Diabetes mellitus type 2 also known as adult-onset diabetes is a metabolic disorder that is characterized by high glucose levels (sugar) in the bloodstream.

In a normal functioning body the sugars, when entering the body, are taken up by the cells for storage. When this mechanism gets distorted, the insulin receptors (door locks) sitting on the individual cells of the body are becoming resistant against insulin (door key) and the storage rooms for sugar cannot be opened anymore. The “cell doors” stay closed and sugar in the blood stream is rising.
There is a lot of evidence, which supports the thesis that diabetes is a lifestyle disorder, which is reversible. Symptoms like excess thirst, frequent urination, and constant hunger do not have to limit one’s life.
Ideally type 2 diabetes, is manageable with increasing exercise and dietary modification, but often just medication is described to manage the pain and the symptoms.
Ignoring the signals from the body for too long can cause long-term complications like heart disease, strokes, diabetic retinopathy (eyesight is affected), kidney failure (which may require dialysis), and poor circulation of limbs leading to amputations.
But it is never too late for a change, if a change is wanted. In the Centro Quiropráctico Dénia we help people on the way to reverse their diabetes. Latest studies illustrated the positive effects of chiropractic care and diabetes patients. There is a connection between the spine, the nervous system and the blood sugar in the body. After one month of being on the program, the patient's glucose blood and urine levels normalized and remained stable.

Chiropractic care works by optimizing the neural connections throughout the body. With an enhanced brain-body connection, better coordination can take place and immunity and hormone function throughout the body will improve.para letra
