The Cure for Diabetes

by moveforward on June 16, 2009

There are millions of diabetes sufferers in the world. The individuals suffering from diabetes has been steadily increasing over the past few years. There are two types of diabetes, the first is genetic in nature, called Type I diabetes and the second one is called Type II or onset diabetes. In the first kind of diabetes, also called juvenile diabetes, the body attacks the cells in the pancreas that produces insulin. Insulin is the hormone required to process and regulate the amount of glucose in the body. The absence of this hormone makes the cell starve since the proper fuel for cell function, which is glucose, cannot be absorbed and used.
