Q: Any new drug or cure for diabetes?
Looking for cure or help info?

A: The only cure to date for type 1 OR type 2 , is a pancreas transplant. They are coming up with new drugs to help control diabetes all the time. Please don’t get sucked into the fables that there are herbal cures out there for diabetes, because it is NOT true. I almost died trying things like this. Claims of cures are just to sell the herbs and have absolutely no clinical proof of curing or helping diabetes.

Q: Does any one know the place in europe wher they cure diabetes with a new stem cell???
I heard their was a place in europe wher they cure diabetes with a new stem cell is that even true

A: NO I wish there was Id be first in line

Q: do u know about the new way for cure of diabetes type 1 for children has 7 years old?
i looking for definite cure, not about control of diabeted type 1. please informe me for any vaccine or drug for definite cure. thankf

A: At this time, there IS NO DEFINITE CURE.

But on the horizon are some new possibilities that are STILL in the animal testing stages.

The first uses adult stem cells to regrow the Islet Cells in your pancreas that produce insulin. This has worked IN MICE — but is a LONG way from being given to humans. IF this proves effective in HUMANS, then a commercial treatment is still 15-20 years away.

A Pancreas Transplant is a possibility, but is very very dangerous. Pancreas Transplant is the least effective of all the transplanted organ. Heart transplants easily live 10-15 years longer. Kidney transplants live 15-30 years longer.

But pancreas transplant live only 5-7 years longer. In fact, more than 50% of the patients are dead within 5 years. Therefore, most doctors will NOT do a pancreas transplant unless the patient is going to die anyway. In this case, even a couple of years longer is better than nothing.

But Type 1 Diabetes in a 7-year-old is EASILY treatable with insulin, diet, and exercise. NO doctor would recommend a transplant to an otherwise healthy patient!

There are some other possibilities, but they are are even more unsure, and have MANY years of experiment to go through before humans can be involved.

In the mean time, the 7-year-old needs to learn what CAN and CANNOT be eaten, and that the medication are KEEPING HER ALIVE, and without them shot she WILL die.

Q: any new medical interventions for curing diabetes?
I have had type 1 diabetes for my whole life. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any new medical interventions that would help in the management, or totally getting rid of diabetes.
Thank you :)

A: I’ve had diabetes since I was three. So, I know exactly what you’re going through :)

So far, they don’t have an official cure for type one diabetes except for implanting a new pancreas. This process is fairly new and they’re still in the trial and error phase of it.

Depending on your age, diet and exercise are your best bet for getting your blood sugar numbers under control.

Hopefully, with the law that passed to promote stem cell research, they will be able to find a cure. Wouldn’t that be amazing? :)

Hope this helps you out! :)

Q: Cure for Diabetes!?
is it true that they found a new cure for diabetes (other than Herbal thing)? something that makes sense?
specially for type-1 diabetes?!

A: No, there is no cure for now except a pancreas transplant. (and the herbal thing is not for real) If there was a cure, your doctor would tell you right away.
There have been many, many claims just like the above answer and they are all not true. We discuss this at almost every diabetic ed class that I go to because there is always some new claim. (I go every month) Most of them are just money making schemes.

Q: Could this be possible ?Chili extract a possible Cure for diabetes?
Chili Extract A Possible Cure for Diabetes
Scientists have discovered that after injecting capsaicin, a chili extract, insulin levels increased and restored blood glucose levels to normal virtually overnight. This discovery of the role for sensory nerves in diabetes opens door to new treatment strategies.

A: Again, there is NO CURE for type 2 diabetes with possibly one exception – testosterone replacement therapy.

Anything else is just ‘another’ treatment.

The only cure for a type 1 and 1.5 is a pancreas transplant (right now).

To be cured of any diabetes, such a cure must be able to do all of the following:

1) Be able to eat absolutely anything you want
2) Eat whenever your want.
3) Eat as much as you want
4) Have blood sugars between 70 & 100 at all times, even after eating.
5) Require no ongoing diabetic treatments of ANY kind after the initial treatment.
6) Not require any form of exercise or any ‘regular’ consumption of anything at any time.

