Diabetes cure?

Question

I think I have diabetes. Last year I started a job where I am on my feet most of the day and parts of my feet went numb. at first I thought it was my shoes but it doesn't go away even on the weekends. I think it is diabetes.
Is there any thing I can do to stop this, like a chnge of diet? I'm going to the doctor soon but I'd like to know what you people think.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

diabetes can not be cured only to be under control. Make sure if you are given meds. to take them accordingly and follow the instructions your doctor gave you. its going to be 3 years when I was diagnosed with diabetes type 2. I recently was hospitalized for uncontrolled diabetes so now I must take insulin. and follow all indications from my doctor. You will feel great when you follow all your instructions. Good luck

I realize that conventional health care is necessary and appropriate. That having been said, there are many things WE can do to overcome type II diabetes, and improve life as a Type I diabetic. I've been researching alternative medicine, and the amount of help that's available to diabetics is amazing.

Natural remedies are quite effective, and include:

Cinnamon
Bitter Melon
Gymnema Sylvestre
Nopal cactus
American Ginseng
Fenugreek
Chromium picolinate

Cinnamon regulates glucose, and has a polyphenol compound called MHCP that mimics insulin and activates cell receptor sites. A quarter teaspoon twice daily makes a difference. Fenugreek increases blood flow and inhibits the growth of infectious organisms. Everything on the list has a use in fighting diabetes. Learn how to use these herbs and don't fall victim to diabetes needlessly.You can find out about about them on line, or in a book I read cover to cover--

"One Son's Quest for the Cause and Cure of Diabetes", ISBN 7890766313

The author, a doctor, lost his mother to diabetes and spent the next 20 years finding a way to overcome it. My brother was dying of diabetes, and I was just starting to need insulin when we came across this definitive work which came out in February 2005. We both lead mostly normal lives now. It's a life saver, and the best money you'll ever spend on the subject if you decide to go that way.
You might want to check Abe Books, Alibri's, or Amazon.com for a good used copy cheap. I bought mine new, and I think it was about $35. I don't get any money from anybody for telling you this--just want to help, and the techniques in this book is what made the difference for me and mine. Best of luck.

Answer 8

Numb feet is common in advanced diabetes where nerve damage has occured, but it certainly isnt a first sign. The 3 main early signs are excessive thirst, excessive urination and lack of energy.
Diabetes cannot be cured, but it can be effectively controlled with medication, diet and exercise. Wait and see what the doctor says before making any changes.

diabetic symptoms

Diabetes, especially Type 2 diabetes (formerly called adult-onset, obesity-related, and non-insulin dependent), is sneaky. There are lots of variations (borderline, mild, progressive, ...), and lots of initial symptoms, including none at all.

=======
foot numbness, never damage

Your impression that foot numbness may be due to diabetes is correct, but that sensation problem usually develops much later on in the course of diabetes. It's called diabetic neuropathy, and is a kind of nerve damage, usually in sensory nerves in the feet (first) and eventually hands (later and not always). There is currently no effective treatment known for this sort of nerve damage. However, there are numerous reasons for foot numbness, and so yours is not evidence pure of diabetes.

========
diagnosing diabetes

Check with your doctor, and specifically request that you be tested for diabetes. There are two tests which can be made right off. The first is Hb1a which looks at your hemoglobin for a kind of average of the blood glucose level over the last 90 days or so. It's not completely diagnostic, however. The other test, a pin prick sort of thing, looks at your blood glucose just then. It is diagnostic, however it must be taken carefully since a recent meal (or lack of) will affect the readings. Should be a couple of hours since you last ate anything. Any fasting blood glucose reading greater than 125 mg//dl is diagnostic, however, several readings over a week or two are useful, as there are several things which can raise blood glucose, including infection and stress (physical or emotional) and some drugs.

===========
what to do if you're diabetic (or not -- just about the same thing)

Especially if you are overweight, have relatives with diabetes, or are getting along in age, you should check with your doctor about whether you might actually have diabetes.

As for what you can do, there is no cure for either kind of diabetes mellitus (Type 1 or Type 2). What can happen is that a mild case of Type 2 can regress if diet, exercise, and weight are improved, to the point that your blood glucose tests are normal. Not a cure really, as the underlying problems cells have absorbing glucose (ie, listening to insulin) are still present.

What you should do, whether or not your actually have diabetes, is to

**exercise sensibly. Perhaps 3 30-45 minute sessions per week (a brisk walk seems to be enough; marathons and power lifting and expensive gym sessions seem not to be necessary), Even if you're not diabetic this is good advice anyway.

**avoid junk foods (ie, those with no nutrients except carbohydrates and maybe some fat, and salt) and eat a generally balanced diet, just like Mom insisted on all those years ago. There is no food which is forbidden to diabetics, including sugar, nor any which is known to improve diabetes (despite persistent rumors about cinnamon). However, since your now diabetic body is no longer automatically compensating for you when you eat badly, diabetics have to learn how to do it by thinking about it consciously. Except for distinguishing between the guff and bushwa about nutrition being touted by all and sundry (and certainly by almost every one of the diet books and Oprah and ...) and good thinking and information and sense about nutrition, there's nothing much very difficult about any of it, once you can distinguish BS from actual information. Richard Bernstein, the very first diabetic to test his own blood for glucose (hospitals or doctor's offices before him) went on to become a doctor and wrote a good book about diabetes (bad title though). It's worth looking into, as are most of the publications from the American Diabetes Association, though there is so much with such varying levels of detail that it's easy to get lost. The nice watercolor brocures from the drug companies are worth much, given their almost missing content, unless you like wash drawings of Dick and Jane type families.

**lose weight, especially in and around abdominal organs. This kind of fat seems to provide a trigger for developing Type 2 diabetes (it's probably a kind of immune system signal, but these are early days yet and much has to be figured out). it seems that a modest loss, say 5 or 10 pounds, is sufficient in many cases to turn off the signal. Good for you in any case, whether or not it prevents your developing Type 2.

In general, beware miracle cures, or magic foods, or drugs, or supplements, or dangrous things you MUST avoid. There's a great deal of quackeyr and snake oil floating around about diabetes, probably because there's no medical cure and it can be a real pain for those who have it. We know lots about both major types, after a lot of research, and it's very clear that most of these nostrums and diets and warnings and such are very unlikely to have any real clinical benefit for diabetics. And we now have pretty good approaches (if not cures and awkward nuisances) to managing diabetes in hearly all cases. No magic required.

Diabetes is an unfortunate ailment. A lot of self control is essential in this case. Constant indulgence could be dangerous. You can find some good information and home remedies at this website http://ailments.in/diabetes.html
