    I'm doing it now. Walking. Exercising. Eating less and healthier. You can totally reverse type 2 diabetes and the complications that come with it.

    I take cinnamon capsules every day which does help control sugar levels.

    Change diet & losing weight is not always cure for type 2 diabetes. I'm 6'0 185 and im diabetic ,I'm 55 and only weigh 20lbs more than when I was in high school ! I was diagnosed with type 2 over 15yrs ago . So if you have a family history get yourself checked !

    Done that. My recent lab shows my A1C to be 5.8. That's darn good. Change the diet and exercise, even mild exercise can have big benefits.

    Exactly right. Weight gain does not always lead to Diabetes. Genetics are a big factor.

    I read a fair amount of research on cinnamon and its benefits, be sure you are taking Ceylon cinnamon, not the Saigon or Vietnamese cinnamon(cassia). Here is link to a good synopsis of the difference and an explanation; http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=newtip&dbid=31

    A lot of people think you have to be overweight to be diabetic, my mother was diabetic and I got it ,whereas my sister who has been overweight her entire life is not ! And I exercise and watch what I eat and am a nonsmoker, so you never know !
