Once you have diabetes, it follows you around.

The current state of diabetes is that the number of people suffering from the disease is increasing, and more unfortunately, it is still a lifelongThe disease can not be completely cured. Therefore, sugar lovers are also reminded that any prescription that proclaims that diabetes can be cured by a miracle cure isIt's a scam, don't believe it.But don't be discouraged. With proper control, people with diabetes can also enjoy a good life.

For example, some patients with milder conditions, by adjusting their diet, exercising, and changing their bad habits, move toward theIn the past, it was possible to control blood sugar in a reasonable range without medication, without affecting life expectancy. But this control and treatment is lifelong andYou can't slack off, you can't quit halfway, you have to keep going.

For some patients with slightly more severe disease, diet, exercise, monitoring, and psychological adjustment can be used to control theControl blood sugar and use medication with your doctor if necessary to control no complications.

The biggest threat is complications

The onset of diabetes, while frightening, isIt can be prevented and controlled, and once you have diabetes it isControl must not be a complication, as diabetesThe really scary part is actually the complications that caused theDisability and mortality rates are high.

Complications of diabetes can be acuteThe distinction is between sexual and chronic, and acute complications are generallyIt comes on suddenly and is extremely life-threatening. ChronicComplications generally occur insidiously and if not notedIntentional monitoring, which can lead to disability or early death.

Controlling complications is something that every diabeticThe person must do it because it is more harmful than theDiabetes itself is much more serious and it is something that patientsA major factor in disability and death.

Let's start by understanding the causes of diabetes, theWhy do we get diabetes?

- Insulin is an important hormone that regulates the absorption and utilization of nutrients in the body and is the only hormone that can lower blood sugar, which if a problem occurs can raise blood sugar and produce diabetes.

There are two main causes of diabetes:

- One is a deficiency in the secretion of insulin-secreting pancreatic beta cells due to a variety of causes, commonly seen in type 1 diabetes.

- For type 2 diabetes.In addition to impaired islet function, widespread insulin resistance is another important causative factor.These people do not produce a lot of insulin per se, but they are unable to fulfill their physiological role properly, medically known as "insulin resistance". It is also believed that insulin resistance is a common causative factor in obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia, and fatty liver, all of which ultimately lead to accelerated atherosclerosis.

It can be seen thatDiabetes is a chronic metabolic disease, its cause is not easy to remove, the so-called complete cure to remove the root cause of the disease can not be done for the time being.

However, diabetes can be satisfactorily controlled and symptoms can disappear with reasonably aggressive treatment that improves the factors that influence diabetes.

However, it is wrong and dangerous to think that diabetes is cured when your blood glucose is normalized and you can easily stop taking your medication or terminate your treatment.It is likely to lead to a resurgence of diabetes symptoms.

Some studies reveal that when blood sugar reaches the diagnosis of diabetes, the pancreatic islet function has been damaged by more than half, and insulin resistance has also existed for many years. In other words, the body is already damaged at this point, and there is even the possibility of complications such as coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction, retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy, and so on, due to lack of proper treatment. It is not alarming to say that 80% of diabetics eventually die from cardiovascular disease.

So what can you do to prevent the complications of diabetes?

●Stick to a sensible diet and exercise.Interventions such as rational lifestyle and weight control can improve hyperglycemic symptoms and reduce blood glucose fluctuations.

●Take blood sugar control seriously.Sugar lovers should prevent complications by controlling blood glucose, blood lipids, blood pressure, weight and other indicators, and insisting on measuring and recording blood glucose every day.

Observe the table below to get an overview of your blood sugar control.

● Cooperate with your doctor in active treatment.In addition to assessing blood glucose control, patients should not forget to cooperate with their doctors to regularly review the complications of diabetes, such as urinary microalbumin measurement and dilated funduscopic examination, etc. Through the results of these tests, patients can realize their self-awareness and closely control the current situation. By grasping the results of these tests, patients can realize self-knowledge, closely control the current situation, and cultivate a "sense of distance" from complications.

The experts guiding this answer are Dr. Hu Zhaoheng, Chief Physician of Endocrinology Department, Peking University People's Hospital, and Dr. Chen Gang, Nephrologist, Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

At the 2017 International Diabetes Federation (IDF) Congress, the much-anticipated 'Type 2 Diabetes Remission Trial', announced its first year results: lowering body weight through dietary control can successfully remit or even reverse type 2 diabetes and improve quality of life. Moreover, the better the weight control, the higher the remission rate. A weight loss of 15 kilograms or more over 12 months resulted in a remission rate of up to 86% for type 2 diabetes.

