Endocrinologist with 24 years of experience - about revolutionary principles that help patients in stable remission, which can be considered a cure for diabetes
Can type 2 diabetes be cured? Such a statement of the question may seem naive. We all know that diabetes is incurable.
But just a year ago, endocrinologists developed criteria, based on which one can state a stable remission, which can be considered curing the disease.
These miracles happen to those who use modern effective tools and knowledge, and also have a strong will and desire to be healed.
There are only a few such patients, and, fortunately, I was lucky to observe such people.
Eight steps to beat diabetes
So, what needs to be done in order to get a remission first, that is, to achieve a normal blood glucose level and normal sensitivity of body tissues to insulin during its normal synthesis by pancreatic cells:
1. Find an endocrinologist with whom mutual understanding and mutual trust will arise, since the path will take time and you need to interact effectively and closely;
2. Agree with yourself and with your loved ones that change your lifestyle once and for all. It is necessary to part with bad eating habits that have led to diabetes. And everyone in the family must start eating right, otherwise the person will not stand it and will break.
3.Get exercise with the whole family. For the same reasons: not to leave a single chance to break loose. Plus, we must remember that diabetes is in many ways a genetically predetermined disease, so it is important to push back as much as possible the age of relatives at which it begins. This is possible with the help of the HSE.
4. Set the right sleep pattern and strictly adhere to it again with the whole family. It is impossible to go to bed at 10 pm when the wife is watching TV shows until 2 am.
5. Necessarily follow the full range of recommendations. It often happened to me: you will prescribe drugs with control after 2 months to a person. And he comes in 4, but he took only 2 drugs, as it was said. Such "medicinal" holidays cannot be arranged.
6. The most important thing to start remission of diabetes is lose excess fat. In one of the studies many years ago, I read that reducing the amount of adipose tissue by only 5 kg reduces the risk of developing diabetes by 50%. And even if it has already developed, then weight loss due to adipose tissue will definitely reduce the severity of diabetes complications. And believe me, there are many of them, and one is worse than the other. Including blindness and loss of limbs.
7. Today's arsenal of medications used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes is large. There are such effective preparations that it is a pleasure to work.
But there is also the other side of the coin: often patients buy their own drugswithout a doctor's prescription. You can't do that. The instructions are far from exhaustive information, there are many nuances that the doctor comprehends in practice. So let everyone do their part.
Upon reaching a stable and long-term normalization of the level of glucose and insulin in the blood, the drugs will gradually be canceled up to the point that only dietary supplements can be left while maintaining a normal level of blood counts.
8. In the treatment of diabetes actively used dietary supplements (some of them in the form of medicines), for example, taurine, chromium and other substances that have a very positive effect on the body in the development of carbohydrate disorders.
I repeat, today diabetes can definitely be controlled, you, your family and a competent doctor are your allies.
