DEPRESSION ACTUALLY CAUSED BY TOXINS IN HUMAN BODY

DEPRESSION  ACTUALLY CAUSED BY TOXINS IN HUMAN BODY

Do you know depression,  terribly bad moods or outright mental health problems are not actually caused/ sustained by bad circumstances or  bereavement  or loneliness?

Really? Yes! Depression, terribly bad moods, most mental health problems,  even constant tantrums by little children  have their main causes or roots in the toxic load inside the person's body.

I searched for meaning of depression online
- details below:
Depression is a common, serious mood disorder characterised by persistent sadness, loss of interest, fatigue, and cognitive changes lasting at least two weeks.

THINGS NOTED
From  various definitions and descriptions, I note that the causes of depression are said to stem from
*Genetic i.e. hereditary - why is that? Let's explore this together. Have you heard it said of some families that mental health problem runs in  their lineage - in every generation of such a family, at least one or more family members have had mental health problems? Why? This may just be a physical health issue.

The amount of toxins that build up in a person can become so much that it affects their mental health causing depression, terrible mood swings or even short or prolong insanity.

From  my findings,  traumatic life event or bad circumstances is said to be a  trigger or risk factor and not a cause. So a person with considerable toxic load in their body system from  any one or more of these - air pollution, some medications, food, drinks including water, body care products may be triggered into depression or insane behaviour like harming themselves or others.

Due to one reason or another, even if triggered, they may be able to prevent serious prolonged depression or insanity in their lifetime, in spite of the toxic load in them.  But as a result of having  such toxic load in their blood, if they have offspring, these toxins predisposing to mental health  issues may be inherited through the genes by one or more of the offspring. So at least one offspring  may be a carrier of factors causing that mental health problem.

But in spite of carrying such toxic loads in their genes, any one or more of the offspring who live a very healthy lifestyle  may never have any serious mental health issue. But note that not every depression, which most people that have passed or passing through earth have experienced is due to genetics.

*Environmental factors - Depression may be due to environmental factors - air pollution  mainly and other means by which toxins get into the body. The depression can then be triggered by circumstances or issues that usually make people feel sad or depressed.

Have you noticed that there are people that do not fall into depression or have been depressed before but never again no matter what happens? There is of course  stamina built spiritually and emotionally  that help people overcome or live beyond depression.

What I have found prayer does is that God either helps the person to know what to do  to counteract the causes/triggers of depression or puts the person in situation/around people that can steer away what can cause depression.

Have you noticed also that there are people and/or environments that seem all out to get people depressed? I know  very well about being nearby people who seem very desperate to make others depressed even if it means harming themselves as well.

Don't let them get under your skin. Just know what your rights are and gather enough evidence if they cross the lines. Meanwhile wish them well and pray they will be willing to deal with the root causes of their problems.

*Biological -  this should be depression or hormonal issues caused by living organisms. A person having biological toxins like worms infestation, viruses, bacteria or fungi would feel discomforts which can affect moods. You may have heard of rabies infection caused by being bitten by a dog which led to the person having mental health problems. Things like that can be swiftly counteracted- discussion for another time.

*Chronic illness  - sickness or pains in the body especially if prolonged can cause feelings of depression or affect the mental state . I believe in prayers. The causes or aggravators of the illness especially a prolonged one  may be unknown to the person, loved ones or even the health care providers. I know God is omniscient -all-knowing.

There are sicknesses caused by the sick person or other people inadvertently or even deliberately. For instance, until recently, the medical field claimed that the cause(s) of cancer was unknown. So people often did things that  grew or prolonged cancers in their bodies and the chronic disease affected their mental state.

Some answers to health problems come not always as supernatural - a miracle, but in people knowing the cause(s) or aggravator(s) and stopping them or tackling them. 

Depression  can lead to severe long-term effects like cardiovascular disease,. While being very sad can affect hormonal balance, cardiovascular problems are usually caused by toxic load in the blood which then affects the heart, related tissues and organs.

SOLUTIONS
Having known that the main cause of Depression or even outright mental health problem is primarily due to toxic load in the body, what then is a major solution?
Detoxify  - reduce or if possible, eliminate toxic loads in the body - they cause 'bad blood'' i.e impurities in the blood which then affects brain chemistry negatively.

You may have noriced that when you take lots of highly refined foods, sugary stuffs, or some delicacies  afterwards - hours or days  later, you just have a feeling of lethargy -  sort of laziness or body unwilling to be very active. You may even have had serious body disconforts and this may have affected your mood.

