Is a Vegan Diet good for diabetes?

I have recently heard that a vegan diet would cure diabetes. Is there any evidence of this that can be found/ What percent of vegans are diabetic? I appreciate any input on this subject from those of you with information. Have a wonderful weekend and a fabulous LORD's DAY!

Thank you,

Diabetes and certain cancers are becoming realized medically as complicated fungal problems - so any food that's antifungal helps
Balanced diets are usually good for cetain health conditions. The key is the balance of the correct nutrients in the diet.



Unfortunatelly there is no real "cure" for diabetes yet. What you can do with the correct diet and exercise program, is to prevent complications, improve your sugar control and live a better life, with good quality, for a longer time.



Vegan diets are usually high on carbohydrates, but if you control tehm and also make sure youget protein from soy, and other beans, it might work well for you.



The most important to prevent or control diabetes is your intake of carbohydrates. The diet plans will help guide you to choose foods and combine them, but the key is your daily carb intake.



There are a couple of sites I would like to recommend for you:

www.nutrihand.com has a wellness center you can register for get your body analysis and start tracking what you eat for free. As iyou track your foods you will see all thier nutritional values. This way you can at least learn how much you are eating daily of all the nutrients.



Another good site is www.mendosa.com It provides a lot of good articles about everything related to diabetes



And a third one I would like to recommmend is www.pcrm.org

Their founder, a doctor really beleives VEGAN diets can have a strong affect in controlling diabetes. So read the articles there too.

I do a diet plan that has an absolutely brilliant vegetarian section with tons of choice, lots of the people who go to the same slimming club as me are diabetics and have found not only have they got their condition under control but have also been allowed to cut out a lot of their medication too by their doctors, I have recommended this eating plan to a few people I know with diabetes and after only a few weeks they are starting to feel much better too so maybe a vegan or vegetarian diet is the way forward for diabetes.
