Diabetes-Free Americans Speak Out
David, 59, St. Louis, Missouri
“I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes when I was 55 years old. I knew I was overweight and
unhealthy but I couldn’t motivate myself to change my diet or to exercise regularly. After
four years of my life being controlled by my diabetes I decided to make a change – that is
when I discovered the 11-Day Diabetes Fix. When I heard about a diabetes cure that didn’t
require dietary restrictions or exercise I thought it was too good to be true but I tried it
anyway. It was the best decision I’ve ever made.”
Janet, 46, Tulsa, Arizona
“I’ve been a type 1 diabetic for most of my life and I never thought that I would be free of my
insulin injections. Every day I had to plan what I ate and time my meals to avoid spikes in
my blood sugar – it was a nightmare. I couldn’t enjoy a meal out with friends or go to a
dinner party without worrying if I would be able to eat without sending my blood sugar
skyrocketing. When a friend introduced me to the 11-Day Diabetes Fix I never thought it
would work for me. Slowly but surely, however, my blood sugar started to stabilize and my
diabetic symptoms disappeared. I cannot thank you enough for developing this wonderful
solution!”
William, 62, Cincinnati, Ohio
“At the age of 60 I was morbidly obese, had high blood pressure and even higher cholesterol. I
was on the fast-track to heart failure and could barely make it up a flight of steps without
wheezing. My doctor told me that if I didn’t make a serious change to my lifestyle that I was
going to die and it would be sooner rather than later. I knew he was right but I was too
stubborn to follow the diet he recommended and too out-of-shape to do much exercise. When I
came across the 11-Day Diabetes Fix I knew it was a God-send. I still have a ways to go, but
I’ve lost more than 20 pounds and my blood pressure is approaching the normal range. I
know it won’t be long before I have my life back and can finally throw away my diabetes
testing supplies!”
Sharon, 55, Durham, North Carolina
“My husband has always had a bit of a spare tire and he loves fried food. So, when his doctor
diagnosed him with type 2 diabetes, I can’t say that I was surprised. I started cooking him
healthier meals and encouraged him to hike with me on the weekends, but I knew he was
sneaking in trips to McDonald’s whenever he could and he always found an excuse to stay
home on the weekend. As frustrated as I was with him, I wasn’t ready to give up – I was
determined to make sure that he saw his grandkids graduate high school. When I found the
11-Day Diabetes Fix I thought it must have been designed just for him. I started making him
the Blood Sugar Stabilizer shake for breakfast everyday (with some added sugar so he didn’t
think it was too healthy). Before I knew it, the pounds started to melt away and he had the
lowest cholesterol level he’d seen in nearly a decade. This program saved my husband’s life
and I couldn’t be more grateful.”

Introduction
According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), over 29 million
people in the United States have some kind of diabetes – that equates to more than
9% of the total population. Of that 29 million, only about 21 million have actually
been diagnosed with the disease while another 8.1 million remain undiagnosed – in
fact, it is estimated that nearly 28% of people who have diabetes are undiagnosed.
Furthermore, approximately 1.4 million new cases of diabetes are diagnosed each
year and nearly 90 million Americans age 20 and older have been diagnosed with
prediabetes.
Not only is diabetes an incredibly common condition, but it can also be very
dangerous. Some of the short-term effects of diabetes include having to keep a
constant eye on your blood sugar levels, following a restrictive diet, dizziness or
fainting spells, having to carry insulin shots with you, and most of all, having nearly
every one of your life decisions affected by the disease. In regard to long-term
effects, people with diabetes have a shortened life expectancy – up to 10 years
shorter than average. There is also a risk for losing limbs, going blind, having high
blood pressure, and an increased threat of heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.
As common as diabetes is, many people still do not understand the disease.
There are three different types of diabetes – type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes is a kind of autoimmune disorder in which the immune system
actively attacks the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. This results in an
inability to produce insulin which necessitates the needs for insulin injections.
Insulin is a type of hormone that helps to control the amount of glucose (or sugar) in
the bloodstream – insulin is needed in order for the body to use glucose as a source
of energy. For individuals with type 1 diabetes, insulin injections are required in
order to maintain proper blood sugar levels. Dietary changes may also help to
manage the condition.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body still produces insulin but it doesn’t
make enough of it or it can’t properly use the insulin available. As a result, glucose
accumulates in the bloodstream instead of being utilized for energy. While type 1
diabetes most frequently manifests during childhood or early adolescence, type 2
diabetes can develop at any time but it most commonly occurs in adults over the age
of 40. Type 2 diabetes is primarily associated with hereditary and lifestyle risk
factors like obesity, poor diet, and lack of exercise. This type of diabetes can be
managed with lifestyle changes, though certain medications and insulin injections
may be required in some cases.
The third type of diabetes, gestational diabetes, occurs during pregnancy.
This type of diabetes usually goes away once the baby is born, but the woman has an
increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes later in life. Gestation diabetes occurs
in between 2 and 4 percent of pregnancies and it can be managed through lifestyle
changes and healthy dietary habits. In some cases, however, medication may be
needed to manage blood sugar levels.
If you have been diagnosed with diabetes or prediabetes, you may feel as
though you have lost control over your life. Having diabetes means always worrying
about your blood sugar level – you may even have to test your blood sugar several
times a day. If your blood sugar level drops too low or rises too high, you may
experience dizziness, faintness, nausea, and even mood swings – all of this is added
on top of having to administer regular insulin shots. Keeping track of your blood
sugar level can be a difficult task, especially while you are at work, on vacation, or
when you are driving. You can never be free from your condition.
Having diabetes also means keeping a close eye on your diet. You may have
to avoid eating certain foods because they might cause your blood sugar to spike –
you may even have to follow a restrictive diet to keep your diabetes under control.
Added to these dietary changes is the need for regular exercise. If you’ve been
diagnosed with prediabetes, getting regular exercise is a must to prevent the
development of full-blown diabetes – so is maintaining a healthy diet.
In addition to these short-term effects of diabetes, you are also hit with the
fact that you may not live to see your sixtieth birthday. Once you’ve been diagnosed
with diabetes, you can automatically cut up to 10 years off your life expectancy. This
may mean missing the high school graduation of your grandchildren, if you even
live long enough to see them born. Aside from early death, you also face the risk of
additional complications like permanent blindness, amputation of limbs, skin and
gum problems, constant high blood pressure, and an increased risk for
cardiovascular problems like heart attack and stroke. In short, you become a slave to
your condition and you may feel as though you have no control over your body.
