Can a diabetic have too low blood sugar?
Monday, September 28th, 2009Diabetics take insulin to eliminate excess blood sugar which can kill them or cause serious health complications. But is it called diabetes when someone’s blood sugar is dangerously low? Or a different condition entirely? Are the complications of too low sugar as lethal as it being too high?
Correlation between sugar in fruits and diabetes?
Monday, September 28th, 2009Hi I’m trying to eat very healthy (Zero salt added to food/low amounts of oil in my diet). I am thinking about eating 1 large grapefruit everyday and making a habit of eating other fruits too. I have found that grapefruit as well as other fruits contain high amounts of sugar. My family has a history of type 2 diabetes and I’m wondering what amount is safe for consumption. Is there a correlation between eating grapefruits and other fruits and increasing chances of diabetes?
I’m male, 22, 6 ft 2, 175 lbs, 32 inch waist.
Here is where I found the nutrition info for grapefruit:

Based on this I will be consuming about 24g of sugar on grapefruit alone.
Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Monday, September 28th, 2009When I was younger I broke my nose. If the weather is dry I can get pretty bad nose bleeds and I want to get a vein cauterized so I don’t get them anymore. Which of these categories should I choose?

Are there alternative treatments to diabetes?
Monday, September 28th, 2009I am a type 2 diabetic. My doctor tells me that regardless of what I do as for as medication, diet, exercise, etc that my numbers will continue to get worst.
Are there diabetes treatments that work but are not accepted by the medical community in general? Please site your sources.
