Diabetes in Mbarara is from Hotloaf not Coca Cola


Mbarara, and other growing urban centres are experiencing increased reports of Diabetes and this will only worsen with time.  But who is the culprit? The Coca Cola plant or something else?  Dr Bitekyerezo contradicts his own title and name by not having good thoughts about the problem.  It is good his radio program was snuffed out.
The diabetes that we see on the rise in Uganda is Type II, adult type and not Type I.  Type II results from roadblocks being placed for insulin in its access to body cells, making it hard for the body to either utilise blood sugar to generate energy or to convert excess blood sugar into the storable form.  With Type II diabetes, the Mbarara type, you have the paradox of plenty of blood sugar and plenty of blood insulin, yet you are feeling Mulindwaish (i.e., foggy-headed) and fatigued.  In Type I, you simply have no insulin factory…and it evident right from infancy.
I hear the key road block to insulin’s access to body cells is a protein found in grains particularly wheat and some cousins of beans.  The protein is called gluten.  Taking sugary food is only a problem for those already with Diabetes.  Uganda has a largely Blood Group O population, and sadly, we have taken on to taking wheat products suited for Blood group A (Agrarian) populations of Western Europe and the Mediterranean basin.
A blood group A individual like Mr  Abbey Semuwemba and Mr Joseph  Ochieno would be fine with wheat products.  Blood group Os like Mr Peter Senoga (O+) and the Obargots of this world are better off with a meaty diet of the original Cro-Magnon of 30,000 years ago.  You the Group Os eat the grains and starches only to suffer the pain of heart burn (acid reflux) in the short run, peptic ulcers in the medium term and Diabetes Type II in the long run.  Dr Bitekyerezo should revise his notes on the political economy of the ABO blood types, and the natural history of Homo sapiens………

Diabetes Type II arises when body cells develop resistance to insulin.  When that happens, the body will fail to utilise blood sugar (glucose) to generate energy, in addition to failing to convert surplus glucose to its storable form (glycogen).  There is a link between blood type, diet and diabetes type II.

Why do I say that Hoat Loaf bakery is more to blame than Coca cola?

Now, one of the key factors in increasing cellular resistance to insulin is gluten, a protein that is found in whole wheat…that protein that makes bread dough sticky.  That is the culprit, particularly in individuals whose Blood group is O.  Coca cola or other sugary drinks do not contain gluten.  Gluten is found in Bread, chapati, rolex (rolled eggs) mandazi and other wheat products whose consumption is on the increase in Uganda.

Coca cola and other sugary drinks can be of significance only in individuals already suffering from diabetes, not at the level of causation.  They complicate (but not cause) Diabetes Type II by overloading the system with sugar but they do not play any role in increasing cellular resistance to insulin.  Peasants call sugar “sukali” and they call diabetes “sukali: that is a major source of confusion for may of us that are lay.

Why do I make specific reference to Blood Group O?

That is the predominant Blood group in Uganda and in much of Africa South of the Sahara.  When you look at man’s natural history, Bld Gp O is found to be the Oldest, or Original blood group, hence, as far as I am concerned, the ‘O’: original, oldest….nothing to do with Luo names!  Blood group O can be traced back to about 30,000 in the savanas of Africa and  were the original hunters, and therefore meat eaters.  When populations increased and competition for hunting grounds increased, massive migrations pushed human populations Eastwards towards Asia, in areas where there wasn’t abundant game.  This was about 20,000 years ago, when those that were squeezed out of African Savanas opted for a settled agricultural life dominated by grain growing.  This is when Blood type A of the Agrarians emerged, as an antigenic type suited for settled life, dependent on Agriculture and feeding on vegetables and grains.  Blood Group As are to be found in Eurasia and much of Western Europe.  About 10,000 years ago, Blood type B emerged particularly in central Asia…eg the Mongolian Steppes.  Unlike Os who hunted in the African Savanas, and As who domesticated crops, the Bs domesticated animals.  About 3,000 years ago, another blood type, AB emerged….mainly found in parts of Northern Europe.  NB:  As you know, Blood group O can donate to A, B and AB: because it is the Original.  AB can receive from everyone because it is the most recent and culmination of the whole spiral of blood type evolution.

