Direct costs had doubled since 2000 and costs are expected to continue to increase. • Type 1 and type 2 diabetes currently affect over 24 million Americans, or 8% of the population. • Additionally, an estimated 5.2 million people remain undiagnosed, and more than 60 million Americans have pre-diabetes, a precursor condition characterized by plasma glucose levels that are above normal but below the values diagnostic of diabetes www.themegallery.com Diabetes Wellness Clinics of America

The Ambulatory Reversal Program Hope Medical Institute ARP
Overview • The Ambulatory Reversal Program[ARP] is the most cost effective non-residential [out-patient], functional lifestyle and health maintenance program of its kind. • Based on the Genesis Agenda with the ARP protocols • It is a broad base, scientifically sounded, evidence based, affordable comprehensive and easy to follow lifestyle program • Facilitate the transition from a live-in [Residential] to the “real life” • Culturally sensitive • Enhances the replication, preservation, and regeneration [neogenesis] of the beta cell Diabetes Wellness Clinics of America
Overview • Naturally control the appetite, facilitating a significant amount of weight loss • Reduce or eliminate the insulin resistance • Is fast, fun, motivating with a high degree of compliance • Our programs emphasize a non-new age progressive functional lifestyle, exercise and stress reduction program. • Although it is not a requirement to be a vegetarian. • Our goal is to guide our patient in that direction by a gradual, cultural based well balanced process.

Phases of ARP Stabilize Preserve Damage Control [Restore] Reversibility Diabetes Wellness Clinics of America
1.Stabilize: the first immediate goal is to stabilize the patient [safety is always our main concern] in order to prevent those conditions that can and will put the patient life in jeopardy. Results can be seen within days, not weeks, months or years • 2.Preserve. Our intensive program is designed to preservebeta cells that remain in your pancreas by slowing and/or eliminating the destruction of it
3.Restore: Beta cell regeneration is not Science Fiction. Since 1998 evidence has been accumulated pointing in that direction. • The patient will be empowered with all the tools necessary to actively participate in the healing process that will prevent and/or reverse diabetes • 4.Rebuild: Quality of life is essential to us. • Physically:A well balance exercise program will be tailor to every patient needs. • Mentally: Patient will be able to enjoy the true understanding of the positive thinking [based on evidence not on theory]
The Deadly Quartet • Abdominal Obesity • Men: > 102 cm [>40 in] • Female: >88 cm [35 in] • Dyslipidemia • Triglycerides > 150 • HDL <40 in men, < 50 in female • Fasting glucose >110 • High blood pressure >130/85
Our Goal A normal glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), the same as a person without diabetes
Mission To improvethe quality of lives and to reduce or eliminate diabetes complications through a new community outreach, evidence and scientifically based program. ARP is based on an innovative and new treatment paradigm, education and research, leading to the prevention and/or reversal of Diabetes Mellitus
Our Philosophy“One of the mantras of diabetes care is that the patient should be in charge”Patient-Centered Care