The above results were simultaneously published online in The Lancet Medical Journal (the world's most authoritative medical journal) [1]. Once the results were published, they attracted great attention from the medical community. In fact, there has always been a debate between drug treatment and lifestyle intervention for the control of diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

The diabetes treatment pathway given in China's type 2 diabetes treatment guidelines is: the first consideration is diet and exercise, if the effect of diet and exercise control is not good, then need to take medication to control the effect of oral medication control is not good (HbA1c>7.0%), then need to consider playing insulin.

Following this treatment pathway we come to 3 conclusions: 1. Diabetes treatment is inevitable with the use of medications as the duration of the disease increases; 2. As the duration of the disease increases, the amount of medications used not only continues to increase but also the types of medications gradually increase until they cannot be controlled with insulin; 3. This treatment pathway predicts that the ultimate end of the diabetic patient will be pancreatic β-function failure until complications arise.

To summarize: when you have diabetes, the professionals are like approving officers, judging the fate of diabetics as it should be - there is no cure, and the choice of medication is inevitable.

Another study involving 3,000 diabetic patients in a large trial comparing metformin and lifestyle interventions showed that dietary changes and exercise were almost twice as effective as metformin and had a longer-lasting effect.

Another study took 10 diabetic overweight native Australians who were asked to go into a hunter-gatherer lifestyle, and after 7 weeks, this combination of diet and exercise almost completely reversed their diabetes.

But why can't such a good way be implemented? Let's use the words of Daniel Lieberman, professor of human evolution. Lieberman summarizes in The Story of the Human Body:

First, the environment we live in: industrialization has led to the mass production of the cheapest and richest foods, low in fiber and rich in simple carbohydrates (rice, refined flour products) and sugar (which are so mouth-watering that there is no way to stop them), all of which promotes obesity, especially visceral obesity, which triggers insulin resistance. Elevators, cars and even remote controls to name a few reduce physical activity levels;

Second, late diagnosis and no clear treatment options for doctors: many patients are diagnosed only to see that there are no options other than widely recognized and reasonable treatments (e.g., following treatment guidelines). Diet though will manage the patient to increase physical activity (getting their legs under them) and to avoid consuming too much sugar, starch and fat. Meanwhile, most doctors will prescribe medication to enable the patient to cope with the symptoms of type 2 diabetes;

Third, the patient is unable to adhere to: some are able to cure themselves through significant changes in diet and exercise; others are not determined enough ......

Fourth, realistic choices: physicians are committed to helping their patients lose weight, engage in more exercise, and end up with futile results (so-called low adherence), and as a result, become more pessimistic, or realistic, and tend to recommend only intermediate weight loss and exercise goals ......[3]

As a sugar friend of the circle of sugar friends, gestational diabetes in 2012, officially diagnosed in early 2016 to turn, the doctor prescribed thirst pills, but stubborn she decided to use lifestyle control of blood glucose, efforts to learn about sugar control, with the learned diet and exercise (ran a gym card) methods to control blood glucose, after a period of time of effort, blood glucose has been significantly controlled.

However, the desire for food, the lazy nature of human beings makes it impossible to control oneself, and blood sugar tends to fluctuate in a moment of desire for food or laziness. It is still sad to think that you will have to use medication sooner or later, that you will have to use insulin someday, and that complications will arise sooner or later.

Realistic and authoritative research has concluded that diabetes can be alleviated or even completely reversed, we just haven't been able to achieve it for a variety of reasons.

If you want to change, you can't do so unless you join a supportive environment and circle (such as a circle of sugar lovers or a group of sugar lovers and actively participate in it), actively learn about diabetes, and use the help of the Sugar Stopper™ if you are able to do so.

It is only then that a radical change in diet and exercise can be realized, shaping a whole new way of life. It is even possible to reach the "after the initial relief of symptoms and following the instructions for a healthy diet, it is possible to realize the control of blood glucose without drugs [4]!" The state of affairs!

In short, no one else can judge your fate if you choose to be positive and work hard! Don't give up hope, don't give up on yourself, you are your own best doctor!

