描述
Dead Man Walking discovers how iron, free radicals, and missing minerals may play a role in promoting inflammation and chronic disease.
At 55, I learned that I had hemochromatosis…a rare and hereditary iron loading disorder. I was also an “out of control diabetic” with serious health problems. I had an A1C over 14 and my fasting glucose was 450. I also had diabetic retinopathy, early impaired cognition, chronic depression, and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Basically, I was a “dead man walking.”
Eighteen months later my A1C had stabilized to below 6. My fasting glucose was around 90... without medication. My eyesight was back to normal. Today, in my seventies, I’m healthier than I’ve been in years...maybe ever. I have great mental function, unlimited energy and use a sleep app and document better sleep metrics than most humans.
I began reading everything I could get my hands on. I sorted through thousands of scientific journals. I looked at diabetes, inflammation, autoimmune disorders and more. Many of these articles were very esoteric and arcane, but I began to connect the dots.
Serendipitously, this focus would lead to amazing insights and revelations regarding the dominant and ubiquitous role that iron, free radicals, and missing minerals play in catalyzing inflammation, diabetes and other chronic diseases. This is my story.
