Alternative Diabetes Cure

Diabetes is a condition in which the pancreas is unable to provide enough insulin for the body to break down glucose in the body. Left untreated, diabetes can result in severe, life-threatening complications. Alternative cures for diabetes facilitate healthy sugar and insulin levels, circulation and increased organ function in diabetics through herbal remedies.

Maintain Insulin and Glucose

• Alternative cures work to stabilize insulin and glucose so that injections, dialysis and daily pharmaceuticals may be limited or avoidable altogether. An array of herbs works to restore cells in the pancreas, so that the organ can produce insulin needed by the body for glucose metabolism. Due to the rejuvenating effects of these herbs on the pancreas, stress is alleviated from the liver and kidneys as sugars are broken down and prevented from entering the bloodstream.

  Herbal remedies provided by gymnema sylvestre, Gingko biloba and Asian ginseng naturally stimulate the pancreas to produce and control insulin levels in type 2 diabetes, and are effective in lowering blood sugar levels in type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

  Also, gymnema sylvestre eliminates sugar-cravings in diabetics, allowing for healthy dietary changes that significantly cut down on refined-sugar intake. Sevia is known to treat cravings similarly.

Promote Ocular Health

• Blueberry and bilberry leaf extracts can be taken by diabetics as preventative ocular treatments. These alternative diabetes cures can heal and inhibit the oxidation process caused by free-radical destruction. The antioxidant properties of the leaves restore and protect healthy photoreceptor cells behind the macula, reversing and preventing the effects of extracellular build-up that can lead to macular degeneration in diabetics.

  Additionally, both berry extracts are rich in vitamin C, which provides the body with a natural immune defense so that infection, ulceration and injuries resulting from diabetic neuropathy may be efficiently healed and averted.

Improve Circulation

• Peripheral Vascular Disease diminishes blood flow to the organs, limiting the supply of nutrients and oxygen needed for healthy functioning of the circulatory system. Diabetics commonly experience poor blood circulation to the extremities stunting the healing process of injuries, infection and ulceration resulting from neuropathy.

  Alternative remedies such as cinnamon, ginseng and cayenne work to promote increased circulation throughout the body. The effects of these natural herbs reverse damage caused to blood vessels and tissues due to poor circulation. Healthy blood flow supported by natural herbs allows oxygen to reach peripheral areas of the body, significantly reducing the risks of lower limb amputations and retinopathy in diabetics.
