and it's not just big pharma. I have found that many doctors do the same. All they're interested in is seeing low blood sugar readings. It's time they learned how to treat the actual disease.

I agree, just look at the increase in drug prices in the last year.

Yes it is possible for some, but I am not one of them. Diabetes can be a very individual, adaptive disease. So what works for one, may not work for others, I need the support of a diabetes med. I tried it without and the results were not good.

For type 2, it is possible to do it without giving a dime to pharma. I did, and it didn't take very long.

The drug companies do not hide cures for diabetes or cancer. could you imagine if diabetes could be cured? It would lessen the impact on the health care system and make us all feel so much better.
