Reversing Diabetes Is Possible

While science is still trying to reverse diabetes nature has already found a way for many people. The reason for this is very simple. The vast majority of diabetes is directly related to lifestyle. Poor eating habits combined with a lack of exercise provides the right combination to become diabetic.

University of Florida researchers have been successful at reversing diabetes in mice using stem cells. The cells were taken from the pancreas in the early stages of development. The cells were then injected in the mice. A few days later the cells began to act like normal non-diabetic cells. The study lasted for 3 months and during the time of the study the immune system did not attack the stem cells. Unfortunately they could not determine how long it would last.

One basic point to consider is the fact that the 85-90% of diabetes cases are directly related to poor eating and exercise habits. If someone can reverse diabetes using science one simple question to ask is, how long will it last if the diabetic does not change his or her lifestyle habits?

One more question for science is how do you find a cure for many different ethnic groups that have diabetes? Researchers would then have to study each ethnic group to be sure this will work for all of them. While the study increases the hope for science to find a cure for diabetes there is still much more work to be done in the eyes of science. If they can reverse diabetes in mice then humans may not be that far off. The next step for the researchers is to study primates.

Roughly 750,000 people suffer from type 1 diabetes in the US alone. It represents 5 to 10% of all diabetes cases. The effects of having diabetes can lead to heart attacks, strokes and blindness.

Dr. Robert Young in his book, “The PH Miracle for Diabetes” provides a diet program to assist one in reversing diabetes. When you understand the foods you are eating and drinks you are drinking that are creating diabetes you can understand how to change it. By following his diet guidelines there are many cases of people who have done just that, reversed diabetes.
