Can someone enlighten me if there are real cures or not for diabetes. If there are, I would really like to share the info with my parents who are dealing with diabetes.
What type of diabetes do you mean?Can someone enlighten me if there are real cures or not for diabetes. If there are, I would really like to share the info with my parents who are dealing with diabetes.
A cure, not so much... But I agree with the others, if it's type 2 you're talking about, cutting carbs could very well help get them to remission. It's a forever-after deal though, because re-introduce carbs and the T2 gets back to being full-blown. https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/the-nutritional-thingy.2330/ might help some, as can dietdoctor.com and this forum's website, diabetes.co.ukCan someone enlighten me if there are real cures or not for diabetes.

Correct diet and exercise (if possible) can put T2 diabetes in remission. There are also good medications if needed, but diet is the first and best way to address the issue. Things like tumeric, cinnamon, ayurvedic medicine don't really help. If you see herbal 'cures' online, they are probably quite useless as actual cures. Of course, something like a refreshing tea that curbs appetite might be helpful as part of a diet, but there aren't any pills or cures to make the disease go away.Can someone enlighten me if there are real cures or not for diabetes.

Indeed, and also low in protein and calcium, both of which are needed in larger amounts as we age. Depending on your parents' psychological makeup, they might just respond with more enthusiasm to the positive idea of eating MORE foods containing protein and calcium rather than to the negative one of eating LESS foods containing carbs. And of course a lower carb diet does allow for more dietary fat, which might be a compensation.A lot of the older generation were raised on porridge, toast, potatoes, fruit & all of these can be high carb
well, I have successfully controlled my type 2 diabetes by diet only for over 10 years, as have many on here. Thats good enough for me. I dont go hungry, I have a varied and rich diet, and no complicates. I call that a win.There is no cure, and there will NOT be one in our lifetime. Not in next hundred years or more, the "cure" would be replacing most of your internal organs, digestive system and some cases also limbs with cybernetic parts. It is not just your pancreas would be needed to replace with Ghost in The Shell level tech but also your whole digestive system as it is not only about your pancreas not making enough insulin but in many cases whole body becoming resistant to insulin.
Diabetes can not be cured, it only can be managed to various degrade depending on many things, how early it was diagnosed and how much damage was done, with of some 30 types it is and how committed and smart you are with treating it.

Though whilst newly onset Type1 'may' be at some point fixed/halted like this, I'm pretty sure the beta cells in my pancreas have been dead for 40+ years so unless it can bring them back to life as well .......According to my diabetes doctor, who was involved in research where they halted progression of human new-onset type 1 diabetes, it can be cured if you fix the underlying cause.
...and also stop your immune system from killing off the cells again..Though whilst newly onset Type1 'may' be at some point fixed/halted like this, I'm pretty sure the beta cells in my pancreas have been dead for 40+ years so unless it can bring them back to life as well .......
