Does a Cure for Diabetes Exist?

 

LET'S START WITH SOME GOOD NEWS:
BLOOD SUGARS IN PREDIABETES AND TYPE 2 DIABETES CAN BE REVERSED TO NORMAL UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

 
 

How do you do it?

  • Focus less on a specific diet and instead create a pattern of eating. This should include fish at least twice a week, fruits and vegetables every day, and limits on drinks besides water.

  • Exercise smarter not longer. Consider high-intensity exercise such as power walking for 10 minutes, three times a week.

  • Recognize the mind-body connection. Stress will impact your hormones, which will affect your blood sugar. Learn how mindfulness, meditation, and gratitude play a role in diabetes management.

Realize you have the power to take control of your risk. Get informed and use that power!
