Insulin Response Pattern 1 is:
Euinsulinemia/Non-Diabetic
Insulin Response Pattern 1 is:
Euinsulinemia/Non-Diabetic
2015 Ivor Cummins BE(Chem) CEng MIEI
Insulin Response Patterns 2 to 4 are:
Hyperinsulinemia/Diabetes In Situ
These people are Diabetic. Period.

75% of the
people with
‘normal’ glucose results, failed
Kraft’s test. They were NOT ok.

Critically, Kraft’s research and >3,000 autopsies
(personally conducted) led him to infer that:
2015 Ivor Cummins BE(Chem) CEng MIEI
• The damage of diabetes is
vascular: you must assume
diabetes is the root cause,
unless Pattern 1 demonstrated!

• The damage of diabetes is
vascular: you must assume

• The damage precedes the point
where the glucose becomes
elevated (ref: Kimmelsteil’s work)

observed in all vessels, incl. micro
vessels of the heart’s IV Septum

In summary, Kraft concluded that:
“Those with cardiovascular disease not identified
with diabetes…are simply undiagnosed.”

Kraft in Summary:1.Diabetic phenomena are grossly under-
diagnosed in the population
2.The earliest diagnosis is with the ‘5 hour glucose
with insulin assay’ (although 2hr insulin can serve
as a proxy)
3.The diabetic state can be effectively addressed
with diet, rescuing people from Pattern 2-4
(Diabetes in Situ)
4.Cardiovascular Disease is primarily a diabetic
pathology – all so afflicted should be assumed
diabetic, unless they achieve Pattern 1…
5.The vascular disease of Penile Erectile
Dysfunction (PED), is also a diabetic pathology –
all so afflicted should be assumed diabetic, unless
they achieve Pattern 1…
