Regarding diabetes: Adult type II diabetes is curable simply by losing weight, regardless of the type of diet that accomplishes this.
Adult type I diabetes (which is what this little girl apparently has) is not curable as far as we know. Vanadium and chromium may help, but it is likely that her pancreatic cells cannot produce enough insulin, and that this ability has been destroyed, often after a viral infection in susceptible individuals. I am oriented towards prevention myself even though I was classically trained in medicine. I would NOT expect alternative medicine to have any magic ways of dealing with this particular disease, and stress that insulin is absolutely necessary for this girl's survival and you must not take any chances with weird alternatives. Unfortunately, this disease will not leave her body. Tom Clayton, MD Dear Mark, Dr. Gerson, of the Gerson Therapy fame (clinic in Tijuana, and one to open in the USA soon) apparently cured Dr. Albert Schweitzer of adult type II diabetes with a complete Vegan diet. The adult type II diabetes is supposed to be incurable. I have heard and read of other cures based mainly on a nourishing diet and use of trace minerals like vanadium and chromium. As I have discovered, you have to look at ALL things (past, present, and future) that are affecting this 10 year old girl. It would help to get various alternative health practitioners a shot at diagnosis and prescription for healing. Be sure to include a Doctor of Oriental Medicine as they bring an understanding of the 5 Elements and how to get them into balance in the body that Western medicine ignores. If it is meant to be, someone, or perhaps herself, will find a regimen of action and change that will remove the disease from her body.
