Q:
Except for the medicines doctors prescribe for me, I wonder is there any common alternative medicines suggested? I am in good control of my blood sugar.
A:
If you can maintain a good blood sugar levels via common diet, exercise and medications. I think you can take a try with the following 2 supplements.
Magnesium has been studied for years to improve glucose control of diabetes. A lack of magnesium can cause diabetes complications. Some people with diabetes suffer from a serious magnesium deficiency. Magnesium supplements, in this case, may improve the action of insulin.
Vanadium is helpful to boost a person’s sensitivity to insulin both in Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Besides, it also helps lower cholesterol levels and blood pressure.
In a word, if you control your blood sugar very well, you can take the above supplements as alternative medicines, of course, under doctor’s direction.
