The good news about type 2 diabetes is it is reversible, especially when found in the early stages. Type 2 diabetes usually starts when your body’s cells are unable to use insulin properly and maybe occurs as a result of one of the following:

• a tendency towards developing type 2 diabetes as passed down from your family
• carrying excess weight, especially around your waistline
• immune system disorders for example lupus
• being physically inactive
• being under stress for long periods
• medications such as steroids
• having diabetes whilst pregnant, gestational diabetes

Your body then responds by making extra chemicals that prevents your body from using insulin. There is insulin… it just does not work as it is meant to… this is called insulin resistance.

Over time, usually years, your pancreas may start to give up. It will make less and less insulin… just not enough to get the job done.

Type 2 diabetes develops gradually, and actually with the help of an annual test to check your blood sugar level, it would be easily detectable. Then the symptoms that may have developed during that past year could be reversed without medication… simply by following a healthy lifestyle which would include:

• choosing to eat and drink healthily and enjoyably without unpleasant side-effects afterwards
• becoming the person you used to be by losing excess weight
• getting back to the fresh air exercises that you used to enjoy as a younger person… walking more and driving less

The good news about reversing signs and symptoms of type 2 diabetes is:

1. Reversing type 2 diabetes is a pleasure: there is no pain involved in adopting a healthy lifestyle. In fact all you are actually doing is getting back to the healthy basics that you body was built to enjoy. This means you will:

• sleep better
• wake up feeling more energetic and raring to go, and
• perform much better during the day

You will also be far less likely to suffer unpleasant hangovers, experience painful body cramps, or just be plain grumpy all day. That’s because your new healthy lifestyle is not only good for your body, it is also food for your mind and your soul.

2. You will be saving money as well: imagine what you will be able to do with the money you save by avoiding unhealthy convenience foods, headache tablets and prescription medications.

3. You will get extra benefits from a healthy lifestyle: did you notice that the things you need to do are the same as those recommended for other health problems such as high cholesterol levels. That’s proof positive that the recommendations are nothing more than a compelling suggestion to return to a healthy, beneficial lifestyle where your weight will be reduced along with your blood sugar levels.
