Natural way to heal your diabetes

Sharing experience: I was diagnosed of having a high sugar level about 15 months ago. I was admitted for almost a week at a government hospital.

After my discharged I was placed on the insulin. I did this for almost a year and at one point in time I nearly collapsed and died because my sugar level dropped below the normal.

After that someone introduced me a natural means. The following is what i did:

1. Every morning I take lemon with warm water.


2. I always start my day with a glass of pure water and i make sure that i drink at least 8 glasses of water a day.


3. I exercise regularly. At least 3 times a day, i walk for about 40 minutes before taking my bath in the morning. I drink a lot of water before, during and after exercise.


4. I eat a lot fruits in between meals, more especially orange, papaya, mango or banana.


5. Dandelion is my "chewing gum" in the morning and evening. At least, I chew 4 leaves of dandelion in the morning and evening.


6. At times, I use moringa to make green tea and drink in the morning and evening.


7. I stopped consumption of fatty foods, red meat, white flour foods, canned foods etc. i avoided alcohol, coffee and tea.

My food was mainly made of vegetables and dry fish. I stopped eating in the night. By 5.30pm, i have taken my supper and after having my supper i will walk for 20 minutes before I rest.

I don't drink water immediately I finished eating. I will wait for at least 30 minutes before i drink water.

8.I always pray to God to heal me.

I did this for only 4 months and my sugar level is stabilized. Any time I checked its always normal.

I will take this opportunity to tell all diabetics that all is not lost. You can be healed like me if you follow my steps. I now looked fresh and more handsome than before. God be with you all in your medication and lifestyle.

What may have improved your glucose?

The most plausible contributors are regular walking, fewer refined foods, less alcohol, earlier and more structured meals, and possibly weight or calorie reduction. These changes can improve insulin sensitivity and lower glucose, especially in type 2 diabetes.

Normal home readings do not prove a cure. Ask for an A1C and review your medicines. Type 2 diabetes remission generally means an A1C below 6.5% for at least three months without glucose-lowering medicine. Monitoring must continue because high glucose can return.

Why the diabetes type matters

Hospital admission and insulin may occur with type 1 diabetes, severe type 2 diabetes, ketosis-prone diabetes, or another type. If insulin production is very low, stopping insulin can cause diabetic ketoacidosis even with excellent habits.

Bring your hospital records and ask whether testing such as A1C, kidney function, C-peptide, or diabetes autoantibodies is appropriate. Do not restart, stop, or change insulin based only on an online story.

Reviewing the individual habits

• Lemon water: It can be a low-sugar drink, but it has not been shown to cure diabetes.


• Water: Hydration is useful, but eight glasses is not a universal prescription. Needs vary with climate, exercise, kidney or heart disease, and other factors. There is no medical requirement to wait 30 minutes after eating before drinking water.


• Exercise: Walking is beneficial, but long or repeated sessions can cause hypoglycemia in people taking insulin. Check glucose as advised before, during, and after activity, carry fast-acting carbohydrate, and discuss insulin or meal adjustments with your clinician.


• Fruit: Whole fruit can fit a diabetes meal plan. Large amounts of mango, banana, papaya, or oranges between meals may raise glucose; use measured portions and pair fruit with protein or unsaturated fat when appropriate.


• Dandelion and moringa: Neither is proven to cure diabetes. Dandelion has possible medicine interactions, including with diabetes medicines and diuretics. Moringa products vary in dose and quality. Show the exact products to your doctor or pharmacist.


• Early dinner: It may help some people, but avoiding all food after 5:30 p.m. is not required for everyone and may increase overnight lows if insulin is not adjusted.


• Prayer: Faith may provide comfort and motivation, but it should support—not replace—medical monitoring and effective treatment.

Safer next steps

1. Arrange a diabetes review and bring several days of fasting, before-meal, after-meal, bedtime, exercise, and symptom readings.


2. Confirm your diabetes type, current A1C, kidney function, medicines, insulin doses, injection technique, and whether you have had other lows.


3. Use a balanced eating plan rather than relying mainly on vegetables, fish, fruit, herbs, or meal restriction.


4. Seek urgent care for repeated severe lows, vomiting, abdominal pain, deep or rapid breathing, confusion, fainting, inability to drink, or positive ketones.
