What is the best natural treatment for adult diabetes?

Answer 1

By "adult Diabetes" I will assume you mean type two diabetes. Since you said "natural treatment" I will assume you mean without drugs.

First, it is essential that your diabetes is not wildly out of control before you stop drugs, or stop conventional treatment. Not doing so can mean getting very sick, or worse.

In China, where drugs are not used very much, type 2 adult diabetes is basically controlled by avoiding sugar and excess carbohydrates. Nearly complete avoidance of sugar, that is, dextrose, glucose, maltose, galactose, sucrose, fructose, etc is necessary.

It seem that in the United States, few people have the discipline to do this, that is avoiding all sugar.

Next, regular physical exercise will lower blood sugar. Very important!

Next, building up muscle mass reduces insulin resistance, and can help get sugar levels down. This is very important!

Finally, loosing weight can bring many people to near normal sugar levels. Again, this can make or break your sugar level control.

Other than this there is no magic bullet at this time. The four steps above can help more than half the people to control their diabetes.

In Chinese Medicine, diabetes is a wasting and thirsting disease that can be caused by poor eating habits, emotional stresses, or genetics. The pancreas is technically part of the Spleen function in this system, and can be repaired in Type II diabetes with Spleen Tonic herbs, acupressure/acupuncture, food therapy, and Qi Gong exercises.

Type I diabetes can be influenced by these Traditional Chinese Medicine, but is hard to reverse unless caught in the very early stages. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can effectively stabilize blood sugar in both Type I & Type II diabetes mellitus. These diabetes herbs are also effective at reversing insulin resistance and hypoglycemia, that are known to be pre-curser to diabetes.
