Let’s break the vicious cycle of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The consumption of high fat diet and high glycemiac index diet.

Over-stimulation of the digestive system to digest the diet high in carbohydrates and fats.

Unlimited absorption of numerous carbohydrate, fat and protein breakdown products.

High blood levels of glucose, free fatty acids and amino acids.

Weight gain and the onset of obesity.

Establishment of glucotoxicity, lipotoxicity and aminotoxicity.

Insulin resistance, reduced insulin secretion, pancreatic β-cell depletion, type 2 diabetes.

Excessive hunger.

What is the vicious cycle of type 2 diabetes?

  • The consumption of high-glycemic index and high-fat diet leads to amplified digestion and nutrient absorption.
  • The subsequent chronic exposure of tissues to high plasma levels of glucose, fatty acids and amino acids causes:
    • tissue resistance to the actions of insulin and at a later stage,
    • reduction of insulin release, pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

How do we break this cycle?

Βlocking amplified digestion surgically.

We surgically block the amplified digestion observed in type 2 diabetes.

By cutting the vagus nerve:

The neurogenic signals—coming from the mouth, brain, stomach and intestine—of the biliopancreatic secretion are inhibited.

By by-passing food from the proximal intestine:

The endocrine stimulation of biliopancreatic secretion is inhibited.

Inhibition of the cephalic phase of pancreatic secretion.

Inhibition of the gastric phase of pancreatic secretion.

Inhibition of intestinal phase of pancreatic secretion.

Brain

Inhibition of bile secretion and flow.

Inhibition of exocrine pancreatic secretion.

By-passing cells of the duodenum-proximal intestine.
