Signs and Symptoms of Diabetes
Diabetes is a serious illness where there is a persistently high glucose level in the bloodstream. Glucose (blood sugar) is the primary source of energy for the cells in our body, and diabetes occurs when the glucose level is not regulated properly by the hormone known as insulin.Common symptoms of diabetes include:
- frequent trips to the bathroom
- unquenchable thirst
- weight loss
- fatigue and weakness
- numbness or tingling sensation in the hands, feet or legs
- blurred vision
- dry or itchy skin
- frequent infections or cuts and bruises that take a long time to heal
Causes of Diabetes
There are two common types of diabetes:- Type 1 diabetes occurs when the body does not produce any insulin on its own. Type 1 diabetes has often been considered a childhood problem, but it can also develop in adults. This form of diabetes requires regular insulin injections for survival, and there is currently no known cure.
- Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin or when there is an insulin deficiency. This type of diabetes can often be managed with regular exercise and a proper diet.
- obesity
- smoking
- having a family history of diabetes
- eating an unbalanced diet
- regularly consuming too much sugar, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
- emotional stress
- age
- certain virus infections such as the Coxsackie B virus

Research has shown that small doses of Cinnamon
can be beneficial in treating Type 2 Diabetes, since it can reduce blood sugar levels
while simultaneously increasing the body's natural production of insulin.

Using Exercise as a Home Remedy for Diabetes
Obesity is one of the main causes of diabetes. Most people with Type 2 diabetes are 30 to 60 pounds
overweight. For them only losing this excessive weight can control their Diabetes. Muscle building
and weight training can play an important role in Diabetes control. Having more muscle and less fat
reduces the insulin intake requirement.

I have been suffering from type 2 diabetes since menopause and was on diet, exercise and tabs. Last year I had fruit (papaya) poison and landed in the hospital with diebtes shooting up to 300. Since then I have been on insulin and glimy 4 twice a day with bp tabs with no results except it just does not go high and carbuncles on my back, a few on the abdomen, and arms. I do have sleeplessness alternate days, feel hungry, tired and knee pains after 15 minutes
walk. My age is 58. Whats the best remedy?

Alternative solutions should be matched with standardized testing..Be sure as a diabetic you know your Hemoglobin A1c score , cholestrol and triglyceride blood levels.Your doctor should order that bloodwork for you.. The A1c score rates the amount of glucose in your blood average for the prior 90 days.. thats the gauge of your level of glucose control. Also test yourself daily with a glucose meter so you know what effects foods have on your blood counts.. I prefer the one touch ultrasmart becaus eit can show me my weekly monthly and 90 day averages..that keeps me in charge of teh ailment ..not the ailment in charge of me... do you hear me folks ?? get busy babe. We all need to be a PRO at DIABETES control.. you can train yourslef like i did.

Ive been a Diabetic since 1993. I was type 2 then went to type 1 insulin.. I made up my mind to stop it in its tracks. I have a gym in my basement I work out everyday strength training and cardio. (lean muscle) burns more fat. After a few months of exercise and eliminating empty calories in snacks , no junk food etc I DROPPED 55 POUNDS.
My hemoglobin A1c score is 5.7 which is excellent..NO MORE INSULLIN and got off some other meds as well I only take metformin now and vitamin supplements.. EXERCISE is like a pill. learn to count your carbs in every meal. after a while you will retain the information and work out daily like an automatic pilot without effort..Im 51 years of age weigh 172 and have a 8 pack of abs and Im Ripped... God be Praised ! You can do it..get your mind right !!

I have been a diabetic for over 30 years and have had a difficult time controlling my blood sugars. However, since I have been using vinegar my blood sugars have been much much lower. In fact, for the first time ever my A1c was normal! In spite of my great response, my doctor, an endocrine specialist, dismisses the value of vinegar. I have tried cinnamon in the past but did not experience any appreciable response.

The ONLY treatment for Type 1 Diabetes is Insulin Injections. Insulin is destroyed by stomach acids. and so canNOT be taken by mouth. there are NO Insulin Pills. you need to lose theweight and get theweight down and then it goes awayyou can keep it at bay doing this all the time.

One thing to watch out for with the pill-form of Apple Cider Vinegar is that some pills don't actually contain any ACV! Companies often use other weak organic acid salts plus flavoring to make it smell like ACV. For this reason, the liquid form of ACV is usually a safer bet.
Posted by Jeimja on Jan 21 2008 16:43:52
The article mentioned apple cider vinegar ... there are several companies that offer this in pill form, like those reviewed at http://www.nutritionaltree.com/reviews/weight-loss/weight-loss-combinations/vitabase_cider-vinegar-complex.aspx. Does anyone know if the pills are as effective as drinking straight vinegar?

I`ve attended a discourse held by one of the Toronto life insurance companies presenting the possible remedies and solutions for diabetes. The majority of the people voted for the whole foods to be the best remedy and they provided wonderful recipes to encourage people. They regarded the most unendurable symptom the thirst which makes diabetic people to desire the extra cold drinks which can cause flu. It would be so great to have regular meetings with people suffering from diabetes and providing opportunity to do exercises or try the products which are concidered as remedy for this terrible disease.
