Blood tests are a racquet for prescribing pharma products, or if you are a functional Dr. a shitload of supplements. Most people completely ignore their body signals & have 0 trust in their own intuition. The numbers MUST tell them how they feel…
I've had a lot of experience with blood tests: what you say is absolutely correct. One exception is the test for blood glucose. They seem to be quite accurate and provide an opportunity to avoid diabetes.
My husband's PSA test was negative, which turned out to be a 'false negative'. No scan, 2nd test or treatment. It metastasised like a wildfire and took his life within 2 years.
Or look at diabetes. Your fasting glucose can be "normal" while you're already well down the path toward metabolic dysfunction. By the time your HbA1c shows you're diabetic, you've probably been insulin resistant for years.
EKG you are absolutely correct on your above statement. On youtoob, dr Pradip states that there is no such thing as pre-diabetic. As soon as a person is insulin resistant, they are already in a diabetic status.
I agree on the lab stats too. But I think the PsA is way lower than 70% valid. I read an article very recently about “The Great PSA Scam”. Ill paste it here if I can find it!
Mari, not all diabetes is Type2, caused by insulin resistance.
Type 1 is caused by a die-off of beta cells, mostly attributed to an auto immune disease, so zero insulin production. It cannot be treated by diet.
Type 2 is caused by insulin resistance: all of the cells are supposed to store circulating sugar for slow release but when the insulin tells them to 'open up', they refuse. A low carb diet is extremely beneficial for this group.
Type 3c is when the pancreas suffers chronic inflammation which damages or destroys a lot of the beta cells. There is insulin production, but very little, so the sugar is not packed away and continues to circulate in the blood, often causing damage similar to untreated Type 2. An excruciatingly low carb diet is necessary for survival and insulin would help enormously but most GPs and the greater majority of endocrinologists don't recognize Type 3c.
Yes yes. I understand. There are less common forms of diabetic insulin resistance, but the vast majority of type two is due to consuming soda, sugar, carb packed processed foods, bread, poisoned by glyphosate, and garbage food. Like seed oils, energy drinks, candy. That’s why there is an explosion of diabetes in America. But yes, if you want to dissect the minority of cases such as what you have explained above, it’s OK and you’re right. But I’m talking about the type to diabetics that go around thinking they have pre-diabetes when in fact they’re just uninterested in good health and or obese from eating too much of all the wrong things.

Or reverse it by a diet of low carb - skip the sugar. 😉
Found it!!
The PSA test has a high false-positive rate of up to 80%, leading to many unnecessary biopsies and treatments.

wow.. sorry to hear that...
