If you or someone in your family has just found out that you have diabetes there are a lot of known treatments for diabetes and now there are some new discoveries. A Japanese study shows that taking a garlic tablet daily could actually help reduce blood sugar levels (active ingredient vanadium).

New study shows that black tea might fight diabetes. China states that the polysaccharide levels of green tea, oolong and black tea could be used to treat diabetes thinking that it could help stop the absorption of glucose. Study also indicated that the black tea had the highest fighting power against the free radicals that cause cancer and rheumatoid arthritis as well.

Vitamins such as chromium and magnesium can help fight diabetes by improving glucose control.

There are some foods which are indicated to help people with type 2 diabetes: brewer’s yeast, buckwheat, broccoli, okra, peas, fenugreek seeds and sage. These are beneficial in controlling blood glucose levels.

These alternative treatments can help but they should not be used to replace the medications, exercise and diabetic meal plan which are the known effective treatments for diabetes type 2.

If you find an alternative treatment that you would like to try then please discuss with your physician.

Diabetic meal plan will consist of carbohydrate counting since this is the food group that is your energy source but also one that increases your blood sugar. Add those vegetables into your diet such as broccoli, peas and okra.

Consider consulting a professional for your diabetic meal plan, then you are free to pursue other treatments and spend time on your daily exercise. Exercise will lower your blood pressure, reduce your weight and strengthen your heart.
