My 12-year-old daughter has been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes; apart from insulin, what are the alternative treatment options available?
In Type 1 diabetes, where the body cannot produce insulin, insulin needs to be taken with the help of injections or insulin pumps. This insulin makes up for the natural insulin produced by the body and helps manage the blood glucose level. In the case of Type 1 diabetes, herbal products should not be used as there are no proven methods in modern medicine or alternative medicine to cure Type 1 diabetes. Before discontinuing or deciding on any treatment plan, it is more suitable if you consult the physician or health professional to choose the best course of action. You can focus on making a customised diet plan for her to help her manage blood sugar levels in the long run.
