*[[Almonds]] consumption is associated with ameliorations in [[obesity]], hyperlipidemia, [[Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)]], and [[hyperglycemia (High Blood Sugar)]]. Incorporation of almonds into a healthy diet has beneficial effects on adiposity, glycemic control, and the lipid profile, thereby potentially decreasing the risk for cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
* Nuts (especially Almonds and walnuts) have been shown to lower blood sugar by slowing the digestion of carbohydrates.
* [[Cinnamon]] may have a regulatory effect on blood sugar, making it especially beneficial for people with Type 2 diabetes.
* [[Chromium]] stabilizes both high and low blood sugar, promotes fat burning and improves cholesterol levels.* Studies on [[Ginkgo Biloba ]] have shown that the botanical herb's strong antioxidant properties can help patients with type 2 diabetes.
* Japanese Sweet Potato may Cure Diabetes
*[[Gymnema Sylvestre]] or Gurmar prevents glucose from getting into your bloodstream too quickly. (Unlike cinnamon, which helps pull sugar out of your blood stream).

* The conditions of diabetes, high [[cholesterol]] and [[fatigue]] have all been improved through the biological and nutritional mechanisms provided by routine consumption of pine pollen.
* [[Shilajit ]] can be used as treatment for diabetes, gallstones, kidney stones, heart disease, anemia, anxiety, ulcers, asthma, arthritis, epilepsy and jaundice.
* [[Mushrooms]] are low in carbohydrates and contain lean proteins, which make them an ideal low energy snack for diabetics.
* Maple syrup compounds help fight diabetes, [[cancer]] and bacterial illnesses.
* maqui berry has been shown to greatly increase insulin production levels in the body. Individuals with diabetes or pre-diabetes can eat maqui to increase insulin and suppress blood glucose levels, as well as prevent the development of new fat cells.
* [[Coffee ]] has been linked to prevention of Parkinson’s, [[Liver Cancer]] and type 2 diabetes.
* Different foods and substances had been observed to improve the cells' response to insulin and promote the production of more insulin in the body. Some of them are magnesium, ginseng, flax seed, chromium, cinnamon, alpha-linoic acid, bilberry and gingko biloba.
* Studies on animals observed that bilberry can significantly lower blood sugar levels and help people with type 2 diabetes.
* [[Resveratrol ]] (Resveratrol is a powerful protective anti-fungal compound found in the skin of red grapes) and grape seed polyphenols combine to prevent diabetes.
* A glass of wine a day helps prevent diabetes
* The flavonoid fisetin in [[strawberries]] helps protect the leaves and fruit from insects. In the human body, it has been shown to protect neurons and combat [[Alzheimer's Disease]]. It is also considered to be a weapon against [[Prostate Cancer]]. And now researchers have discovered it can fight diabetes.
* coconut [[Coconut]] and palm kernel oils naturally contained MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides). Metabolizing MCTs creates ketones. Recent research has shown that ketones help protect against [[Alzheimer's Disease]], [[Parkinson's Disease (PD)]], LS (Lou Gehrig's disease), Huntington's disease, Drug resistant epilepsy, Diabetes.
* Fats are a source of energy that does not raise blood glucose. For people on the diabetes spectrum, this is very important. Why ingest the carb and then require insulin to convert it to fat, when you can just eat the fat to begin with?
* people who consume more omega-3 fatty acids like those found in fish and flaxseeds are less likely to develop this metabolic disorder.
*[[Spinach]]: Popeye got it right with this nutrient rich vegetable. Spinach contains its own type of plant based steroids called phytoecdysteroids. Phytoecdysteroids are similar to insect molting hormones and have been shown to dramatically increase glucose metabolism.
* Marine Phytoplankton alleviate mineral deficiency in the bloodstream, thereby helping to restore normal glucose levels.
* The coffee research showed that one cup of coffee reduced diabetes risk by seven percent.
* Some preliminary research suggests that vinegar (both apple cider vinegar and other types) may benefit people with diabetes.
* Phytonutrients Naringenin, a molecule in [[beansgrapefruit]] regulate blood sugar and insulin production.* Naringenin, a molecule in grapefruits s that gives the fruit its bitter taste, can help to treat [[arteriosclerosis]], hyper-metabolism, and even diabetes.* auriculotherapy[[Auriculotherapy]], also called auricular therapy (applying pressure on various points on your outer ear) is helpfull to fight [[stress]], [[pain]], [[allergies]], [[High Blood Pressure]], [[insomnia]], excess weight, diabetes, [[Drug Abuse]],...* [[Camu camu ]] shows potential in the treatment of diabetes
* Spirulina for type2 diabetes : researchers found that those assigned to 12 weeks of spirulina supplementation experienced a significant reduction in blood-fat levels.
* [[Turmeric ]] is used for treating of diabetes.* fenugreek [[Fenugreek]] is known to help treat diabetes, lower blood sugar and bad [[cholesterol]] levels
* a high intake of omega-3s, the "good" fats found in cold water fish like salmon, can help prevent serious, chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and [[Heart Disease]].
* the flavenols in dark chocolate reduce the risk of insulin resistance, which comes as very good news to diabetics.
* Anthocyanins are potent antioxidants Found In Cherries and May Help Fight Diabetes.
* [[Beans ]] are loaded with all-important fiber, which slows the breakdown of carbohydrates into sugars in your bloodstream, assists your body’s insulin response to glucose and helps you burn fat faster. Phytonutrients in [[beans]] regulate blood sugar and insulin production.* [[Buckwheat ]] May Be Beneficial For Managing Diabetes.
* researchers found that of the three teas, the polysaccharides in black tea had the most glucose-inhibiting properties.
* Brown seaweed found remarkably effective at breaking down fat cells, treating diabetes.
