Dear Dr. Serrano,
Hello! I am a type ll diabetic and I am having problems regulating my blood sugar.
Everything seems to turn to sugar in my system and I am becoming unable to control my BG's even with Levemir insulin.
Do you have any advice about how to go about fixing this naturally?
Thanks for any help you can give me. My doctor is perplexed as well. He believes in using supplements/natural foods as well.
Thank you in advance.
R.F.

Dear R.F.,
I don't know what your diet is like or what kind of levels you are getting, but sugars levels are not perplexing; unless, you have other secondary problems or conditions. If you do have diabetes type two, then these suggestions will help you control it:
1. check for food allergies
2. no cheeses,no dairy, and only dairy to allow is organic butter; no grains, including rice, wheat, corn oats etc
3. no soy
4. no fruit juices of any kind, at all
5. only fruits allow avocados, papayas, grapefruit, tomatoes, prunes, and berries but with a protein combination
6. all nuts and vegetables are ok except peanuts
7. organic red meat, fish, fowl, seafood are ok
8. beans are ok, but must check for increase in sugars
9. sweet potatoes twice a week
10. water is the only choice for drinking
11. once your sugars are under control--and it is going to take you fourteen days-- then we start adding other foods, including cheese, etc.
Start checking your sugars an hour after eating and let us know.
I can discuss supplements after you make changes to your diet.
Dr. Eric Serrano, M.D.
