Type II Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome Naturopathic Treatment of Diabetes in Newtown, CT

type 2 diabetesDr. Brody’s Natural Approach to Type 2 Diabetes

It is amazing to see more and more people who are just fed up with their type 2 diabetic medications.  Most doctors just place their patients on drugs and don’t work on correcting the underlying pathology.  Most of the time you will know if you are on type 2 diabetic path when you have the following symptoms: weight gain, cholesterol control issues, unhealthy eating habits, excessive thirst, excessive urination, numbness in the legs or hands, vision problems, high blood pressure, and much more. The hard part is finding a way off this hazardous trail onto a path of healing instead of disease.

Many patients who come to me are either already diagnosed with diabetes or pre-diabetes and they want to avoid the long-term consequences of this horrible disease. The disease process simply has to do with how you handle sugar.  Your body uses sugar for a majority of functions, with the most important being fuel for your cells.

If you are constantly eating the wrong foods, you are increasing the amount of sugar in your blood stream.  If this sugar cannot get into your cells (due to a depletion of hormones) you can’t use it for fuel.  So the sugar stays in your bloodstream and starts to rot your arteries and veins. This is one process you do not want to be happening in your body.  If you or a loved one is suffering from type 2 diabetes, there is help out there.  There any many different supplements, herbs and diets that can help. Within my protocol, I only use the most effective treatments. Most of my patients and their doctors are very happy that their blood sugar levels have started to level out in only a few months.

Natural agents to help control blood sugar

(Speak to your doctor before starting any new treatment.)

  1. Chromium–This mineral has been shown to improve insulin resistant, thus allowing your body to utilize blood sugar.
  2. Alpha-Lipoic Acid–This chemical found in many different foods is even a prescript drug in some countries due to its ability to reduce blood glucose levels.
  3. Magnolia–The bark of this tree, has been shown to help reduce blood sugar spikes and drops via modulating a genetic target called PPAR.