All of this with total impunity related to blood sugar levels.

The greatest hope for a cure lies with stem cell research.

No oral food can cure a ‘dead’ pancreas, like in type 1 diabetics.

Q: Why do doctors think that finding a cure for type 2 diabetes is more important then finding a cure for type 1?
i had a doctor come in to my class today and non stop talk about how they were in pursuit of finding a cure for type 2 diabetes. Im of course glad to hear that, but what about type one. Ive had type one for about 10 years now and i havent heard about any new treatments other then stem cells, and the pump. why? type one is way worse then type 2

A: Type 2 affects a greater % of the population and is preventable. By educating people about t2 diabetes it is hoped that the rate of diagnoses and diabetes related complications will eventually go down. Type 1 on the other hand is unpreventable and affects a small amount of the population.

On the plus side, many of the advancements for t1 have occurred because of the rise in t2. Improvements in glucose monitors, insulin etc are more profitable for companies to invest in if there is a large part of the population who needs them.

I have heard a new drug is already sold in France, but yet not aproved by FDA in the US, to cure high cholesterol, diabetes, and other symptoms related to obese people. I would like to know which lab is producing it and its commercial brand name.

A: yes, it’s called “diet and exercize”. Get your’s today!

Q: Diabetes, cure/treatment, what alternatives are there?
A dear friend of mine, 57y/o female, has done everything she knows to stop the progression. I am sending a note in a bottle out to you, the loving individuals who respond to these questions, for some new ideas.

Divine blessings upon you!

A: Unfortunately, there is no cure for either type of diabetes. If she is type 2 a healthy diet and exercise can help to a point. She will need to watch her diet, get daily exercise, and visit her doctor every 3 months. Tell her to take her meds exactly as the doctor has instructed her, and get a dietitian or nutritionist. My nutritionist told me about the South Beach diet. It teaches about good and bad carbs, gives lists of food to eat and not to eat. It is not an exchange diet and does not count carbs or calories. It’s very easy and healthy. If she were to decide to use this diet, tell her to skip phase one and start with phase two. Stay away from white bread, and anything thing made with white flour, including pastas. No white potatoes and no white rice. If she is type 2, she will have to watch her diet closely. I have tried so many alternative methods of treating diabetes, and most of them did my body harm. I ended up almost dying and in the hospital from herbal treatment from a very reputable Chinese doctor. Just do what the doctor says. Good luck to the both of you.

Q: My new club at school needs ideas of different fund-raisers?
We already have ideas like:

Diabetes Cure
Red Cross
Cancer Cure
Breast Cancer Foundation
and things like that.

Do you have any ideas for charities and fund-raisers teeangers would like to participate in? We’re starting a new club and need more kids to join, so we want to pick charities people would like to help with.

Thanks!

A: i’d try peer mediation. but r u trying to build a fundraiser or a club. great ideas for fundrasing are car washing, donuts, or have a dance or have people bid on guys and girls to raise money. and if your school has a certain dress code policy– get together with the administration and have students pay a fee and they can where that restricted item to school. and my last idea is have competition between the freshmen. sophs,juniors, and seniors. make spirit links and sale for 1.00. all else fails sale candy bars. they always gp over great. buena suerte!

Q: Pancreas transplant… cure for diabetes… what?
There was just a story on my CBS morning news about a type 1 diabetic woman who had been on the kidney transplant list and got a new kidney and the surgery was done by the Da Vinci robot. At the end of the story they said that she’s on the transplant list, this time for a new pancreas that will hopefully cure her diabetes. I knew there was talk and trials for pancreas and for pancreatic cell transplants, but I didn’t know that they were actually doing any of them out side of trials. My doctor hasn’t said boo about this too me. Has anyone herd of this being done? I’ve been a type 1 for 25 years, I’d love to get on the transplant list if I can.

