Why Byetta And Not Insulin

I am confused as to why doctors are pushing byetta when it can cause major problems with pancreas and also kidneys and maybe thyroid cancer (in mice) ? It seems to me I am better off using short term insulin and not dealing with all the other issues.

Many doctors today are only pushing drugs that are covered by insurance companies and nothing else, and I think it is because this is how doctor's make their money. If you even mention to them an alternative that works just as well or better, it's as if you're speaking another language, since it doesn't put any more money in their pocket.

There has been scientific evidence for a quite a while now, demonstrating how Diabetes type 2 is caused by an excess of fat in the bloodstream, which then causes unstable blood glucose levels, an over-production of insulin, and an over-working of the pancreas.

The simple approach that is suggested for reversing & curing the disease is to eat a very low fat diet that is high in "natural" sugar and moderate amounts of protein. This ideally comes from eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, with the occasional nuts and seeds.

I would recommend doing more research on the topic if you're interested. There's a lot of good information out on the web that doesn't get publicized in the media, most likely because it causes a loss of revenue to the diabetes research foundations and other useless organizations that need not be there. Sorry for the rant. I'm just fed up with the way our country handles health care.

I hope this helps! :)
