Labels on 음식 containers are great, since they provide us with nutrition facts. They tell us the calories per serving and the total fats, carbohydrates, sodium, dietary fiber, protein and sugars. Of course, there is the list of ingredients listed on the label as well. The product label may even state this particular 음식 item was manufactured on shared equipment with products that may contain 나무, 트리 nuts and/or peanuts. This is vital due to children and adults who have a life-threatening allergy to nuts. Other 음식 allergens include, but are not limited to the following: wheat, gluten (proteins found in wheat), corn, soy, whey, dairy, fruits and seafood. Labels provide the consumers with not only important nutritional information, but a possible life 또는 death situation if they don’t read the label.
Why is it then that we accept the “diabetic” label? After all, diabetes is a disease caused 의해 an insulin deficiency and characterized 의해 an increased amount of sugar in the blood and urine. Basically, 당신 either don’t have enough insulin 또는 the body cannot properly utilize what it has. The disease is diabetes, not the person. The “diabetic” label is saying this child 또는 adult is a disease. This is incorrect, since they can live as if they don’t have diabetes. The symptoms of diabetes will only appear if your blood sugar is high for a long time. If your blood sugars stay close to the normal readings, it is impossible to have diabetes symptoms. Life is not perfect, but it is possible to bury this “diabetic” label and be healthier than someone who does not have diabetes. I believe the “diabetic” label should be banned! This label has devastated so many children and adults. I have heard the cries for 28 years, starting with the treatment center. I have heard it from patients while working at the hospital and clinics. I have heard it from adults, who have attended my book signings. One lady said, in tears, “My doctor called me a ‘sick diabetic.’” When is this emotional and mental abuse going to stop? Enough is enough! I’m even 더 많이 shocked this “diabetic label abuse” continues today. If 당신 are a health care professional, do not use the “diabetic” label, ever. Even if 당신 are not a health care professional, do not use it. The damage that has been caused 의해 this label can sometimes take a long time for my clients to heal from. Once they do, not only are they healthy mentally, but physically, too! Finally, they can start to enjoy life!
Diabetes 또는 any other health challenge does not define who people are, they define what diabetes 또는 any other health challenge is to them. Once people bury the “diabetic” label, it can no longer 사워, 사 우 어 their life! Because they have self-worth, which means they are worthy of love. They will not allow anyone to disrespect them. The 다음 time 당신 hear someone use the word “diabetic,” correct them. Sometimes, people don’t realize what they are saying when they ask if 당신 are a “diabetic.” Educate them! Explain to them that if they had cancer, 당신 would not call them a “canceretic.” In fact, right now as I type the word canceretic, my computer’s spell check is letting me know it is not even a word in the dictionary. Why then do 당신 suppose the word “diabetic” is?
I believe it is very important to focus on what 당신 want in life. To me, that includes excellent health. I never focus on what I don’t want. Once 당신 know what 당신 want, 당신 can get started right away. Today is the 일 to make your fresh start. I know 당신 can do it! The choice is yours, 당신 just have to believe and have faith as 당신 step 앞으로 taking one step at a time. Remember to not dig up the “diabetic” label. Instead, focus on your hopes and dreams. Yes, 당신 too can be happy and healthy!
