If only it were that simple! I can't tell you how many times I have read, "Such & Such will cure Diabetes" only to discover it is based around type two! In type two diabetes the pancreas still makes insulin, the body just doesn't know how to use it. Most often it is triggered by stress, inactive lifestyle, or poor eating. So of course a change of life style will make a difference!
I have type one diabetes. Type one is cause by genetic factors, or sometimes even a cultural change. With this the body is completely unable to make insulin. I've had it since I was a kid... and there is no cure! Unless someone in the bio medical field comes up with a device that can not only make insulin, but also deliver it to cells with out having the immune system reject it... It's a long way off.
Type one and type two diabetes really need to be called two different things. While they both deal with the pancreas, type one diabetes can't be fix so easily because the body doesn't make insulin! In type two the body still makes insulin!!!! For people with type two there is still hope! Of course seeing a doctor is a must, but eating healthy and get moving will ultimately get the insulin that there body already makes where it need to be. I guess the only simple part of it is just take care of yourself.
