We should be promoting health and disease-prevention. Rather than making “fat pills” we should be helping people to maintain a healthy weight, and not become overweight and obese int he first place.

Surgeons removed 90% of my pancreas and this left me Type 2 diabetic. I was doing fine on pills until this past december my Endocrinologist decided to put me on Humulin R(about 15 units before meals) and and later on added Lantus(about 55 units 2x day) Insulins. In addition I’ve eaten healthier but I’ve gained about 20lbs. I really hate this and I want to get off insulin but doctors tell me that i had been using the pills (glyburide/metformin < and other variants of all these before that> and Actos) for too long and its not healthy for my liver. I’d prefer to not be on insulin dependency. I know there are stem cell studies and other research going on. But is there anything else I should be looking into ? Is insulin safe? The ingredients are horrific!
Has anyone had success with other methods???
I live in Arizona I’m a 44 year old male.
Thanks for your help.

What’s the best way to find a good doctor for a nursing mother, who will have more of a focus on diet and nutrition, morseo than a quick pharmeseutical solution?
(and I’m not knocking pharma, it has it’s place. But since there’s the nursing of a baby factor here, I’d rather find a doctor who’s first inclination isn’t a pharmeseutical approach, but instead a more natural one.)

Thanks.
