"Natural Cures" Fills Void For Diabetes Treatment

By: Robert P. Tracy

Type 2 diabetics are some of the biggest consumers of alternative health supplements to control weight, blood sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure.

They're also big fans of Kevin Trudeau, the author of two books on "Natural Cures" for illnesses such as diabetes.

We talk with Type 2 diabetics every day, listen to their problems and hear them speak glowingly of Kevin Trudeau. They view him as something of a healthcare messiah, saving them from larcenous and unscrupulous pharmaceutical companies.

Regardless of your opinion of the author, his message has connected with millions of people (at last count, his books have sold 5 million copies and are still going strong).

Over and over again, diabetics tell us the reason they listen to Kevin Trudeau, often instead of their own doctor, is that they get little advice or help from their physician, beyond the standard 'You need to diet and exercise.'

When you've just been diagnosed with a potentially lethal disease, many patients are emotionally charged and panicky. Their doctors provide little support. So they turn to the Internet, seeking out advice from complete strangers.

This is more than an issue of poor bedside manners by many doctors. It also highlights a basic mistrust of prescribed medicines that can have tragic side effects unfortunately recognized long after the product has been on the market.

Type 2 diabetics don't get the attention they need, in a time of concern from their doctors, and they don't accept that man-made, synthesized prescription medicine is going to provide a diabetic treatment better than a wild, naturally growing substance.

While slow to change, modern medicine appears to be grudgingly accepting that ancient folk medicine may have some basis in science.

Several years ago, a primary provider of garcinia cambogia, a 'magic pumpkin' fruit from India with fabled weight loss benefits, was put to the test by researchers at Harvard, Georgetown and Creighton University Medical Centers. And guess what? Not only did the researchers find that it helps reduce fatty pounds (common in Type 2 diabetics), but also helped reduce blood sugar levels, cholesterol and blood pressure.

This is unique, but becoming more common. Recent reports in USA Today and other publications show that the large pharmaceutical companies are jumping on the "Natural" bandwagon, looking for herbal ingredients that can do as well or better than anything concocted in a laboratory.

It's a radical concept in the medical community. But it shouldn't be surprising. After all, one of the world's most commonly used and effective medicines is aspirin, a "natural cure" that comes from the bark of a willow tree. http://www.botgard.ucla.edu/html/botanytextbooks/economicbotany/Salix/index.html
