Cure for Diabetes!?


is it true that they found a new cure for diabetes (other than Herbal thing)? something that makes sense?
specially for type-1 diabetes?!

No, there is no cure for now except a pancreas transplant. (and the herbal thing is not for real) If there was a cure, your doctor would tell you right away.
There have been many, many claims just like the above answer and they are all not true. We discuss this at almost every diabetic ed class that I go to because there is always some new claim. (I go every month) Most of them are just money making schemes.

here's a quote and a link:

"In a discovery that has stunned even those behind it, scientists at a Toronto hospital say they have proof the body's nervous system helps trigger diabetes, opening the door to a potential near-cure of the disease that affects millions of Canadians.

Diabetic mice became healthy virtually overnight after researchers injected a substance to counteract the effect of malfunctioning pain neurons in the pancreas.

"I couldn't believe it," said Dr. Michael Salter, a pain expert at the Hospital for Sick Children and one of the scientists. "Mice with diabetes suddenly didn't have diabetes any more."

The researchers caution they have yet to confirm their findings in people, but say they expect results from human studies within a year or so. Any treatment that may emerge to help at least some patients would likely be years away from hitting the market."

I have not heard about a cure for diabetes type 1 other than a pancreas transplant as mentioned by other answers.

However, there is a new report about Type II where they do gastric bypass surgery and the diabetes disappears in days, long before weight loss.

Here is a link to the news report on Yahoo.....
