If you decide to give any of these methods a try, please do not eat anything else for at least 30 minutes. As you might already know, any treatment for diabetes needs to be combined with regular exercise and a healthy diet. There is no magic pill and you have to be consistent with anything you try. Also, there are a couple of other plant based treatments that you can easily find online but these are the ones that have been used by either me or my family members and have shown wonderful results. A good research based on your overall health condition is always a good way to start. Alternatively, consult a natural health care professional.