Diabetes can be cured. I used to be a diabetic and I am now cured. I met a friend of mine who was studying medicine in May 2009, and he noticed that the weight loss was very bad, so he asked me why I was like that, saying that I used to be very fat. I said I don't know, now how to eat are not fat, and fatigue, sleepy, feet and shoulders for a long time bruises, teeth are also loose, and bags of teeth vision is also losing a lot. He said that in the morning to give you a fasting blood sugar check. The next morning a check fasting blood sugar is 13.8, he said you quickly hospitalized. I rooted him to say wait for me to finish the matter at hand and then go to hospitalization, and then helped to prescribe some Baisubing. I took Bisacodyl and was hospitalized in July when I finished my work. When I was admitted to the hospital, my fasting blood sugar was 13.8. After I was admitted to the hospital, I was dropped, examined, and given medication, and in the last three days of the hospitalization, I was given insulin to bring down my blood sugar, and then I was discharged from the hospital. I was hospitalized for a total of half a month this time, and I was discharged with two insulin and some Bayeris, Metformin. But after the hospital insulin I have not once injected, glucophage, metformin only ate until the end of 2009, and no longer want to take any hypoglycemic drugs, but only with the symptoms of Chinese medicine and exercise according to the principle of meridian regulation. I have been following the method I have found out to regulate, now my blood sugar control is very good, and all the complications have been cured. In addition, I recognize the dietary restrictions in the process of conditioning, and I can eat whatever I want. And I don't have to control the amount of food, I can eat as much as I want. My diabetes was cured by myself.

Diabetes is not scary, but you have to find the right way.

Diabetes is not a problem of too much sugar in our body, but a problem in our organism. Therefore, we should not use the methods of controlling, lowering and depleting sugar in treating diabetes, but how to recognize what is wrong with our organism and how to restore our organism.

Good health to my friends!

There are several types of diabetes, including type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and other causes of diabetes. The most common is type 2 diabetes, which is what we usually call diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes usually occurs in young people. Type 1 diabetes occurs because the body's pancreas islets become dysfunctional and cannot continue to secrete insulin. Insulin is the only hormone inside the body that can lower blood sugar, and many other hormones raise blood sugar, such as cortisol hormone and thyroxine, so insulin is very important for controlling blood sugar. And insulin is mainly secreted by pancreatic islets, which are distributed on the pancreas. When certain viral infections or other reasons cause damage to the pancreatic islets in the pancreatic tissue, resulting in the inability to continue making insulin, then the body's blood sugar will rise significantly, which is type 1 diabetes. Theoretically, as long as the function of the pancreatic islets can be restored, or islet transplantation, type 1 diabetes can be cured, but islet transplantation is not easy to talk about, and it is still not widely used in clinical practice. At present, the treatment of type 1 insulin, but also mainly through the supplementation of insulin, since it can not be manufactured, then supplementation of insulin it (subcutaneous injection of insulin), type 1 diabetic patients, the lifelong need for subcutaneous injection of insulin to treat, so type 1 diabetes can not be cured.

Type 2 diabetes, these patients don't have complete impairment of islet function, and even if the same amount of insulin is secreted, it may not be doing the job of applying it because the tissues of the body may not be sensitive to insulin anymore. We call this insulin resistance, and this is the pathogenesis of patients with type 2 diabetes. At present, type 2 diabetes is also incurable, early type 2 diabetes patients, through dietary control, moderate exercise to control blood glucose, and may even reverse blood glucose elevation, in other words, early diabetes, it is possible to diet, exercise to prevent diabetes from continuing to progress, or even cured, it is possible. But once type 2 diabetes diet control is ineffective, exercise treatment is ineffective, the disease has developed to the middle and late stages, organ and tissue damage, macrovascular and microvascular complications, such as diabetic foot, retinopathy, renal failure, etc., at this time, any drug has no way to cure diabetes (type 2 diabetes), can only be lowered by hypoglycemic drugs to lower sugar treatment, reduce the damage of high blood sugar on the body! At present, there are 5 major types of hypoglycemic drugs, some of which stimulate the pancreas to secrete insulin, some of which increase the sensitivity of the tissues to insulin, etc. If the treatment is not effective, then there is no way to cure diabetes (type 2 diabetes). If glucose-lowering medication is not effective, then you will have to rely on subcutaneous insulin injections later to treat type 2 diabetes.

