How Reverse Type 2 Diabetes?
The most important factor you need to have to reverse Type 2 diabetes is commitment. Type 2 diabetes is a condition caused by the inability of the body to get sugar inside the cells. Your pancreas manufactures insulin in adequate amounts, and that insulin is what is required to drive sugar into your body's cells, but your cells will not open their doors. So the sugar stays out in your bloodstream instead of going into the cells where you need it. As your cells don't get fed their sugar, your body makes more and more insulin because it is desperate to get the sugar inside the cell! Because your cells are resistant to it, your insulin levels keep rising in an effort to force the sugar out of the bloodstream into the cells. All this extra insulin is what causes weight gain.
