Hi
I posted a thread earlier in the year but cant seem to find it now so I'll do a new one.
I was diagnosed as Type 2 Diabetic last year and due to all medications making me ill I was put in insulin. My HbA1C rose from 56 to 71.
After doing a lot of research and discovering reports from Spain, Italy and Israel that there is a link between lack of vitamin D3 and type 2 diabetes I started taking vitamin D3 back in May.
The doctor was adamant I could not and would not come off insulin and said that I should not take too high a level of D3. So I stopped taking the insulin, boosted my intake of D3 to 30,000 ius a day and took vitamin K2. I also went on a diet of eat what you like as long as the daily total does not exceed 1200 calories. And do it right, that is a lot of food. Carbs were cut right back.
Within a month / six weeks my HbA1C had fallen back to 56 and my daily check on blood sugars levels was way under ten.
Four months on my latest HbA1C is 41! I am no longer classed as diabetic. The retina damaged detected last year has healed itself and I am feeling better than I ever have in a long time. My weight has come done by 19 kilos / 40 lbs and my waist is down from 42 to 32!
So, take responsibility for what you eat. Take advise from your doctor always but take the D3 and K2 if not at the levels I was on (I am back to 10,000 ius a day now) and see if you too can cut your blood sugar levels back to normal.
