGY, otherwise one runs the risk of always seeking but never finding the elusive cure. Body parts are not optional, and human engineered replacements for them and the chemical processes are at best poor substitutes often lacking the fullness of the reality of good health.

Reversing type 2 can be as quick as 10 days or less to six weeks. Type 1, depending on why, is much longer and only possible if irreversible organ damage has not already occurred. Another unpalatable point is that it most likely will require a very strict keto carnivore diet mixed with serious (meaning what most people would consider Not-In-This-Lifetime) fasting to heal the organs and pancreas to kickstart the pancreas back into functioning as it should.

Yes, a simple pill or drug would be much easier if they is existed, but they do not, and they almost all do not address the causative factors of disease. It is advisable to stop stepping on landmines before trying to sew the leg back on to the body.

Please contact me to discuss about preserving the health of your other eye.

God bless and protect you,

Mike Ayala

There will be a lot more diabetics soon because of the HbA1c rise (markers for blood sugars) that occur after taking covid jabs. It can be seen in plenty of the covid studies. Here's one FYI:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8546144/

Personally, I'd recommend people with diabetes try a low-carb, high-protein diet first, before trying anything 'out-there'. I've had patients do that (with Type 2) and they managed to get off all their medications and be fine! Just by changing their diet. Pretty simple. Pretty cheap. And pretty safe!

I had to change my diet years ago after finding out I was Coeliac. Not having ANY gluten is easy. Honestly, I'd rather starve than risk eating something contaminated with gluten! Why? Because I neither want nor need 5 days of physical, mental and emotional agony all because I had a moment's lack of willpower! For someone with diabetes, foods high in carbs should be avoided at all costs.

I was shocked to learn that one of my Type 1 diabetes patients (a kid) was told by a diabetes place (hospital) to just eat what he wanted (so of course he ate lots of carbs!) and they said the insulin pump would kick in as needed. No mention AT ALL about changing his diet! I mentioned that people taking too much insulin for a long time can get quite large/fat due to insulin resistance, and asked him this kid if getting really big was something he was OK with. Turns out he was not OK with getting big later on! But no-one had mentioned any of this to the poor kid OR his parents. I had to be the bad guy! Moreover, his stats showed that his insulin pump was in fact NOT working well and he was often in high or low zones. Yet no-one had even bothered to check his diet. Except me. His Chiropractor. Hilariously, this kid also called me a 'witch' - in awe - after he felt much better following his first adjustment! He was so used to the medical system, that something helping him naturally was, well, unnatural to him! Poor kid.

Problem is, these diabetes and medical places do NOT want people having healthy diets. It's all about the drugs. Why? Because so many cases of Type 2 diabetes (especially) would reverse - and then where would these companies be?! Out of business, that's what!

And after covid, I think a lot of people on this site will also be VERY wary of any more injections!!

I’ve had diabetes for 30 years. It seems people I know who have diabetes are carb

junkies, like myself, there is such a temptation to go for carbs, even though we know that it’s bad for us. It’s hard to be

disciplined when it comes to diabetes!

I could be great one day and bad the next.

I’m definitely open to what you discussed.

Keep us informed, thanks 🙏

If it's a matter of life and death, you just HAVE to be disciplined. It's really quite simple. If you're not, you might actually die from a hypo or even a hyper. If life is so irrelevant to you, then do what you want. But if your body says "I can't take this" - then don't torture it! You're nothing without your body. None of us are. It's what keeps us keeping on!

I still like the smell of bread. But I don't even eat out anymore. That's how sensitive I am with my Coeliac. I literally CANNOT have traces of gluten without horrible reactions happening. It's amazing how my body picked up on this pretty quick smart and virtually made the decisions for me! It chose life! So I don't/can't care who I socially upset now because they want to cook for me, or something. It's not worth the pain and misery for me and my family later on!

I don't see it as a matter of willpower so much as a decision to choose LIFE.

Choose wisely, Mark.

I am excited to hear of this technology and scared for anyone involved in bringing it to market. It would change the lives of millions for sure but a cure is not going to be welcomed. Godspeed…

Steve, Dr Evans should be sure that this effort is augmented with concurrent OPTIMAL levels of vitamin D, which are far higher than the "normal" of 20-30 ng/ml recommended by most clinical labs. That level is sufficient for bone health, but much higher levels, at least 50-80 ng / ml, are needed to get optimal resistance to diabetes.and to avoid autoimmunity. Some have sub-optimal alleles for activating D3 to 25 dihydroxy D or for the vitamin D receptor and need even higher levels. Steve, you should get you own vitamin D levels up immediately, and maintain the high level during your water only fast. I think that combination has a significant chance of "resetting" your insulin responsiveness. More details on request Gwanstadt@aol.com 585.749.4611.

