Nutrilite Carb Blocker http://www.nutrilite.com/
This is plant based (organic) food supplement. This is not a medicine but can definitely help you get rid of fats and unwanted carbs. Please visit the site above.
I would suggest to talk to your doctor before you get off your meds because dying is more bad for your health than taking them.
Some people with diabetes have claimed they have controlled the disease with extended use of blueberry leaf tea, so it may be worth adding to your diet.
buy an aloe vera plant and drink some of te juice everyday. Overtime it will help your diabeties. How you get better.
i just read today that cinnamon can lower your blood sugar, I went and got some in th vitamin section to try, I hope this helps.
Concentrating on low GI foods such as beans, nuts, spaghetti, oranges and apples and avoiding high GI foods such as potatoes, dates, corn flakes, table sugar, white bread and white rice would help.
