Send more money for more research, right?

Fact is that diabetes, be it of the type 1 or 2 variety, is making handsome profits for pharmaceutical share holders. It’s a condition that just keeps on giving – even to those who supposedly do “research” to find a “cure”.

I have had type 1 diabetes since 1976 and I have seen these reports come and go more times than I can count. I too used to hold hope whenever I’d hear another of these false prophet accounts. Well, let me know when the “cure” is in. However, I won’t hold my breath.

To all diabetics: Cut your carbs and reduce your insulin as much as possible. Exercise and eat healthy foods. Take supplements such as antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Take a daily multi twice daily as your frequent urination washes out nutrition in a hurry. Get your A1c as low as you can (below 6.0 is ideal using Canadian numbers). Finally, read Dr. Richard Bernstein’s Diabetes Solution. His work has saved my life. He himself is type 1 diabetic since 1946. He’s obviously doing something right.

If a cure comes, great !! In the mean time don’t hold your breath and take charge of your disease. Many of your doctors and dietitians don’t have a clue.
