Traditional Chinese medicine addresses diabetes type 2 through tonic herbs, acupuncture, qi gong, and food therapy. There are many tonic herbs that can not only lower blood sugar and reverse insulin resistance, but heal the pancreas. Natural therapies such as tonic herbs work best when used early on; the chances of reversing pancreatic damage lessen with each passing year of diabetes. Here are some of the herbs that treat diabetes:

Count carbs.
Eat 2-3 (women) carb choices per meal 3-4 (men).
Space out your carb choices out through the day, eat protein wioth each meal and snack.

Whole grains, whole fruits, no juice or sweet, sugary desserts.

Walk 30 minutes every day.
Exercise can control your blood sugar as much as medication for some people

Diabetes is treatable and manageable with one of the most important steps being exercising and diet. Physical activity can lower your blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol. The best goal is to aim for a total of about 30 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week. However, if you haven’t been very active recently, you can start out with 5 or 10 minutes a day and work up to more time each week.
* Take a brisk walk
* Go dancing
* Take a low-impact aerobics class
* Swim or do water aerobic exercises
* Bike ride outdoors

There’s all kinds of info about various herbs and teas and cinnamon, and not artichokes too? It’s easy enough to test if any of this stuff works by just checking your sugar on your glucometer.

the drugs may be a bit harsh but they do make life so very much easier to deal with! been on metformin for about 12 years now! just added insulins about 4 years ago.

You can go very very low carb food plan and quadruple your exercise regime and you may be able to put off taking the drugs for several years.

type 2 diabetes is unfortunately progressive. It progresses as it will with no reguard to how much you are fighting it. Very tight food plan, medications, heavy exercise 7 days a week don’t always work to slow it down.

read this site first then go to the forum on the next site for food planning help as there are several people there who have successfully done only diet and exercise to control the glucose issues.

Diabetes sucks. I think I may have it because I get light headed a lot during the day. I bought a home test and I am going to monitor myself.
