Dear Mr. & Mrs. Quick,
My father is traveling, conducting a diabetes workshop, so I will respond
for him. As my father states in his book, Chapter 1, page 7:
" I do not consider my diabetes wellness program (6-stage model) to be an
official "cure" for Type
2 diabetes, despite all of the evidence. As an engineer, I do not believe in
anecdotal data - I believe in the data and testing from independent,
qualified test labs and similar resources. A series of double-blind,
placebo-controlled clinical studies need to be performed to properly
validate (or discredit) my diabetes wellness program. Hopefully, there is a
company that would be interested in pursuing this endeavor for the
betterment of our country and the world. Then, we can communicate my
wellness program and the specific protocol as an official cure for Type 2
diabetes."
p.s. The word "cure" was added to the website pages for "search engine"
reasons, but I will have it removed.
Sincerely,
DeWayne:
I recently received an e-mail concerning your website, and its
liberal use of the word "cure"
At DiabetesMonitor.com, you never used that word:
DeWayne McCulley
DeWayne McCulley is an engineer who works for a Fortune 500 systems
company in Upstate NY. In 2002 his life took a drastic turn when he
was stricken with a diabetic coma and a blood glucose level of 1337.
DeWayne used his engineering and biochemistry background to wean
himself off the insulin and other drugs to lower his average glucose
level and his hemoglobin A1C back to the normal ranges. He credits
his recovery to God, his doctors and nurses, his mother, his
daughter, a set of unexplained accidents (blessings) and his undying
thirst for knowledge - all guiding him through his recovery. DeWayne
has written a book that explains his wellness strategy with medical
references from more than 250 clinical studies. His hope is that his
wellness strategy (at
(Death to Diabetes - The 6 Stages of Type 2 Diabetes Control &
Reversal) will help people the way he was helped — by people he
would never have met if it weren’t for his experience with diabetes.
DeWayne, I cannot in good conscience support any claim that there’s a
"cure" for diabetes, and feel that I must remove both the biosketch
and the essay unless you retract the claim on your website that you
have a way to
Reverse the curse . . . reverse, cure, beat your Type 2 diabetes!
Any feedback would be appreciated; otherwise I will delete them this
weekend.
Thanks.
