How Diabetes symptoms can be reversed



Trouble begins when over indulgence in food (requiring an over-production of insulin) either leads to failure of the pancreas or cell damage (caused by over-production of insulin) in-turn leading to insulin becoming ineffective. Unfortunately, once the process of converting food into energy breaks down, there is no way to repair it. However, diabetes symptoms can be reversed by keeping our blood sugar levels under control and adopting a healthier lifestyle.
