My father is a type 2 diabetic and has been on medication for a very long time. He, in fact, just had to have 3 stents inserted into his arteries due to the diabetes...he is 67 yrs old. He hates the medication because of the quick fluctuations in blood sugar level and thus has been trying some natural remedies over time. One of them is drinking ALOE based juice. Disgusting as it sounds, he can go without medication for 4-5 days when he drinks it.

Aloe Vera

Ok, so Aloe is not generally associated with blood sugar control. And yet it has helped mine! I have seen one recent statement in a report that aloe can help blood sugar, so I am not alone in concluding that it can help some people.

Aloe VeraWhat Aloe IS associated with is healing, and with immune system balance. And diabetes is often caused by, or aggravated by pancreatic deterioration, and the cause is frequently suspected to be autoimmune in origin. Further, diabetes reduces immune response, and Aloe is suspected to help it.http://www.naturaldiabetics.com/aloe-vera/
