Add to the above, bitter melon. But here is an article that explains it all and how to cure type II in short order by taking chromium and vanadium (trace minerals, defiencies of which are at the root cause, then exacerbated by diets high in carbohydrates) and a diet of 85% fat. Extremely compelling article. http://www.mercola.com/2001/jul/14/insulin.htm

"R"-Lipoic Acid. Alpha Lipoic is helpful, but barely- it's more use as an antioxident. I checked with the guy who's doing the clinical trials on it here in the U. S. (It's been used for years in Europe) He was starting with 300 mg. But I found that too much will make my blood sugar yo-yo and I'm better off with just 100mg. after my main meal. Cinnamon with other meals. You have to keep close track of your blood sugar until you know. Cinnamon bark.... and there's lots of ways to get that- just add cinnamon to your foods more. Even Bay Leaves, when added to food will help lower blood sugar. Be careful with herbs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course, regular exercise. Proteins, fiber, and veges. are fine- once you got it under control you can pretty much what you want with them.. but then remember proper weight management as much as possible-. That's where I fall down. Small meals, more often. That's a hard one, too, if you're like me. If food could be treated by an over-eater like alcohol can by an alcoholic... I could stop eating and never start- I'd be ok. Stevia is the best sweetner- as it works to lower blood sugar. It's an herb, but safe.

You should work with your health provider. There are natural products available to help control. Check these out. But still work with your doctor - diabetes is a serious illness. http://www.freshstartworld.com/