You may find the discussion of diabetes in the Pearlmutter's "The Better Brain Book" worth considering.

Here is a doc that cures diabetes already. Drug free.

I am not a supporter of any kind of drug, except:

1. Emergency Medicine to treat urgent damage situations.

2, Treating permanent, irreparable damage which cannot be corrected by resolving the root cause of the disease, often Chemical exposures in food and environment).

This sounds like a possible #2 above. Type 1 Diabetes has increased by 1% per decade over the last several decades, and there is a correlation with the chemical content of our food. Unfortunately, there is a point beyond which the body cannot repair itself, even after removing the toxins.

I hope you're able to move forward with this.

After the clot shots, I am very wary of anything that is injected into the body.

Well my vision would be saved from Fuchs Endothelial Dystrophy if they would figure out how to make stem cells create a new corneal layer. It's such a tiny piece of tissue. Hopefully soon.

Stem cell therapies are not without risks…

“A kind of stem cell transplant that has long been seen as one of the most promising new kinds of medical treatments could bring a greater risk of cancer than we previously thought. A study has found that more than a fifth of stem cells being grown in laboratories for regenerative medicine research harbour cancer-causing mutations.”

https://www.newscientist.com/article/2417421-stem-cells-grown-in-labs-for-experimental-therapies-pose-a-cancer-risk/

Dr. Thomas Seyfried claims close to 90% of all cancers are not caused by genetics ;i.e. deleterious mutations. They are metabolic disorders of mitochondria.

While stem cells can become any of the 200 or so cell types they can also become cancer cells. So the risk/benefit scenario has to be taken into consideration…

One possible way of T-1 diabetes treatment, not cure, is a combination of diet and lifestyle. Since fructose doesn’t require insulin to transport and metabolism, a combination of fructose and low protein diet have had some success in T-1 diabetes. Those who weigh the benefits/risks of stem cell therapies may also consider a low carb/keto diet and lifestyle that includes regular exercise…

IMV, stem cell therapies are far way off the mainstream treatments due to the high risk of complications and cancer risk…

My 28 year old son has Type 1 diabetes since the age of three. There is nothing more that I want for my son not to have Type 1 diabetes. What are the ingredients in this injection? The damn Vit K shot injured my son and caused a multitude of issues for him.

Steve, I love your enthusiasm for health and everything you've done in regards to COVID to get the message out, but as an integrative cancer consultant I have HUGE problems with "inducing epigenetic changes including upregulation of the checkpoint protein programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1)". This is a recipe to give people cancer. In the modern allopathic medical approach, cancer is frequently treated with "checkpoint inhibitors" that block PD-L1 as this "unmasks" the cancer cell. Upregulating PD-L1 has the potential to give cancer in the body a cloak so that the immune system cannot see it. It's also not needed in type 2 diabetes, as this is more of a nutritional state rather than a disease state. A ketogenic diet or personalized dietary approach is all that's needed to correct this. Perhaps for type 1 and 1.5 diabetes this approach could work, but there are obvious potential problems with the immune piece that I'd be MASSIVELY concerned with. I'd love to chat about this more if you're interested. You can contact me through www.worldviewwellness.com

Why not crowd fund it? How many diabetics are out there? How many people are loved ones of diabetics? How many people donate to diabetes charities? Maybe donate your $25 to this instead of a diabetes charity?

What about licensing the technology here (if they are interested and don't suffer from Not Invented Here Syndrome)?

World-Renowned Immunologist Named Scientific Director of Diabetes Research Institute

By: Richard Westlund | January 20, 2023

One of the world’s leading diabetes experts, Matthias von Herrath, M.D., has been named the new scientific director of the Diabetes Research Institute (DRI) at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

https://news.med.miami.edu/immunologist-named-scientific-director-of-diabetes-research-institute/

A member of my extended family had a daughter who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when she was about three or four years old, in the early 1960s. He was dismayed that the focus of American Diabetes Association was only on palliative treatment and management, not finding a cure, so he and another family founded the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. He promised his daughter that they would have a cure by the time she was 18. Unfortunately that didn't happen. At some point later he left the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, and, ironically, went to work as a fundraiser for the American Diabetes Association. I'm not sure what the issues were that caused the change, and perhaps he felt the ADA has started to focus more on research for a cure. Anyway, at some point in the early 1970s he moved to South Florida, and I believe he may have directed some funds to, or helped raise funds independently for the Diabetes Research Institute at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, I'm not sure. Ironically it was five South Florida families who also started the Diabetes Research Institute (I don't recall if he was one of them), after they had what seemed like promising research into islet cell transplantation. I don't think that method ever fulfilled its promise of a cure, but supposedly, the Diabetes Research Institute is one of the top diabetes research facilities in the world.

No thanks....artificial cells? another injection? Try permanent lifestyle changes that most people don't want to face.
