Many people write to us asking about was to tackle diabetes in children, it is very difficult for us to give medical advice, so the more testimonials we can gather then better. Pressure from other people to follow the conventional way is a HUGE challenge, so finding like minded people for support is important. Wishing you and your son all the best on this remarkable journey. Dear Rebecca – Thank you so much for sharing your story.

After my son was diagnosed with diabetes last july at the age of 9 I too searched for ways to get him off insulin. After being home for 2 days watching his blood sugar jump from 80 to 500 from breakfast to lunch, I put him on a low carb high protein diet. He started on 20 units of insulin when we left the hospital (DKA) and because of the low carb diet we have him down to 3 units of insulin. So very close to getting him off insulin, his blood sugars began to change and the last month he averaged 250. The doctor said this was normal, but as his mother, I was not happy. So 11 days ago both him and I started on a raw diet in hopes of getting him off of the remainder of insulin. The only drawback to the diet he was on was that his cholesterol went up to 330! But in giving him 1 smoothie every day for 3 months, this reduced his cholesterol down to 290. I look forward to seeing what the raw diet does with his cholesterol. Our biggest struggle currently is that his body seems to be insulin resistant. So after reading the above blog, I am wondering if the meat is causing his body to be this way. I am hopeful of getting him off insulin using the raw diet. We are only taking it one day at a time. I agree with you that the hardest part is wanting to do the very best for your sons body, yet everyone seems to think you are crazy for now following "the norm".

For instance, here is an article (in fact, it’s two articles) with lots of medical citations that says high protein, high fat diet worsens diabetes or even causes diabetes.
