I'm not a diabetic.but found this to be a pretty good read.even someone who's not diabetic, could benefit from this, when it comes to eating healthy and all.

Plant a Ginkgo tree . Diabetics look up its benefits on google . In the mean time you can buy up some gingko leaves on E Bay . I am a diabetic and I take a teaspoon of dried and ground Ginkgo leaves daily . My last checkup the doctors were impressed with my lab results in regard to my diabetic check up . The Ginkgo tree that I planted last winter has grown about 15 inches already this year . Not only is the Ginkgo tree medicinal it is also ornamental . Bring up a fall picture of it .

Type 2 . I was on insulin until I started taking Ginkgo leaves . My a 1 c went so low , that even without doctor advice I stopped all insulin . Many months later when I eventually went to an annual checkup they were quite taken back by the readings . Actually before Ginkgo leaves they had me on pills and insulin . I still take the pills , but honestly if I could buckle down and stop sneaking in an occasional candy or ice-cream I could stop taking pills also .

Ginkgo biloba may aid in treating Type 2 Diabetes - Neuroscience News--- Here is some medical information on taking Ginkgo leaves , though this article mostly talks about taking extract from the leaves , I cut to the basics and actually consume the leaves .

The quack I go to keeps telling me that I have diabetes. A few years ago I was diagnosed with glaucoma and needed glasses. My triglycerides were over 1800. Now I have 20/20 vision, no glaucoma and my triglycerides are almost "normal". I think many things can be treated with a proper diet, exercise and the right herbs.
Doctors will always find something wrong so they can push more pills.

Spot on Arctic! And this information cannot be said enough! Pills always CAUSE other problems. The diet is the way to HEAL your body!!!
Arctic, I had the same thing happen here!
