It is a website run by 2 doctors that specialize in treating diabetes. Get one of their books and read it. It will change your life.
Diet and exercise help with diabetes … BUT … you better be seeing a MD on a regular basis. Diabetes causes too many serious things to go wrong with the body.
Exercise. It lowers your blood sugar, and the endorphins it produces elevates you mood. Actually, it won’t cure diabetes (nothing will), but it can possibly improve your blood sugar enough that you might not need medication any longer (depending on how severe your diabetes is).

My husband reversed his diabetes in 2 weeks. Very easy. For the first two weeks eat only veggies (mostly green). Eat all day long be steaming a pot and then reheat with steam. Sprinkle Stabilized Rice Bran powder (NOW Brand 3 bucks at health food store and loaded with vitamin B) it is not a cereal it is a powder that comes in a pound bag. Take Glucose Stabilizer (Jarrow Brand at Health food store) After your first two weeks only take one with each meal, not the 2 they recommend you won’t need two. About 18 bucks. Get your veggies frozen at Walmart in big bags for 6.50 a bag. Add protein of steamed chicken or organic beef (broil it). You can reheat in steamer for your small portions throughout the day. IT is very very easy but you have got to stop the fast food, fatty foods and fruit for the first month or two. You can add a little bit into your diet later but never ever go back to the pasta and pizzas. Good Luck. Oh, don’t microwave. It changes soemthing in the food and you are not getting the natural nutrients you need. Buy a vegetable steamer to cook and reheat your food. Exercise really really automatically reduces glucose levels. Start a routine that you know you will enjoy and do at least 3 days a week. Your depression will leave you along with you diabetes. It worked for my husband.
1. Get your diet in check. This is the #1 most important thing you can do to heal yourself. Your body will not function properly with toxins in it. Eliminate manmade products from your diet. Yes, this means no sodas, processed foods, and junk. It sounds impossible but I assure you it’s not. Eat only fresh organic food and cook from scratch.
2. Drink unlimited amounts of water, organic green or white tea, and fresh juices. Buy a juice machine and juice your own fruits and veggies. If you must drink alcohol, drink only red wine or dark beer, like guiness.
3. Supplement your diet with vitamin C, fish oil, vitamin e.
4. Exercise. No you don’t have to splurdge on a gym membership. Just walking outdoors for an hour a day can have dramatic effects on your health and emotional state.
5. Devote yourself to a healthy sleep pattern. Go to bed at 10 and get up at 6. Every day. Do not sleep in. This is the healthiest sleep pattern for your body.
6. DO NOT TAKE DRUGS/MEDICATIONS.
7. Diabetic Foods:
sweet potatoes
whole grains (wild rice, barley, lentils, brown rice)
dark leafy greens
beans and all legumes
fish
lean meats
salad greens
berries

Very good souce is the book “Glutathione. Your body’s most powerful protector” by Jimmy Gutman, MD, researcher and emergency physician. Glutathione is a molecule naturally occurring in every cell of the body. It is responsible for the proper functioning of the immune system, detoxification, recycling of antioxidants and several other things. In a nutshell, Glutathione is the first line defense against diseases. Chapter 10 of this book addresses diabetes. Chapter 2 addresses Glutathione and detoxification (chemical sensitivity, exposure to toxins in the environment on a daily basis can cause depression and chronic fatigue syndrome). It also tells you how to effectively and naturally raise your Glutathione levels, namely with the bioactive whey protein Immunocal. Immunocal is clinically proven to raise Glutathione levels. Case studies are presented throughout the book. You can email me if you have questions.
My advice also is whatever natural cure you choose make sure there is science and true medical research behind it, not just pretty promises.

Treatment: Any successful method of diabetes treatment should aim at removal of the actual cause of the disease and building up of the whole health-level of the patient. Diet plays a vital role in such a treatment. The primary dietary consideration for a diabetic patient is that he should be a strict lacto-vegetarian and take a low-calorie, low-fat, alkaline diet of high quality natural foods. Fruits, nuts, and vegetables, whole meal bread and dairy products form a good diet for the diabetic. These foods are best eaten in as dry a condition as possible to ensure thorough salivation during the first part of the process of digestion.
Cooked starchy foods should be avoided as in the process of cooking the cellulose envelops of the starch granules burst and consequently, the starch is far too easily absorbed in the system. The excess absorbed has to be got rid of by the kidneys and appears as sugar in the urine. With raw starchy foods, however, the saliva and digestive juices in the small intestine regulate the quantities require to be changed into sugar for the body’s needs. The unused and undigested portion of raw starchy foods does not become injurious to the system, as it does not readily ferment.