Chinese medicine also has some efficacy in treating type 2 diabetes, and certain herbs can lower blood sugar. However, the effect of Chinese herbs in lowering blood sugar is not as effective as the current efficacy of Western medicines, and the dose is not easy to control, the slightest carelessness will be hypoglycemia, hypoglycemia may be fatal. Therefore, the current treatment of diabetes still relies on western medicine.

Diabetes mellitus has long been documented, as early as in the "Huang Di Nei Jing - Qi Disease Theory", our ancestors have been recorded "thirst syndrome", but the incidence of the time the low level of awareness of the limited degree of understanding, as evidenced by its record in the "Qi Disease Theory". However, in modern China, diabetes is an ancient disease that has extended its claws into thousands of households, jeopardizing the health of the general public. China's population of 1.4 billion, there are 140 million diabetes, and 500 million pre-glycemic - this is the current number of diabetes in China! And this number is still growing, approaching 200 million by 2030. In other words, diabetes has become a veritable disease of our habits, thinking about it, can not help but be alarmed!

Diabetes is not scary, it's the complications that are scary. The meaning of this sentence is: if you follow the doctor's instructions to take medication on time, and at the same time change the unhealthy lifestyle, active exercise, quantitative restriction of total dietary calories, keep your weight at a healthy BMI between 18.5 and 23.9, rest on time, and have a happy mood, you will be able to drink diabetes coexist peacefully, and do not have complications such as blindness, glucose foot, renal failure, organ failure, etc, and life expectancy does not have a great impact.

When some patients learn that they have diabetes, it is as if the sunny sky is suddenly covered with dark clouds, and their mood is bad to the extreme at once. The biggest reason for this is that people have the impression that diabetes is a chronic disease that can never be cured. Is this true? In addition to the "bolt from the blue" mood change, patients will also have a head full of questions: what is diabetes? Why do I have diabetes? What are the dangers of diabetes? How to cure diabetes?

Diabetes is closely related to lifestyle habits and is a so-called "disease of the rich". Why is it that I am the only one who has diabetes while others who live the same lifestyle are still healthy? To put it simply, diabetes has a genetic predisposition. There is an apt medical analogy for the development of diabetes: genetics puts the bullet in the chamber and lifestyle habits pull the trigger. Heredity is a magical thing that is difficult to shift by human will. From this perspective, diabetes is truly a lifelong disease that cannot be cured. Perhaps you are powerless to change your diabetes-prone body, but to control the onset of diabetes and live a normal life is definitely not a pipe dream. From this point of view, as long as the condition of diabetes is stabilized and coexists with you for the rest of your life, isn't it equivalent to being "cured"? The treatment of diabetes involves a variety of aspects, but all changes are the same, generally can be divided into two steps:

The first step is to improve hyperglycemia.

The second step is to maintain that improved state.

Is diabetes a genetic disease? Will future generations get it? Some people worry: If I have diabetes, will my children be like me? "A genetic predisposition to diabetes does not mean that diabetes is a hereditary disease. In other words, what children inherit from their diabetic relatives is the predisposition to diabetes, not diabetes itself. It does not mean that if your parents have diabetes, your children will get diabetes sooner or later. It is the diabetes-prone body, coupled with poor lifestyle habits, that can actually lead to diabetes. Therefore, if you are a diabetic, please pay attention to cultivate good habits in your children to nip the triggers of diabetes in the bud, so that your children can grow up healthily.

Active participation is the key to successful treatment Most illnesses are treated by a doctor who makes a diagnosis and then takes medication and injections.

Diabetes is up to you.

Diabetes is different, and while a doctor's diagnosis and treatment recommendations are important, a doctor alone can't make a difference. To cure diabetes, you have to do it yourself. Diabetes is a typical "lifestyle disease". As the name suggests, it is caused by the patient's poor lifestyle. "If the patient does not improve his or her lifestyle habits, no "miracle cure" will help. To change the former lifestyle, the doctor can only make suggestions. Whether or not to accept these suggestions, whether or not to take action, all depends on the patient's own will.

Although some clinicals now show that some diabetics can stop taking their medication by adopting a low-calorie diet of 800 calories per day under the guidance of their doctors and dietitians, this is related to individual genes and varies from person to person. Also there are not enough samples of clinical data. Diabetics still need to get in the right frame of mind and fight a lifelong hard battle.

