-
has a cheap and easy treatment for
-
fibromyalgia one that
-
makes your symptoms go almost back to
-
nothing
-
been discovered and then suppressed
-
join me for the next few minutes as we
-
discuss the root cause of fibromyalgia
-
and some research that was very
-
compelling potentially groundbreaking
-
suppressed and the research study
-
retracted
-
for [ __ ] reasons i think you're
-
going to enjoy this and
-
perhaps you could benefit greatly if you
-
or a family member
-
suffers from fibromyalgia i'm dr ken
-
berry a family physician
-
with 20 years of clinical experience and
-
we're going to talk about the cure for
-
fibromyalgia that
-
no one wants to be talked about
-
over 10 million people in the united
-
states alone
-
suffer from the severe symptoms of
-
fibromyalgia
-
these people are 10 times more likely
-
to commit suicide or to attempt suicide
-
because of the severe fatigue the severe
-
pain the insomnia
-
and the depression that go along with
-
fibromyalgia
-
many research papers have hinted at the
-
root cause and
-
therefore the cure for fibromyalgia
-
over the past few years but one research
-
paper just came out and blatantly said
-
it
-
and the fate of that paper
-
is his concerning and i think you'll see
-
why in just a minute
-
this research article was published in
-
plus one
-
which is a fairly reputable online
-
journal
-
and the title is is insulin resistance
-
the cause of fibromyalgia
-
uh this paper went through all the
-
standard hoops and jumped over all the
-
standard hurdles
-
the publishers of plus one approved it
-
and it was released for
-
preliminary publication and then after
-
it was published all of a sudden
-
it was retracted and the reason for this
-
retraction is
-
very odd i've actually been in contact
-
with the lead publisher of this paper
-
and this is what he had to say about the
-
retraction
-
this is a quote we think the retraction
-
was
-
odd and it came as a surprise according
-
to the journal it was based on the
-
premise that we should have obtained an
-
irb letter of exclusion before we
-
started collecting research data not
-
after
-
neither we nor the academic editors were
-
aware of such regulation prior to
-
publication
-
incidentally similar retrospective
-
studies
-
abound in the literature there's
-
hundreds and hundreds of this type of
-
study
-
that are published by many journals
-
without
-
this new requirement and so
-
to put it bluntly they made up a reason
-
to retract
-
this paper thus the lead
-
author goes on to say we suspect that
-
outside interest probably pressured the
-
journal to retract the study
-
although we do not know what motivated
-
them to selectively apply a little known
-
controversial mechanism to retract our
-
study
-
complaints from big pharma who knows
-
yeah who knows the reason that such a
-
respected researcher as professor pipola
-
and i agree that there were vested
-
outside interests that had this paper
-
retracted
-
is because just imagine if every person
-
in the united states who suffers from
-
fibromyalgia
-
stopped eating the foods that contribute
-
to the root cause of fibromyalgia which
-
is
-
insulin resistance or hyperinsulinemia
-
or
-
pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes these
-
are all
-
different ways of describing the same
-
elephant
-
what if all 10 million of these people
-
immediately adopted
-
a low carbohydrate diet and their
-
symptoms improved so much
-
that they also didn't need to take their
-
lyrica
-
their sevilla their elivil their
-
neurotin
-
anymore immediately overnight
-
big food corporations and big pharma
-
corporations would lose
-
billions of dollars of profits
-
so you can see right away why professor
-
papola and i
-
both think this was squashed
-
by some big players in the game
-
and because i think this study reveals
-
the root cause
-
of fibromyalgia and therefore directly
-
implies
-
what the treatment or the cure or or the
-
treatment to improve your symptoms
-
drastically
-
is in this study they used hemoglobin
-
a1c
-
as a proxy marker for insulin resistance
-
or
-
hyperinsulinemia i think there are
-
better
-
markers for that and we'll we'll talk
-
about that in just a second
-
but they found that people who took the
-
drug
-
metformin which is a very very
-
inexpensive version
-
of the brand name drug glucophage or rio
-
met
-
had a drastic reduction
-
in their pain scores very often going
-
from a
-
six to eight out of ten on the ten point
-
pain scale down to a
-
zero or a point five or a one out of ten
-
