Diabetes?????

well my husband just got told that he has type 2 diabetes.....this is something that very much runs in his family.....but now he has to take a 500mg pill everyday for it and i heard that this can cause sexual problems???? i was just wondering if this is true and what you can do about it and if anyone has had this happen to them??? thanks so much

PaulaMarie,
It is highly Unlikely that he will have such a problem. They have a number of different medicines now and they can change his medicines if he does have a problem with it. I suggest that he continually checks his sugars for awhile and begin taking a multiple vitamin supplement. I did so and was able to cut a lot of the insulin that I was taking begin checking blood sugars at different times each day to see that he is not having high or low sugars at different times. Drop me a note if you ever have questions. I have been a diabetic since October 1966 (type 1). But I read and study a lot of different diabetic information and stay up with what is going on in research. Have a wonderful weekend.
Thanks,
Eds

The diabetes can lead to erectile dysfunction;-{ not the pill.

Sexual Problems and Diabetes

500 mg. of what?
Diabetes, if untreated, will definitely cause vascular problems, and therefore sexual problems.
Change everyone's diet now, and monitor or pack his lunches.
Exercise with him at least three days a week - six if he is overweight.
Any sugar-reducing drug can only help him, cause once the damage is done, it's hard to reverse - impotence is one of the first signs of heart disease.

Yes people with diabetes have problems with erections.

Look on the Internet about Cinnamon as a dietary supplement for type 2.

Hi Paula

Quick Action Plan for Diabetes


1. Nutrition is the key to getting rid of the cravings. Once you learn about nutrition (#6), learn about cleansing out the toxins in the body by doing a colon, liver, and kidney cleanse. You'll be on your way to a healthy life.

2. Keep in mind that the goal of diabetic treatment and self-care is to restore blood sugar levels close to normal and to correct related metabolic disorders. One of the best ways to accomplish this is by eating small, frequent meals throughout the day that emphasize fresh, organic foods that are low on the glycemic scale, such as raw and lightly steamed vegetables, low sugar whole fruits, nuts, seeds, whole grains and legumes, yams, wild fish, poultry, lean cuts of beef, bison meal lamb or veal.

3. Minimize or eliminate your intake of simple carbohydrates and all sugars, as well as tobacco and processed "junk foods." In addition, reduce your intake of alcohol and caffeine. Both alcohol and caffeine could be enjoyed on special occasions, rather than daily or even weekly habits.

4. Remain hydrated; drinking adequate quantities of pure water is essential for all aspects of your health. Must drink a gallon of water a day to maintain health. Your body is craving this much more than caffeine and sugar.

5. Engage in regular light exercise and stress reduction because they are keys to maintaining lower levels of blood sugar.

6. Consider supplementing with nutrients such as B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E, chromium, magnesium, potassium, essential fatty acids, CoQ10, alpha lipoic acid, and vanadium. Stabilized rice bran supplements can also be helpful.

7. Herbs such as astragalus, bitter melon, fenugreek, raw garlic (one of the best for blood pressure), ginseng, Gymnema sylvestre, and huerque can also provide significant benefits.

8. If you have already developed Type I or Type II diabetes, combine the above self-care natural cures with professional care from a holistically oriented physician or other alternative health care practitioner. Particularly useful professional care therapies for treating and preventing diabetes include chelation therapy, food allergy testing, parasite testing and if necessary, cleansing, oxygen therapy, and professional dietary and nutritional counseling. Ayurveda and traditional Chinese medicine can also be helpful.

9. Prevention, if you are pre-disposed and managing a diabetic condition, is a life-long commitment. By committing to the guidelines above, you can significantly improve your symptoms, and, if you suffer from Type II diabetes, quite possibly reverse them altogether. Implementing diet and lifestyle changes can help improve your energy levels, and your confidence in your ability to experience greater health.

Best of health to you

yes it does you dnt' want sex and sometimes the man can't get hard. its hard to deal with but you have to its life and his life.

Give it time.

Hi
Yes it may happen. Get well soon.

Sexual problems happen due to the vascular and nerve damage which are complications of untreated diabetes. The medicince is not the culprit.
If he changes his lifestyle and gets his blood sugar under control, with medication if necessary, he will not have these complications.

One of the side effects of diabetes medications and diabetes is can give males impotence, what I will suggest is that try to see if you can make some changes in your diet, also if he is strong enought get him into detox, (becarful with some diabetes can get worst), you should try to do something if he just got it, don't substimate the power of nature, alternative medicine is very succesful in this, we have very good success in our clinic with our patients, we give back quality life to diabetes patients.
