Well..

1.Hope is NOT over for him

2.He needs to take his meds. No quitting.

3.He needs to start exercising. And in this case....slow and steady start.

He should start by walking for thirty minutes, then one hour a day.

4.He should eat his fruits and vegteables. Well well. No more soft drinks, red meat,bread, and fatty foods.

5.He needs to get inspiration from other people.


Here are some resources he can use.

DIABETES

Medical Definition

There are two major types of diabetes: juvenile-onset and maturity-onset.
The symptoms of juvenile-onset diabetes come on very dramatically and rapidly because the beta cells in the pancreas are producing little or no insulin. Insulin shots are required to manage juvenile-onset diabetes.
The symptoms of mature-onset diabetes appear more gradually, and can be treated by diet and tablets alone. Occasionally insulin injections may be necessary. In mature-onset diabetes, the beta cells in the pancreas still produce insulin, but it is the insulin receptors that become less sensitive to the insulin. Hence mature-onset diabetics have to control their blood sugar levels too.
Diabetics are three times more likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease than a normal individual, are less able to fight off infections and will heal much more slowly than non-diabetics. Allicin powder can offer a cascade of benefits to people suffering from diabetes.

Treatment
To keep your circulation fit and healthy take 360mg of allicin powder every day. Use the liquid, as detailed below, for treating minor wounds.

Testimonial
The author’s own experience
As the author of this book I have a unique experience with the production and application of allicin. I am also a diabetic of some 32 years standing so anything I can do to reduce the risks detailed above has to be good for me. Consequently I take alliicin capsules every day to help keep my blood pressure, cholesterol and circulation fit and healthy. Anyone who knows me will tell you that before the advent of allicin powder capsules, I used to take a popular garlic powder supplement and every year around October time I would get a real stinker of a cold. This would inevitably last at least 10 days as my immune system doesn’t function as well as a non-diabetic and my blood sugar levels would go haywire. Since starting allicin powder capsules several years ago I have not had ANY colds despite now having 2 young children at school! I can only put this down to allicin.
Diabetics, myself included, also tend to heal very slowly. I still have a scar from a minor burn I sustained when I was a teenager and every time I cut myself it seems to take ages to heal properly. However, recently I have started putting allicin powder onto plasters or bandages used to dress small cuts and grazes. A short time ago I got a nasty wood splinter in my thumbnail. I managed to remove it but immediately it started to swell up a little and became very painful. I immediately added just 300mg of allicin powder to a band-aid and dressed the wound. Literally within a few hours the pain and swelling had begun to reduce. The next day, I changed the dressing and within 3-4 days the wound had healed, the swelling had gone and it was not painful at all. Several days later, having stopped the treatment, my skin began to flake and peel away leaving a perfectly healed thumb – allicin really is great stuff for diabetics.

is your friend type 1 or type 2?

Is he taking insulin or tablets?

Diabetes is common in my family so please answer these 2 questions before I get back to you.

First things first, while on his meds the best thing he can do to prolong his life is to lose weight. Let him start a diabetic diet and exercise as though his life depends on it because it literarily does.
Secondly knowledge is power. He needs serious education on the disease and its complications, its mgt, lifestyle modifications etc. He needs to see an endocrinologist and a nutritionist. He's got a long journey ahead of him so goodluck to your friend.

he needs serious counseling on this issue its a very delicate one does he stay in lagos?

Oh God. It is lack of knowledge that's killing people, if only you knew you could be free, you would be excited about your future and not worry. I had an issue for 4 years and I'm fine now. I can help tell you how to get the product I used.
#I am serious okay.
You can drop your number if you want my help.

It may be possible to reverse type 2 diabetes if you lose weight and change your diet.

You will need to exercise and remove all sugary food from your diet. No coke, fruit juice, ice cream, sugar in tea, less alcohol.

Eat smaller portions of eba, amala and white rice and increase your vegetable intake including salads and eat less fat and fried foods.

Eat grilled fish and meat, beans.

Always take your medication as prescribed and get a blood sugar monitoring device.