If a child is consrantly having tantrums, check what that child is eating, drinking, body care products being used and  the environmental situation - any air pollution(s).   Make adjustments as much as possible for healthier options. There is of course still the need for character training

Alcohol
For adults who drink liquor, smoke or take hard substance(s):  have you noticed the tendencies towards depression or extremist behaviour bordering on mental health problems afterwards? It is still the same logic  - toxic substances have got into their bodies causing serious hormonal imbalances including some brain dysfunction.

Non-substance users
These days, with most food, soft drinks,  polluted air, medicines, there are toxic substances but the toxic load per intake is just less than that of alcohol or other hard substances.

So prioritise  mental well-being over hard substances. Avoid toxins in food, drinks, medicines, air, body care products. Let's keep calling out wrong practices that allow inclusion of toxic substances in production of  food, drinks, medications, body care products  and in the pollution of the environment. 

If feeling constantly  depressed, aside other circumstantial or emotional issues, there is very likely toxic build-up in your body. When you know there are toxins build-up in your body system, especially at this  celebration period when people tend to eat and drink merrily , detoxify before the toxins start messing with the brain and hormones.

Simple things to take
Fresh organic - grown leaves, spices, seeds help expel toxins from the body. The purer - naturally-bred they were produced the more effective. Most salads these days are made from ingredients that are highly-commercialised with high likelihood of toxic substances in their production. So they may not be as effective in helping to remove toxins from your body.  Ensure you get fresh pure naturally grown edible leaves, spices and seeds for cleansing the body system of toxins.
Exercises and spending time around vegetation also helps.

BETTER HAVE VIABLE SEEDS IN PLANTS AND FRUITS YOU EAT

Genesis1.29 - "And God said, See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the land and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food.'

Why was God so very particular  about telling humanity at creation that it is every plant yielding SEED and every tree with SEED in its fruit that He has given humans for food?

Yet there are those  who have been removing seeds out of plants and fruits to limit humans' access to seeds?

It's not supposed to be a mystery but somehow there have been attempts to hide something so very crucial to the well-being of humans.

Seeds from pure-bred plants  and fruits are solutions to most, perhaps even all of humanity's health problems and they are supposed to be easily available to all.

Why is something so crucial not being made so clear?

You see,  WITHOUT God Science is either Stupidity or Wickedness.

AVOIDING SERIOUS HEALTH MISHAPS THIS CHRISTMAS SEASON


During Yuletide there have been records of people suddenly falling sick or becoming critically ill from pre-existing conditions that have been under control.

Unfortunately some have even died due to sudden health problems, a worsening health  condition  or unexplainable cause. It may be that they could not access professional healthcare on time. But for some it was  during medical treatment or even afterwards when they were supposed  to be on the path of recovery that they died.

Some people would point out that death is beyond human understanding and when it is time, it is time. So, that’s the reason they believe the health problem happened such that even with professional healthcare the person still died. Some would even declare it must be God's will for the person to be sick and/or die and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

ERROR! ERROR!! ERROR!!! That is wrong thinking – please , let’s take responsibility for our health - the cause(s) of health problems which may or may not lead to death are man-made. Human-made, I mean, so  it won’t seem I am saying it’s the male gender causing health problems.

Prayer/the God-factor is however very important in letting humans know what  the problem is and the right solution(s) for it. Sometimes though God  fixes the health issue without humans knowing how.

 But whether the person recovers or dies as a result or dies suddenly from an unknown or unexplainable cause,  the truth still is this: health problems or deaths are directly or indirectly caused by humans.

But this is not about pointing accusing fingers at anyone. It is about sensitising on the need  to identify the causes of ill-health or deaths and do what we can prayerfully to prevent or avoid such. 

As a person of faith in God through Jesus Christ, I have realised that being prayerful  helps a whole lot in sensitivity to the Holy Spirit to detect or know things that may otherwise have been overlooked or unknown. When there is a health issue, identifying the cause is one of the major steps  in solving the problem. Recently, I realised I had plastic toxicity in my system and the food substance needed to counteract it. This has solved a major problem of chronic inflammation and related issues. 

Even when one seeks professional health care, knowing the cause of a health problem can at least ensure the person is not doing things that are perpetuating the health problem while undergoing medical treatment. 