Back to the Hot Loaf vs Cocacolonisation debate.

There is something special with the physiology of Blood Gp Os, which as we have said are predominat in Africa.  Their stomachs produce a lot of acid originally meant for digesting the predominant food of the hunter: meat.  When a typical Blood group O individual eats less meat than he is designed to, the acid generated in the stomach becomes redundant.  What follows? It starts digesting the lining of the stomach, creating ulcers.  Let any friend of yours tell you that he has stomach ulcers.  You have guessed it: he will in all probability be a Blood group O.  Alternatively, carry out a silent survey of anyone that complains of stomach ulcers and try to establish what their blood groups might be.
Peptic ulcers is a problem for those with stomachs designed for digesting meat, but have now been pushed into eating starchy food that leaves the stomach acid idle, and just digesting the lining of the stomach.  If you are the acid-producer (Blood group O) and you consume  a starchy meal in the afternoon and you lie down for a siesta, you will be woken up by some of the acid flowing backwards into your oesophagus…the so-called heart burn…also a Blood Group O problem.  Peptic ulcers are not a Group A problem…studies show that they have a limited concentration of acid producing cells in their stomachs.
Wheat, the major food for the grain consuming ’A'grarians almost ends up being like a poison for the meat eating ‘O’riginal man….most importantly, the gluten in the wheat that binds with fat, liver and muscle cells in competition with insulin, causing insulin to float around in the blood stream unutilised, in a pool of unutilisable and unconvertible blood glucose.  Diabetes Type II is not a major problem for Blood Gp As.  Increased uptake of wheat products will reamin a driver of the Diabetes Type II problem in the predominantly blood group O Ugandan population….forget about soft drinks!

  1. Daudi Wamutibi,

    The most accurate, balanced, non-hysterical account of the ongoing government and media manufactured swine flu scam.

    Source: A doctor of public medicine who has become a nun and is living in a monastery in Spain. Her talk is in Spanish with English subtitles.

    She’s a bit long winded, but she is very thorough, very specific and very admirable in her no-nonsense approach to what is revealing itself to be an outrageous fraud being perpetrated by the World Health Organization, the pharmaceutical industry, the news media, and so-called “governments” around the world.

    Bottom line:

    1. The 2009 swine flu is proving to be significantly LESS lethal than even a normal mild flu season.

    2. It is not a new flu. This type of flu has been seen before – and it was not the end of the world.

    3. It is completely unprecedented to require that people take THREE separate shots to deal with a flu.

    4. The World Health Organization has completely changed the definition of the word “pandemic,” setting the bar so low that three people in one town with a runny nose qualifies (I’m exaggerating, but not by a lot.)

    5. Nations have handed over their sovereignty on public health matters to WHO without public discussion.

    6. Substances added to these shots (like squalene) are being added to stretch and boost what is being sold as a “limited” supply of the virus. The science behind this is dubious, but that last time squalene was used in vaccinations in large numbers was Gulf War I. It caused thousands of cases of neurological injuries.

    7. Last but not least, there’s no history of swine flu ever mutating. If it does, this time, it will be a first. If WHO was able to predict the mutation months in advance, then it will be a first in the history of science. Finally, it it does mutate that means that all the “vaccine” manufactured to date is useless, but watch…

    Odds are a mutation will be presented as grounds for everyone being required to get the vaccination series.

    This story proves two things:

    1. The news media, by dong NOTHING to expose this scam, has completely lost any last shred of credibility it might have had remaining.

    2. If you need to find out what’s really doing on, research it on the Internet. Don’t expect to find out about it on TV or in the newspaper. If it’s important, do your own homework.
