So many people are under the believe or assumption that Type 2 Diabetes is easy to over come.  If this were true, why do we still have approximately 15 million Americans with this disease?

So believe it is based on obesity, that every "fat" person will contract this disease.  This is NOT true.  Obesity triggers the disease to surface, however does not cause people to contract this.  Most, not all, but most people with Diabetes are born with a Pancreas deficiency, which will cause low levels of blood glucose, causing Type 2 Diabetes.

Unfortunately for most people simple diet and exercise is not enough to overcome this disease.

I am a personal test to that.  I spent a year working out and modifying my diet, thinking I was OK.  Until one day I nearly collapsed in the streets of New York while on vacation.  It was after that I did further research into this disease.  This disease took my grandfather’s life along with complications of the effects on his body.  This disease has also taken my mothers life, incapcitating her ability to hold a job because of the need of regular timely food and insulin medication.

You think it is easy when it is not.  You may study the right foods to eat and strive in the gym for some time only to realise you stopped short and still have symptoms.  It took my enough to nearly collapse to perfect my diet to a point of overcoming this disease.  Blurred vision, clammy skin, faintness, loosing color, etc.  While this may be the minor form of the disease, it is very scary. 

If you seek further knowledge, this is one good article to read.

Is it going to the gym?

Wrong

Is it reading the latest diet plans from your magazine?

Wrong

Is it being a personal trainer?

Not necessarily

What makes a true health enthusiast is someone who is passionate about providing others health tips, whether for free or by some book they write or seminar they put on.  A true health enthusiast is someone who shares a life long passion about themselves to serve themselves and their bodies better.  Doesn’t have to be a Doctor, or physician or even a personal trainer.

I find that many people share a passion for a better future through the use of proper nutrition, health and wellness.  However few people actually take this information to heart or beyond.  Most people read a few items, think they know everything, then quit.  Those people often loose site of their goals and choose to except things just because.  It is also said that most people quit right before they start to see results.  What a shame.

What is the purpose of working out, dieting, starving (like some do) or putting yourself through things that you really don’t like to do.  I mean come on, who seriously loves the gym.  We hate the gym, but live the results and what we are doing for ourselves.  If you workout for yourself and not others, you will progress further.  Although the support of others helps, you must first have the inner desire to change, because without the inner desire, you will not push hard enough and waste your time.

After all if we were not true enthusiasts and we don’t share the inner desire, why would we push ourselves that hard in the gym everyday?