Aside accidents which is another matter, most health problems, if not all, are caused by what gets into our  human body system that ought not to get in according to God, our Creator’s  manual. Anything that was not originally intended to get into our bodies are toxic to the body, The quantity of those toxic substances, how regular they get into and how long they stay in our bodies can determine how much discomfort,  damage(s) or disease(s) they cause. 

So if you want to prevent such health mishaps, 
1. AVOID OR PREVENT TOXINS from getting into your body. 
But currently in this world we live in, most of our food, drinks including water, medications, even the air we breathe, the body care products we use, have toxic substances in them. Those substances might not really be toxic normally but when they enter the human body, since they were not meant to enter in, they become toxic to the body. 

Even though damaging to human health, the use of these toxic substances have become systematic/ systemic. Coupled with the unwillingness due to the seeming but ultimately unwise, even foolish  benefits derived from using these harmful substances,  it seems a long way away in stopping such. 

2.DETOXIFICATION 
So if you are not able to avoid such foods and drinks during the celebrations, start now to reduce or if possible, eliminate the toxic load in your body and that of your dependent(s). If you have been following  these health related write-ups by Farm Cafe, by now you should know the ways toxins get into our human bodies, sometimes through no fault of the individual. 

👊Purging versus Detoxification 
Purging is  not actually detoxification but a part of Detoxification. Purging is mainly clearing your bowels which is also good as it also removes wastes from the body. But detoxification encompasses much more – the cleansing of the blood. If a person’s blood is clean – free of impurities, it will go a long way in helping the body systems function properly. It will among many other  things,  stabilise blood pressure, prevent insulin resistance  such that carbohydrates and sugar from food and drinks  can be readily converted to glucose and taken to the cells of the body where they are needed for energy in the functioning of body’s systems. Refer to past write-ups  by Farm Cafe on Detixification, Join a Green Challenge by a Naturalist or do it for yourself and loved ones - it basically  entails taking organic grown green leaves or other veggies in the  morning for a week to 10 days before food.

 Festive foods
You might want to ask that lots of food and drinks at Christmas season and at other festivities usually contain lots of sugar, carbs and fats. Yes, it would have been good to abstain but  if you want to enjoy these at this season, start DETOXIFYING now. You may also do intermittent  fasting with water omly.

If the blood is clean – free of impurities or the toxins have been reduced to the barest minimum, the human body is very efficient at processing food and drinks, separating the toxins  from the nutrients for metabolic processes. 

👊Pre-existing conditions
But this is provided the kidney(s) and/or liver are not so damaged that they are not working at all. Even if they are fully damaged, they can fully recover but you should know until they recover well enough to process and pass out wastes, you need to be in consultation with  knowledgeable/professional health care provider(s). You may have to abstain from some foods, go for dialysis or use activated charcoal to adsorb toxins in the food and drink. Discuss with your healthcare provider on these.

But remember that since your body organs can recover and function very well, if you stop the things causing damage(s) and live healthy, your organs do not have to be removed and replaced with someone else’s. 

👊Regeneration
Your God-given body organs can heal because the human body was designed by God the Creator to regenerate as long as the person is alive and doing the needful according to the Creator’s manual for the body – eat right and live right. This is a major reason that when some health issues were declared irreversible by healthprofessionals, some people still recovered fully from such conditions. They testify of it as a miracle – something only God can do. Yes, it’s a miracle- that God did originally when He designed the human body to regenerate  -renew itself when given the proper care. 

BREAKING HARD INORGANIC SUBSTANCES 
Realise also that that a body’s liver and/or kidney(s) may not actually be damaged. They are still functional but just that there may be some hard inorganic substances in that body such as plastic elements or compounds, metallic elements etc. Those body organs were not designed to process and expel  such from the body. So if not expelled, they may remain in the bloodstream or get deposited in some tissues or organs causing so much discomfort. If such keep happening, they start causing pains and may lead to cancerous growth(s) and other diseases. 

When in the bloodstream, these hard toxic inorganic substances  adulterate the blood, hindering blood flow causing the body to constantly break down like a substandard vehicle. 

👊Proper care
Realise that the Almighty God, the Creator of the universe could not have created the human body as junk  - substandard.  It is humans that have  inadvertently and even sometimes deliberately subjected the body to improper care. In trying to be smart - ignoring God the Creator, a lot of damages have been done and still being done to human bodies.