If any of these things resonates with you, you will be glad to know that there
is hope. The 11-Day Diabetes Fix may be just what you’ve been looking for to get
your diabetes under control, to manage your symptoms, or to reverse the condition
entirely! No matter how old you are and how long you’ve had diabetes or
prediabetes, this protocol is the key to regaining control of your body and of your
life. Once you try this product you will only be days away from reversing your
diabetes. No more will you have to worry about insulin shots, finger pricks, or
medications. Never again will you have to worry about risky surgeries, amputations,
or early death. Finally, you can stop worrying about constantly keeping watch over
your blood sugar level, watching as others enjoy all of the foods you’ve been
forbidden. No more will you feel like a burden on the ones you love – you can regain
your confidence, your health and, most importantly, your life.
So, if you are ready to take back control and reverse your diabetes or
prediabetes, keep reading to learn more about the 11-Day Diabetes Fix!
Chapter One: Complications Associated with Diabetes
After reading the introduction, you have a basic understanding of some of the
complications associated with diabetes but you may not yet understand just how
dangerous diabetes can be. According to the ADA, diabetes is the seventh leading
cause of death in the United States with more than 70,000 death certificates listing
diabetes as the underlying cause of death each year. The ADA also suggests,
however, that diabetes may be an underreported cause of death – an estimated 35%
to 40% of people diagnosed with diabetes had their condition listed anywhere on the
death certificate and only about 10% to 15% listed it as the underlying cause of
death.
In addition to the dangers and complications associated with the risk factors
for diabetes (namely obesity and lack of exercise), diabetes is associated with a
number of complications and co-morbid conditions. Some of these conditions and
complications include the following:
 Hypertension (high blood pressure)
 Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)

 Dyslipidemia (abnormally high cholesterol)
 Cardiovascular disease
 Heart attack
 Stroke
 Eye problems and blindness
 Kidney disease
 Amputations
 Alzheimer’s Disease
 Cancer
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
More commonly known as high blood pressure, hypertension is a condition
that affects nearly one third of adults over the age of 20 in the United States. Between
2009 and 2012, an estimated 71% of adults over the age of 18 with diagnosed
diabetes also had blood pressure higher than or equal to 140/90 or they took
prescription medications to lower their blood pressure. High blood pressure is
associated with many of the same risk factors as diabetes including physical
inactivity, obesity, and an unhealthy diet (particularly one high in salt and fatty
foods).
Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Sugar)
Low blood sugar, or hypoglycemia, occurs when the blood glucose level
drops below normal. Glucose is the basic component of food as it is broken down by
the body and it is an important source of energy. Carbohydrate-rich foods like bread,
pasta, cereal, rice, and sugary foods are high in glucose. After eating a glucose-rich
meal, the glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream and dispersed to the body’s cells
for energy. As blood glucose levels rise, the pancreas is triggered to produce a
copy@11DayDiabetesFix 2015
10
hormone called insulin which helps the cells utilize the glucose - any excess that the
body cannot burn immediately for fuel is stored in the liver and in the muscles in the
form of glycogen. Extra glucose may also be stored in the fat cells. As blood sugar
levels drop, the pancreas begins to produce another hormone called glucagon which
sends signals to the liver to start breaking down stored glycogen, releasing the
glucose into the bloodstream. This causes blood glucose levels to rise back to normal.
For people with diabetes, however, this reaction may be impaired which
could cause blood sugar levels to drop too low. Symptoms of hypoglycemia may
include dizziness, shakiness, sweating, confusion, weakness, or light-headedness. In
most cases, eating or drinking a small amount of glucose-rich food is enough to
correct the hypoglycemia. Unfortunately, hypoglycemia can also be a side effect of
certain diabetes medications. There are some, however, that do not cause
hypoglycemia – metformin, one of the most common diabetes medications, does not.
Many of the same lifestyle changes that are recommended to help manage diabetes
also help to reduce the risk for hypoglycemia.
Dyslipidemia (Abnormally High Cholesterol)
Dyslipidemia is characterized by elevated plasma cholesterol, triglycerides, or
both – it may also involve low high-density lipoprotein (bad cholesterol) levels.
These conditions may contribute to the development of atherosclerosis, a condition
in which the arteries become clogged by plaque deposits on the inner walls. Between
2009 and 2012, an estimated 65% of adults 18 or older with diagnosed diabetes used
cholesterol-lowering medications or had LDL cholesterol levels equal to or higher
than 100 mg/dl. Patients with type 2 diabetes have an especially high risk for
developing dyslipidemia, particularly if they are obese and their diabetes is poorly
managed.
Cardiovascular Disease
11
According to the ADA, cardiovascular death rates among diabetics
were about 1.7 times higher than in adults without diagnosed diabetes. Also known
as heart disease, cardiovascular disease refers to a number of conditions that are all
related to atherosclerosis. The buildup of plaque in the artery walls makes it harder
for blood flow to reach vital organs and, if a clot forms, it can stop blood flow
completely which may result in a heart attack or stroke. Aside from heart attack and
stroke, some other types of cardiovascular disease include heart failure, arrhythmia,
and heart valve problems.
Heart failure (also known as congestive heart failure) occurs when the heart is
unable to pump blood as well as it should. The heart continues to beat, but the
body’s needs for oxygenated blood are not being met. Arrhythmia is an abnormal
heart rhythm – it may involve the heart beating too fast, too slow, or irregularly.
When the heart rate drops below 60 bpm it is called bradycardia and, when the heart
rate rises above 100 bpm it is called tachycardia. Stenosis is a condition in which the
heart valves do not open enough to allow proper blood flow.
Heart Attack
A heart attack happens when blood flow to the heart is blocked by a blood
clot. The blood clot might cut off some blood flow or all of it – if it cuts of blood flow
completely, the part of the heart deprived of blood flow begins to die. In most cases,
people survive their first heart attack and they are able to resume their normal lives
afterward with some lifestyle changes. According to the ADA, however,
hospitalization rates for adults with diagnosed diabetes were about 1.8 times higher
than for adults without diabetes.
