I appreciate the information. I learned this, not in the same depth, 15 years ago and needed to be reminded how detrimental this is. Knowledge is power.

"I love this diet because it takes so little time to prepare."
Referring to episodes of hypoglycemia:
"I really like this diet because I do believe the episodes of hypoglycemia are caused by the lo-carb approach, which is wrong for me."
From a latter letter:
"...and the drastic cut-down on sweets, and the diet (I would say I practice most of the time) must be helping......because I am not usually hungry, and have had NO episodes of hypoglycemia ..."

The Mericle Diet and Me
I have been reading about diet and health since 1986, but The MericleDiet has definitely helped me the most.
After following Dr. Mericle's suggestions for over 15 months, I can truthfully say I will never stray from his
program. One of the unseen benefits has been the reduction of blood pressure medicine I take. Although
I have never been a big consumer of sugar, I now consume even less since I now
understand the importance of keeping your insulin levels low. I am now able to keep my blood pressure at an optimal
level with half the medication of my pre-MericleDiet days. And, the ease of this program! I always have
something yummy and ready to eat! For the first time in my adult life I no longer suffer, and I do
mean suffer, from the yo-yo syndrome!
This is absolutely the best program for me and my family...

I had the best dinner tonight, I
sauteed some onions and fresh garlic in my wok, then put it on the side then
sauteed a red bell pepper, tofu, and broccoli, ( put that on the side) then
took some cooked brown rice and fried it up adding water and soy sauce, then
added it all together, then made a fresh salad with red onions, spinach
leaves,romaine lettuce. That was the best meal I've had in sooooooo long!!!!! mcdonalds
( or any restaurant , for that matter)couldn't touch that meal !!!!! Thanks Yolanda
From another letter:
The best part of this diet is that
when I'm finished eating I don't feel guilty, and I don't feel blah, I feel
good, nooo I feel GREAT !!!!! for lunch I had potatoes( the way you said to cook
them ) and some corn tortillas. Thanks Yolanda

Brown or Otherwise ... It Is Still Sugar
Question from Jack:
A question from Jack, one of the subscribers to this newsletter. "Reference your tip regarding diabetes. The only sugar I use is brown and is this a concern in my case?"
Answer:
The word "brown" has gotten a lot of play lately regarding "healthy eating." Brown rice and brown bread are both "in" while white bread and white rice are known to be "unhealthy." It would be nice if brown sugar was as good for you as brown rice or some brown breads made from whole grains with no added sugar. Unfortunately, brown sugar is only white sugar that has been colored brown, usually with molasses. Sugar of some variety is the most common food additive today. Sugar is added to almost everything, even potato chips. I still can't figure out why they would add sugar to potato chips, as if the salt and fat were not enough.
Varieties of Sugar
White sugar is extracted from the juice of sugar cane or beets.
Once it has been extracted, it is processed extensively to form
a granulated white substance. This is sucrose, also known as
table sugar, cane sugar, beet sugar, grape sugar, refined sugar
or granulated sugar.
Raw Sugar is produced in the initial stages of making white sugar.
It is usually somewhat brown in color and may contain bacteria
and molds.
Brown sugar is usually made by simply adding molasses (or some
other food coloring) to white sugar.
Confectioner's sugar is made by crushing or grinding white
sugar. Corn starch is added to prevent the formation of lumps.
Molasses is a thick dark syrup that is produced during sugar
refinement.
A brief look at the molecular structure of the three common disaccharides, sucrose, lactose and maltose.
The molecule sucrose consists of one moiety of glucose connected to one moiety of fructose via an O-glycosidic linkage. This is a "disaccharide" ie two sugar molecules hooked together. Two other common disaccharides are lactose from milk and maltose commonly found in beer. Lactose is one moiety of galactose hooked to one moiety of glucose and maltose is two moieties of glucose hooked together. Sucrose is the most dangerous of these because human biochemistry has no way to deal with equal loads of fructose and glucose presented at the same time.
The Dangers of Sucrose
There has been much written about the dangers of sucrose but suffice it to say, adult onset diabetes mellitus is now epidemic. I feel that while both adult and juvenile diabetes may have to varying degrees the same common cause, ie confusion of the immature immune system by cow's milk with different degrees of expression, without the ongoing record levels of sucrose comsumption in America, we would not be having this explosion of adult onset diabetes mellitus( a polite and confusing term for sugar toxicity).
Today's Health Tip:
Be very careful of sugar in any form. Read labels of all processed food carefully. If you have adult onset diabetes or any symptoms of it, like hypoglycemia, try to avoid sugar completely.
Thanks for your time and your attention.
