MODY is a rare form of diabetes which is different from both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and runs strongly in families. MODY is caused by a mutation (or change) in a single gene. If a parent has this gene mutation, any child they have, has a 50% chance of inheriting it from them. If a child does inherit the mutation they will generally go on to develop MODY before they’re 25, whatever their weight, lifestyle, ethnic group etc.

A growing body of concerning research indicates that conventional medicine's standard of care for type 2 diabetes, including synthetic insulin and oral anti-diabetic drugs, may actually increase morbidity and mortality. On the other hand, recently validated traditional approaches relying on plant-based medicines may greatly mitigate the global diabetes epidemic.

There are a couple of different pieces of advice I can give you that will make a huge difference in helping you control your blood sugar. Diabetes is a disease of choice. If we're talking about type 2 diabetes, a lot of doctors will tell you it's family history, a lot of doctors will blame your genetics. And one of the reasons we're seeing the popularity of the ketogenic diet emerge as possibly the best diet for diabetes - this diet works for people, and they are feeling better, feeling healthier, having more energy, losing weight, regulating their blood sugar as they cut back on carbs. Ketogenic is actually a step in the opposite direction from diabetes, whereas diabetes is a carbohydrate toxic diet. Remember, most diets in the United States are 60 to 80% carbohydrate, 20% protein, 10% fat, so it's the complete opposite of what it should be, but if you bring it to balance, it makes a huge difference in blood sugar and blood sugar regulation. Remember, one of the ways we regulate blood sugar is muscle mass. Muscles help your body utilize glucose and muscles help your insulin receptors work better. And so that might look like 10,000 steps a day, meaning making sure you're walking at least five miles a day and you might also want to think about incorporating some body weight activity, pushups, pull ups, squats, lunges, plank holds, jump ropes, burpees, body weight movements that will help your body build muscle tone without injuring yourself, because many diabetics are overweight, so doing too much heavy weight is already hard on their joints. So body weight activity is the best place to start for somebody who's overweight with Type 2 diabetes. Remember, grains promote elevation in blood sugar, they promote elevation and cortisol, which disrupts the way your insulin works.

Scientist have demonstrated for the first time that their peptide-hydrogel biomaterial prompts skin cells to 'crawl' toward one another, closing chronic, non-healing wounds often associated with diabetes, such as bed sores and foot ulcers.

Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney failure, and scientists have found that infusing just a small dose of a cytokine, thought to help cause that failure, can instead prevent or reverse it.

Mouse fathers under psychological stress were more likely to have offspring with high blood sugar compared to their unstressed counterparts. In a study, researchers link this difference to an epigenetic change in the stressed dad's sperm -- a change that they could prevent by blocking the father's stress hormones. The study adds to growing evidence that a male's life experience can be passed down through more than his genetic code alone.

Can a person be "cured" of Type 2 Diabetes? Dr. Sarah Hallberg provides compelling evidence that it can, and the solution is simpler than you might think. Dr. Sarah Hallberg is the Medical Director of the Medically Supervised Weight Loss Program at IU Health Arnett, a program she created. She is board certified in both obesity medicine and internal medicine and has a Master’s Degree in Exercise Physiology. She has recently created what is only the second non-surgical weight loss rotation in the country for medical students. Her program has consistently exceeded national benchmarks for weight loss, and has been highly successful in reversing diabetes and other metabolic diseases. Dr. Hallberg is also the co-author of www.fitteru.us, a blog about health and wellness.
