Default Alternative Medical Therapies

Hey guys here are some Alternative Medical Therapies I found for Diabetes

Acupuncture : Acupuncture is a procedure in which a practitioner inserts needles into designated points on the skin. Some scientists believe that acupuncture triggers the release of the body's natural painkillers. Acupuncture has been shown to offer relief from chronic pain. Acupuncture is sometimes used by people with neuropathy, the painful nerve damage of diabetes.

Chromium : The benefit of added chromium for diabetes has been studied and debated for several years. Several studies report that chromium supplementation may improve diabetes control. Chromium is needed to make glucose tolerance factor, which helps insulin improve its action. Because of insufficient information on the use of chromium to treat diabetes, no recommendations for supplementation yet exist.

Smile the basic treatment ...fruits and vegetables!!!

Nutrition is everything, everything we eat has a positive or negative reaction on our body.The reason that I started on Juice Plus was because my family wasn't eating enough fruits and vegetables and I know according to US Dept of Agriculture, US Cancer Association recommend eat 7 to 13 servings of fruits and vegetables daily but to us wasn't possible and when I learned about the connection between food and disease just made sense to me because my son that almost didn't eat vegetables at that time was sick all the time. After we started on JP all my family was just so much healthier and I noticed that my son wasn't getting sick as much and when does he gets over much quicker. I started read the published studies on Juice Plus and got passionate about it. It make sense to me because when God made us He also provided us everything we need and fruits and vegetables is what we got from Him, why then get drugs in our body?!. What I learned about JP also is that from the combination of the fruits and vegetables working together (Synergy) we get thousands of nutrients and vitamins from them and that is what makes a difference, unlike getting the isolated vitamins or supplements. Well I love Juice Plus and could write pages but you can get more education about this clicking on the link below and watch the video called Four Doctors, its amazing. Good Luck and happy and healthier life!