Stroke
An ischemic stroke, typically called a stroke, occurs when a blood vessel
supplying the brain becomes blocked. If the brain doesn’t get adequate blood flow,
12
brain cells will begin to die off. As a result, the patient may lose the ability to
perform ordinary functions like talking or walking. A hemorrhagic stroke happens
when a blood vessel in the brain bursts – this is most commonly caused by untreated
hypertension. According to the ADA, hospitalization rates for adult diabetics are
about 1.5 times higher than for adults without diabetes.
Eye Problems and Blindness
While heart problems related to diabetes make sense due to an overlap in
lifestyle factors, eye problems related to diabetes may seem a little less obvious. In
reality, however, a condition called diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of
permanent blindness in American adults. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes,
your blood sugar levels are likely to be too high and that can cause damage to the
tiny blood vessels in your retina, the light-sensitive tissue in the back of your eye.
Over time, damage to the retina causes blurry or double vision, floating spots, loss of
peripheral vision, and pain or pressure in the eyes. Eventually, it can lead to
complete loss of vision that cannot be corrected.
According to the ADA, between 2005 and 2008 nearly 30% of diabetic adults
over the age of 40 (approximately 4.2 million) had some level of diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetes can also increase your risk for cataracts, glaucoma, and other eye problems.
In some cases, surgery or medicated eye drops may be able to correct the problem
and keep it from progressing. If you fail to treat the problem promptly, however,
you could end up with permanent blindness.
Kidney Disease
The kidneys are responsible for filtering blood to remove toxins and excess
fluid – they also help to regulate blood pressure and electrolyte balance. As is true
for diabetes-related eye problems, diabetes can also damage the tiny blood vessels in
the kidneys which can lead to kidney failure or kidney disease. Acute renal failure,
13
or acute kidney injury, is the sudden loss of kidney function typically due to loss of
blood flow, direct kidney damage, or a blockage of urine flow from the kidneys.
Chronic kidney disease, on the other hand, is most commonly caused by high blood
pressure and type 1 and type 2 diabetes. According to the ADA, diabetes was listed
as the primary cause for kidney failure in about 44% of cases in 2011. During that
same year, nearly 50,000 people started treatment for diabetes-related kidney failure
and nearly 230,000 people diagnosed with diabetic kidney failure required a kidney
transplant or chronic dialysis to manage the condition.
Amputations
Another surprising complication associated with diabetes is amputations.
Diabetes can cause poor circulation to the extremities – particularly the feet – which
can lead to nerve damage. Cuts, blisters, and sores can also heal poorly or develop
infections due to poor circulation and, if left untreated, may eventually necessitate a
toe, foot, or entire leg amputation. According to the ADA, about 73,000 non-
traumatic lower-limb amputations were performed in 2010 on adults 20 years or
older with diagnosed diabetes. In general, about 60% of all non-traumatic lower-limb
amputations are performed each year in diabetics 20 years or older. According to the
NHS, individuals with diabetes are 15 times more likely to undergo an amputation
than people who do not have diabetes.
Alzheimer’s Disease
An estimated 15 million people around the world are affected by Alzheimer’s
disease, a progressive neurological condition that destroys the patient’s ability to
think, remember things, and to function independently. Research is still being
conducted regarding the cause of this terrible disease, but it has been linked to a
decline in acetylcholine levels. Acetylcholine is a neurotransmitter that plays an
essential role in memory formation and retention. Alzheimer’s patients also
frequently display beta amyloid deposits (also known as senile plaques) in the brain
14
as well as significant oxidative damage to the brain cells. Although the link between
Alzheimer’s and diabetes is still being explored, there are undeniable biochemical
similarities shared between the two conditions including signs of severe oxidative
stress and the presence of advanced glycation end products (AGEs).
In further support of a connection between diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease,
it is worth noting that both the risk for developing Alzheimer’s and for developing
diabetes increases with age. Some researchers suggest that as the baby-boomer
generation approaches the age of 60, there will be an increase in Alzheimer’s cases as
well. Many researchers believe that the same therapies used to manage diabetes may
also be effective in preventing Alzheimer’s. These therapies may include dietary
changes, improved exercise habits, healthier diet, and medication.
Cancer
Each and every year, the incidence of both diabetes and cancer are seen to
increase around the world. The prevalence of cancer in certain areas is difficult to
establish because some countries do not have cancer registries, but it has been
estimated that in 2008 there were over 12 million new cases of cancer diagnosed. The
most commonly seen types of cancer include lung breast, and colorectal cancer and
the most deadly types of cancer are lung, stomach, and liver cancer. Worldwide,
cancer is the second leading cause of death – diabetes is the twelfth.
Both cancer and diabetes are complex diseases but the two are diagnosed in
the same individual more often than might be expected by chance. Concurrent cases
of cancer and diabetes have been documented over the last fifty years, though the
details of the association are still poorly understood. There seems to be a link
between certain types of cancer in type 2 diabetics, though diabetic men are less
likely to develop prostate cancer. There are few studies available that have studied
the link between cancer and type 1 diabetes.
15
Though the association is still poorly understood, it has been observed that
cancer and diabetes share many of the same risk factors including age, obesity, lack
of physical activity, poor diet, alcohol consumption and smoking. New cases of both
cancer and diabetes are most commonly diagnosed in individuals over the age of 55
and obesity significantly increases the risk for both. A healthy diet low in red meat
but high in fruits, vegetables and whole grains has been associated both with
reduced risk for cancer and prevention of type 2 diabetes as has higher levels of
physical activity. Regular smoking and alcohol consumption increase the risk for
certain types of cancer and for the development of diabetes.
16
Chapter Two: Current Solutions for Diabetes
When it comes to managing diabetes and prediabetes, there are many
different solutions out there. Unfortunately, a majority of these solutions involve
insulin injections, finger pricks, and medications. The key to managing diabetes is to
prevent spikes in blood sugar levels. In doing so, you can reduce the risk for
diabetes-related complications like heart disease, nerve damage, eye problems, heart
attack, gum disease, and stroke. In addition to insulin injections and medications,
most people with diabetes are also required to make healthy changes to their diet
and lifestyle in order to manage their blood sugar levels.
Treatment options for diabetes vary slightly depending on the type of
diabetes you have. Current solutions for prediabetes are aimed at preventing the
factors which most frequently contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes – this
includes poor diet, lack of exercise, and obesity. The 11-Day Diabetes Fix is a unique
solution for diabetes that anyone and everyone can implement. Before learning
about the protocol, however, you need to understand the current solutions for
diabetes so you can appreciate the differences.
