Imagine you’re a mechanic. Your day starts with fixing cars damaged in accidents, which likely satisfies you since it’s your job.
Now, picture being a doctor. You see patients needing medical attention daily. Similarly, treating more patients means more income.
But let’s pause here. I’m Dr. Richard Jacoby, a peripheral nerve surgeon with decades of experience and authorship.
The parallel between mechanics and doctors might seem odd. Yet, it highlights a crucial point: both professions thrive on fixing problems, not preventing them.
However, this doesn’t mean we should accept it as the only way. Especially in healthcare, where prevention could save more than costs—it could save lives.
Many diseases today stem from our lifestyle choices. Contrary to popular belief, not all conditions require medication or surgery. Often, better nutrition and more exercise are the keys.
At drjacoby.academy, I advocate for a shift towards preventative health. One of the significant steps? Cutting out sugar.
Especially for those with diabetes, this advice could be transformative. My Urban Carnivore course is designed to show how impactful these changes can be.
So, why is this shift necessary? It’s simple. By adopting a preventative mindset, we can work towards a healthier future for everyone.
In my view, the cause of diabetes is painfully simple.The cause is sugar, and my research bears this out. There’s just too much sugar in our diets these days.
Everything we eat processed has the nutrients stripped out, and sugar becomes the replacement.
We should consume meat and leafy green vegetables.
What Causes Diabetes?
In addition, you will notice astonishing health changes once you revert to what many people today see as a relatively spartan diet of meat and leafy green vegetables.
My name is Dr. Richard Jacoby. I’m a podiatrist and one of the foremost peripheral nerve surgeons in the world.
My book—indeed my entire life’s work—explores how sugar has taken over our diets. I’ve seen that it’s time to immediately cut sugar from our diets!
What is more important, especially true for people whose bodies are epigenetically prone to express insulin insecurities. The results can be deadly when coupled with the massive sugar in our modern diet.
My name is Dr. Richard Jacoby, and I’m a podiatrist and one of the foremost peripheral nerve surgeons in the world.
I’m also the author of the critically acclaimed book, “Sugar Crush,” which talks about how sugar has taken over our diets and now causes dozens of chronic diseases.
Sugar is a chemical, so when we overeat sugar, the sheathing surrounding our nerves shrinks, compressing the nerves themselves.
At the same time, the sugar bloats or expands the nerves, further complicating their compression against the sheathing.
Both reactions cut off blood supply to the nerves, which in turn cuts off sensation, causing debilitation: weakness.
When expressed in the upper extremities—arms—and the median nerve in the wrist, this chronic debilitation can manifest itself as carpal tunnel syndrome.
But it doesn’t stop there.
When expressed in the ulnar nerve of the elbow, you get pain and weakness.
You get pain and weakness when expressed in the common peroneal nerve of the legs.
When expressed in the olfactory or hypoglossal nerves, we see symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.
And so on.
Excessive Sugar Causing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
In short, many diseases we take for granted have the exact root cause.
And that cause is sugar.
Therefore, it’s time to cut sugar out of our diets immediately!
To help you do this, I’ve created a new online course called The Urban Carnivore.
What would happen if we got ourselves off this modern, debilitating diet and put ourselves back on a diet our bodies were fundamentally built to accept?
