Lifestyle the same before and after. Junk food, lots of sugar, lots of fat, no exercise, etc. She is overweight and has lots of health issues. She and her husband are currently trying a whole plant foods diet. They tried it once before after Dr. John Clark gave a series of talks at our church. Her neuropathy actually went away! But sadly, they "fell off the wagon" as she puts it but are now trying it again with more seriousness.
If I were a physician, I would have my patients test their blood sugar 1 and 2 hours after meals and randomly just to see what it was doing. No harm in that,

How would you want your diabetes treated if you found out you had it? Drugs? Insulin makes things worse! Most do not understand this about type-2 diabetes. The treatment is lifestyle. You friend is choosing death instead of life.

Of course not! Diet and exercise is the way to go! That's how I'm treating my prediabetes.
My friend, like so many others, knows a great deal more than she does as far as healthy lifestyle goes! They are working toward a better lifestyle at least.

I would not say she is choosing death, but failing to choose life quick enough. Like you says, she knows better, but food is a god to many. It's hard to break away. I know some who are indeed dying, know what the need to do, but refuse to even trial it for 30 days.

...but the doctors categorically said I did not have it and refused to accept it since I had a good diet and lifestyle and was very active and tests never ever showed any sign of diabetes.
...
Well the damage has been done and through diet and exercise I have 'reversed' many of the effects, Like APL, I'm confused by what you say. Unless it is reflecting on what I was saying before about those who claim they have a good diet and lifestyle.

Rick - you have left a lot of information out of your story. What were your blood sugar levels? What tests did your doctors do that showed you did NOT have diabetes? Obviously the simplest test is your blood sugar level. Was it never high when they tested it? No sugar in your urine? You mention you had all the symptoms of diabetes, "I had every one of them except for one found in women", but do not mention what they were which are often thirst and frequent urination, but then your urine sugar should have been high. Your doctors "tests didn't show it, then in their mind it did not exist" so what was there that they missed? If your tests were negative, where were they going to then treat? Are they going to give you blood sugar lowering drugs when your blood sugars are normal?
You then blame doctors for not treating your disease but you do understand standard treatment of type II diabetes can actually increase your cardiovascular risk, right? Have you read the package inserts for many of the drugs used to treat type II diabetes? Read the black box warnings. They may have done you a favor! What did you expect the doctors to do?
You then say you were eating a "healthy diet" but now you have "through diet and exercise I have 'reversed' many of the effects" when begs the question of what your diet was before which brought on the disease? What is different now?
Change subject - Dr. Wes Youngberg is NOT a physician. That may actually be the best part of his work! Well my A1C went over 12, and no insulin or pills had any real affect, and the feeling in my extremities went numb, and my eyesight deteriorated, and I began to have strokes and even worse. So it was extreme by any sense of the word...
