Natural Health Alternatives

Welcome back as I promised ( Chip ). I am back with more information for your battle with Diabetes .Lets get started at the earliest stages , our children . I read about a 9 year old girl with Type I Diabetes. Her mother found herself caught up in whirlwind of shock , anger , and denial as she watched this incurable chronic illness move into there lives .
Her young daughter was becoming noticeably thinner , with dark circles under her eyes . Mom was suffering with what I call denial, she thought these changes were a result of her young daughters vigorous play ,at soccer and basketball camp . She noticed that her thirst was unquenchable , there was a small cut on her leg that would not heal,and her skin was a bit off color .Mom did not know the symptoms of ‘Diabetes’ at this time .She just dismissed these symptoms as no big deal .Then she watched her daughter lose nearly 20 pounds within three weeks time. Her daughter was wasting before her very eyes.At last a trip to the pediatricians seemed inevitable .To the doctor,the symptoms of diabetes was easily diagnosed .
Mom was devastated , but determined , hours was spent with nurse educators , pediatricians and with pediatric endocrinologists.A new world of Diabetes was introduced into thee lives , test strips, glucose monitors, insulin pens,syringes and lances . The little girl who very rarely visited an doctor, did not remember ever having a shot. Now she had to have several shots a day to control her glucose levels . Her younger sister was frightened herself ,watching her sisters illness progress. the emotional stability of the entire family was being threatened.
Now to my point of this article;no matter your age, race ,nationality ,this killer will reach you .Please keep a healthy diet to help prevent diabetes from taking over your life.You cannot start to early with healthy eating habits and exercise .Do you realize , just 30 minutes a day devoted to exercise would be a fantastic deterrent to fighting diabetes.It would not be to late for you to start eating healthier and exercising a bit more and taking vitamins and minerals . Excuses such as I am too old are not acceptable ,to myself or your loving family, you need to take action as soon as possible (prevention is the best cure.)God Bless all CHIP !
