Diabetes, dealing with sweet naturally

These days many people have adopted a sedentary lifestyle and extremely unhealthy eating habits that can lead to diabetes. This is a very common health problem whose main cause is lack of insulin.
Diabetics suffer from a variety of ailments. Type 1, or insulin-dependent-diabetes, usually starts showing symptoms in children. The most common treatment is to add hormone insulin to the bloodstream, which helps the body’s cells take up sugar.
Type 2 diabetes usually shows up in adults. In this more common type of diabetes the body’s sugar and insulin levels are out of normal range. You may be producing excessive insulin because your body has developed a resistance to it, or the insulin is not getting to the places where it’s most needed to deal with blood sugar.
