While it still lacks scietific results, it is believed that Alpha Lipoic Acid can assist in control of type 2 (adult-onset0 diabetes, as it is reported to increase the intake of glucose by the cells. Studies have also shown some promise in relieving neuropathy in daibetics, and this antioxidant is also good for preventing vitamin C and E deficiency. Hope this helps!

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

I realize that conventional health care is necessary and appropriate. That having been said, there are also 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.
Just recently found this 8-minute non-profit video http://www.rawfor30days.com/view.html , about diabetes diet. Click on the link, then click 'View Windows Media' to watch it.You'll be glad you saw it.

I've been researching some vitamins and supplements and actually there are several that can help. Chromium has shown to have an effect on blood sugar and insulin. Cinnamon is also something you should look into. Neither is approved by the FDA so there is no way to tell drug interactions. I hope this helps. Here are some links that can help!

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.
And get this - it has nothing to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past. It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.

Metformin works just fine for type 2s. She either needs to watch her diet and/or exercise routine more closely, or her pancreas has shut down (not likely). Go to my diabetes info page and read what works. If her Metformin isn't working, it's because she's either taking in too many carbs and sugar, is continuing to consume dairy products (a huge no-no), isn't losing enough weight, isn't exercising enough, or any combination of the above. Or, she isn't taking the Metformin 1/2 hour before meals as prescribed. In any case, she can certainly benefit from reading what works for me: http://www.geocities.com/seabulls69/Type_II_Diabetes.html §
