Here's an article which I read today regarding Charcot Foot Syndrome, which is a condition resulting from diabetes which causes the foot to collapse. Here's the link.

The more information we can learn about this disease, the more equipped we will be to help ourselves and each other.

Proceed at your Own Pace
The other day I was talking with one of my colleagues about what I occasionally refer to as my "personal miracle" of reversing and healing diabetes. Those of you who know me are aware that I am on a mission to assist as many people as possible who desire to rid themselves of diabetes and any other physical malady by using natural remedies.
That day, I mentioned my support group to my colleague who shared with me that her father is a diabetic. She mentioned that he does not talk about his health, no one knows what his fasting or A1C numbers are, and he insists on adding large amounts of white sugar to his tea. Her annoyance was obvious.
At that point, I informed her that her father does not sound as though he is ready to change his lifestyle, which is what is required if one desires to reverse and eventually cure the disease. I also pointed out that health is a matter of choice, and it appears that her father is not choosing health at this time. As difficult as it may be, we are not in control of anyone's life other than our own. We do not like to see a loved one acting in ways which are detrimental to their health, but there is nothing we can do for him/her directly other than pray. Nagging others and judging them does not work, and in addition, can cause the other person undue stress and may even ruin the relationship.
The message here is that everyone progresses at their own pace. Some take longer than others. Reward others for even the slightest improvement or change in lifestyle. Compliments go a long way!!! If a loved one who is diabetic chooses to use two teaspoons of sugar instead of three in their tea, acknowledge them for it!
I personally believe that my colleague's father will one day choose health. I can recall more than one time during my journey of reversing diabetes when I just HAD to have something sweet which contained white sugar. Yes - I fell off the wagon and had a chocolate-chip cookie from McDonald's. You know the kind - they're large and soft and gooey and loaded with white sugar and God knows what else. It was WONDERFUL. It was also a very bad decision on my behalf even though it was a conscious, thought-out decision.
Did I condemn myself for having a chocolate-chip cookie from McDonald's??? Absolutely not. I acknowledged that I needed to try hard not to do that again and I went on with my life. I did that about 3 times, and have never done it again.
The point is, none of us are perfect. Our journeys are personal and are truly are own. Respect yourself and respect others for their decisions. We can share information, but we do not have the right to force anyone to change, even if the change is for their own good. If someone asks for assistance or advice, give it to them wholeheartedly. If he/she chooses to ignore your advice even though they requested it, that's ok. It's not your job to force them. And, one day - they just might follow through with your advice!

Queen Mother

Choices
We all make choices each day, whether it is what to wear or what we are going to do for entertainment. The most important choices involve our health, for we all know that we must at minimum be in satisfactory heath in order to carry out our daily responsibilities. "Health is wealth."
What types of choices do you make regarding diabetes? If you were diagnosed with diabetes, as long as you are not a minor (under 18 years old), you do have the power to choose what you may or may not do regarding treatment. Insulin vs. oral medication? Insulin vs. natural remedies? Oral medication vs. natural remedies?
Knowing that your health is the most important tangible aspect of your life, how do you choose among the volumes of information given to you by doctors, family members, spouses, well-meaning friends, the media, medical journals and even strangers on social media networks?
The first thing to do is realize that there are actually no right or wrong answers. I have personally chosen to reverse and defeat diabetes by using natural remedies, however that is what I am passionate about and therefore it worked for me. Do I suggest that everyone diagnosed with diabetes attempt to cure it in the same manner which I did? Of course! However, that may or may not be the right step for you to take at the present time.
The best advice I can offer is for you to gather as much information as you can and then any changes you make, do it under strict observation and counsel from a licensed medical practitioner.
It would be reckless for you to throw away your medication and attempt to defeat the disease on your own. If you choose to become medicine-free, the correct path is to continue using the insulin or oral medication while adding the natural remedies to your daily regimen, under the care of your doctor! As you see your blood sugar levels decline, your doctor will most likely reduce the dosage of your medication. Continue in this manner until you are able to become medicine-free. You will reach a point in the decline of the disease when you will actually be able to call your doctor and say "I want to reduce my insulin dosage by 5 units (or whatever the amount)." As the days and weeks go by, you will become an expert on your body, as long as you are consistent and diligent with your efforts.
I wish I could tell you how quickly your blood sugar levels will begin to decline once you add natural remedies to your health regimen, however I am aware that we are all different and our bodies react differently to different things. I can only give you my experience, and can state without reservation that from what I hear others saying, my experience is the norm, as opposed to the exception. When I began adding natural remedies to my health regimen, my blood sugar levels began to decline within a few days. I was so encouraged that I never looked back, and within about 3 months, I was completely free from insulin and oral medication.
Throughout the process of returning to health, it is important to refrain from judging yourself. There are times that you may feel like giving up and settling for a life of forever using medication with the hope of reducing the dosage. That's ok. If you need to be in that space for awhile, do so, because to force yourself to do otherwise would be adding additional stress which, as a diabetic, you certainly do not need. Allow yourself to feel, to be, to do and not to do. When you are ready, you will make the necessary changes.
I do hope this information has been helpful. Feel free to contact me with your questions, comments, stories, or just to say hello! Contact me for more information as to how you may purchase the Natural Organic Diabetes Solution Supplement (NODSS). http://www.thenewdiabetessolution.com.