17
Managing Type 1 Diabetes
The management of type 1 diabetes is two-fold – it involves medications and
dietary changes. The most important type of medication for type 1 diabetics is
insulin shots. Because the body is physically incapable of producing insulin on its
own, you must inject insulin into your body to manage blood sugar levels.
Unfortunately, insulin injections are only a temporary fix – they can help to manage
blood sugar levels but they cannot make the body produce insulin on its own. It is
also important to note that there are side effects that come with insulin injections.
Many people who inject insulin as a treatment for type 1 diabetes find that
they actually develop low blood glucose levels as a side effect of the insulin or that
they end up gaining weight. Additionally, having type 1 diabetes means that you
can’t just eat a meal without worrying about your insulin level – you have to keep
constantly checking it and plan your food intake very carefully. People with type 1
diabetes may have to inject insulin as many as four or five times per day which
means testing your blood sugar levels at least that many times. To make things
easier, many people with type 1 diabetes use an insulin pump which regulates the
injection of insulin into your body through a very small need inserted under the
skin.
In addition to insulin injections, dietary changes are also an important part of
current solutions for type 1 diabetes. Many doctors prescribe for type 1 diabetics a
diet that is completely free from starches, processed carbs, and simple sugars. This
kind of diet is incredibly restrictive and it can be difficult to follow. For this reason,
many people do not actually stick to the diet which means that they aren’t effectively
managing their diabetes.
18
Managing Type 2 Diabetes
The management of type 2 diabetes is a little different, although it still
involves medication and dietary changes. Type 2 diabetics do not need to inject
insulin regularly like type 1 diabetics because their body can still produce insulin to
some degree. Where type 2 diabetes differs from type 1 is in the fact that the body
cannot effectively use the insulin being produced – in many cases, the body actually
becomes insulin resistant. For type 2 diabetics, medication is usually prescribed to
help keep blood sugar levels on target. Your blood sugar levels are affected by what
you eat, when you eat, and how much you eat in addition to the type and amount of
exercise you get. Blood sugar levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day but
diabetes medications can help to prevent extreme highs and lows.
Different types of diabetes medication have different effects. Some
medications work by stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin while others
help the body better utilize the insulin being produced. Some medications decrease
the amount of glucose produced by the liver and others help the kidneys to absorb
more glucose from the bloodstream. Many type 2 diabetics take two or three
different types of diabetes medication, sometimes in separate pills and sometimes in
“combination pills” which contain two different medications in one tablet. As is true
for all medications, diabetes medications do have certain side effects which may
include weight gain, fluid retention, increase in bad cholesterol (LDL), liver damage,
and more.
In addition to medications, type 2 diabetics also have to make changes to their
diet and lifestyle to help manage their condition. For many diabetics, a restrictive
diet low in carbohydrates and starch is required. This can severely limit the types of
food you can eat and, if you go off your diet, you could end up with some nasty side
effects. In addition to making dietary changes, you also have to keep up with regular
exercise – at least 30 minutes per day several times a week is recommended. Many
19
people simply cannot motivate themselves to exercise this often, especially if they
are already obese or have physical limitations caused by their diabetes.
Not only does having diabetes take control of your life, affecting your diet
and lifestyle, but it can also take control over your wallet. According to one study,
the average cost of diabetes per person is more than $14,000 per year. If you have
health insurance you may not pay this entire amount out of pocket, but you will be
responsible for higher health insurance premiums and co-pays for your medication
which average about $1,200 per year or more. Can you afford to pay that much every
year on top of making all of the necessary dietary and lifestyle changes? If your
answer is “No” you will be glad to know that there is another option. Keep reading
to learn more about the 11-Day Diabetes Fix.

Chapter Three: Andrew O’Donnell’s Story
Andrew O’Donnell was 56 years old when he suddenly fainted at the bedside
of his recently deceased father in the hospital. At first Andrew blamed the fainting
spell on his grief, but shortly after the event was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
Added to his depression about his father’s death a newfound fear for his own life,
Andrew went on a mission to figure out how to fix his diabetes. His doctor
prescribed him a handful of medications and recommended dietary changes, but
Andrew knew that there had to be another way – a way that didn’t require him to
give up the things he loved and that didn’t shackle him to his blood sugar meter.
During his search, Andrew came across a research study about the effects of
Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins (OPCs) for chronic disease. While the average person
might have no idea what OPCs are, Andrew was already familiar with them because
his sister (a nutrition and exercise psychologist) had fed them to his father after he’d
been diagnosed with end-stage cancer. After doing a little more research, Andrew
came to the conclusion that the OPCs had worked so well that they’d actually killed
21
his father – a shocking but eye-opening discovery. The OPCs had restored Andrew’s
father’s immune system so quickly and so well that the doctors could not give him
the life-saving bone marrow transplant he needed. In order for a bone marrow
transplant to work, the immune system must be incredibly weakened and, for
Andrew’s father, that was no longer the case. In addition to preventing him from
getting the bone marrow transplant, the OPCs had also caused Andrew’s father to
lose a great deal of weight. This would have been fine if he had not already been
dangerously thin as a result of his illness.
After making this discover, Andrew and his sister teamed up to do some
more research on OPCs. When they started researching, neither of them had much
hope that OPCs would be able to help reverse his diabetes – after all, type 2 diabetes
is often described as a metabolic disorders rather than an immune disorder. During
his research, however, Andrew discovered several studies which suggested that
both type 1 and type 2 diabetes were rooted in autoimmune dysfunction.
Furthermore, he found evidence to support the weight loss effects of OPCs. Armed
with this information, Andrew continued to delve deeper, determined to find a way
to use OPCs to his advantage in reversing his diabetes.
With the help of his sister, Andrew compiled a list of OPC-containing foods
and extracts. In doing so, he discovered that not only might OPCs be the key to
weight loss and boosting immune function, but that they might actually mimic the
effects of exercise on the body. With all of these benefits combined, Andrew was
certain that he had the elements needed to create his very own diabetes cure. So,
Andrew and his sister developed a protocol using OPC-rich foods then he tested it
on himself. Not only was Andrew successful in stabilizing his blood sugar levels, but
he actually reversed his diabetes! Now he wants to offer the same opportunity to the
public and thus the 11-Day Diabetes Fix was born.
