Here is what your father has to do for life. You can reject this info or live a great life. If he is Type 2 diabetic then here it is :
There are 4 key steps to controlling glucose levels :

1) EXERCISE- Walking is fine but Nordic Walking is Great. Exercise also lowers Glucose levels , lowers Cholesterol and lowers Blood Pressure. Google it.Exercise is Non-Negotiable !!!Thats why it is Number 1 on the list.
2) Knowledge- http://www.phlaunt.com/diabetes/index.ph… This is a great site for info
3) Meds. Metformin to start. Never , ever take Actos or Avandia. They may kill you. Bone fractures, heart problems and what diabetics really don't need is that they change Bone Stem Cells to Fat Cells.Also never ever take Onglyza or Januvia . They can can inhibit the bodys immune system and let cancer spread.
4) Diet- A low carb diet is in order. I can't count carbs so I use Mendosa's Glycemic Index Diet. Great for the whole family. http://www.mendosa.com/gilists.htm

You must remember this is for life. No breaks , no holidays this is for keeps!!!But I guarantee that this will work!

Take care

Sorry. But my grandparents have diabetes, and to be honest, you can't get rid of it, no matter what type it is. He just needs to each sugar on occasion and stick to a controlled diet of healthy, low sugar, foods. Whatever you do, avoid high caloried foods, potatoes, starches, and extremely sugary things. Also, remember that having people in your family puts you at risk of getting diabetes, so make sure that you eat healthily and excersize regularly.



It depends on what type of diabetes your dad has.If he has type one, he needs to keep using his medication.If he's type two there is a chance on getting rid of that by not only eating any food that is low in carbs per serving, but also exercising 3 times a week to mange blood sugars.



there is no cure for diabetes BUT there is a study in the US that is claiming to have cured diabetes with a raw food diet... give it a try if you like and see how you go :) it could be legitimate but is most likely another fad...



He'll never get rid of it, only control it. Plenty books available on diets for diabetics - but stay away from the sugars and fats. Eat 6 small meals a day, and do moderate exercises.
Peace.