on that same pain scale he also noticed
-
in the research that there was a direct
-
correlation between
-
elevated hemoglobin a1c and the severity
-
of the symptoms
-
of the people in the study with
-
fibromyalgia i've included a link to
-
this research
-
study in the show notes below and also
-
some other research
-
that sufferers of fibromyalgia might
-
find very
-
very informative and useful for reducing
-
their their fibromyalgia disability
-
scores
-
so the question becomes okay so what
-
should i
-
do if if i or a loved one suffers from
-
fibromyalgia
-
here's what i think you should do first
-
and foremost you need to go see your
-
doctor
-
and demand respectfully demand that they
-
check a hemoglobin a1c a c
-
peptide and a fasting insulin
-
on you immediately this is going to tell
-
you
-
your degree of hyperinsulinemia or
-
insulin resistance and it's also going
-
to uncover
-
whether you have pre-diabetes which i
-
consider to be
-
early diabetes or type 2 diabetes that
-
could very well have been
-
undiagnosed if your doctor hasn't been
-
checking these tests
-
in the past number two the drug that
-
that
-
professor papola used in this study was
-
glucophage
-
immediately ask your doctor if you can
-
have a prescription and the
-
research used glucophage 500 milligrams
-
twice a day and i don't think that's the
-
long-term solution for you i'm going to
-
tell you what i think that is in a
-
second but
-
for now getting you on glucophage could
-
lead to a drastic reduction
-
in your fibromyalgia symptoms long term
-
you need to understand what is the diet
-
what kind of diet causes me
-
to have high levels of blood sugar and
-
high levels of
-
insulin that are chronically too high
-
and that is a
-
high carbohydrate diet a diet filled
-
with sugars
-
and filled with processed grains that's
-
the kind of diet that's going to cause
-
you to be insulin resistant or have
-
hyperinsulinemia so i would
-
i would implore you to immediately
-
research
-
and adopt some version of a low
-
carbohydrate diet trying to keep your
-
total carbohydrate
-
intake under 50 total grams a day this
-
could be a low carb diet a banting diet
-
a ketogenic diet a carnivore diet any of
-
these
-
types of diets are going to drastically
-
reduce your chronically elevated insulin
-
levels reduce your blood sugar levels
-
back to normal
-
and begin to reverse your insulin
-
resistance
-
which according to this research appears
-
to be the root cause
-
of fibromyalgia there's also quite a bit
-
of research showing that
-
most people with fibromyalgia are quite
-
depleted
-
in magnesium and that indeed their
-
symptoms improve when they start
-
getting more magnesium in their diet now
-
i have a video on this channel about
-
high magnesium foods you might want to
-
pick up something like ketochow's
-
magnesium drops so that you can
-
immediately
-
start to get more magnesium back into
-
your body while you're learning which
-
foods
-
are high in magnesium but i i think the
-
magnesium does matter
-
but that's probably 20 of the solution
-
80
-
of your solution to reversing your
-
fibromyalgia and the serious symptoms
-
that go along with it
-
is lowering the carbohydrates in your
-
diet
-
and the first carbohydrates that need to
-
get out of your diet are the sugars
-
and the processed grains the fruit
-
juices
-
and the fruit juice smoothies those are
-
the biggest offenders now of course if
-
you're drinking
-
soft drinks every day that's that's dumb
-
you need to stop that immediately
-
but i want you to really think about the
-
dynamics behind
-
how this study was retracted for
-
virtually no reason whatsoever no
-
meaningful reason
-
no no study participants were harmed
-
none of their rights were violated in
-
this study
-
just out of the blue this study was
-
retracted
-
and i want you to really think about
-
what that says about the current state
-
of big food and big pharma in the united
-
states
-
please i implore you if you know someone
-
with fibromyalgia
-
they need to hear what's in this video
-
they need to read this research study
-
they need to understand what the root
-
cause of their fibromyalgia is so please
-
share this video with them
-
and if you would like to to help me and
-
become part of team berry
-
as we rediscover a proper human diet and
-
uncover the dastardly deeds of big food
-
and big pharma corporations

also get a peek
-
behind the scenes at how we do what we
-
do and how all the research is
-
discovered
-
and then how i get it out to people
-
suffering
