There Will Never Be A Cure For Diabetes

You may think that is a bold statement.

You are probably right about that. As someone who has had Type 2 Diabetes since 2010, I have come to the realization that a cure in my lifetime is highly unlikely.

Doctors quickly put me on Metformin, likely the most prescribed Diabetes Type 2 treatment, purported to have the least side effects and no long term damage to my body. Or so I thought…

Come to find out, a B12 defiency had developed in my system directly caused by Metformin, and my diabetes was getting worse. The doctor tested my Hemoglobin A1C is 2017 and told me that it was 11.2, which is extremely high. I knew I had to do something. Then came the 2nd prescription of meds: Januvia.

Back to Metformin. One seriously inconvenient problem — it made me stay next to the restroom, due to it’s adverse stomach-related issue — intense diarrhea. I know, TMI.

And then there’s Januvia. I somehow started breaking out in hives all over my body within days of taking it. So now two drugs that didn’t suit me well. I stopped taking it.

I had kept taking Metformin, but had to discontinue Januvia due to the harsh reactions. But I was still left with a problem — I needed to get my A1C down or the doctor was going to prescribe Insulin by injection. Ugh!

I was up to near the max dosage of Metformin at 2000MG a day and constant stomach distress. I had cut out all sugary drinks, reduced carb intake and did everything in my eating lifestyle I knew to do already — which mainly as eating better and moving more with walking and exercise.

It wasn’t enough though. As of fall 2018, my A1C was down to 8.4, which as still quite high. I was frustrated. I had spend a lot of time online looking for “cures” for diabetes naturally. And then I stumbled upon an online community of Facebook for Diabetes Type 2 sufferers.

I started reading about a substance that looked promising to me. It was called Berberine. Berberine was a natural product that had some research behind it to include small medical trials to substantiate that is helped reduce A1C in Type 2 Diabetic patients. But there was one problem — how could I guaranteed the efficacy of a natural supplement? There are hundreds of different Berberine products out on the market. Especially on Amazon. Seems like a new one popped up every other day.

Then through a lot of trial and error with different Berberines that didn’t do anything, I found something that looked promising — Dr. Whitaker’s Berberine — dosage, threes times a day before meals.

I started taking it with promising results based on my meter. Back to the doctor after 4 months, and my A1C was hovering at 8.0. That’s an improvement, but the doctor said it was not enough of a drop to keep me off medicine. I told the doctor to give me a few more months. He reluctanly agreed and insisted that this was my last chance. I had to figure out something!

Then in the Facebook Community I was part of I noticed something being mentioned a lot. And people were raving and raving about it.

People were saying:

“My sugar is back to normal range after 20 years of being a diabetic!”

These type of claims seemed outlandish. But I was desperate, and knew I should try this new product that hundreds were talking about. There were hundreds of claims and video reviews of people taking this product with drastic improvements on their A1C.

The product: Curalin by Curalife

Curalin — Save $25 on your first order!

This stuff worked! I started seeing results after only three days of using it. And I even had to cut back on dosage, as I was having numbers too low!

Curalin was a life saver. It turns out this product, which is distributed out of New Jersey in the US, is an old Ayurvedic formula developed in India, the country of my father’s heritage. Ten ingredients put together to make this product work. And it worked! A1C down to 5.2! What the heck!

This is by now means a cure. But it sure beats the alterative of injecting myself with insulin the rest of my life. And better yet, no adverse side effects.

Best of all, it REPLACED metformin and now all I need in Curalin. No more random, sudden trips to the restroom (which were sometimes at the most inconvenient times).