22
Research to Support Andrew’s Protocol
Earlier in this book you learned the basics about type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
You already know that type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition in which the
body attacks the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Until recently, type 2
diabetes was believed to be primarily a metabolic disorder. According to a study
published in 2011 by Stanford University School of Medicine, however, type 2
diabetes may also have its roots in an autoimmune reaction. Given the results of the
study, researchers now believe that insulin resistance (the defining quality of type 2
diabetes) may be the result of B cells and other immune cells attacking the body. In
performing the study, researchers found that an antibody known as anti-CD20 was
successful in targeting and eliminating mature B cells, effectively stopping type 2
diabetes from developing in lab mice used in the study. Not only did the antibody
stop the development of type 2 diabetes, but it also restored the blood sugar level to
normal.
Several years before the study was conducted the two co-first authors,
brothers Shawn and Daniel Winer, began to suspect that immune cells – primarily B
cells and T cells – played a role in inflammation of the fatty tissues surrounding and
protecting the body’s internal organs. In feeding laboratory mice a high-calorie,
high-fat diet the brothers discovered an increase in this kind of inflammation. As
inflammation increased, the fat cells began to grow faster than the blood supply
which caused them to start dying off, releasing their contents into the bloodstream.
The immune system then released macrophages, or clean-up cells, to mop up the
mess.
Upon closer study of the reaction, the brothers found that the immune cells
gradually inhibited the ability of the body’s remaining fat cells to respond properly
to insulin. As a result, fatty acids began to accumulate in the blood which is known
23
to increase the risk for fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and
insulin resistance – all of these things are also linked to type 2 diabetes. To confirm
their suspicions, the brothers fed laboratory rats a high-calorie, high-fat diet until
they became obese and experienced high blood sugar levels. The brothers then
blocked the action of T cells which prevented the mice from developing diabetes.
Taking things a step further, they then began to investigate B cells and the antibodies
they produced. It was discovered that mice lacking B cells failed to develop insulin
resistance even on a high-calorie and high-fat diet.
After testing their theory on laboratory mice, the Winer brothers went on to
test their theory on humans. They conducted a study on 32 overweight participants
with differing levels of insulin sensitivity. It was discovered that the bodies of those
participants with insulin resistance were producing antibodies against some of their
own proteins. In contrast, the individuals who were not insulin resistant did not
possess those antibodies. Thus the brothers were able to confirm the link between
insulin resistance and autoimmunity.

Chapter Four: Intro to the 11-Day Diabetes Fix
Now that you know the background of the 11-Day Diabetes Fix you may be
curious to learn how it works. There are two main components which are the driving
force behind the mechanism. Part 1 involves increasing your consumption of
Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins (OPCs) to help regulate your blood sugar, induce
weight loss, and to stop the cell stress that contributes to diabetes. Part 2 involves
increasing your consumption of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) to trick
your body into thinking it has already exercised. Both of these can be accomplished
by drinking a simple chocolate shake once a day. Before getting into the details
about the chocolate shake, take a moment to learn more about OPCs and AMPKs.
26
Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins
As you have already learned, OPCs can help to regulate blood sugar, to
induce weight loss, and to reverse and repair the cell stress and inflammation that
contribute to your diabetes. All three of these benefits are essential to the Blood
Sugar Stabilizer. In order to understand how the Blood Sugar Stabilizer works,
however, you first have to learn the details about OPCs including where they come
from and exactly what kind of effects they have on the human body. OPCs are not a
single chemical but a group of compounds that are closely related.
Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins come from a variety of foods, extracts, oils,
and supplements, including the following:
27
 Bilberries  Green Tea
 Black Currant  Hawthorn
 Black Tea  Legumes
 Blueberries  Onions
 Cocoa  Parsley
 Cranberries  Persimmon
 French Pine Bark Extract  Red Wine
 Grape Seed Extract
In addition to the sources listed above, OPCs can also be found in various
flowers, fruits, vegetables, leaves, berries, and nuts. OPCs are typically found in the
highest concentration in the skin, bark, and seeds of various plant species. These
compounds are extremely potent, serving as antioxidants in the human body – OPCs
are effective against several types of oxidizing agents and they help to reduce
inflammation in the tissues as well.
Not only do OPCs act as antioxidants in the body, reducing inflammation in the
tissues and protecting cells against oxidation and cell stress, but they also provide
support for the vascular system. OPCs can help to improve circulation and to prevent
heart disease by improving capillary health – they can also reduce the risk for
neurological disorders by improving blood flow to the brain. More importantly,
however, are the many benefits OPCs have for the symptoms and side effects of type 1
and type 2 diabetes. For example, OPCs have been used in the treatment of diabetic
retinopathy and macular degeneration by reducing blood pressure and repairing blood
vessels in the eyes.
Another example of the benefits of OPCs for diabetes comes from the results of a
study published by the Institute of Natural Medicine in conjunction with the University
of Toyama and various other institutions. This study investigated the effects of
proanthocyanidin in its oligomeric form in laboratory rats with type 2 diabetes. It was
discovered that the proanthocyanidins reduced inflammation, lowered triglyceride
levels, and protected against both hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, thus suggesting
that OPCs may be effective in reversing and repairing the kind of oxidative stress that is
typically caused by diabetes. It was also discovered that OPCs improved glucose
tolerance, providing both anti-diabetic and anti-obesity benefits.
Perhaps the most interesting benefit of OPCs, however, comes from a study
involving the effects of cocoa on type 2 diabetics. According to a study published by the
American Chemical Society, the OPCs found in certain types of cocoa may help to
prevent obesity and type 2 diabetes. The OPCs in cocoa, the primary ingredient in
chocolate, provided the following benefits:
 Improved thinking
 Decreased appetite
 Lowered blood pressure
 Reduced blood sugar levels
 Weight loss
According to one of the authors of the study, Andrew P. Neilson, cocoa is one of
the most flavonol-rich ingredients in existence. Previous studies have shown the
flavonols found in tea and red wine to be effective in helping fight weight gain and type
2 diabetes but OPCs were the most powerful flavonols for providing these benefits.
Additionally, OPCs were found to improve glucose tolerance which may provide
additional help in preventing type 2 diabetes. Test subjects given low doses of OPCs
were protected against gaining excess weight and their blood sugar levels were lowered
as well.
