Chromium GTF For insulin resistance
BJ_BOBBI_JO in Indiana USA -
When I first became an insulin resistant diabetic I started reading up on diabetes as much as I could. I read in places how an insulin resistant diabetic is supposably lacking in the mineral called chromium which contributes to the person being an insulin resistant diabetic.
I started low carbing which helped. I then began lifting weights which also helped. Then I started taking chromium GTF along with the weight lifting and low carbing and it really done the trick. I presume the reason why it helped my blood sugars is because it is said to decrease ones insulin resistance. I read and found that there are several forms of chromium but the chromium GFT is the best for diabetics. GTF means glucose tolerance factor. It also seems to help my carb cravings decrease.
From the way I understand it this wont work as well for a type 1 diabetic but can work real well for type 2 diabetics who have not lost their ability to still make some insulin in their pancreas.

MJ in Central California -Exercise and eat a low carb diet. Exchange zeal for eating to a zeal for exercise and your apathy toward exercise for an apathy toward eating high carb foods.

Sage Tea for Diabetes
Annette Irizarry in Pembroke Pines, Florida -While on a vacation in Vermont, we bought a book titled Naural Remedies That Work. One writer recommended drinking sage tea every day to lower blood sugar. My husband has been doing this for 4 years now and has been able to maintain his sugar between 90-100 with less than half the original oral medication. Either steeping the leaf or tea bags work equally as well

Cinnamon/ chromium
Michael H. in Nashville, TN -Take chromium supplements and sprinkle some cinnamon on your toast or in your juice. Both of these help your body use sugar more efficiently. If you are taking insulin, check with your Doctor first before taking any additional supplements.

Diabetes/blood sugar control
veronica in michigan -I read an article on R-Lipoic Acid. And how it helps to reduce the blood sugars. It allows the cells to utilize the energy. I tried it and it lowered my blood sugars by atleast 30. There are even some days that I eat sweets and my blood sugar remains within normal limits.

Carol in CT -I don't have diabetes, but here is something I read in an old home remedy book, hope this helps.
Jerusalem artichokes are alkaline in reaction, rich in potassium and offer large amounts of calcium, sodium, phosperous, sulfer, iron, chlorine, and magnesium. The protein matter amounts to 2%, a wholesome gum 9.1%, levulose sugar 4.2% and inulin 1.1 %
The sugar can be eaten by diabetics; and the starch is represented by inulin, which triples in quantity by Fall. Not only have the tubers been used as a specific remedy in pancreatitis and diabetes, but extracts of the plant have been found effective against staphylococcus and Escherichia bacteria.
