Is medication an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes?

Lowering blood glucose with medications does not remove the causes of type 2 diabetes—physical inactivity and excess weight from a calorie-rich, nutrient-poor diet. Excess body fat blocks insulin function and forces the pancreas to overproduce insulin. Over time, the overworked pancreas "poops out."

Giving drugs to force the already overworked and failing pancreas to work even harder only makes the insulin-producing cells die off faster. If you are still eating the same disease-causing diet, you will likely gain more weight, develop more cardiovascular disease, and eventually become insulin dependent. Medication has become the accepted treatment for diabetes—even though it's often the medications themselves that promote weight gain, increase appetite, and can make the individual more diabetic.

These medications also significantly increase the incidence of cancer at multiple sites. In addition to all these side effects, controlling blood glucose with drugs has not been shown to decrease the risk of death—in fact, it increases risk. The Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) study was conducted to determine whether lowering glucose to near-normal levels with drugs would decrease cardiovascular risk; the study was halted when the results showed that more medications to better control blood sugar actually increased the risk of death from all causes and from cardiovascular disease.

If you don't address the primary cause, a disease-causing diet, just adding more and more medications is futile.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