AMP-Activated Protein Kinase
The second key compound involved in the 11-Day Diabetes Fix is AMP-
Activated Protein Kinase, or AMPK. AMPK is a type of enzyme that is composed of two
amino acids – serine and threonine. This enzyme is responsible for telling the body
when to use glucose as fuel in a system that is activated by metabolic stress, or exercise,
and the resulting fuel deprivation. When the AMPK system is activated, it works to
increase cellular ATP generation (fuel) and reduces the use of ATP in less critical
processes such as protein synthesis. As a result, more energy is put toward glucose
transport and the metabolism of fuel in the body.
An interesting example of this concept at work comes from a study of fruit flies
published by Wake Forest University in 2012. The study was conducted by a group of
neurobiologists who were interested in the effects of a decreased diet on fruit flies –
fruit flies and humans share 30% of the same genes and they have similar wiring in the
brain. The results of the study revealed that a reduced diet lead to hyperactivity in fruit
flies. This reaction was caused by AMPK stimulating the secretion of the adipokinetic
hormone – this is the insect equivalent of glucagon in humans, the hormone responsible
for regulating blood glucose levels. The adipokinetic hormone acted opposite of insulin,
sending signals to the body to release stored sugar for fuel. As a result, the bodies of the
flies used up their stored energy until a new source of fuel became available. The
researchers found, however, that when they turned off the AMPK it resulted in
decreased sugar release and it stopped the hyperactive response completely.
The potential diabetes-related applications of this information are many. For
example, activating the AMPK system in a diabetic person could trigger the release of
stored sugar in the cells and increasing fat oxidation, effectively tricking the body into
thinking that it was exercising and triggering weight loss. Controlling the AMPK
system could also improve control of insulin release as well, rendering insulin shots
obsolete. Support for this theory comes from a study that revealed diminished AMPK
activity in the adipose tissue (fat) of obese and insulin-resistant test subjects.
A variety of serine- and threonine-rich foods, extracts, oils, and supplements can
be useful in activating AMPK in the body – these may include the following:
 Almonds  Macadamia Nuts
 Almond Butter  Papaya
 Bee Pollen  Peanuts
 Cashews  Peanut Butter
 Cashew Butter  Pecans
 Chia Seeds  Pine Nuts
 Dairy Products  Sesame Seeds
 Flaxseed  Soy Products
 Garlic  Spirulina
 Gluten  Tahini
 Goji Berries  Turmeric
 Grapefruit  Walnuts
 Hempseed  Whole Wheat
When you consume any of the foods on this list, it will naturally activate the
AMPK system in your body. As a result, your muscle cells will start to take up stored
glucose, your fat cells with become oxidized, and the formation of fat (called lipolysis)
will be inhibited. Essentially, your body will react as it would if you were exercising
and you will lose weight without having to actually change your exercise habits.
The 11-Day Diabetes Fix
By now you should have a thorough understanding of what OPCs and AMPKs
are and how they can help you to reverse your diabetes. Before you head to the grocery
store to stock up on ingredients and make drastic changes to your diet, take a moment
to learn about the key mechanism involved in the 11-Day Diabetes Fix – it is the Blood
Sugar Stabilizer, a simple chocolate shake that you drink once a day to reverse your
diabetes. All you have to do is drink this shake once a day and, in about 11 days, you
will find that your diabetes has been completely eradicated.
So how does it work?
The Blood Sugar Stabilizer is made up of several key ingredients that contain
both OPCs and AMPKs. These ingredients combine to mimic the diabetes-reversing
effects of medication, diet, and exercise which are the three key elements in destroying
diabetes. Drinking this simple shake once a day is all that you need to reverse your
diabetes WITHOUT any of the pain or hard work. Does this sound too good to be true?
Before giving in to your skepticism, take a moment to learn more about the Blood Sugar
Stabilizer and the mixture of ingredients which are proven to:
1. Trick your body into thinking it exercised, encouraging your body to lose
weight without even getting off the couch.
2. Reverse and repair the cell stress and inflammation that may be
contributing to your diabetes.
3. Regulate insulin and automatically trigger weight loss.
In addition to helping you get your diabetes under control in record time, the
Blood Sugar Stabilizer may offer other benefits. For example, this diabetes cure may
have the added benefit of curing erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. According to the
results of a study published in the May-June 2003 issue of the Journal of Sex and Marital
Therapy, treatment with nitric oxide (NO) was successful in restoring sexual ability to
80% of men involved in the study. After three months of treatment, more than 90% of
study participants experienced a normal erection.
If you are ready to experience the benefits of the Blood Sugar Stabilizer for
yourself, simply follow the recipe below.
Blood Sugar Stabilizer Recipe
The Blood Sugar Stabilizer is a simple chocolate shake that is made with a variety
of ingredients that include both OPCs and AMPK-activators. To reverse your diabetes,
all you have to do is drink this shake once a day as part of your normal routine. In just
11 days you will start to notice a variety of benefits including weight loss, fat loss,
regulated blood sugar levels, reduced insulin resistance, and more. Essentially, you will
experience a complete reversal of your diabetes! The recipe for the Blood Sugar
Stabilizer shake is as follows:
Ingredients:
 1 ½ cups organic soy milk
 ½ to 1 cup ice cubes
 2 tablespoons organic cocoa powder
 2 tablespoons natural almond butter
 1 tablespoon chia seeds
 200 mg grape seed extract powder
Instructions:
1. Combine all of the ingredients in a high-speed blender.
2. Pulse the ingredients several times to chop.
3. Blend the ingredients on high-speed for 30 to 60 seconds until smooth.
4. Pour the smoothie into a large glass and enjoy immediately.
This is the basic recipe for the Blood Sugar Stabilizer chocolate shake. Not only is
it easy to prepare, but it is full of chocolate flavor as well! You should prepare and enjoy
this shake once a day as part of your regular routine and, in about 11 days, you will
start to notice a big change. If you are not a fan of chocolate, or if you get bored of this
recipe, there are plenty of ways to change it up. For example, you can add to this basic
recipe one or two of the following ingredients:
 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
 1 cup fresh or frozen sliced papaya
 1 to 2 tablespoons natural cashew butter
 1 to 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
 1 to 2 tablespoons organic tahini
 1 tablespoon ground hempseed
 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
 2 tablespoons raw almonds
 2 tablespoons raw cashews

 2 tablespoons raw pecans
 2 tablespoons raw macadamia nuts
 2 tablespoons raw walnuts
If you like the chocolate flavor of the shake but want to mix up the ingredients a
little bit, try substituting whole milk or almond milk for the soy milk and peanut butter
or cashew butter for the almond butter. You can swap any kind of nuts or seeds for the
chia seeds in the recipe and feel free to add more or less cocoa powder to suit your
tastes. If you find that the recipe isn’t quite sweet enough, add some natural sweetener
like honey, agave nectar, or stevia powder. You can also add ½ to 1 teaspoon of certain
dried supplement powders like green tea extract, dried parsley, garlic powder, bee
pollen, and spirulina.