Never Stop Seeking
Access to information is one of the most important resources which exists today. Without proper and accurate information, we are unable to make the best possible decisions in any area of our lives. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes, it is important to never stop seeking new information regarding treatment and cures. Your life is actually in your own hands, not anyone else's.
Today my research regarding diabetes led me to various websites which discuss the effect of aloe vera juice or aloe vera gel on fasting blood glucose levels. I was aware of various benefits of aloe vera, however learning that it assists in lowering tryglicerides was fascinating.
Here's a link to one of the sites I looked at today. Note that I am not affiliated with the site, or any products advertised therein. The information is invaluable. Here the link:

Take Control of your Health
Do you have a tendency to simply accept what others are telling you regarding your body? Do you take other's advice? In itself, that may not be such a bad thing to do, however before taking other people's advice regarding your health, it's a good idea to consider the source. Who is giving you the advice? Is it your doctor, or is it a friend, relative, television commercial, article from a magazine, co-worker....you get the idea.
There are very few people who can actually tell you what is best for your body, especially if you are dealing with a medical condition which they have not personally experienced. It is amazing the way so many medical doctors prescribe medication, yet do not have any idea whatsoever of how that medication will affect you personally, until you contact them with your feedback.
That being said, this is not an attempt to discredit the medical profession, rather, I wholeheartedly suggest that you pay attention to your body and be prepared to accurately describe exactly what you are feeling when you speak with your doctor. There are many conditions which technology can detect, however sometimes you have to use common sense when taking prescription medication. Your body will usually give you indications as to whether the prescription is too strong, or whether it is rejecting whatever you are using. Listen to your body. Don't discount any of your feelings, especially the ones which are reoccurring. Sometimes you have to be proactive and let your doctor know that there is a possibility that the dosage of your prescription may need to be adjusted, or perhaps changed altogether.
Of course, I am advocating for natural cures, however be clear that a decision to rid yourself of prescription medication is solely yours. Also, choosing natural cures as opposed to allopathic treatment is something which I strongly suggest that you do under the direction of a licensed professional, and it should be a gradual transition.
I was using insulin and oral medication for just about two months before I began my transition to natural cures (homeopathic). The decision was easy for me because I had already made up my mind at the point of being diagnosed with diabetes that I did not have any space in my life for medication. Everyone progresses at their own rate and therefore I ask that you please do not compare yourself with anyone else. Your journey is yours, and yours alone. There is no judgement involved here. You ultimately must feel comfortable with your decisions so that you do not add undue stress to your situation.
I was using herbal remedies along with the insulin. I noticed that each week, my blood sugar readings were gradually decreasing. I stayed in touch with my medical doctor weekly. I did not share with her the fact that I was using the herbal remedies along with the insulin. She kept advising me to decrease the insulin by 5 units each week. (I was originally prescribed 40 units at bedtime and 25 units after each meal.) I could hear the surprise in my doctor's voice each time I reported my progress to her! Finally, I was able to discontinue the insulin, but was told I needed to take oral medication (Glipizide).
I knew that the oral medication would be short lived because from the onset, it made me feel as though I was going crazy - literally! The oral medication gave me heart palpitations, headaches, and I walked around feeling as though my head was detached from my body. It was unbelievable. I recall talking with a woman who, even though we've known each other several years, I did not know she was diabetic. I recall her telling me as though it were yesterday, that she did not take her medication every day because "those pills can kill you." When I described to her the way I was feeling, she suggested that I have the dosage reduced and/or take the pills every other day instead of daily. I tried this and it helped somewhat, however I still did not feel well.
At that point, I began using supplements designed to regulate the blood sugar and saw almost immediate results. I stopped using the oral medication completely a couple of weeks after starting the supplements, and have been prescription medication free ever since.
Again, I cannot stress the importance of working closely with a licensed medical practitioner. In addition, it is important to continue testing daily. I still test daily, however I only test once/day now instead of three times per day. It is also important to have the A1C test done routinely. I have this test administered every few months. My last A1C result was 6.3. This is an incredible decline from the original 13 when I was hospitalized in December 2009. As you are aware, the range for a healthy blood glucose reading is around 6. I am quickly approaching the normal state.
There are many factors involved in taking control of your health. Diet and exercise are key components. Do you drink plenty of water each day? Your level of stress can make or break your efforts to reverse diabetes. Do you have a spiritual orientation? Do you pray or meditate? Do you visualize yourself being in perfect health? How is your home environment? Are you able to relax at home? Here is a youtube video which I enjoy for relaxation. I hope you enjoy it as well. Just click the link below to view the video.
