If you develop type-2 diabetes, you may be able to cure it by not eating any sugar for a few weeks. And, keep it off after, if you never eat sugar except with enough fiber. I.e., apples ok, donuts & froot loops not. That is good advice for all of us: there is never a good reason to give yourself type-2 diabetes.

For many people, cinnamon is a good temporary treatment for type-2 diabetes. But some people have a bad reaction to enough cinnamon, so start light.

Type 1 diabetes is much bigger trouble: you need to inject insulin, because your pancreas is damaged, probably forever.

Probably few Cubans have type-2 diabetes. It is a 1st-world problem; another name is Processed Food disease.