Chapter Five: Serving Suggestions for OPCs and AMPKs
If you manage your diabetes with insulin or other medications, you may feel like
you have things under control. If you really think about it, however, you will realize
that you aren’t in control – your diabetes is. Your diabetes dictates what, when and how
much you can eat – it even determines how you feel throughout the day. Relying on
insulin essentially makes you a junkie. As long as you keep “shooting up” you feel fine,
but the moment you stop taking it your body will go into debilitating (and life-
threatening) withdrawal. The only way to lead a truly healthy and independent life is to
kick the habit for good. Don’t medicate… eradicate!
If you are tired of being a slave to your diabetes, the 11-Day Diabetes Fix may be
just the thing you need. In the same way that your insulin shots regulate your blood
sugar by tricking your body into thinking that it produces and utilizes the right amount
of insulin on its own, so does the Blood Sugar Stabilizer manipulate your body. When
you drink the delicious chocolate shake, your body will be tricked into thinking that
you have already exercised. As a result, it will release stored sugars and oxidize fat,
causing you to lose weight. As your body returns to a healthy weight and your blood
sugar stabilizes, your diabetes will become less and less of a problem until it disappears
completely. What more could you ask for?
Even if you are ready to give the Blood Sugar Stabilizer a try, however, you
might still have a few questions. For example, if sugar is so problematic for people with
diabetes, why is chocolate so good for them? The answer is simple – the Blood Sugar
Stabilizer is made with cocoa powder, not chocolate. Cocoa powder is what is left over
after the cocoa butter has been extracted from raw cacao beans. In addition to being rich
in OPCs, cocoa powder is also a good source of calcium, copper, phosphorus,
magnesium, potassium, zinc and sodium. Cocoa powder also contains over 2,000mg of
theobromine per 100 grams and it contains up to 10% of its weight in flavonoids.
While cocoa powder is the key ingredient in the Blood Sugar Stabilizer, there are
other valuable ingredients that you can add to your diet to increase the benefits you
receive from the 11-Day Diabetes Fix. Adding other OPC-rich foods and AMPK
activators to your diet is easier than you might think. Below you will find serving
suggestions for OPC-rich foods and AMPK-activators:
Tips for Increasing Your Consumption of OPCs:
 Swap out your morning coffee for a mug of green tea or black tea.
 Take an oral grape seed extract or French pine bark extract supplement once a
day, following the dosage instructions.
 Enjoy a cup of fresh blueberries with yogurt for breakfast or as a snack with your
daily lunch.
 Make an effort to consume 1 cup of legumes daily – this includes things like
black beans, chickpeas, lentils, and peas.
 Drink one glass of red wine with dinner several times per week.
 Add one cup of fresh or frozen cranberries to your Blood Sugar Stabilizer shake
each day.
 Cook with onions to add flavor to your favorite dishes or add raw onions to a
fresh green salad.
Adding AMPK-Activators to Your Diet:
 Enjoy unsalted almonds, cashews, pecans, or other nuts as a protein-rich snack
between meals.
 Have a slice or two of whole-wheat toast with almond butter, cashew butter or
peanut butter for breakfast.
 Drink at least one glass of dairy milk or soy milk every day.
 Enjoy organic dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt at least several times
per week.
 Sprinkle chia seeds, hempseed, flaxseeds, or sesame seeds on your yogurt,
salads, and smoothies.
 When eating pasta, bread, or other carb-loaded foods choose whole-grain options
if available.
 Cook with garlic, turmeric, and curry powder at least once a week.
 Enjoy fresh papaya, grapefruit, and goji berries with yogurt or as a snack at least
once a week.

Chapter Six: Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the 11-Day Diabetes Fix and the Blood Sugar
Stabilizer shake has been covered in this book. Even after reading everything, however,
you may find that you still have questions. In this chapter you will find a collection of
frequently asked questions about the 11-Day Diabetes Fix to help you further
understand the protocol and to help you maximize your results.
Q: Who does the 11-Day Diabetes Fix work for?

A: The beauty of the 11-Day Diabetes Fix is that it works for anyone and everyone who
has been diagnosed with diabetes. If you are overweight or obese, have high cholesterol
or high blood pressure, and lead a largely inactive life, then this program is perfect for
you. If you are like many diabetics, you may have experienced a wake-up call recently.
Many men with diabetes develop erectile dysfunction and anyone with diabetes has the
potential to develop eye problems, circulation issues, and heart disease. If you’ve
started to develop complications due to your diabetes, now is the perfect time to begin
the 11-Day Diabetes Fix. Do it before it is too late!
Q: Should I stop taking my diabetes medications while using the 11-Day

Diabetes Fix?
A: Only your doctor can answer this question for you. While the prescription
medications you are taking may be prescribed to manage your diabetes, they could also
play a role in the treatment of other underlying conditions. It is never a good idea to
suddenly stop taking a medication your doctor has prescribed unless your doctor
recommends it. Continue to take your medications as you go through the 11-Day
Diabetes Fix. Once you have reversed your diabetes and no longer experience
symptoms you can get your doctor’s permission to stop taking your medications
because you will no longer need them.
Q: Do I need to make any changes to my diet or exercise habits?

A: For many people, the main draw of the 11-Day Diabetes Fix is that it is so simple to
implement. You do not have to follow a restrictive diet or commit to a complicated
exercise plan – all you have to do is drink the Blood Sugar Stabilizer drink once a day.
In fact, the 11-Day Diabetes Fix is a two-part protocol designed to mimic the effects of
dietary changes and exercise. When you start eating OPC-rich foods and add AMPK-
activators to your diet, your body will react as though you are actually exercising. Your
body will start to release stored glycogen and oxidize fat, just as it would if your body
were deprived of fuel due to exercise. As a result, your blood sugar levels will stabilize
and you will start to lose weight. It is as easy as that!