The diabetic should not be afraid to eat fresh fruits and vegetables which contain sugar and starch. Fresh fruits contain sugar fructose, which does not need insulin for its metabolism and is well tolerated by diabetics. Fats and oils should be taken sparingly, for they are apt to lower the tolerance for proteins and starches. Emphasis should be on raw foods as they stimulate and increase insulin production. For protein, home-made cottage cheese, various forms of soured milks and nuts are best. The patient should avoid overeating and take four or five small meals a day rather than three large ones.
The following diet should serve as a guideline.
1. Upon arising: A glass of lukewarm water with freshly squeezed lemon juice.
2. Breakfast: Any fresh fruit with the exception of bananas, soaked prunes, a small quantity of whole meal bread with butter and fresh milk.
3. Lunch: Steamed or lightly cooked green vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes, spinach, turnip, asparagus and mushrooms, two or three whole wheat chapatis according to appetite and a glass of butter-milk or curd.
4. Mid-afternoon: A glass of fresh fruit or vegetable juice.
5. Dinner: A large bowl of salad made up of all the raw vegetables in season. The salad may be followed by a hot course, if desired, and fresh homemade cottage cheese.
6. Bedtime Snack: A glass of fresh milk.
Flesh foods find no place in this regimen, for they increase the toxemic condition underlying the diabetic state and reduce the sugar tolerance. On the other hand, a non-stimulating vegetarian diet, especially one made up of raw foods, promotes and increases sugar tolerance. Celery, cucumbers, string beans, onion and garlic are especially beneficial. String bean pod tea is an excellent natural substitute for insulin and highly beneficial in diabetes. The skin of the pods of green beans are extremely rich in silica and certain hormone substances which are closely related to insulin. One cup of string bean tea is equal to one unit of insulin. Cucumbers contain a hormone needed by the cells of the pancreas for producing insulin. Onion and garlic have proved beneficial in reducing blood sugar in diabetes.
Recent scientific investigations have established that bitter gourd (karela) is highly beneficial in the treatment of diabetes. It contains an insulin-like principle, known as plant-insulin which has been found effective in lowering the blood and urine sugar levels. It should, therefore, be included liberally in the diet of the diabetic. For better results, the diabetic should take the juice of about 4 or 5 fruits every morning on an empty stomach. The seeds of bitter gourd can be added to food in a powdered form. Diabetics can also use bitter gourd in the form of decoction by boiling the pieces in water or in the form of dry powder.
Another effective home remedy is jambul fruit known as jamun in the vernacular. It is regarded in traditional medicine as a specific against diabetes because of its effect on the pancreas. The fruits as such, the seeds and fruit juice are all useful in the treatment of this disease. The seeds contain a glucoside ‘jamboline’ which is believed to have power to check the pathological conversion of starch into sugar in cases of increased production of glucose. They should be dried and powdered. This powder should be taken mixed in milk, curd, or water.
The patient should avoid tea, coffee, and cocoa because of their adverse influence on the digestive tract. Other foods which should be avoided are white bread, white flour products, sugar tinned fruits, sweets, chocolates, pastries, pies, puddings, refined cereals and alcoholic drinks. The most important nutrient in the treatment of diabetes is manganese which is vital in the production of natural insulin. It is found in citrus fruits, in the outer covering of nuts, grains, and in the green leaves of edible plants. Other nutrients of special value are zinc, B complex vitamins and poly-unsaturated fatty acids.
Exercise is also an important factor in the treatment of diabetes. Light games, jogging and swimming are recommended. Yogic asanas such as bhujangasana, shalabhasana, dhanurasana, paschimottanasana, sarvangasna, halasana, ardha-matsyendrasana, and shavasana, yogic krisyas like jalneti and kunajl and pranayamas such as kapalbhati, anuloma-viloma, and ujjai are highly beneficial.
Hydrotherapy and colonic irrigations form a very important part of treatment. The colon should be thoroughly cleansed every second day or so, until the bowel discharge assumes normal characteristics. Bathing in cold water greatly increases the circulation and enhances the capacity of the muscles to utilize sugar.
The diabetic patient should eliminate minor worries from his daily life. He must endeavor to be more easy-going and should not get unduly worked up by the stress and strain of life.

Causes: Depleted functioning of the adrenal glands is one of the main causes of mental depression. Irregular diet habits cause digestive problems and lead to the assimilation of fats. An excess of carbohydrates like cereals, white sugar, coffee, tea, chocolates and comparatively less quantities of vegetables and fruits in the diet may result in indigestion. Due to indigestion, gases are produced in the digestive tract, causing compression over the diaphragm in the region of the heart and lungs. This in turn, reduces the supply of oxygen to the tissues, which raises the carbon dioxide level, causing general depression.
