Vitamins, Herbs, and Nutrition Let food be your medicine and let medicine be your food (Hippocrates). This is a statement I truly believe in and I also feel, that a lot of DIS-EASE happens because we are missing certain nutrients in our diet (Webmd, 2014).

Type 2 Diabetes I had type 2 diabetes and I realized that artichoke hearts will help leach sugar from your system, which will really help bring the sugar back into balance (Herb wisdom, 2014). I had type 2 diabetes and I realized that artichoke hearts will help leach sugar from your system, which will really help bring the sugar back into balance (Herb wisdom, 2014). Also I found that most diabetes medication incorporate Basil, so I began to add fresh basil to my eggs in the morning (Diabetes Health, 2014).

Juicing As I was going through the nutrition classes and had to follow my diet, I realized that my nutrients were always really good when I added in the fruits and vegetables I was juicing if I didn’t juice my diet, was always lacking. As I was going through the nutrition classes and had to follow my diet, I realized that my nutrients were always really good when I added in the fruits and vegetables I was juicing if I didn’t juice my diet, was always lacking. Juicing fruits even though they are sugar, they are monosaccharide’s the easiest form of sugar to digest. I found this helps the pancreas begin to try to break down the sugar instead of being resistant. A study I want to do even though juicing real fruit is sugar it is also anti- oxidants and enzymes that help break down the food you eat.

Juicing cont. All store bought juice is pasteurized, which kills the natural enzymes your body needs to digest your food giving it almost no nutritional value. All store bought juice is pasteurized, which kills the natural enzymes your body needs to digest your food giving it almost no nutritional value. Juicing not only tastes good it balances your diet, comes in the easiest form of sugar for the body to break down, has enzymes and antioxidants to help with digestion and absorption. Juicing not only tastes good it balances your diet, comes in the easiest form of sugar for the body to break down, has enzymes and antioxidants to help with digestion and absorption. Juice helps the digestive track relax as juicing is in a small enough form, so it can diffuse through out the system readily, rather then taking the time to digest therefore you are getting the freshest enzymatic actions Juice helps the digestive track relax as juicing is in a small enough form, so it can diffuse through out the system readily, rather then taking the time to digest therefore you are getting the freshest enzymatic actions

Herbs Some of the herbs I used to treat my diabetes naturally and I also believe herbs replace different foods you are missing in your diet. Some of the herbs I used to treat my diabetes naturally and I also believe herbs replace different foods you are missing in your diet. Milk Thistle root is very nourishing to the liver, which helps the glucagon a peptide hormone cell to stimulate glycogen to be broken down, so you have enough glucose in the system (Medicinenet, 2014). Milk Thistle root is very nourishing to the liver, which helps the glucagon a peptide hormone cell to stimulate glycogen to be broken down, so you have enough glucose in the system (Medicinenet, 2014). Astragalus root, Builds the immune system by stimulating the adrenal glands, it helps with adrenal exhaustion (naturalnews, 2014).

Supplementation I also have been taking MSM a natural source of sulfur and what I have discovered is that MSM also supports the adrenal function, when we are lacking the sulfur in the diet, which you can also get from garlic, but you would have to eat a lot of it (food matters, 2013) I also have been taking MSM a natural source of sulfur and what I have discovered is that MSM also supports the adrenal function, when we are lacking the sulfur in the diet, which you can also get from garlic, but you would have to eat a lot of it (food matters, 2013) Sulfur is one of the molecules that get depleted as we age and adding sulfur to the diet can help to feed the adrenal glands, which are important in nourishing the heart and the liver Sulfur is one of the molecules that get depleted as we age and adding sulfur to the diet can help to feed the adrenal glands, which are important in nourishing the heart and the liver

Interesting thoughts One of the things I found interesting was that I didn’t exercise at all to help lower my sugar and for me these herbs and supplements seemed to be enough to help my pancreas normalize itself.

The other thing I wanted to mention is that I have been healing myself now for eighteen years, through meditation, bodywork, and herbal remedies to help balance the different elements I was missing in my diet.

Bodywork One of the therapies I used to heal myself was working to unwind my fascia, which I found was restricting my movement due to old trauma, that I had for years.

These Fascial movements are subtle and gentle, but very effective in freeing the restrictions of old injury. This played a major role in my healing as well.
