Good chance removal of sugar from diet cures Type 2 diabetes.
I’m talking about daily sugar intake in the dozens of grams, blood sugar hovering in the 75-125 range.
I just stopped taking Metformin a week ago. After nearly a year, the spontaneous vomiting, feeling like crap, being unable to eat and other issues were too much. Now I’m trying over the counter Berberine and changing what I can.
I wonder if berberine could be substituted for metformin and achieve the same result.
Suddenly, it seems public health officials and physicians are promoting Metformin as a treatment for all types of conditions and illnesses. Anytime I see such a thing, I get worried and start wondering why they want so many people to start taking the drug.
My trust in the health care industry at the moment is almost non-existent. I’m not sure why.

“Metformin and leucine can help with muscle recovery in persons with diabetes.”
Please don’t read more into this than it actually says. It is not a cure, or not close to a permanent improvement use drug for diabetes. Metformin does not modulate blood glucose or lipids but it does reduces EARLY atherosclerotic lesions. It doesn’t stop them. As time goes on, the hardening of the arteries and heart are part of the diabetic trip. It postpones the act, but eventually it is going to happen if the patient lasts long enough and heart failure becomes a player.

This is impossible.
You can’t use any drug for off label purposes. They told us so....
