Diabetes
Tough conditions like diabetes need expert conventional treatment but that said, with the help of homoeopathy type 2 diabetes can be moderated to such a degree that it requires little compromise in normal diet. A example management strategy is as follows:
a) Diet: your GP and dietician can advise a calorie intake and balanced diet that suits you as an individual.
b) Glycemic index: eat only slow release carbohydrates: rye bread, large flake porridge, wholemeal rice. Most supermarket breads , breakfast cereals and ready meals have too high glycemic index. Familiarise yourself with the glycemic load of what you eat.

c) Test your fasting glucose every morning and keep it below 7 mmol/ L. Don’t wait until you are prescribed medication before adopting this discipline.
d) Walk or perform equivalent exercise for at least an hour a day. Get out of breath.This will raise your metabolism and use the calories you eat.
e) Fast during week 2 of Lent and week 2 of Advent and on the Ember days. Use the cabbage soup diet.

The orthodox system does not recommend fasting, viewing it as simply a forlorn attempt to lose weight while risking fainting.
In fact fasting is a proven spiritual technique for ‘shocking’ the brain to enhance the level of consciousness, review the conscience and memory and retrain the craving centres which are driving the desire for high blood glucose levels.
f) Institute a daily mediation or prayer regime. This is the key to slowing down the mind so that unconscious persistent thoughts of fear and anger can be interrupted and switched off. These thoughts set the operational parameters of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland which in turn control the entire endocrine system. Those recursive thoughts which are driving the ‘flight of flight’ system must be aborted. The Rosary is an excellent prayer in this context.
g) Homoeopathic remedies as indicated for any eye problems, skin problems, depression, anxiety, moods etc and a constitutional course of an individual remedy.
h) Alcohol: give up alcohol. The issue is not the calories but rather its effect on the nervous system. It depresses the conscious allowing subconscious cravings and anxieties to drive up levels of adrenaline, blood glucose, choleresterol and blood pressure.
