if you could cure diabetes by drinking water then drug companies would bottle it. No. Water is good for you but not a cure

No that will not cure it. There is no way to cure type 1 or type 2 diabetes you can only treat them. Type 2 is easy to treat and keep under control, just make sure to take your meds , watch what you eat and exercise. You can eat some carbs and sugar just keep it under control Don't let diabetes take over your life you need to take over the diabetes by taking care of yourself. Good luck.

A gallon of water will NOT cure diabetes.
For someone your height you should be closer to 170 pounds by my charts…….You can try raw foods if you like but the food you eat is converted to lipids, proteins,and sugars regardless of the source your body can and will convert lipids, and proteins to sugar to maintain a blood sugar level
You cna help your self best by consulting with a good nutritionist and working closely with your doctor.

No it will not cure diabetes.that much water will flood your kidneys, and since it cannot process that much water you will start to retain and eventually stop eliminating toxins in your system therefore decrease urination and cause more problems.the most water you should drink is 8 8 ounce glasses a day.Drinking water is great, but too much, like anything else can harm you.

Personal experience, was drinking a gallon plus a day and started to overwork kidney and was retaining so much that I stopped urinating.

No, drinking water will not cure diabetes..A gallon of water per day at your weight is safe..the main thing with drinking to much water is flushing out potassium..something needed to make organs function properly..That’s why some diuretic pills that doctors give patients contain potassium..But if you think it’s to much water, eat a banana or potato every day.. both are loaded with potassium. Diabetes is a tough thing to deal with just try and eat right..And make sure to exercise daily you would be surprised the difference it can make in your glucose levels!! Also losing 10% of your total body weight can help..
Good luck..

No cure for Diabetes you can only manage Diabetes. Life style correction is what you need along with controled diet.

Not only will it not cure your diabetes, it is unsafe and could kill you by screwing up your electrolyte balance. Going to raw foods, or particular foods, won't help, although you will need to follow your physician's advice with respect to foods that contain sugars. By my reckoning, you are overweight by about 20 pounds, but again check with your physician. Bottom line: it's insulin shots and blood tests from here on out.

There is no cure for Diabetes and I think if drinking a gallon of water a day were a cure they would have already found that one by now.