Q: How will I know if the 11-Day Diabetes Fix is working?
A: Different people will react differently to the 11-Day Diabetes Fix – this is true for any
dietary protocol or lifestyle change. You will know that the protocol is working,
however, when the symptoms and complications associated with your diabetes start to
disappear. If you test your blood sugar on a regular basis, for example, you may notice
that you stop experiencing extreme highs and lows – your blood sugar will start to even
out and approach a normal level. If you take insulin shots every day, you may find that
you do not need them as often. Additional signs you may notice include reduced LDL
cholesterol levels, normalized blood pressure, and weight loss.
Q: Why does the 11-Day Diabetes Fix also work for erectile dysfunction?
A: For many men, an additional benefit associated with the 11-Day Diabetes Fix is the
correction of erectile dysfunction. It has been estimated that as many as 35% to 75% of
men with diagnosed diabetes will experience some level of ED at some point in their
lifetime. When you start the 11-Day Diabetes Fix, however, you may notice that this
condition improves as well. Proanthocyanidins, half of the two-part mechanism driving
the 11-Day Diabetes Fix, have been shown to improve blood flow. When you start the
11-Day Diabetes Fix, problems with circulation and blood vessel damage will start to
disappear and so will your erectile dysfunction.
Q: Can I use French Pine Bark Extract instead of Grape Seed Extract?
A: Both French pine bark extract and grape seed extract contain high levels of OPCs.
French pine bark extract is derived from the bark of a maritime pine species native to
southwestern France. The name of the US registered trademark for this extract is
Pycnogenol – this product is used to treat circulation problems, asthma, high blood
pressure, erectile dysfunction, and diabetes. It can also be used to improve heart and
blood vessel health. Grape seed extract is derived from the seeds of red wine grapes and
it too has been used to treat poor circulation, high cholesterol, and various conditions
related to diabetes. The main difference between the two extract is that grape seed
extract contains between 92% and 95% OPCS and pine bark extract ranges from 80% to
85% OPCs. You can use either extract in your Blood Sugar Stabilizer shake, just be sure
to follow dosage recommendations.
Q: What is the nutritional information for the Blood Sugar Stabilizer

shake?
A: The nutritional information for the Blood Sugar Stabilizer shake will vary depending
on the ingredients you use. If you follow the recipe as presented, the shake will contain
approximately 415 calories including 29 grams of carbs, 28 grams of fat, 23 grams of
protein, 10 grams of sugar, and 13 grams of fiber. You can reduce the calorie count of
the shake by swapping in unsweetened almond milk for the soy milk or by dropping
the almond butter from 2 tablespoons to 1 tablespoon. If you change the recipe,
however, you may not receive the same benefits. If you are worried about consuming
too many calories, your best bet may to drink the shake as a meal replacement or
decrease your calorie consumption at your other meals.
Q: Do I need to consult my doctor before beginning this program?

A: It is always a good idea to consult your doctor before making any drastic changes to
your diet or lifestyle. The 11-Day Diabetes Fix is not really a drastic change, however –
it is just a chocolate shake loaded with OPCs and AMPK-activating ingredients. If you
plan to make other changes to your diet or lifestyle in conjunction with the 11-Day
Diabetes fix it would be a good idea to inform your doctor – especially if you suffer
from heart problems or other medical complications related to your diabetes.
Q: If being overweight contributes to my diabetes, why do my diabetes

medications make me fat?
A: There are side effects that come with any medication and many diabetics find that
their diabetes medications make them gain weight. Since obesity is a risk factor for
diabetes, the fact that diabetes medications can make you gain weight is of great cause
for concern. But why exactly do your medications make you fat? When you have
diabetes, your body has trouble transporting glucose to your muscle and brain cells to
be burned as fuel – it also means that excess glucose can’t be stored in your fat cells.
With insufficient insulin to activate the transport of glucose, you end up excreting most
of the excess through your urine – this is why weight loss is often associated with type 1
diabetes. When you start taking insulin shots or other diabetes medications, however, it
kicks your body back into full gear and you start storing the extra glucose as fat. In
cases where taking insulin causes hypoglycemia as a side effect, people often end up
eating more to prevent drops in blood sugar – this, too can lead to weight gain.
Q: Should I keep drinking the Blood Sugar Stabilizer shake after the 11
days?
A: Absolutely! The 11-Day Diabetes Fix is a program designed to reverse your diabetes
permanently and you should start to see results in as few as 11 days. When you start to
see results, don’t stop drinking the shake! The longer you follow the program, the more
stable your blood sugar will become, the more weight you will lose, and the better you
will feel. After you get back to a healthy weight and blood sugar level you may choose
to drink the Blood Sugar Stabilizer shake a few times a week instead of every day. This
is also the perfect time to try some of the tips listed in the previous chapter for
increasing your intake of OPCs and AMPK-activating foods.
Conclusion
After reading this book you should have a deeper and more thorough
understanding of your diabetes and how it can affect your life. Prior to reading this
book you may have been one of many who assume that diabetes is a permanent
condition that can be managed but not cured. Now, however, you know the truth – not
only can you reduce your diabetes symptoms and prevent complications, but you can
actually reverse your diabetes starting in as little as 11 days!
The 11-Day Diabetes Fix is not a protocol that was developed overnight – it is the
result of long hours spent researching and compiling information about new
technologies and developments in diabetic medicine. In reading this book you have
received a summary of all of the most important information you need to know about
diabetes and its management, especially as it relates to the 11-Day Diabetes Fix. This
protocol is simple to understand and even simpler to follow – all you have to do is
drink the Blood Sugar Stabilizer chocolate shake once a day and watch your diabetes
completely disappear?
If you are like many of the people diagnosed with diabetes each and every year,
you may have spent the better part of your life believing that you were doomed to a life
controlled by blood sugar tests and insulin shots. Thanks to the Blood Sugar Stabilizer
as part of the 11-Day Diabetes Fix, however, you can take back control of your life! After
less than two weeks on the program you will find that you no longer need your insulin
shots and you will even start to lose weight! Your doctor will be amazed at your
progress and eager to learn your secret. So, if you are ready to take back control of your
life and to say goodbye to diabetes for good, get started with the 11-Day Diabetes Fix
today! What do you have to lose?
