I have a question friends. My 66 yo dad was diagnosed with diabetes and im curious if its curable. I dont trust medical.
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
Some diabetes medications seem to do more harm than good. He is otherwise healthy. He did get 2 jabs and lost some weight after he stopped driking liquor. Os there anything he can do besides entering the medical world to treat/cure and getting on those scary meds? Thanks agead of time. I know this isnt the place but i yrust yall more than anywhere else. Thats crazy in and of itself 🤣
Not treating type 2 diabetes doesn't cause type 1, it just gets treated like type 1.
I didn't say cause. I said it can lead to type one. Once the beta cells of the pancreas are destroyed, the body can no longer produce insulin, which is basically what type 1 diabetes is.
The islet cells in the pancreas are rendered useless by an autoimmune cause in type 1. Type 2 diabetics still produce insulin but the body develops an inability to utilize the insulin. Type 1 diabetics can actually acquire insulin resistance like type 2, but I have never heard of a type 2 diabetic becoming type 1 unless they were misdiagnosed.
