Diabetes:  We looked at the causes; now let’s look at how to resolve it

By Dr. Holly

A while back we were discussing all the different causes of diabetes…but what about all the ways to resolve diabetes?
As noted previously, Metformin, the most commonly prescribed prescription utilized for diabetes in no way eliminates diabetes.  All it can do is help regulate the blood glucose levels while the underlying issues continue to cause various domino effects throughout the body including:

• Issues with your eyesight – retinopathy and blindness
• Issues with your weight – obesity
• Issues with neuropathy – amputation
• Issues with your cardio/heart system – heart attack, erectile dysfunction
• Issues with your kidneys – kidney failure
• Issues with your neural/brain – stroke

So, what can we do to correct the diabetes?
