Great news from the eye doctor!

[WhiteBear]

I wasn't sure which Diet and Health thread to post this in, because it involves so many aspects of what I've learned here at the Cass forum, so I put it here.

My wife and I had our eye exams today...the first ones in 4 years. She's type I diabetic (since she was 13) and at the last eye exam was showing signs of retinopathy and capillary hemorrhaging. She had been controlling her blood sugar through large insulin injections rather than moderate injections and good diet, and it was taking its toll on her circulatory and nervous systems.

Last year we both decided to go Paleo, and after one year of a strict Paleo diet, between the two of us, we've lost over 250 pounds. But what made her even happier was that when the eye doctor finished his exam, he told her there was NO SIGN of retinopathy or capillary abnormalities. One year of Paleo, proper supplementation with magnesium and omega-3, and EE breathing did this.

I just wanted to offer this to the group as anecdotal evidence for anyone sharing these ideas with someone.