Chinese medicine can cure diabetes, real cases. Dad more than 60 this year, last year found out that high blood pressure and high blood sugar, every day a large number of drugs to eat, but also to play insulin, big stomach, face is not good, are soy sauce purple, unsightly. This year engaged in research and development of traditional Chinese medicine students recommended my father to drink Chenpi lotus leaf fiber tea and acacia mulberry corn tea, I looked at the ingredients, are okay, have hawthorn and acacia mulberry leaves corn husk, etc., Baidu know quite suitable for the three high, and then drank a month, did not expect the effect of the bar, every day defecation smooth, the face looks good, the stomach is also much smaller, and now do not have to play insulin, blood pressure can be controlled, and then feel to adhere to use! A period of time can be cured, Chinese medicine is really great, I hope to cure more patients with three high, do not needles.

The short answer on this question is that it can't. This judgment comes from the Suzhou Institute of Biomedical Engineering and Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Among the methods currently claimed to completely cure diabetes, gastric diversion surgery is based on the principle of changing the physiologic flow of food through gastric blockage, gastrointestinal anastomosis, and enteroenteric anastomosis, thereby improving insulin resistance in the patient's body. However, gastric diversion surgery is demanding, risky, and has a low success rate, and is only indicated for T2DM patients with a history of diabetes of less than 15 years and under 70 years of age. Patients need to pass various tests, such as autoimmune diabetes antibody test and insulin endocrine function assessment, before they are eligible for the surgery. And the effectiveness of Chinese medicine still needs to be scientifically verified. Therefore, these voices that diabetes can be cured in one go lack scientific basis.

Diabetes is not yet curable, but it can be well controlled, and using current treatments, the vast majority of patients can live and work as normal. So, what are the current treatment methods? Simply put, it is mainly based on western medicine, such as oral hypoglycemic drugs, insulin injection, etc., supplemented by some traditional Chinese medicines.

For T1DM caused by insulin secretion defect, insulin treatment is the only method. There are two ways, one is to inject insulin regularly or on-demand every day, and the other is to automatically inject insulin into the patient's body according to the blood glucose concentration by hooking up an insulin pump. Most of the insulin secretion in T2DM patients is normal, but there is only an impaired biological action, therefore, at present, the main purpose is to formulate a treatment and control program based on the years of onset, blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin and previous medication, including the following five aspects: diabetes education, diet therapy, exercise therapy, medication, and blood glucose monitoring. Each component affects efficacy.

In other words, whether diabetes can be cured or not mainly depends on whether the pancreas function can be restored. Diabetes mellitus is divided into type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes mellitus is mainly caused by autoimmune and other problems that lead to the destruction of pancreatic cells and loss of pancreatic islet function, and it is impossible to recover the pancreatic function of this type of patients, and they have to rely on insulin to maintain their life for a lifetime.

The cause of type 2 diabetes is relative or absolute insulin deficiency. Some obese patients with first-onset diabetes are insensitive to insulin secreted by the pancreas due to obesity, and the body will secrete a large amount of insulin compensatory for maintaining normal blood glucose, and the amount of insulin tends to be on the high side in this period, which is called relative insufficiency. And high blood sugar will in turn inhibit pancreatic function. This part of the patient through dietary adjustments, weight loss, insulin short-term intensive treatment, direct supplementation of exogenous insulin, reduce the burden on the pancreas, while blood glucose drop can be lifted high-glucose toxicity, restoring pancreatic function, and some patients may be able to better control their blood glucose through diet and exercise at a later stage. If you want to say that pancreatic function can be restored, then this part of the patient is the most likely to be restored. The details vary from person to person, depending on the degree of obesity and the degree of pancreatic islet damage.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus will further increase the burden on the pancreatic islets, overload insulin secretion, and further damage to pancreatic islet cells if it is not better controlled in the early stages, with no dietary control and not enough exercise. Pancreatic function will decrease at a rate of 18% per year, and generally after 2 years the islet function will drop below 50%, and blood glucose will need to be controlled with medication. At this time, pancreatic function is impossible to recover, and it is necessary to rely on medication to maintain normal blood glucose for the rest of one's life.

Diabetes is a condition that requires lifelong medication, but it's not scary, as long as you keep a few things in mind:

I. Cure the mouth and snack on sweets.

Second, eat fewer and more frequent meals.

(c) Exercise appropriately according to physical condition.

Fourth, enhance resistance, nutrition to keep up.

Fifth, according to the high blood sugar bottom, adjust the number of medication yourself, in the event of complications, Chinese herbs have a certain effect. It is better than western medicine and saves money.
