Diabetes

i was told my son may have diabetes insipidus, because he drinks all day long and pees all day long and pees a ton through the nite...

does anyone have this? if so do you take medication??

do you know anyone with it??

what happens if you dont get it treated? can you go on through life wihtout treating it??

personally i dont want to get it treated because i dont believe in using medication.
what are your thoughts??

like i said we are still ushur wether or not he has it because we left the hospital when they told us we couldnt feed our son b/c they wanted to do the water deprivation test, and he hadnt ate since breakfast and it was about 6pm so i left.

I recently found out that my mother has type 2 diabetes. Its something that runs in our family plus she's over weight and is obviously in the process of losing. Still, I like to be told straight up the dangers or what may happen with things. So be honest.

My husband has had great teeth all his life, now that he has diabetes 2 the dentist tells him he has lost bone mass in his mouth because of the diabetes. Without having surgery what can he take to strenthen and build bone mass. Surgery is a last resort they want to take out his teeth & replace them.

I want it. Just kidding. Is diabetes exploding because sugar is addicting and so corporations love to use it?

MORE ADDICTION MEANS MORE SALES MEANS MORE PROFIT!!!

Are there any on the market that allow one to measure and record glucose levels, but also allow me to enter in foods (or carbs) I have eaten, along with exercise I have completed? Can you recommend a brand name....Many thanks

Diabetes seems to have been effectively treated in some cases with the amazing lowering of blood sugar readings after consuming white vinegar.

The Yoga masters are telling that Asanas are inducing the inner parts of the body say, activate "pancrias" well and make it to produce the "insulin" more. Whether it is correct?
