Dr. Mahsheed Khajavi, M.D.'s Expert Contributions
Can you manage diabetes 2 without medication?
Absolutely. Type 2 DM is usually associated with obesity. The first thing to do, if you are overweight, is to start a healthy weight loss program and exercise regimen. Just losing a percentage of your total weight makes your body more sensitive to its own insulin. However, Metformin is an excellent first start as a medication. Part of the problem with Type 2 DM is that your liver is producing too much glucose. Metformin helps prevent this and it has a myriad of other benefits without any substantial risk at all. there are many ongoing studies regarding the use of metformin in people who are not diabetic and the preliminary results are promising. So, I think healthy eating, weight loss, exercise and metformin can be the best combination. READ MORE
