Type 2 Diabetes – You CAN Reverse It!

Well, as the title states, “Type 2 Diabetes – You CAN Reverse It!” is a true statement. I had read this in other places, heard lectures on this being a reality, and even got excited from previous stories of ones who had accomplished this… But none of these stood out to me more than when one of my clients who was previously diagnosed with type 2 diabetes came and told me last week that she is no longer diabetic!

Amazing right? As big as that sounds, do know this is definitely something that is possible. Type 2 diabetes can be controlled, prevented, and even reversed through diet, exercise, and through homeopathic nutritional supplements.

This is definitely not a one shoe fits all, but an individualized plan can be laid out for you after you have completed a holistic consult.

What is a holistic nutrition consult like?

I’m so honored and thankful that this client did not rest in despair, but was willing to be open, vulnerable, and disciplined to take control of her health. You too can as well, and that’s really the bottom line. When we receive a diagnosis, we are not then ultimately limited to a modified life. We have a great opportunity before us to exercise discipline, restraint, and perseverance to reverse something…and that’s pretty wonderful to me!

After posting my original article, I received the following feedback from the client mentioned above:

“The doctor told me that I technically had Type 2 Diabetes, because my A1C level was 6.6. He told me that he should technically put me on medication, but because I was so young, he didn’t want to do that. He believed that diet and exercise would reverse the disease. I had been working with Akeema for 2 1/2 months at that point. We became more serious with cutting back on sugars, working my body more, and eliminating bad salts. Although I was discouraged and didn’t feel like anything was happening, I went back to the doctor 3 months later, and the disease had, in fact, been reversed. My A1C level was a 6.4 (Pre-Diabetic). I was no longer in the “Red Zone”. I have a ways to go, but I will forever be grateful for Akeema. She coaches from a, “I’ve been there, too” place. She knows. She understands. She gets it!”
