Obesity, Diabetes, And Life Expectancy

Tied Together


"Based on the research and information I have on November 20, 2007 the following makes sense to me," Harlan Jacobsen Copyright ©2007

Get Control Of All Three Without Further Delay
You are not statistically likely to die directly from obesity or from diabetes.
You will most likely die of Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease as the No.1 killer in the adult population of Western societies.
Now the risk factors associated with its development have been shown to be greatly increased when you have already progressed to Obesity and/or Diabetes
What we consider just manifestations of the ONE big overall disease, we call Modernitits, an accumulation and body survivor system reaction to modern day input and life style.

What plays a central role in all this is the insulin resistance syndrome, which includes hyperinsulinemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and off course this increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, as well as all the other "Modernitis" diseases usually referred to as degenerative diseases.

The incidence of Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes reported has essentially doubled in the U.S. in the last 12 years and the climb rate accelerates. This means they have not only not found a cure, or even a treatment that works, for either one. The facts are, they have not even been able to slow down the rate of increase.

Key to all this is a build up of cell resistance to high levels of insulin, a result of your survival system attempts to force disposal of dangerous to the body high blood sugar levels (peaks)

This is a "self defense" action by your survivor system to the danger of damage of high body levels of insulin produced as a result of your body operating system using high levels of insulin to force cell acceptance of sugar and control these High Sugar Peaks.

Your Input (eating or drinking) of concentrated sugar (or starch) "high glycemic" food and drinks, (digests to blood sugar almost immediately) results in increased production of this (fat making) hormone (main job is fat making) by the pancreas and ensuing hyperinsulinemia.

High insulin levels produced to protect your body from high blood sugar peak damage becomes the LONG TERM villain that will lead to obesity and long term body damage that will be what is most likely to result in your early premature demise. Studies show those with high insulin levels die younger and that the only thing the over extended longevity group have in common is they all have low insulin levels.

Studies show that a build up of obesity accelerates the development of insulin resistance and advances you much faster to irreversible diabetes which really puts you in a state that compounds ever getting back to full health.

Just being overweight (obese) (not yet diagnosed with diabetes) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular and degenerative diseases in adults.

On the basis of current knowledge and extrapolation from studies in adults, it is reasonable to suggest that lifestyle and modern food and drink input modification and the resulting weight control should together greatly reduce the risk of developing the insulin resistance syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and all the other degenerative diseases, (do it to yourself diseases) now listed as killing 82% of Americans.

The association of obesity with the insulin resistance syndrome and cardiovascular and other degenerative disease risk is not only related to the degree of obesity but also seems to be critically dependent on body fat distribution. Thus, individuals with greater degrees of central (central belly fat) develop this syndrome more frequently than do those with a peripheral body fat. (pear shape)

Blood pressure is greatly affected by both obesity and diabetes and is one of the clear indicators of life expectancy, is and indicator of how well you are managing your blood pressure levels by doing the right things.
