Diabetes is a serious health condition that affects the body’s ability to produce or use insulin.
There are two types of diabetes:
1. Type I diabetes – the body itself destroys the cells that produce insulin.
2. Type II diabetes – the body does not produce enough insulin and the cells are unable to use insulin properly.
Type II diabetes is more common than Type I. In the UK, most of the adult people have type II diabetes.
Another type of diabetes is gestational diabetes which develops during pregnancy. Some pregnant women have higher blood glucose and their body does not produce enough insulin to deal with it.
A man was diagnosed with type II diabetes along with high blood pressure. The medications he was prescribed were not of any help but he has decided to treat his illness in a natural way.
He started a strict raw diet which included only fruits and vegetables and it proved a success.
The insufficient amount of insulin in the body causes a situation that can’t be controlled, followed by these symptoms: frequent urination, infections, blurred vision, and extreme thirst.
