Natural Medicine Eradicates Diabetes.

I have always been thrilled to see new diabetic patients because I know from experience that it is a huge threat to people’s lives and health which can be successfully managed and even reversed by natural medicine care. Generally the problem comes in with patient motivation and compliance rather than the effectiveness of natural therapies, which in my opinion are rock solid. This whole point was recently brought home to me (and now to you) when a patient I have been treating since the early 1980’s came in to see me to discuss the results of his Heart Check America CT scan of his coronary arteries.

This patient followed me here to my Caring Medical practice in Oak Park after being my patient in Naperville for the many preceding years. I saw him initially right around the time of his initial diagnosis with adult onset diabetes. He also had back pain which I was helping him with as best I could (without Prolotherapy in those days). The patient is a very motivated and diligent person. He kept his weight under control, he watched his carbs, he ate no sugar and imbibed no caffeine, and he has taken all the supplements I had recommended continuously and exactly as prescribed for the last 21 years. Through the years his blood sugars ran only slightly above the top of the normal range of 100, and whenever I tested his longer term glucose control with the glycosylated hemoglobin test, he showed completely normal results in the range between 5 and 6. Basically he tested as though he did not have diabetes. His most recent lab work verified that excellent glucose control was continuing, and his other chemistry was all normal, including cholesterol and triglyceride readings in the ideal zone. His kidney function is perfect. He looks younger than his age of 70 years. He remains and has always been physically active and muscularly strong and robust. At one point several years ago he did begin to experience symptoms of nerve involvement in one of his lower extremities, presumably from the diabetes. The nerves are another target tissue for diabetic complications. His vitamin regimen was adjusted and he is again completely free of any nerve symptoms.

But the test result that is the most remarkable, and that prompted me to write this case up was the result of his heart scan. This test non-invasively checks for calcifications over the coronary arteries. When found, that usually correlates with plaque formation and arteriosclerosis in the vessels to the heart: in other words the presence of coronary heart disease. His test score was almost zero (it was a 3). If it was as high as 100, he would have been classified as having less plaque than 3 of 4 men his age (including non diabetics). His score (being off the charts so to speak because it was so good) basically means he has less plaque than 99.5% of all men his age! As you may know, the main way that diabetes disables and kills people is through the acceleration of the arteriosclerosis process. Essentially because he diligently followed a natural medicine program he has trounced the odds and is essentially plaque free at 70 years old! Now that is exciting!

I wanted to share this with my readers because there are many diabetics out there. Some are my patients, and others aren’t, but should be. So many lose their focus because the battle against diabetes has to sustained over the long haul. But just look at what can be accomplished with cooperation between a motivated patient and a good natural medicine doctor.

If you have diabetes or know of someone who does, think about this. You can fight the disease to a standstill. You can actually end up with better health and a longer life than the non-diabetic patient if you will get some expert guidance, and take that advice to heart. In my opinion, diabetes is both preventable and reversible.
