Diabetes - Canola - Hydrogenated Oils - The Silent Killers
"In addition, a recent report from the EPA (1998) states that
they have
classified canola oil as a biopesticide which ..."has low chronic
toxicities". Further, they say that no studies have been done
regarding
toxic effects on Humans. The fact that they state that it is a pesticide
and that there have been no studies, plus the fact it is a GM food,
says to
us it is something to stay away from! It is like so many other things
"they" say are good for us like fluoride, canola oil and
fluoride both
accumulate and build up in the Human systems."
How Do Trans Fatty Acids Cause Non-Insulin
Diabetes?
The body makes protein from normal amino acids. Normal meaning
amino acids
which the body is genetically used to. Properly structured protein
is
needed for insulin to be effective in reducing sugar in the blood.
Protein
is also derived from fats. By consuming abnormally changed molecular
essential fatty acids, abnormal proteins are produced by the body.
The
abnormal proteins cannot properly synthesize the insulin in its'
metabolic
state. The insulin eventually becomes ineffective in reducing sugar
in the
blood stream. Hyperinsuliemia is the end result. The body then starts
producing more and more insulin to control sugar while at the same
time
becoming more ineffective in controlling blood sugar. This has been
directly linked concerning prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are made
from
essential fatty acids. Research by researchers at the Division of
Science,
Northeast Missouri State University have shown that the central
mechanism
for pancreatic insulin production is mediated by prostaglandins.
It is not
an autonomic response as once thought. Autonomic means that which
a normal
body responds to or makes. These findings have been confirmed by
other
research studies in Germany, the Massachusetts General Hospital,
Boston and
by about half a dozen other researchers. Included in some of this
research
are in-depth studies of the roles of properly naturally occurring
structured essential fatty acids and how they inter-relate in making
not
only the correct amount of insulin, but most importantly its' effectiveness
in the bloodstream in reducing blood sugar. Dr. Holman and his colleagues
at the Hormel Institute at the University of Minnesota have shown
that
trans- fatty acids disrupt cellular function. They affect many enzymes
such
as the delta-6 desaturase and consequently interfere with the necessary
conversions of both the omega-6 and the omega-3 essential fatty
acids to
their elongated forms. They consequently escalate the adverse effects
of
essential fatty acid deficiency. Dr. Lenore Kohlmeier in Finland
completed
a study on 700 women, (300 of them had breast cancer). The study
included
the analysis of the tissue fat cells of the women. Dr. Kohlmeier
issued
this statement, "women who have higher stores of trans fatty
acids have a
1.4 times, ( approximately 55%) higher risk of developing breast
cancer."
Additional work by several researchers have also shown that trans
fatty
acids produced in the hydrogenation of oils process are the culprits.
This
is why in the 1940's when non insulin type II diabetes started to
appear
that the medical community was dumbfounded to what was causing it."