One of the ways to take proper care of the body is with God-given foods. Seeds from  organic grown crops can break down hard  inorganic substances such that even a partially functioning liver and kidney(s) can help eliminate them from the body. Do consult with  knowledgeable health care providers on these. Sometimes later, I may share insights on using seeds effectively as food to counteract health problems. 

👊Water
Drinking clean water also help to cleanse the system. It would have been better to get drinking water directly from natural source but if you buy purified water, just ensure it is really pure/harmless by regularly checking the effect on your body. 

THINGS TO DO OR HAVE HANDY
If there is any issue of food or drink poisoning or serious discomfort and there is delay in getting professional healthcare, have  on hand
a. Activated charcoal 
b. Organic-grown plants nearby that you can pluck the edible leaves, chew raw or drink the juice to soak up the toxins while waiting for medical attention
c. Toxins out  -    You may consult with a healthcare practitioner ahead on this:  If someone has eaten or drunk something causing serious discomfort, induce vomiting. Why? To get the toxins out of the body especially before they are absorbed along with nutrients by the blood.  High toxins load in the blood may be fatal.
d. Beware of  using highly toxic insecticides or constantly breathing in polluted air. Avoiid such places if you can. Spend time  near vegetation
 
SUMMARY
The long and short of  this matter is this: eliminate completely or reduce the toxic load in your body so that your body won’t cave in to toxic overload when enjoying yourself this yuletide but of course be measured  - don’t overdo things

MANY WAYS PLASTIC ENTER OUR BODY SYSTEMS



..,disrupts hormones, causing  health  problems

...cleansing body of plastic contamination

PLASTIC ENTRY
Almost on daily basis, micro-plastics, nano-plastics, Bisphenol A (BPA), phthalates are entering into the bodies of people especially those living in hot climates
How? Some of the ways include but not limited to:

1. Drinks – water, soft drinks, ice creams sold in satchets and bottles. People usually buy ice cold ones - very chilled. But before they are refrigerated, in many shops and storage places, the heat from the direct rays of the sun or in the place they are kept or even during transportation touch the plastics. This causes some chemical substance(s) the plastic is made with to seep into to the drink inside. But before people drink them, they are usually refrigerated. So, the drink may be very cold but it may be very chilled slow poison. Since lots of people take such drinks in plastic containers  on regular basis, you can imagine the level of plastics that can get into a person’s bloodstream. That is apart from the possibility of substances that are health hazardous that some commercially-produced drinks are made with.  Until about two decades ago in Nigeria, soft drinks were sold in  glass bottles. But the bottles have to be returned after taking liquid content or empty glass bottles were exchanged for the bottled drinks. This was no doubt inconveniencing and humans are always  seeking convenience, which is okay.  It is just that people tend not to give serious consideration to the health implications of what is convenient.

2. Bathing water from plastic drums, tanks, pipes under the sun – the human body has pores through which  elements or compounds in water  constantly poured on the skin can enter the bloodstream. 

3. Plastic sponges  used for bathing.

4. Blender – After some period of constantly using a blender, the heat being generated may gradually cause leaching of plastic into the food or drink.

5. Packaged or take-away foods are usually put in plastics

6. By now, many people should know they ought not put food to be micro-waved in plastic but some still do if the food is already in a plastic container. Even some care-givers put plastic baby feeding bottles in warm or hot water to  make the baby food warm.

7. When people go to  grind certain food items at a public grinding mill, they usually collect the grinded item with the heat generated in a plastic container, sometimes polythene bags called nylon. To reduce leached plastic, don’t cover or seal or use a non-plastic, more durable container

8. Solid or liquid food kept in plastic container in enclosed places even refrigerators  with constant prolonged power outages. For instance, corn or guinea-corn pap kept in a covered plastic would generate heat if no refrigeration. Even if kept in the refrigerator and there are power outages for days,  the refrigerator loses the coolness. This would generate  heat which can leach some of the plastic elements into the pap. When electricity is restored and it becomes cool again, the pap would likely have been contaminated with plastic elements or compounds. It should be better to use a porcelain(not in a freezer) to put the pap in the refrigerator. It may also be better to remove the cover when no coolness in the refrigerator or keep the pap out of a refrigerator, leave uncovered and change the water on the surface regularly.

THE HEALTH IMPLICATIONS OF PLASTICS
Being conscious can  reduce the quantity of plastics unknowingly leached into our body systems. Practices on this concerning infants should of course be stopped.  We may not be totally able to stop plastics from getting into our systems as adults.
Leached plastic in the body system disrupts the hormones. For instance, they may cause fertility related issues- not just difficulty in conceiving and birthing children but myriad of health problems for both male and female that may seem  unexplainable.

