My brother has diabetes, and I want to know if there is a way to get rid of it completely. I have seen some people advertise that you can get rid of it, but I dont want to shell out the money if it doesnt work. Does anybody know of a method or methods?

I will assume you are talking about a non-insulin dependent person. Doing all of those very healthy things can reduce the symptoms to the point where you appear to be non-diabetic. HOWEVER - the disease is not cured or gone - it is just what doctors would call asymptomatic - meaning you have no symptoms of the disease. The underlying issues of insulin resistance or insufficient insulin production will remain, and may become more pronounced over time. Even with rigorous attention to the healthy aspects of living, things that you cannot control will change within a person's body. Those changes can lead to the symptoms of diabetes coming back. Be assured that if that happens it does not mean that your efforts have failed. Every effort that you make to keep blood glucose levels under control pays big dividends in overall health, and are excellent training for approaching a slightly different way of treating diabetes - just using a new set of tools, in addition to keeping the current ones.

herbmom that is not true. THere are two types of diabetes. Type 1 is where your pancreas stops producing insulin. Diet and lifestyle usually have nothing to do with it. Sometimes chronic alcoholics can get it but it is almost always an auto immune response. Type 2 is where your tissue becomes insulin resistant. In other words, you can't get the needed nutrients into the cells. This is often closely related to obesity and can SOMETIMES be completely reversed by losing weight and diet modification but this kind can also strike healthy eating healthy weight people. There's no "cure" for it. Type one can be "cured" by a pancreas transplant but of course it's usually only done if someone has kidney problems as well. The most important thing is to adjust lifestyle. A lot of insulin dependant diabetics will just give themselves an extra dose of insulin so they can eat something sugary but you have a much better future if you keep your insulin use to a minimum and watch what you eat. Do a lot of research into this thing you have seen advertised. If it really worked there would be a lot less diabetics in the world.

Well, there is not much i can tell you, because you had not written what type of diabetes your brother is having... there are many types of diabetes in the world.. some pancreas just stop functioning, some spoiled, some just can't create enough insulin to cope with what you eat... for those that had diagnose as stop functioning or spoiled, it shall be difficult to cure it.. But there are a type where the pancreas is unable to create enough insulin, that can be helped by taking a well maintain diet and slowly change the way it function slowly.. and there are many other types of diabetes melitus and stuff... Though there are not many ways to positively cure it 100%, but you can read stuff up to help your brother.. look in Biology Subject.. I've forgotten alot about Diabetic stuff.. Sorry, i'll read up again.. hope that little piece of info can help you..

I'm afraid not. Diabetes researchers are looking for a cure, but haven't found one yet. You can only control it by removing all processed and refined foods, and fast foods from your diet and exercise, exercise, exercise. Drink as much water as possible and take the meds that the doctor has prescribed. You can reverse the effects of it by the above method, but not cure it. When your brother sees his doctor there should be plenty of written material the doctor can give him and also periodicals that he can subscribe to that will give him ideas on how to live with it and deal with it in a positive way. In fact there are always diabetes periodicals in the waiting room, this is if he is seeing a specialist. It's good that you care for him so much as to want to help him with this disease. And take in account that this is a disease. Lifestyle is part of it, but it is a disease process.

Hang in there and help him be strong.

don't believe any of that. that would be like someone curing cancer w/ the touch of their hands. But if we are talking about type 2 then with a good diet, right exercise then you can sometimes w/ out medication have regular blood sugar levels. If we are talking type 1 then a pancreas transplant ( I am serious yet sarcastic) If he is type 1 then he needs insulin all the time (that is untill a cure comes around) he does not produce any or hardly any. Hope this helps

OK there are 2 diff types of this disease

type 1 (aka juvenile diabetes) you get when you are younger and had nothin to do with how you "live your life" usually people with this are isulin dependent)

type 2 you get later in life/or because you have bad eating habits, dont exercise like you should and overweight... not usually insulin dependent

so, type 2 can be prevented whereas type 1 cannot be

To answer this question, let's classify diabetes.
There are 2 types of diabetes---Type I, also known as juvenile diabetes where the body, the pancreatic beta cells, doesn't make insulin. This type usually begins in childhood to up to age 30.
Type II diabetes typically begins in adulthood and is usually associated with obesity, There is an increasing number of obese children developing type II diabetes, This is likely due to increase intake of calories---fast food, sodas, SUGAR. In type II diabetes, the pancreas makes insulin but the body is resistant to it or it's just not enough,

So, Type I diabetes is not curable and the person must inject insulin daily to cover every meal. Type II can be managed with diet, weight loss, but also may require oral medications and/ or insulin. An early form of type II diabetes is glucose intolerance---this is growing in importance in the medical community.It's often seen in obesity and in pregnancy (gestational diabetes which usually resolves after birth of the baby).
Type II diabetes is inherited from your parents. It is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, etc AND must be treated and controlled.

If your brother is obese, weight loss may greatly improve his diabetic control to where he may not need medication, but he may always be prone to dibetes. The American Diabetic Association (ADA) has strict guidelines. Anything one can do to maintain good control is of the utmost importance.

Please consult your family doctor if you have any concerns about treatment and monitoring of diabetes.

Diabetes can be reversed easily by embracing healthy changes in lifestyle. The eating plan ought to comprise of fiber rich and also lots of vegetables and fruits. Consume four to 6 meals/snacks spaced evenly in the course of the day. Commence working out on a regular basis. Dietary supplements could be helpful. Fish oil, a daily multivitamin with minerals, pterocarpus marsupium, garlic, asian ginseng, as well as fenugreek should help.
