Yeah, I've been saying for years now we've cured most modern diseases, including diabetes: follow a strict low carb variant of the Paleo diet.
No grains, no refined sugars (that means no fruit juices as well), no legumes, no garbage oils (canola, corn, soy, etc); moderate protein, high (quality) fat (meat itself, olive oil and coconut oil), low carbs (and only healthy sources from whole actual foods).
Every diabetic, no matter how severe, who has successfully adopted this diet has gone on to not only managing their diabetes, but frequently moving on to no longer needing any medicine, and sometimes even healing at least some of the damage (something modern medicine claims is impossible).
Don't believe the hype that a cure is coming soon: it already came, and it isn't something you can shove into a pill, market, and sell for high prices.
- esm 10y agoType 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease. The body kills all of its insulin-producing cells, often in childhood. No matter what sort of food you eat, you need insulin if you want your cells to use the building blocks! As an aside, the story of how insulin was discovered is super interesting. Diabetes used to be an incredibly lethal disease (part of why there were so many nobel prizes given out for insulin research)