Currently, there are not enough researches to prove that plastic loads in the body cause cancers, renal or hepatic problems. But  plastics are no doubt impurities in the body. When they get into the body, they are very harmful to health, particularly to the blood.

A healthy liver expectedly separates  the plastic to the kidneys for expulsion. But this is stressful to the liver and even more so to the kidney(s) – these plastic substances were never meant to enter the body at all and their exit from the body may be slow or take time.

SOLUTION
A plastic detox would be necessary as presence of the plastic elements or compounds in the blood can cause problems ranging from diabetes to High Blood Pressure to  body aches. If the plastic loads is much, it obstructs blood flow and can also cause a stroke or even cardiac issues.

You can use food – edibles to do plastic detox regularly.

1. Most of the edible seeds e.g.   chia seeds help in plastic detox. Seeds from truly organic plants are very effective.

2.Edible chelators like tamarind also help in plastic detox.

To treat serious cases of plastic contamination,  do consult with a professional health care provider.  If there is delay in getting the healthcare, taking
- truly clean water,
- chewing edible organic-grown edible leaves, - - taking pure natural honey - and/or truly natural oil like coconut oil can bring some relief or alleviate the pain.

PRESERVE YOUR BODY PARTS


Let us always remember this simple health formula

Toxins in – Toxins out = Relief or Good Health

It is NOT

Toxins in – Your Body Part out. In fact  Body Part out is wrong.

God, the Creator, Designer of  the Human Body is NOT stupid. If He intended for body parts to be manually replaced from external sources, He would have made provisions for human body parts to be easily acquired  on earth, not taken from another person.

If at all any damaged part of a human body should be replaced, it should heal, grow back or be regenerated within or from within that body.

Most times, when the thing(s) causing the damage(s) to any part of the body  is stopped, the healing process(which is inbuilt) starts.

It is when a person’s  body part is damaged or severed due to an accident, that it would be right to fix it back on the owner’s body. The life in that body if kept in good health will bring back to life that body part that was severed and fixed back.

On internal body parts like the kidney(s), liver, if damaged, please allow those organs to heal through the life-giving ability of the body – just ensure that body is maintained to be in good health.

Human body parts should not be merchandise.

If however pressured to remove an ailing body part that you were told is damaged, insist on taking your removed body part home with you. Since they said it is completely damaged, of what use is it to them?

A damaged body part left in the owner’s body can be regenerated back to life and function again as long as the owner chooses to live in good health NATURALLY.

But pray consistently because there are things causing ill-health to the body that may have been overlooked or unknown preventing recovery.  The Spirit of God can help reveal these things.

SEEDS CAN SAFEGUARD HUMAN HEALTH

...this is God-given solution

Major solution to the health problems of humanity is in seeds -plant seeds. 

Gen.1.29 - And God said, See, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the land and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food.

The less unadulterated – naturally produced a plant  and seeds are, the more effective in maintaining good health or restoring health (by removing  toxic substances that cause ill-health from the body).

Many plant seeds are no longer as effective for achieving good health as they should have been because they have been messed up, adulterated over time.

There is even subtle attempts to keep seeds  out of the reach of people generally - make seeds scarce and controlled by few. 

God made good health simple but  humans have made it so complex in the bid to rip off other humans.

Ensure your health and well-being is not ripped off. The further humanity moves away from the natural order of food production, the closer and closer to health disasters.

Someday the full truth about using  plants and seeds for good health would unfold.
Meanwhile, when you have seeds from plants that have been naturally grown, plant some and keep some  - they are health treasures – when humans are tired of being sick and tired, they will opt for  simple  God-given solutions.

Your desire should be to preserve lives not turn  the damaging of human  bodies into merchandise to cash out on.

SOME OVERLOOKED CAUSES OF DIABETES


Some concerned persons usually express worry  over the possibility of Diabetes when  an adult constantly eats sweet foods even organic-grown fresh foods.

But know what? Truly organic sweet or sugary foods or truly natural sugar doesn’t cause Type 2 or Type 1 Diabetes. Do not also conclude that a person is suffering or experiencing Diabetics symptoms because it is hereditary. Even if inherited, a carrier of such in the genes need not ever experience such throughout life.

