MANAGING DIABETES WITH NATURO-FOOD THERAPY
6. Naturo-Food Therapy stems from the unique gift of Nature – that the human body can cure itself provided we allow Nature to take its own course without hindering it by unhealthy eating and by unwise use of drugs and medicines which invariably have harmful side-effects.

The nutrient/antioxidant/fibre-rich natural diets mop up harmful free radicals and strengthen the body’s immune system, which (i) boosts the body’s ability to overcome virtually all kinds of diseases, (ii) increases the body’s resistance to infections and (iii) slows down the ageing process 7 It is a well established fact that diabetes is considered to be a chronic condition with no permanent cure in any system of medicine.

Taking the following precautions can cure, prevent or retard the progress of diabetic complications :-
