The University of Southern California has been doing mice and human cell trials on diabetes and have found that fasting can cure diabetes in mice and the individual human cells. The article in this URL: The ‘fast cure’ for diabetes tells how to get started if you should want to try the fasting method.

I would try to find an integrated medicine doctor for the yes or no decision.
