Diabetes treatment
with behavior
By Editor
Sweetness is required
and most wanted in life all the time. Everyone loves it. Its taste
is really good which can attract and stuck to anybody tasted it.
But how many people really know the bad side of it.

Mr. Adule Chotiwatchara
who gets used to sweetness and always tastes sweet knows later that
he has diabetes.
Mr. Adule told me "I
have suffered from diabetes for more than 20 years. I took more
medicines continuously. I stopped eating durian but I still had
rice. I ate when I was hungry. I really did weigh up to 85 kilograms
and my blood sugar was 180 mg/dL. I had to pay for prescription
over a thousand per month. They all were expensive pills and the
price was approximately a hundred a pill. I initially could not
control my blood sugar level so the doctor asked me for an injection.
I continued having more and more injections. One day, I could not
sleep at night so I got up in the dawn and got a chance to watch
Natural Therapy program on TV. I decided to call them and had to
wait the result for 3 days."
Had Known Balavi from
television show, Mr. Adule started to have a treatment at Balavi
Natural Health Center.
"At first, I
was so surprised because the doctor is very young (Dr. Korbkarn).
I thought that elder doctor could not even cure me of diabetes,
not to mention the young one. Ok, let's try. Dr. Korbkarn asked
me why I chose to have a treatment here. I just said I was afraid
of death. She asked me back why you did not want to die. I said
that is because of my son, who still was not successful. My son
already succeeds in his life that is when I can be in peace. Now
I am a wealthy man. If I die when my son still gets one-two thousand
a month as a salary, he definitely cannot live. The income is not
enough for him because he gets used to spend much more money. If
he was born and live in a slum, I will not worry about this. So
I cannot die now."
This is a characteristic
feature of Mr. Adule. He is determined to do it. Even his reason
of living is not a big deal; he has a huge effort to make himself
recover from this disease. He started to change his eating habit
first.
"I used to eat
everything but now I do not eat rice, flour, sugar, roots and hand
of banana. Rice means rice; flour means breads; sugar implies sweets,
candies, soft drinks etc.; roots means every type of potato or yam
root, chinese radish, including nuts. My blood sugar is from 120
up to 150 mg/dL when I ate a dish of fried nuts. A big size of nut
is more delicious than a small one, but it can easily lead your
blood sugar level high as well."
Mr. Adule knew about
this because he himself drew blood to check his sugar level everyday.
Therefore, he knew which diet causes his blood sugar level high
or low. The doctor specially looked after him in the beginning.
Eight months ago, he went to see the doctor every week and the doctor
did not check his blood. Instead, the doctor checked by looking
at his notebook which he wrote down what he eats each day, whether
he works out or not. According to blood sugar value test (HbAIC),
he got very high value up to 10.9 when he came to see us at first.
Then, he tried to control his blood sugar level and next the value
decreased to only 6.4. He did not get any diabetes injection and
he also took less medicines. We really feel satisfied with the result
of his blood sugar value. Plus, the problems about uncomfortable
with his body, knee pain and intervening disease state all disappeared.
This is a good beginning
Mr. Adule mentioned
an idea to us that to cure diabetes depends on a doctor 30% and
a patient 70% . If the patient does not follow the doctor's instruction,
he will not recover for sure. On the contrary, if the patient really
has a target to get well from this disease, he can definitely knock
over the illness. Many people wonder what diet is suit for diabetic
problem. Let's take a look what Mr. Adule tells us.
"Our stomach
is easily affected. So we should eat the food which is good for
our health, most delicious and also we like the most. Do not eat
junk food such as bread, soft drinks. These food is useless so why
we have to eat them. If we cannot eat junk food, we have to eat
meat and vegetables instead. I also have these foods as a meal but
I try to eat more vegetables than usual.
When I eat spicy green
papaya salad (Som Tam), Thai meat salad (Larb) and grilled beef
with Thai seasoning recipe (Nam Tok), I always ask a vendor to serve
me more vegetables. I also pay extra price for vegetables because
I really eat a huge amount of vegetables. Actually, I think to recover
from diabetes is not like a fast because I still can eat many delicious
foods such as steak,curry in sweet peanut sauce (Pha Naeng) and
stir-fried vegetables. Exceptionally, I cannot eat starch, sugar
and every type of fruit. That's all.
"Health is better
than wealth" everyone thinks like that so you should start taking
care yourself from now on. Do not let yourself and your beloved
person's future take a risk with your eating habit.
"Starting from
today and the bright future waiting for you"