The excessive and indiscriminate use of drugs also leads to faulty assimilation of vitamins and minerals by the body and ultimately causes depression. The use of aspirin leads to deficiencies of vitamin C and antacids can cause deficiencies of calcium and vitamin B. Diabetes, low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), and weakness of the liver resulting from the use of refined or processed foods, fried foods, and an excessive intake of fats may also lead to depression.
The Cure: The modern medical system treats depression with anti-depression drugs which provide temporary relief but have harmful side-effects and do not remove the causes or prevent its recurrence. The harmful side effects include gross liver damage, hypersensitivity, insomnia, hallucinations, a confused state, convulsions, a fall in blood pressure which brings on headaches and dizziness, blurred vision, difficulty in inhaling and urine retention. The plan of action for self-treatment of depression consists of regulating the diet, exercise, scientific relaxation, and meditation.
Diet has a profound effect on the mental health of a person. Even a single nutritional deficiency can cause depression in susceptible people. Dr. Pricilla, associate clinical professor at the University of California, prescribes nutritional therapy to build up brain chemicals, such as serotonin and norepinephrine that affect mood and are often lacking in depressed people. She recommends eating foods rich in B vitamins, such as whole grains, green vegetables, eggs and fish.
The diet of persons suffering from depression should completely exclude tea, coffee, alcohol, chocolate, and cola, all white flour products, sugar, food colorings, chemical additives, white rice, and strong condiments. The diet should be restricted to three meals. Fruits can be taken in the morning for breakfast with milk and a handful of nuts and seeds. Lunch may consist of steamed vegetables, whole-wheat chappatis and a glass of buttermilk. For dinner, green vegetable salad and all available sprouts such as alfalfa seeds, mung, cottage cheese or a glass of buttermilk would be ideal.
Activity and Exercise: The depressive mood can be overcome by activity. Those who are depressive will forget their misery by doing something. They should turn away from themselves and consider others. At home they can take to decorating, repairing or constructing something new. The pleasure of achievement overcomes the distress of misery.
Exercise also plays an important role in the treatment of depression. It not only keep the body physically and mentally fit but also provides recreation and mental relaxation, it is nature’ best tranquilizer. According to Dr. Robert Brown, a clinical associate professor at the University of Virginia School of Medicine. “Exercise produces chemical and psychological changes that improves your mental health. It changes the levels of hormones in blood and may elevate your beta-endorphins(mood-affecting brain chemicals). Exercise may also improve the function of the autonomic nervous system.”
Exercise also gives a feeling of accomplishment and thus reduces the sense of helplessness. Some form of active exercise, must be undertaken each day at a regular hour. To be really useful, exercise should be taken in such a manner as to bring into action all the muscles of the body in a natural way. Walking is one such exercise. It is, however, so gentle in character that one must walk several kilometers in a brisk manner to constitute a fair amount of exercise. Yogic asanas such as vakrasana, bhujangasana, shalabhasana, halasana, paschimottanasana, sarvangasana and shavasana and pranayamas like kapalbhati, anuloma-viloma and bhastrika are highly beneficial in the treatment of depression.
Relaxation and Meditation: The patient must gain control over his nervous system and chanelize his mental and emotional activities into restful harmonious vibrations. This can be achieved by ensuring sufficient rest and sleep under right conditions. He must also learn the art of scientific relaxation and meditation which will go a long way in curing depression.
Relaxation enables the muscles to work more efficiently and eliminates fatigue by promoting venous blood circulation throughout the body. The best method of relaxation is to practice shavasana or the ‘dead pose.’ The procedure for this asana has been outlined in chapter 7 on yoga therapy.
Meditation involves training the mind to remain fixed on a certain external or internal location. All the mental faculties should be directed, without cessation, towards the object of meditation. It can be achieved by constant practice. It will be advisable to meditate on God or Atman as one becomes imbued with the quality of the object on which one meditates.
Meditation will help create an amount of balance in the nervous system. This would enable the glands to return to a correct state of hormonal balance and thereby overcome the feeling of depression. Regularity of time, place and practice are very important in meditation. Regularity conditions the mind to slowing down its activities with a minimum delay. The most effective times are early dawn and dusk, when the atmosphere is serene and peaceful.
A neutral immersion bath for one hour daily is also helpful in the treatment of depression. This bath is administered in a bathtub which should be properly fitted with hot and cold water connections. The patient should lie in the tub after filling it with water at a temperature ranging from 92 degrees to 98 degrees F. The head should be kept cold with a cold compress.
Hope this helps, Good Luck.