A: My life is much, much, much better following my kidney and pancreas transplant. I was type 1 diabetic for 30 plus years, and had kidney failure as a complication of that. So, almost 4 years ago now, I had both transplants at the same time, at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, NC, in the US.

My results have been perfect. I have not been on insulin since the transplant. I love the fact that since I’m no longer diabetic, I should not be able to get new complications. I love the freedom. I love eating what I want and not trying to figure out carbs to insulin ratio. And I never get tired of seeing that my blood sugar is 95 fasting and then 125 after I eat – way too cool (although I don’t check my blood sugar anymore, lalala).

And I really love being off dialysis.

I have had no problems with any of my anti-rejection drugs. I have had no side effects. Frankly even if I had some, it would be worth getting away from the deadly complications of diabetes. I do not get infections any easier than anyone else. You do have to have common sense about being around sick people, but I’ve had no problems.

Of course results are different. Some people are like me and basically cured. Some people still have to take some insulin; some who were type I before only have to take pills afterward. Sometimes unfortunately it does not work. And sometimes the organ is rejected.

If you do not have complications, you probably don’t need a transplant. Plus, while there are plenty of organs, there are not nearly enough organ DONORS – unfortunately people don’t donate or don’t allow their family members to donate, which I find sad. Thank god for my donor’s mom. I received my two organs because of her willingness to allow donation.

It would be great to see better, more positive comments about organ transplants. Please spread the word that yes, the pancreas can be transplanted, and the quality of life can be so much better.

Q: Can stem cells really cure Diabetes?
Is there some process that is theoretically recreates a new pancreas using stem cells?

A: Stem cells from cord blood already cures many diseases, and they are close to curing diabetes.

They are working hard to find a cure using cord blood, but that is not making it into the news like it should. Cord blood stem cells are saving lives and embryonic ones are not. There is no need to research embyonic stem cells, as we have so far to go and so many diseases being cured right now with cord blood. But the money is not in the cord blood, therefore the drug companies will continue to push with their lobbyists for embryonic money.

Q: alternative natural cure for jaundice and diabetes?
I am new here my husband told me to try asking my question here and I hope I can get some help.

My dad has both jaundise and diabetes. his health seems to be getting worse. Im not sure that his medications are helping him. He takes metforman and adriamycin. He seems to be getting worse.

i just want to know if anyone has heard of any alternitive natural cures and therapies that might work for his conditions. I am open to any ideas. Thankyou

A: Why is he on Adriamycin? Is there some information you are not giving? Adriamycin is a chemotherapy agent.
Metformin is an anti-diabetic drug with a possible side effect of LIVER DAMAGE and jaundice. (see reference given) Sounds like he needs to be on something different…now. Even if he has to take insulin shots for a while , I would think that would be better than those potentially life-threatening side effects. THEN you can pursue natural options once you stop the poisoning. If he gets on something with less damaging side-effects, then he can pursue other options to stop diabetes (depending on cause). Exercise included. Since you don’t mention that he takes insulin shots, that probably means his pancreas is still functional…so, dietary and lifestyle modifications will help a great deal.

eg: If your thumb hurt, you’d want to stop hitting it with a hammer before wrapping it and applying ice.

Q: What is the status of Diabetes research for 2008?
Though-out the past couple of years, new cases of diabetes has risen and I was wondering if anyone knew… if they are still trying to find a cure for it. This is very important to me and thank you for your help…

A: Now that Obama is pushing more scientific research, including stem cell, we should get a push in research. Last year it was revealed that diabetics who had gastric bypass surgery (not just lap band) were about 87% likely to lose their diabetes. Based on that, my father had it January 15. He immediately went off the pills, and though he’s still been taking insulin, just last night he forgot, and his blood sugar this morning was only 113! Before, he was often at 200, even with the medication (he’s also lost almost 60 pounds!).