Why then has there been so much occurrence of Diabetes in recent times even among youths, teenagers, little children, infants?
ANSWER: People have been inadvertently  cooperating with the world to damage their human bodies through things accepted without thinking deep, even things seemingly enjoyable. 

How? In so many ways but let’s explore few in relation to our body health and in particular to Diabetes

1. Regular exposure to  Bisphenol A (BPA)  in plastic food or drink containers, low grade inks from POS machines or cash  register receipts, inks on some containers for edibles  especially satchets,  disposable bags.

We should already know that when plastic containers including what we call ‘nylon’ get heated, there is leaching of some synthetic substances they contain into the food, especially drinks. Even the use of plastic overhead tanks  in some hot-climate countries as reservoir to store water in many homes, hotels, offices, hospitals, schools poses BPA risks. Also, the water from such overhead tanks are usually passed through plastic pipes to the points of use. 

Anyway some of those plastics may be BPA-free hopefully. Even if BPA-free, what about the other synthetics they contain, hope they won’t be leashed into the water as the plastic constantly gets heated?  

What continuous exposure to BPA, even in very small doses does is that it  causes metabolic disorders – messes up the normal functioning of the body. This does not only cause Diabetes. It may also cause High Blood Pressure for instance.

Even though BPA can be expelled from the body as long as the liver and kidney(s) are still functioning well, it still means these organs and other parts of the body would be regularly stressed. The blood would constantly be adulterated – just think of a car constantly being filled with adulterated fuel. Unlike the car, the human body will keep trying so hard to function well. But most people know how it feels when one’s body is just not feeling okay and you don’t understand the reason(s). You may even have made so many good lifestyle choices but overlooked this. 

The  continual entry of BPA and other toxic substances can lead to insulin resistance therefore  sugar from any food even healthy foods stays in the blood for too long before going to the cells. The BPA and other toxic substances may also damage the Pancreas that produce the insulin necessitating intake of external insulin. 

SOLUTION 
Even if the Pancreas have been damaged, when the cause(s) of a problem in the body is stopped and with truly healthy food and other good lifestyle choices, the body part or tissue has good chances of recovering.

2. Apart from inheriting Diabetes, some studies have also shown that when an unborn child is constantly exposed to BPA during critical developmental stages in pregnancy, it might affect the offspring’s Pancreas later in life. While it is essential for expectant parents to pray for a healthy baby to be birthed, let them also note the possible risks and avoid them. This trend of little children also having to live with and manage Diabetes can be stopped. God is a prayer answering God, He also gives wisdom on what to avoid if people seek the right knowledge.  

SOLUTION
To package foods and drinks  that may be subject to heat, do consider porcelain, glass or stainless steel.Either go for fresh foods or buy packaged foods and drinks in places they are not constantly exposed to heat. 

3.Toxic substances used in food and drinks production can cause insulin resistance and/or damage the Pancreas such that the body does not produce enough insulin for normal functioning 

These toxic substances may be arsenic used in rice production or pesticides used in beans production. They can also be those used in food preservation such as sodium nitrate. As long as anything used in food production or preservation is not recognised by the body as food, it is an invader and would likely disrupts normal functioning if the body before being expelled.  

SOLUTION
Go for organic-produced and preserved foods. You may also check previous write-ups by Farm Cafe on removing toxins from the body. Prevention is always better though. 

4. Toxic air pollutants if constantly inhaled. The toxins in the air will cause inflammation in the lungs. The inflammatory effect can spread through the lungs to the bloodstream  and different organs in the body. This may adversely affect the Pancreas over time affecting the normal production of insulin. Even if the Pancreas is not damaged and insulin production continues, as a result of the constant inflammation, some tissues and cells may become less responsive to insulin causing insulin resistance.
SOLUTION
Avoid this toxic air inhalation as much as possible  - plants generally  but certain ones in particular can reduce or mitigate effects of air pollutants (details to be explored another time)
 

5.Some Medications’ Side Effects – you should read the details on the label or paper slip in any medication you are taking even if recommended. Also discuss with your healthcare professional – anything - food, drinks or medications that nourishes, refreshes or cures but deposits certain substances not recognised by the body as food or not beneficial can possibly cause some dysfunction in that body. More so, if such if such is taken regularly.

6. Hard Substances – heavy alcohol, tobacco and hard drugs constantly inflame the body and can disrupt normal functioning of the body tissues and cells over time which may  lead to Diabetes and/or other health problems. So think of the long-term effects of Chronic Diseases before indulging
