Are there any known alternative cures for Diabetes?

Looking for an alternative or otherwise cure or aid in dramatically reducing the blood sugar level of diabetics.

Not a one. There is a widespread back of the mind conviction among many that there exists an entire alternative medical structure (ancient knowledge, traditional approaches, ...) which offers cures or treatment ordinary medicine does not. That's a false belief, by and large. Any natural cures which worked as well as ordinary medicine would be quite prominent indeed and wouldn't remain alternative for very long.

consider, in the case of diabetes alone, that a plant long known to help with diabetes (goat's rue) is the source of Glucophage (metformin) and the biguanides generally. Gila monsters (the poisonous lizard from the N American SW desert) is the source of a new diabetes drug nearing approval and release for clinical use. An herb, used in cosmetics because it makes the pupil larger in small doses, is the source of digitalis, still one of the primary drugs in cardiovascular medicine.

The common sorts of diabetes mellitus (type 1 and type 2) is a condition without a cure. And it's a real pain literally and figuratively. There is a lot of quackery and snake oil om consequence. so far, diabetes related research has earned 4 Nobel Prizes, and any advance as effective as some of the advertising claims about 'traditional' cures or treatments would be high on the eligible list for another.

We now understand diabetes about as well as we understand broken legs. There's little treatment for a broken leg aside from setting it, splinting it, treating it carefully, and waiting. And for good reason. Likewise there's good understanding of what's going on in diabetes (type 1 and type 2) and what would be needed to fix them (mostly). We can't do that yet, just as we can't get a broken leg to mend in a couple of days. And that's the state of the art in diabetes treatment, alternative included.

Someday, there'll be a cure... Would save a bundle of money and a lot of nuisance. Support diabetes research and encourage those with research money to assign some to diabetes.

No. Correct eating and exercise can help a lot and if over weight, try to lose weight. (so much easier said than done!) But the gastric bypass surgery has been listed as "curing" diabetes in a lot of type 2 diabetics that had the procedure.

No.

No.

To date there are no cures for any type of diabetes period. In some cases with type 2 or adult onset diabetes, weight reduction, increase in exercise can eliminate the need for meds, but be clear the disease is still present but under better control. Once you have diabetes it is forever until someone does something with perhaps stem cell research.

The only thing effective in controlling diabetes is diet.

What I mean by that is, if you don't control your diet, but take medications, you will rapidly develop the damage and disease associated with type 2 diabetes including sudden death (you've been warned).

Only diet is effective. You must monitor, you must eat correctly or you will die, sooner rather than later. Medications can help, but your success is strictly dependent on how rigidly you follow the program laid out by your doctor. Nothing else works. Fortunately, diet is extremely effective in controllng diabetes and preventing disease, even if your diabetes is advanced.

Do it or die....that's the bottom line. It's your choice.

No. Eating the right combinations of fresh fruit and vegetables. Stay away from all sugar but natural. Carbohydrates, and by trial and error the foods that do elevate your b/s. Many people can eat things that do not bother others. Get with a highly recommended diabetic educator and watch the diet you will get

There was a doctor (medical) on T.V. that advocated the use of cinnamon.

In his book, A Promise Made, A Promise Kept, Dr. Chappell refers to the Lucky 7, six herbs and one mineral that he states will "cure" diabetes. He states that because he uses the word "cure" he cannot sell the formula... The FDA would charge him with some sort of crime.

Self control, diet, and excercise.

The only form of diabetes that can be controled without insulin is type 2, with type 1 your body does not produce enough insulin. If you suffer from type 2 diabetes, try the South Beach Diet, or research the ADA diet, drink at least 3 liters of water per day and get at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise every day, a nise brisk walk is good enough.
