The Truth About Diabetes and Genetics: What You Need to Know

Is Type 2 Diabetes Really Genetic?

Have you been told that your type 2 diabetes is “in your genes”? That it’s something you inherited from your parents, leaving you feeling powerless to change it?

Let me set the record straight: Type 2 diabetes is not caused by a specific gene. Despite what you’ve heard, the notion that diabetes runs in families because of genetics doesn’t tell the whole story.

What Does the Science Say?

When the U.S. government conducted the Human Genome Project, a groundbreaking study that mapped our DNA, they found no specific gene linked to type 2 diabetes.

So, what’s really going on? Families often share lifestyles, habits, and environments, which can significantly impact their health. Poor eating habits, lack of exercise, and stress are often passed down—not diabetes genes.

Dr. Spages’ Proven Approach to Reversing Diabetes

Through my years of helping patients reverse their type 2 diabetes, I’ve seen firsthand that genetics is not the determining factor. Even patients with multiple family members diagnosed with diabetes have successfully reversed their condition through a customized approach.

The Key to Reversal: Restoring Balance

Type 2 diabetes is often the result of imbalances in the body’s systems, not a genetic “defect.”

  • Liver Function: The liver plays a critical role in managing blood sugar levels.
  • Adrenal and Pancreatic Health: These organs must work in harmony for optimal glucose regulation.
  • Inflammation and Stress: Chronic inflammation and high-stress levels disrupt insulin sensitivity.

By identifying and addressing these underlying issues, we can create a plan tailored to your unique needs.

Why a Customized Plan Is Essential

There’s no one-size-fits-all solution for reversing diabetes. Cookie-cutter advice like “just lose weight” or “take this medication” ignores the root causes of the disease. That’s why I work with patients to create personalized protocols that address their specific challenges and imbalances.

No matter your family history, there is hope.

Take the First Step Toward Reversing Your Diabetes

You don’t have to accept type 2 diabetes as your fate. With the right approach, you can take control of your health and reverse the condition—even if it “runs in your family.”

Conclusion

Type 2 diabetes isn’t genetic—it’s a condition that can be reversed by addressing the root causes and restoring balance to the body. If you’ve been struggling with your diagnosis or feel stuck in a cycle of medications that aren’t working, there is hope.

Let’s uncover what’s really driving your diabetes and develop a plan to reverse it naturally. Remember, your body is born to heal—and I’m here to help.

Take the first step today and reclaim your health.
