If you have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes  your body is either not producing enough insulin or your cells have become unable to use insulin efficiently.

It is now generally recognised that many disease conditions are preceded by chronic inflammation and in the case of Type 2 diabetes this too has been confirmed in recent research.

The key to reversing diabetes lies in reducing this inflammation by taking the following three steps. You can do this right now if you want to regain a healthy life and avoid spending the rest of your life on drugs.

The Three Steps to Preventing and Reversing Diabetes

•    Lose excess weight
•    Base your diet on alkaline, anti-inflammatory foods and  foods that will support your pancreas and liver,
•    Take  daily moderate exercise

Fat Cells (especially abdominal fat) are notorious for producing inflammatory molecules called cytokines. These are the killer chemicals that create havoc wherever they circulate in the body, irritating cell membranes, inflaming tissue and undermining your natural healing processes.  Fat also encases your organs and infiltrates the liver making it more difficult for your body to respond to insulin.  Even 10% loss in body weight can result is a significant reduction in blood sugar. Go for it! Loose that weight and see how your body will love it!


Anti-Inflammatory Foods such as vegetables, fruits, salad greens, seeds such as milled flaxseed, brown rice and lentils with some oily fish, sea vegetables and a handful of nuts. These foods are all low GI and are what your body is craving. Try and eat as many raw fruits and vegetables including sprouted foods as possible as these enzyme rich foods will take the pressure off your pancreas and allow it to heal.  Include a huge salad everyday for lunch and eat whole fruits or vegetables as snacks. Keep away from all processed and sugary foods, fried foods and wheat.

Moderate Exercise even more so than diet alone has been shown to reduce inflammation and increase the sensitivity of cells to insulin. When you exercise everything in your body improves; blood pressure, bone density, lung function etc and the effect lasts for many hours after you stop.
